Story starter!
The journey had
gone well so far. The huskies barked encouragement to each other, pulling
together, straining against the weight behind them. The edge of the lake was in
sight, one hundred metres away. He muttered a prayer to himself, begging for
the ice to take the weight of the sled. Ninety metres. He shivered as the icy
wind whipped against his red-raw cheeks and snow-encrusted beard. Eighty
metres. They would reach the land soon.
It was then that he
heard it. CRACK…The sled shuddered. Seventy metres.
CRACK… He could see
the water through the ice. CRACK… The ground beneath him started to shatter…
