I'm terrible at writing stories. unless it comes to me...i kind of had to struggle with this one. but i wanted a story to go with these pictures instead of some description!
i decided on a whim the other day that i was going to take a long walk. i snatched my camera up and headed out. i walked for what felt like hours, until i was sure i was deep into the woods, farther than i had ever walked before. even though i wasn't finding very many picture opportunities this time around, i just kept walking. so when i was thinking of turning around, all of a sudden i noticed this slight fog up a head and i was glad i hadn't turned around.
i kept walking forward and eventually stepped off the beaten path. i was skeptical at first since i was alone but i decided to take a chance. i kept walking and through the fog i could vaguely see this thick, overgrown tree. i was puzzled at first because i thought i saw some bright colors. i blinked a few times and squinted to see closer. as i crept closer through the fog, i saw that the bright colors were some type of ornaments. and at the bottom of the tree was some sort of bowl. like a witch's cauldron. i got an eerie feeling but i snapped a picture and edged a bit closer. my curiosity was getting the better of me.
i walked up to the three "ornaments" and saw that they were actually colored apples. i reached my hand out to touch them, thinking that they coloring was just paint. i tried to peel some of the paint off and instead i poked into the apple. the coloring was real and the apples were hanging by some type of string. which i instantly figured was a spiderweb when i went to gently pull at the apple, and it fell into my hand. i snatched all three and ran like hell.
when i got home i felt this incredible urge to take a bite out of the blue apple. they weren't any bigger than a plum and i found the pink ones disgusting without even trying them. because part of me knew it was a bad idea to take a bite, and i knew it probably wasn't edible, i just took a small bite. i felt kind of dizzy and the room was spinning quickly. i hit the floor before i could even say a word and i awoke to find that it was a few hours later. i realized the apple was poisonous and had i eaten the entire apple i would have died. since i had taken such a small bite there hadn't been enough poison to actually harm me.
