The Little Soldiers

“I have to say I don’t think the bloody lake is just a nickname because of the red color”. Jorge said. I shook my head. “I don’t think it is either”. I said as we both stared down at the dead body. After the death of his parents JC Walkman moved back to his birth place.Waterville,Oregon. Home of the otters, an old military factory, and disappearing, dying residents whose cops turn a blind eye to.  After moving to Waterville JC reunites with his cousin and makes new friends. Getting closer to his family JC starts learning more and more about his parents.  Just as things are looking to turn up for JC  one of his teammates on the football team comes up missing and then later his body turns up.  Then comes the return of the old military factory.  More and more people start turning up missing. Things are becoming weird and JC and his group start uncovering more and more about their families and some of the adults whom they could go to.  All seeming to be involved in the old military factory. Its purpose of returning? The mayor turned it into a flour factory to bring more revenue into Waterville. With the more the group is uncovering especially with JC parents the more danger the groups seems to find themselves in. The appearance of the factory owner, unknown people showing up, deaths that were unrecorded, missing people turning up different, things involving some of their parents whether it be good or bad. What truly is going on in Waterville,Oregon is it a simple case of a serial killer that needs to be found or perhaps something more sinister? Whatever it is JC and his friends will uncover all of it whether they live or die trying.  “Sometimes, as the old people say, they are left better covered up”. JC’s grandfather said.   “Are they really? Especially if it includes your very own children”? JC replied. “As Shakespeare says by the pricking of my thumbs something wicked comes this way”. “Only it’s not by the pricking of my thumbs pa by the raising of the hairs of my neck something wicked comes this way”.
