Lake Slasher - part 2 (story/pic)

 Lake Slasher part 2


        His friends told him to wait by the boat.  They had been out for a day on the lake and decided to stop by the shore for a break.  Since there was no place to dock the canoe, one of them had to stay with the boats.  That lot fell on Eric.

     Eric laid back on the stern to catch some sun and a nice nap while his friends wandered on shore to explore a little.  They had been warned to avoid the southern shore of the lake, but never knew why.

     While basking in the summer sun, Eric could hear his friends's voices fading off into the woods.  He was enjoying the warm caress of the sun and the gentle rocking of the boat on the rippled waters.  

     After a short nap, he just laid there, eyes closed, soaking in the peace and serenity of his surroundings, not knowing he had been sited by one of the crazy killer rednecks who lived on the southern shore.

     The redneck had been waiting in the branches of a chestnut tree.  Eric's canoe just happened to be drifting slowly in his direction.

     Once the young vacationer was under his branch, the redneck leaped from the bough and drove his blade right through his gut.  The young man had no idea what just hit him.  He felt a hard pound against his stomach and heard a splash in the water.  

     Feeling a stinging burn in his gut, he looked down and saw a blade piercing him through, blood pouring quickly from the wound.  He was too stunned and tired to cry out and his dizzy head collapsed back down on the stern.
