"Jack?!" You shouted making you immediately drop your basket of sticks for the fire as you ran out onto the icy thin layer of the lake towards Mary, almost slipping a few times

"(Y/n)! Please help him!" Mary shouted in tears

"Jack!" She then shouted again as she got to her knees appearing over the water

"No no no no no" you repeated aloud in a panic as you grabbed Mary and faced her towards you

"Run back to the village, get your mom, get anyone, just go, hurry!" You demanded as Mary nodded wiping away some tears as she got to her feet and as fast as she could, ran her way off the lake and back to the village to get someone

You looked into the hole, into the dark depths of water in hopes to see any movements at all, nothing

"Jack!?" You then shouted over the cracked ice as you searched around the area to find anything that helps when you picked up the stick that was used to help save Mary

"If you can hear me, try finding the stick and hold onto it!" You shouted as you lowered the piece of wood into the cold dark water in hopes of a tug, again, nothing

"No.." you said softly to yourself as you gripped onto the stick more tightly lowering it down more into the water

"No, please.." you whispered as your eyes started filling with tears

Within a couple of minutes with no movement or anything, you forced yourself to pull the stick out from the water as you laid it next to you

"I can't lose you" you sobbed as you bent over your knees covering your face with your hands in tears just as you started to hear the distant sound of chattering as it grew closer and closer

Within a few minutes, the Villagers all stood around the lake, if not, on the lake either looking confused, worried or scared

Some of the men brung ropes, long sticks and tools to try and help after they were told the situation, the children? They stood there in front of their parents confused not knowing what is really happening at all

The men slowly made their way across the ice towards the hole with their equipment as you slowly stood up and backed away

For the next hour, they tried all they could to find him and bring him up out of the water but nothing

Some of the women and children left to go back towards the village along with Mary and her mom

Within a couple hours later, they gave up, no body was found, no proof of life, nothing, they just left

A couple days later after the incident, everyone came together to hold a ceremony for the loss of a child as everyone held candles that were lit and dancing around in the cold air as we all walked together out of the village and towards the lake

Some people volunteered to say some few touching words towards the loss child, if not, the family

In the end, we took a stone and carved out the name "Jackson Overland" as it were placed by the nearest tree closest to the lake and from there, it remains



And with that, a new life began..























"Jackson Overland"
"1694 - 1712"
