»Broke Down«







IT only took a quarter tank to our destination. Leaving the place with a half tank and a boat left us puzzled later on when it shot down to empty...
Still driving, the car jerking and slow coming to a complete stop at a rest bay 90kms out of town.

As we sat there waiting for our family which I've rung earlier just before the misshap to bring fuel, it started getting dark.
The only sounds in the night was the buzzing of mozzies in our ear.

Half an hour past and as we sat in the car with our windows half down we saw a strange dark figure crossing the road then footsteps walking through gravel coming close to the car. As i tried to focus on what i actully saw, it was gone...
At that same moment when all was quiet a noise trickled on the car as if a seed dropped from a tree onto the roof and rolled down,
but the tree's that surrounded us were roughly 8/9mtrs away from the car...
Feeling uneasy I wound the windows up and locked the door hopefully just thinking in my mind i was obviously being paranoid!...

10mins later i saw a light in the distance coming up the highway, "All Right!" i said to myself. The family pulled out a jerrycan with fuel and filled the car, I then rushed to the fuel light and was happy to see that the line hit half tank again!
Saying thank you and letting them know how much I appreciate what they have done, I felt as if nothing could go wrong.

As we drove off, for some odd reason the uneased feeling came back again, and it felt like I needed to look in the revision mirror. At the same time just looking up it was as if I saw a hand sliding back into the boat... Thinking to myself, "yes, i'm tired and need sleep" I thought nothing of it.

So I drove all the way into town and dropped off the boat, while talking it off the towbar, and as it was night I had to use a torch.
Then something didn't feel right! I slowly torched the back of the car and as I looked closer what I saw made a slight shiver roll down my spine...
On the back of the car was hand and foot prints which actually looked like someone walked on the car!, Exept this was not of the normal size. It was huge!

Being so tired I coudn't be botherd, so I drove back home...
Yet it was fun not knowing what exactly that was, and not kwowing? well it makes a great story...
