Idler Residence
456 Browne Manor
Hunt, Virginia
June 14, 1994
8:13 p.m.

 Sarah Matheson looked down at the piece of paper she 
held in her hand. In her flowing handwriting she had 
written down Cari's address, 456 Browne Manor. This 
was it.

She pulled her white jeep into the circle drive of 
the white three-story house. The blaring Green Day 
was practically making the house shake and she could 
hear voices inside shouting excitedly. Cari answered 
the door with a smile, "Sarah! I'm so glad you could 
make it! Come on in." 

As Sarah followed Cari down the main hall Cari told 
her of the change of plans, "I know I said we were 
going to order pizza but Natalie's boyfriend is 
like, *great* at barbecue so we're having a cookout 
instead, isn't that neat?"

Sarah nervously shifted her mini-backpack purse on 
her shoulders, "Um, do you have any gardenburgers?"

Cari's face light up as she pointed at Sarah, "Oh 
that's right! You're one of those heart people! I 
think we might, my mom is going through a vegetarian 
fad right now. Follow me and I'll see if I can find 
one."

Cari led Sarah through the living room, which was 
full of people from school playing "I Never". Sarah 
hated that game. Once they got to the kitchen Cari 
nearly disappeared into the industrial-sized 
refrigerator.

Cari yelled, "Found one!" She handed Sarah the 
plastic wrapped soyburger. "Here, just go out through 
the solarium and onto the patio and give this to the 
guy with the kiss the cook apron on. Tom'll cook it 
just for you."

Sarah made her way through the crowds to the patio. 
There were Chinese lanterns strung outside and 
someone had a boombox out and those who weren't at 
the picnic tables eating, were dancing. She found 
Tom and gave him the soyburger. 

Tom creased his brow slightly, "You veg or 
something?"

Sarah nodded, "Yeah."

Tom smiled, "Ok, I'll have this ready for you in a 
minute. You want a beer or something?" he said 
gesturing toward the mountain of six-packs a couple 
feet away from the grill.

Sarah looked down at the top of her hand which hand a 
heart drawn on it, she shook her head and said, "No 
thanks, I think I'll just have water."

Tom laughed, "Oh god, no meat, no beer, you're just 
the life of the party!"

Sarah made an attempt to smile and then quickly sat 
down at a picnic table and let the inane chatter of 
her classmates' wash over her.

After eating her slightly burnt gardenburger Sarah 
decided to take 
a walk. The Ilders had a huge piece of property, 
which backed up against the woods. She bet that she 
could see the stars much better from the woods then 
she ever would from her dad's house in D.C. She 
walked across the grass and into the woods. Sarah sat 
down on a fallen tree and began to gaze upward trying 
to find her favorite constellation, Virgo. 

It wasn't officially summer yet so if she faced south 
and looked southwest of Leo she should be able to see 
Virgo. This story of Virgo is this, Astraea was the 
goddess of justice and she moved from town to town in 
the ancient times. Astraea hoped to find peace 
somewhere. Instead everywhere she went there was only 
unhappiness, so Astraea went to live in the heavens. 
With her she carried a stalk of wheat which broke and 
scattered grains across the sky. These grains of 
wheat became stars. Astraea is also known as the 
Maiden or Virgo. Legend is that only people who love 
peace and justice can see the stars of Virgo. 

The sudden snap of a twig behind her broke Sarah from 
her reverie, she turned around and gasped in horror 
at what she saw.

Over the music no one heard her screams.
