The moon's reflection in the small pond was like a large pearl, silvery white and perfect. The brother and sister threw rocks and caused the image to waver in the ripples of the splash. Haji had just reached his 12th year and his sister Pragna was two years younger than he. They were as close as any brother and sister could be. They loved to come out at night and sit by the pond behind their hut. Hearing the frogs and crickets sing to Lord Moon. Haji was about to say something when a sound behind him caught his attention. He stood and gazed across the high grass to the edge of the jungle just a stones throw away. A loud crash broke the night and the water birds sleeping around the pond rose into the night sky. Haji held his sister and prayed to the Devas. He could see it's red eyes now. Then he held his hand over his sister's eyes and prayed
