"It's your imagination." Prudence took Samantha by the shoulders again. "Let's sit down and talk. I'd like to hear a story before Reverend Crane comes back."
"I'm not imagining anything. Come on, we'll jump on it at the same time." Prudence tried to protest, but Samantha put a hand over her mouth. "Please, try it. For me."
They put their arms around each other and Samantha counted down from three. "Jump!" she commanded. They jumped into the air as one, coming down on the brick at the same time. To their surprise, the brick gave way, creating a gaping hole in the floor. Samantha and Prudence hung in the air for a moment and then plunged through the hole.
Samantha and Prudence clung to each other as they fell, landing with a splash in water.
