The graveyard seemed empty. Daniel was reluctant to open the gate.

His sister, Wanda, chided, "Open it up, ninny. You're the one who wanted to see the Indian's grave. He died over one hundred years ago. He can't hurt us."

"I know, but the story goes that he killed nine people."

Grabbing Daniel's hand, Wanda said, "I'll go with you."

They approached a gravestone that said, 'Here lies Chaska...A bad man.'

A shadowy figure rose from behind the stone and said, "What's up Kemo Sabe?"

The two kids screamed and sprinted away. The groundskeeper chuckled, thinking, this never gets old.
