The Curse of the Towne Motel

Grudgingly, you begin making your way through the towering trees and underbrush that encircle the perimeter of the house. Suddenly feel something grab your ankle and yank you forcefully into the air and pull you higher and higher. Finally, the upward ascent ends abruptly and you find yourself swinging from a rope tied tightly around your ankle, dangling high among the treetops. Twising your neck around, you glance down while your stomach churns as you take note of how far you are from the forest floor. It must be at least...what, 30 feet maybe? Too far to fall and have a decent chance of living to tell about it. So what are your options?, you try to think straight as the blood rushes to fill the capillaries in your head. The branch holding you up is starting to creak and bend...better make a decision, and quick!
