"Godamn it!" I slap the steering wheel on hearing that sound, "I don't know if the spare is any good. Still it gives us a reason to have a look around, I guess if we don't make it to the library they'll have to get by without us."
Turning off the engine I get out and kick the tyre before going to the trunk and checking the spare.
"It'll have to do. Give me a few minutes to change this and then we'll go take a looksee."

While you change the tire Jordie looks out over the remains of the overgrown lot. What looks like could be a crumbled archway is near the front. Other rocks around the lot could have once been part of structures.
You finish changing the tire withou incident, for what it's worth, the spare doesn't look like it will last long.

I stand up from changing the wheel, stretch my back and shoot Jordie a wry smile, "It'll do for now but..."
Back stretched, I dust my hands off and look around.

As you finish putting the flat tire in the back of the car and look up you can swear you saw movement on the back side of the lot, perhaps behind a tree. It was low to the ground, and could be a dog or animal or something. Jordie was looking the other way.

"What was that?" I gesture in the direction of the tree, but I can tell from her questioning expression that Jordie hadn't see it.
I move a few feet onto the lot to see if I can get a better view

The lot is really huge, it's probably a good 200-300 yards from where you are standing. Jordi turns to look but neither you nor her see anything.

I stand on the edge of the lot, near the road, for several minutes. Long enough to light a cigarette and look at the time. There is little chance of making the library by five, so we might as well poke around here a bit.
I turn to Jordie, take a long drag on the Chesterfield then drop it to the ground and rub it out with my foot, "It was probably a dog or a neighbourhood cat. Still we may as well take a look at this place now we're here"

As you look towards the back, you notice there are a lot of trees at the back of the lot where someone or something could be hiding. As you drop your cigarette and stomp it out, you hear a tower clock in the distance ring 5 times.

"Is that coming from a church steeple? Or Is it 5 o'clock already?" Jordie cautiously pushes forward through the overgrown vegetation.
The other children cheered him on. His name voiced in a steadily rising pace, urging him to do it. “Am I really doing this?”, the young boy thought and struck his victim with a rock.

I listen to the clock chiming five, look at my watch and shake it, "Damn things out again".
Taking care to watch my footing amongst all the undergrowth and debris of the lot, I slowly make my way towards the trees at the back.

Jordie and you both started to walk into the grass when Jordie whispers to you, "I think I see what looks like brown cloth behind that tree," as she points off into the distance, you take a few steps off to your left into the deep grass and can see something that is obviously not part of the tree.
.
It moves and looks in your direction. It is definetely the hood of a brown robe. Then like a rabbit it is off running away from you and towards the fence at the back of the property.

"What the? Shit there it goes." I take off after it keeping it in sight hopefully so I can see where it goes.

You can see the figure from the distance, but he only had about 40 feet to go to get to the fence while you had 200 yards, means he gets there long before you even make it half way across the field.
.
You lose sight of him after he gets to the fence.

I come to a halt having lost sight of him, get a fix on the last place I saw him and head towards it.

You lost sight of him, but didn't see him go over the fence. It takes you a few minutes for the 2 of you to get across the field to the fence.
It is a tall wooden slat fence, it looks very old. The wood is old, weathered and rotted, the nails are rusted and the boards look like they aren't very well secured.

As Jordie catches up with Warren, slumping over and gasping for air, "Jesus! That fella can sure leg it!"
The other children cheered him on. His name voiced in a steadily rising pace, urging him to do it. “Am I really doing this?”, the young boy thought and struck his victim with a rock.
Re: IC: Ch 4b: Occult Shop (Warren & Jordie)
Jordie sees a small piece of brown cloth hanging from a rusted nail. As you reach for it, the two boards there easily swing up and away from you which is how he probably got out.
