On a winter day, a boy was walking at night while it was raining. Holding his darkish blue umbrella, he saw a strange being pass across the street. He thought it was his imagination, then he kept walking and ignored the thing. He walked for some steps, then the rain stopped pouring from the sky. He looked up and then started to close his umbrella, but as he closes it, he notices something strange beside his leg. He decided to pick it up, and it was a sand clock.
