Prompt –
Finish the story begins with: “Diamond Jack had his hideout next to the Rattle Snake River”
“Diamond Jack had his hideout next to the Rattle Snake River.” The guide informed the lone land surveyor.
And who was this Diamond Jack?
He was the man who found the first lot of shiny and extremely pricey pebbles along the river bank.
Then why did he have to hide here?
Well, it is a long story of human greed, love and larceny. A tragic tale often associated with easily acquired large fortunes.
Why the area has not been explored till date?
Coz nobody knows about them.
So how do you know about it?
For, I am Diamond Jack reborn.
The guide grabbed the surveyor’s neck in the crook of his right elbow, drew a knife from his side and plunged it into his chest.
Gotta keep the location a secret!
Have to.
