Instructions (good idea to read)

Throughout the following story, you will be given options as to which way the story will proceed. Click on one of the boxes at the bottom of each section to determine what will happen next. You cannot use the back button to return to the previous section, but you may use the refresh button to begin the story again. If click the refresh button, you'll have to scroll to the top of the page. For some reason, the browser displays much more blank red area than is needed. And your old scroll position is saved from before you hit refresh, so you wind up in the middle of the blank red space when the page is reloaded. I'm working on that. I've only tested with Chrome, so it might not work with other browsers.

I had intended to do more with this, but lost my patience. It actually comes to about 20 pages, counting the code that makes it go. I just don't have the energy to add any more.
