Totem Of The Woods

Casca Zahara is trying to read her book in the peace of her own home, only for her peace to be disrupted by the constant sound of whistling. Driven crazy by the annoying sound, Casca looks over her balcony to see the source of the disturbance; Brandon Cruz. Brandon is Casca’s gardener, simply whistling a tune whilst watering the plants. Brandon hears his name called from the balcony and looks up. He gets met with a huge splash of water thrown at his face by Casca before screaming at him to stop whistling.
Pissed off by Casca’s rude behaviour, Brandon lets out his anger by kicking a stone on the ground, only in doing so does he discover something on the floor. A wooden totem that seems to glow from a simple touch. Brandon picks it up, inspecting the totem as it shimmers a glowing light. He looks around and realises the world around him is frozen in place before the totem shimmers once again on his command, resuming the world’s time.
With the power to freeze time in the palm of his hands, Brandon has some pent-up frustration against the housewife that’s shamed him, plotting something devious with Casca being none the wiser.
