Finish-a-thon Unfinished

I did not finish my finish-a-thon story. But if not for the finish-a-thon, I wouldn't even have started it, so I think I am still ahead. And I did start it, so, as per the rules of the finish-a-thon, I am posting a (thousand-word) portion of what I did write. Since it so happens that the first scene is just over a thousand words, the first scene is what you are getting.

I don't know what the title of the story is, yet.
