"Everybody quiet!" Asher hissed all of a sudden. He froze and tilted his head, listening very carefully. He sensed another presence in the room, something unseen, a faint but distinctly odd smell. His eyes swept the room but detected nothing. Then, the faint squeak of pressure on linoleum tile. He whipped his head around, but saw nothing but hospital equipment. Squinting didn't seem to change his perception, but…
He sniffed. There was definitely something there near the wall by the door, just a few feet away from where Ray was sitting. Asher made eye-contact with him, then looked to the space where he thought he sensed the… thing, and then back, eyeing the other boy's makeshift weapon. Slowly he side-stepped to the small table beside Cassy's bed, and in one swift motion snatched the glass of water from it and hurled it at the empty space. The plastic cup bounced off of some invisible object, spilling its contents which ran down said object, giving it a phantasmal, watery outline. The creature let out a blood-curling shriek, enraged at its discovery, and lunged toward its assailant: Asher.
