Maira skipped down the hallway humming and singing. her black hair swishing
The shadow whipping in tendril around her like vines

"Can't even shout. 
Can't even cry.
The Gentlemen are coming by.
Looking in windows,
knocking on doors...

Can't call to mom.
Can't say a word.
You're gonna die screaming
but you won't be heard."

"look what i found Big Brother." she said holding up a skull.
"Hehehee" she giggled quietly "its a skull wanna play rise of the dead with me??" she said looking up at him. holding the skull against her chest
