Jack's POV

I felt relief, pure bliss with the silence that followed. They never speak when I bring the blade to my dark, cursed flesh. They tell me how evil I am when I'm safe, they feed off of my feelings of comfort, it's only when I risk my life that they shut up, no one listens when I ask them to stop. Only the blade and the black blood can silence every horrid demon in my head. If I was human, I would've died ages ago due to blood loss and lack of regeneration, but to every other being under this roof, I'm still a demon fill creature out to kill for sport and feast endlessly. I hate people sometimes, but I keep that to myself.

3rd POV

At this point in the night, Eyeless was sitting in the blood covered bath, painting little lonely figures on the tiled wall. Just him and his temporary silence.
Upstairs however, Toby was terrified, hiding again. A small girl in a pink gown was looking around the room, she sang to herself what sounded to be a lullaby. The ticcing male didn't like the blood the seemed to endlessly drip from her body as she spun around, entertaining herself with a ratty looking bear stuffy. Unfortunately, Toby's body fail to cooperate with him and a tic caused a loud crack to ring out from under the bed. The child froze in place, slowly turning towards the bed, Toby stayed as silent as possible. She approached the bed on her tippy toes then climbed onto it. If Eyeless was in the opposite corner of the room, he would be able to hear Toby's heart ponding in his chest, the room went silent and the movement on the bed ceased.
  Toby didn't dare to move, that was until he felt an odd presence beside him in the hiding spot. The child was laying there, right beside Toby, he didn't even see her crawl under the bed! He quickly, and surprisingly swiftly, pushed himself out from under the bed, standing with his hatchets at the ready as the little girl crawled out soon enough. "Yay! I won the hide and seek game! Shall we play again mister hatchet?" She cheeked gently, dusting her gown off then looking to Toby. Still in panic, the male failed to relax upon seeing the little girl float, "S-Stay Ba-ac-ck!" He warned as she came to a halt, "Please don't yell mister hatchet, I only want to play with you."
  At this point Toby was shaking badly with fear, he want to be left alone but this young ghost girl simply wanted to play. "I-If I pl-lay with y-you, wil-l yo-ou l-leave aft-ter?" He struggled out, hoping she understood clearly, "YAY! Let's play with Mr. Eyeless too! He's usually in the kitchen around this time, but only I know that so shhhh. Don't tell anyone." Regardless to her frightening looks, she's just a child. Sweet, silly, and just as loveable as any other child as bright as her.

<(If you've read this far, I thank you greatly. With each new chapter I get less reads, it's kinda sad but I figure people prefer completed stories. Please let me now if you'd prefer to read chapter by chapter, or for me to just post the whole story at once.
  It would mean a lot if you guys could leave a comment, but for now, have a better time!)>
