I can't believe Piper had just died.
I didn't know her well but I just can't believe that she was dead. Never coming back to us, not like in books or movies.
She was so brave and willing to protect.
Paige walked up to me crying. I hugged her just letting her cry.
Sometimes when someone is sad they just need someone to cry on and then advice. I know this with Paige, she is kinda gentle, and innocent.
She gets up, dries her eyes, and walks into a random house.
We ran to the next block so that we could escape.
I walk over to Danyal, his face as pale as a sheet. The blood visibly drained from his face. This was not the childhood I wanted to give him.
"What was that thing?" Jack asks for his face a mask but I know he is shocked and sad. Piper was a friend to all of us.
"Skinner." a voice comes from my side. Danyal.
"What Danyal?" I ask.
"Skinner. It skins the bodies." Danyal answers with his face on the brink of tears.
My seven-year-old brother had just named a monster skinner because it skinned his friend Piper's body.
The blood fiscally drains from my face as I realize I can't protect him for much longer.
