The man walked home in the cold, wind biting into his tan coat, chilling his arms. The wind whispered to him softly, in the voice of a sweet girl.
"Do you know the muffin man
The muffin man
The muffin man?"
He saw a shadow stumbling towards him and the sweet voice continued, her bright blue eyes shining through the dark veil of black hair. The familiar voice finished.
"Do you know the muffin man
Who lives on Drury Lane?"
The girl, perhaps 12, stopped singing, and stared at him, the only motion being the wind that blew her black mane into her face.
"Do you know the Muffin man?" She asked.
The man was trembling from the cold and the icy glare.
"I have not."
The girls mouth opened into an 'o' for a moment before she pursed them. "You know, mister, it's not very polite to lie."
The street was stained red as the girl placed an innocent finger to her lips.
"Guess you were the Muffin man
The muffin man
The muffin man
Guess you were the Muffin Man
Who lives on Drury Lane."

A/N- Shoutout to Sky-Fallout whose story the Five Demons sorts kinda inspired this. Sky, if you read this, thanks for being awesome and sadist. I read Yui's (correct me if I'm wrong) POV and it had me thinking of the muffin man and voilà! And for everyone else, go check out Five Demons, and give Sky a follow!!
Oh and VI-fallout will forever be my ultimate inspiration, conspirator, and my support team! Love both of you!
