Finally, the opening lead to a room. The shuffling was so close.. I turned the candle, surveying the room. It was large, made of dirt. A basement. I stopped abruptly. My heart dropped, and I felt the heat leave my face. A child, just slightly shorter than I was, walked into the corner, bumping it, and continued the disturbed motion. I would have asked "Hello?" but my lips were sewn shut. All I did was stare in terror, as the child, a girl, continued to bang against the wall. I heard whispers, but they were not coming from her..... Black shapes moved at the edge of my vision, I stared ahead at the girl. A strange intuition told me to not look away. The child began to slam harder against the wall, breaking into sobs.
"Love me love....." She cried, her voice mixed with different tones. She stopped hitting the wall, as if finally sensing my presence. She looked over at me softly, her dark eyes sending shivers down my spine. They were dark red with cat-slit pupils. The whispers were getting so loud, I could almost make them out. The girl smiled and began to walk toward me, each step making the figures move faster. The girls face shifted in different expressions, none lasting more than a second. She stood directly in front of me. Just arms length...
Stay away from her.
I want to go home!
Its so dark...I can't see...
Look what she did to me...
W e c a n' t leave..Marz is trouble...... The whispers were angry shouts in my ears. They want me to run.

Hell, I wanted to run, but I couldn't. My feet were planted, and my eyes stayed on the girl, with her strange shifting face.
"Nobody ever stays.. Have you ever had your heart broken?" I was surprised by how mixed the girl's voice was. I couldn't speak so I shook my head.
"No?.." I nodded. I have no idea. I'm as clueless as you.
"I do...T hey AlwaYs try tO leave..," She made sobbing sounds, but her face morphed into black slime like shapes. Her eyes were black holes, her chest was an empty void where her heart should have been. This is no normal girl..
I felt my legs shake. I should of stayed in the bedroom. I can't MOVE!
