It started as a song for little children.
It used to so popular but no one, expect one, knew the background of the song.
She tried warning her friends, but they just laughed.
The meaning of this song was plague and little kids would sing it when they got the plague.
At one sleepover with her friends, her friends asked Alexia, "Alexia, play ring around the rosy."
"Ok." The robot replied.
"Ring around the rosie. Ring around the rosie. Pocket full of posies. Ashes, ashes. We all fall down." The song sung and her friends sung along.
"Alexia, stop." The girl commanded.
"Aww, c'mon! You afraid?" One of her friends asked.
"You are going to awake it!" The girl hissed.
"Whats it?" Another friend asked.
"The demons! Legend says the demons are the children who suffered from the plague." The girl spoke.
CRASH!
Suddenly, the power turned off.
"Ring around the rosie. What do you suppose we can do to fight the darkness in which we drown? Ring around the rosie. This evil thing, it knows me. Lost ghosts surround me. I can't fall down. Ring around the rosie. Lost and oh so lonely. Left to lie, we're all going to die." Alexia sung.
"Alexia?" A friend asked.
"How? The power went out....." The girl trailed off.
"You were right!" Another friend said.
"I always am." The girl's voice went deeper, almost demon like, "She warned you. You didnt listen. You must pay!"
The air started to full with screams of the friends and the girl.
Don't sing Ring Around The Rosies.
