Jack's POV
"Jack!" the little boy squeeled. He smiled brightly at me, such a naïve little child. I brought my claw up to my mouth, signalizing for him to be quiet.
"What are you doing here?" he whispered, sitting up in his bed. The room was dark, but I could see his blue eyes shine with happiness from the moonlight that streamed through the curtains. Oh, children. They're always so happy, aren't they?
I grinned, stalking towards him. "I'm here to play" I said, matter of factly. The boy clapped his hands, getting out of bed. But, just as he jumped out, I reached out my hand and I felt my claws bury themselves deep into his flesh.
He made no sound, the pain probably too overwhelming, as I grabbed his guts and pulled them out. Blood poured out of the boy's stomach, as well as his mouth. The fragile creature almost choked on his own blood, and Iproceeded to pull the rest of his guts out too.
Why not decorate a little..?

Celestia's POV
I made a disgusted face as the new reporter described a child murder that had happened last night. The sick psycho had emptied the poor boy's stomach and hung his guts all over the room like Christmas decoration, even made kind of animals out of it like balloons, before hanging up his body on the wall. That way the first thing his mother saw when she walked in was the sight of her dead son's body.
I felt sick, and eventually had to turn the news off. I ran a hand through my blue hair.
Yes, blue. Yolo.
"That's disgusting" my roomate, Diana, said. I nodded.
"I feel like I'm going to throw up" I admitted. Yeah, "Saw" were my favourite movies, but that didn't necessarily mean I wanted torture like that to happen in real life.
That is just inhumanly cruel.
"Anyways, let's shake this off and go to class. We have 10 minutes" Diana said, and we grabbed our bags, rushing out of our dorm and towards psychology class.

"Did you take any notes?" I asked as we walked out. Diana nodded. "Shit, I'll copy yours then" I sighed.
The disturbing image I had made in my mind, of a young boy being slaughtered by some crazy person, wouldn't leave my head. I couldn't shake the bad feeling off, a feeling that something was going to happen. Something connected to that boy.

Diana noticed I was a bit shaken up after the news, and suggested that going out tonight would be a good distraction. We had no school tomorrow, so at 7pm we were heading for a bar. We had our fake ID's with us, since we were both underaged (Diana was 20, I was turning 20 in December), but had a friend who was really good at faking..stuff.
"Here!" Diana stopped her car outside a building where we could hear classic rock music playing, and the sign over the door said "Heustan's Corner".
We walked in, the locale half full with ordinary people. I never liked clubs, with all the junkies and the horny teenagers. And, ugh, the music. Here, they were currently playing "In The Ghetto" by Elvis Presley, while they probably played some Ariana Grande shit at a nightclub the exact same time.
Anyways, we ordered a drink each, and sat down by the bar disk. "This will make you feel better" Diana assured me when we got our drinks, and I smiled.
"But, why are you so worried anyways? Did you know the kid or something?"
I shook my head, frowning a bit. Why did it really bother me that much? "I just have a bad feeling about something, 's all" I answered.
"About what?" Diana pressed. Usually I didn't like it when people stuck their nose in someone else's business, but I knew that Diana was just trying to look after me.
I shrugged. "I don't know. Just...something" I mumbled.
"You really don't need to worry about that murder, though. That was in Ohio, far away from us". Diana patted me on my shoulder and smiled a smile I returned.
Still, the feeling wouldn't leave.
