Twelve was holding hands with Ten. He was humming to himself quietly as they snuck their way under a table. They kept walking until they found a hole in the walls made by rats or gnomes. They didn't find any gnomes and instead just found themselves on the other side of a wall. This cycle of never ending wholes continued until they reached crowded area.
Twelve was in his own little world counting all the big feet above them humming when Ten began to panic. There was no way to sneak around anymore. The only way she could see out was above them. It was a little opening that would require them climbing over tables to get to. They would need to climb on a table to get up there but, chances were it would just be trouble for them.
Or maybe that's what she was saying.
Ten had gotten distracted seeing a big old lady get out of her seat leaving a perfect way to get on a table. He could hear them talking but, figured it was them wondering how to get up. He tried tugging on Ten's arm to get her attention. Instead she just kept panicking. So he did the first thing that came to mind.
He climbed up onto the table himself.
He stood there for a split second. Only one before a big old man saw him. His pig like eyes narrowed seeing the boy before he squealed loudly as if he hadn't been feed in a while. The kids heard it under the table. Ten had come out from under the table just in time to see Twelve get grabbed.
Twelve screamed loudly being picked up and dangled around like a piece of meat. Then he found himself being moved closer to this man's mouth. He screamed just as a bit of spit landed on his face. He was just about to be eaten when Six came up. She was on the table and bit the man's hand making him scream dropping the boy in his hands.
Six grabbed him pushing him behind her where Runaway quickly grabbed him. Ten screamed to run as she grabbed six. The three older kids rushed off as fast as she could screaming as each person they passed, each one more animalistic and bigger than the last reached out at them. Ten had her leg touched by a big finger at one point which made her panic mode.
Eventually they made it to the woke and jumped one by one. Six was safe first. Then ten. Yet, as soon as Runaway landed down twelve started sobbing as loud as ever.
He sobbed his little heart out before someone hugged him tight. Ten sighed whispering sweet words to her before Runaway joined in. The two were hugging him close when he felt a third pair of arms wrap around him and heard a voice that sounded like it belonged to death.
