It wafted through the air,

Ash stained my hair,

Leaving grey dust on the floor,

The room was filled with gore,

A horrid stench coming from the remains,

Though it had a certain sweetness,

Quieting the voices and constant muttering in my head,

I looked at my next victim,

Teid up, bloodied and broken

cowering in the corner,

Who was soon to be dead
