Based on the poem Girls and Boys Come Out to Play. The pied piper was defeated years ago after decimating an entire village. Only Grandpa was able to resist the song and defeat him, back when he was young. That's actually how he met Grandma. But now a new piper with a newer, stronger song is playing, and the village doesn't know what to do. Grandpa is too old to fight, which leaves his granddaughter. She is showing signs of being immune to the tune.

Elliot's partner was his whole world, but after Allan's death, his ghost haunts Elliot's dreams. Everyone tells Elliot to move on, but he isn't sure he can. ***** It's been a year since the love of Elliot's life, Allan, passed away. Everyone thinks he should have recovered after that much time, but Allan still haunts Elliot every night. He struggles to maintain relationships with his family, and despite a coworkers interest he can't summon up the courage to date. Elliot is living for the past, because to live for the present means he'll have to live with a hole in his heart. But the question Elliot has to face chases him through his monotonous days: is mourning Allan with everything he has truly living? [[word count: 40,000-50,000 words]]
