I stuck my foot out to poke the dead body, not even thinking of what happens every person who does that in a horror movie. A hand shot out and took hold of my ankle, causing me to scream in alarm, and fall flat on my butt. The grip was surprisingly strong, for a dead person, and no matter how hard I tried to get away, no matter how hard I struggled, I could not get away.
I was sure I was about to die.
I noticed movement occurring at the top of the body as the skull turns to face me. Half of the face was burnt off, with chunks of black and yellow flesh hanging of, revealing nothing but white bone. The half boy, half skeleton smiled at me, a gesture that would be comforting despite the fact that it well..... should be dead. "Um excuse me, " The skeleton said in a rather polite raspy voice. "It is rather chilly out here, could we please go inside?"'
Lilly had always been just another face in the crowd, doing what ever normal people do, until her life was changed forever the night adventure literally crawled up her doorstep. She wants nothing more than this strange boy gone, but with the promise of adventure, will the call for adventure speak louder than her voice of caution?
