A young girl stood alone in an old apartment building, watching out the window of a fourth floor room. She slowly smiled with the shadows from her red bangs hiding her eyes. "Hickerly, sickerly, docks," she lifted an arm, "the lock ran up the stocks."260Please respect copyright.PENANAVlU2ApaHzo

The twelve year old's hand gained a faint reddish green outline. "He hoped to find the heart," a dark beast formed on the sidewalk below. "But when he got there, the stage was bare."260Please respect copyright.PENANAJFuj0Sbmib

The monster, shaped to resemble a lycan gargoyle fusion, roared and charged an old woman who had been walking back with her groceries. "He turned to look, seeing the heart," the smile grew into a grin as the woman screamed, dropping her bags and fleeing as quickly as she could.260Please respect copyright.PENANAz4Nnc7Tx1m

Her soft childish voice grew softer. "Out jumped the key and down fell the lock." She giggled quietly as her hand lost its outline and the beast faded away into thin air. "Tumbling away from the blackened heart."260Please respect copyright.PENANApJVdcrx7X4

The street lamps came on outside as the sun set. The light cast onto her red hair caused it to look almost brown before returning to red as she moved away from the window. "Hickerly, sickerly, docks," she tilted her head up from looking down, gazing at a closed door in the empty room with a sharp green-turquoise eye. "The lock ran up the stocks." She whispered releasing another small giggle in the silent room.260Please respect copyright.PENANAxdTB52LZt2

"He lost his sight, lost his head and toppled over dead." The girl whispered in her simple white summer dress with no shoes. She lifted a hand and brought it down, casting cold shadows across alls vision so she fell out of sight.260Please respect copyright.PENANAW3Zcv1TFyN
