xhesikaI must have been watching too much Stars because it started out with those. They were bigger, able to hold about ten people each and they popped out of the ground. There was no telephone inside, but a small monitor and a bizzarre keyboard, the numbers 0-9 vertical and then the letters alphabetically.
They were going towards this old building in swarms. It was a school, and I was standing in the soccer field.
He was there next to me, hair cropped short, not in the usual white, but black. "I want to go home." "Come inside for a little." He took me by the hand and sang a song I was certain I had heard before. I STILL think I've heard it before. I can barely remember the words, but I don't think I've ever heard a voice so beautiful.
The school was a mess on the inside, papers and trash everywhere. the wallpaper hung down from the ceiling and the stairs fell through in various places. "I want to go home." "Stay awhile."
A booth monitor was on the landing of the stairs and I was working with it almost immediately. First I put in my address, then it began to ask me questions: "Are you certain?" "No one is home." "You realize you have no key." I laughed at the last one and exclaimed, "it knows I lost my key." But he was gone and there was a strange sort of monster at the top of the stairs now.
The arrows were small, and to be honest I have no idea how many got stuck in my left shoulder and side. It got blurry from there, I ended up cavorting with one of the monsters and they poured oil down on the others while I half played the piano (cause I can apparently do that...).
I still don't know his name.
