She turned, her body trembling with fright. She knew she had to stop what was unfolding in front of her but she could not find the strength. She tried to run to intervene but fright was keeping her chained in place. She just stood there in the darkness watching. Three men were slowly circling on a young girl on the other side of the room where the lights were on. The men began to steadily converge on their prey like a pack of wolves cornering a stray sheep. One man, wielding a roll of duct tape lunged for the little girl forcing her to the ground and plastering tape over her mouth and hands. A second man knelt down beside her and stared intently into her eyes, his snake-like eyes dug deep into her causing her to finally let out the built up screams only to have them muffled and silenced by the tape restraining her. The man then drew his blade and began cutting into the soft white dress that gently clung to her delicate petite body. She closed her eyes, wishing it was over and that all this was a bad dream knowing all too well that it wasn't.
The man was merely centimeters from reaching that zone which should not be tainted by the hands of evil when the knife was ripped from his hand and flung into the nearby darkness. He looked up to see the third man stood, not blinking, not moving, not breathing. Stone cold dead. The two men looked over into the darkness. The sharp snapping of fingers broke both the silence and the darkness. A small flame appeared in the darkness revealing a girl with lifeless eyes and a poltergeist smile stitched onto her face. Silky dark purple hair flowed along a slight breeze. A long translucent, pale arm extended from behind her and shot towards the man holding the tape. It clamped down on his head crushing it like a sheet of paper spraying blood and other internal liquids onto every surface in the nearby area all before the man could scream. The hand then attached itself to the face of the other man and slammed him into the wall. He slumped to the ground leaving a trail of blood on the wall as he fell. Another ghostly hand picked up the knife and launched it at the head of the man, thrusting his head backwards. One of the hands unsheathed the knife from his head and cut the tape holding the little girl's hands. The other hand lifted the girl to her feet. Placing her outside of the room it turned off the light plunging the room into darkness. The flame floating in the darkness faded out, the hand dissipated and silence fell on the room.
