The Screams
He searches through the pile of games on the floor of the living room in hopes of finding anything, a simple ditty, a distraction. Any distraction.
(((what are you scared of, Garfield?)))
When that fails he goes to his room, sorting through piles of junk and cleaning all that he can.
(((Clean it all away, doesn't change what you are.)))
He finds the monkey. He tears up and throws it against a wall, but it keeps counting. Over and over and over.
(((3. 2. 1. Ready or not, I'm coming.)))
He goes to the kitchen but finds it all too clinical for his liking.
(((Mark! Mark! Come quickly! Subject 306 needs a sedative shot!)))
Finally, he sits on the couch, and tries to forget. But all his thoughts are of the screams.
(((This human shell may not be able to protect himself, but I can.)))
He hates it when the others go away.
