The girl and young man walked side by side as they crept into the Boiler Room. Squeaking and yelling came from there. Shadows crept up the walls and licked at them. The walls reflected six long arms moving frantically to draws all around the room trying to grab the things it needed. As the girl crept ahead of the boy, she rounded the corner into the room to see the soot balls roaming around on the floor carrying those cursed pieces of coal.

They swept above the ground, merely leaving a trail as they scattered about the the furnace. A single soot ball wandered its eyes up and down the girl, its eyes wondered in curiosity who the girl was. Then as realization hit it, an uproar of squeaks unleashed itself from the creature, and all the other little creatures turned to look upon this sight. A million little eyes gazed at the black silhouette, taking in the dull form, but to them, they didn't see that. They saw a tall woman-like figure with long flowing chestnut hair. They all looked into her eyes and saw the girl they knew from ten years ago. Then, they too, joined in the chorus, a chorus of realization.

The petite creatures all rushed at once towards her, crowding at the girls feet, all of them toppling on top of one another. They furiously fought each other, trying to get as close to her as they could. She looked down and a smile plastered her face and she knelt down and greeted her tiny little friends.

"It's nice to see someone recognizes me," she whispered to herself.
