---- her fists against each one.

Open the door! Please! I'm begging you! Tears streamed down her cheeks, her voice breaking as her strength waned.

Please, dont leave me out here! Someone help! The town was deathly silent, its empty windows.

staring back at her like hollow eyes.

Her cries faded into the void, swallowed by the wind The houses were long abandoned, their inhabitants either dead or turned into the very creatures she fled Iler legs gave out, and she collapsed leaning against a door, sobbing.

The bread had fallen again, lying forgotten in the dirt as she wrapped her arms around herself, rocking back and forth.

Where is everyone? she whispered.
