My friends Hannah and Jacob were hanging out in my room on a Saturday. After some hours of joking about exotic butters, casual bongos, and angsty teens, we decided to play H-O-R-S-E in my front yard. "Hey Robyn! Where's your nest?" Jacob joked, cracking his grin. I smiled as we went outside, and a couple hours passed as we played. As Hannah reached her third letter, Jacob his fourth, and my second, we saw a little girl hanging by the fence. Being the gullible people we were, we went to go greet her.

When I said hello, she simply kept her gaze down at the ground. All three of us tried talking to her, but she wouldn't say a word. We assumed she was just shy and invited her to my house for cookies, since my parents were having lunch with one of my dad's coworkers.

Anyway, we invited the little sweetheart inside, and she ate two or three cookies before we tried to make conversation with her again. With a jolt, she lifted her head, and we were in for a shock.

Her eyes were pure black.
