Hearts ran down an alley with Ankh in her arms. She'd seen other creatures run and decided it might be a good idea. She ran to her house, sneakers clanging on the iron stairs, crossing the grates up to the attic. Her bedroom. She watched the chaos down below.
Well, a delicate chaos.
Yes, there were strange creatures here, heart people with smiles on their faces, footsteps oozing pink bubbles shaped like hearts. Yet for all their brusqueness, there was something inherently gentle about them. She didn't know what to make of it. They were like...gentle invaders.
She watched them take Townspeople beyond the gates of the town, past the cemetaries, into the forest.
