    Stay still, stay quiet, wait it out, and slowly sneak away from the door.

    You get a text from Mor, saying she's going to be over soon, and you better have the new music ready.

    ' I haven't had time, there's a creepy kid outside my door who won't leave me alone for an hour.' Evelyn texts back.

    ' You'd better get to it, I'm on my way. And if he's bugging you, call the police. '

    When Morrigan arrives she finds a young boy standing outside of Evelyn's apartment. Apparently the police were not called. She sighs and approaches the boy.

    He looks at her with big, black eyes, expression frustrated. "I. I'm thirsty. Can I have some water?"

    ...fuck.

    You need to get Morrigan out of the hall.

    It's a BEK.

    Morrigan...

    Maybe you should call Evelyn's landlord.

    You're getting a really bad vibe, and you've heard these things are dangerous...

    " There's a water fountain down the hall. " Morrigan points.

    Shit! How do I get rid of these damn things?!

    (( does she know of any prescribed measures?))

    The boy's eyes twitch.

    Evelyn - you're not sure at all.. maybe the Internet can solve your problems?

    Morrigan stares at him "what? Want me to show you?" She begins walking towards the apartment office.

    The boy seems... too happy about this. "Yes. Yes please-"
     
  17. Morrigan Black

    Morrigan walks towards it confidently, trying to stay ahead of the kid.
     
  18. Evelyn Browne

    Evelyn whips out her smart phone and begins consulting google. As she looks up in time to see her other half walk past her door. " Well where the fuck are you going Morrigan?" She asks the air.

    A mop of red hair is stalking your other half.


    Both of you feel a sense of dread run up your spine and crawl down to nest in your stomachs.

    Morrigan picks up her pace, resisting the urge to pick up her pace, but straining her ears to hear the sound of his footsteps over her heels if he's close by.
