It was the scariest thing she had ever seen in her life. She wanted to scream but couldn't. She wanted to close her eyes but couldn't."Itsevil… " thought Kathelyn, hands on knees, rocking back on forth. "Evil… "she muttered it to herself. She liked the way that sounded. "Evil Evil Evil"she muttered over and over to herself, obsessively. It sounded so… fitting."Kathelyn? … " muttered Lina, approaching cautiously."WHAT?! " screamed Kathelyn giving Lina a mean stare."No… nothing! " stuttered Lina, as she turned around and escaped.Kathelyn returned to her ramblings. "Its cold to… so cold… so verycold… "She remembered what had happened that day. Eugene had cheerfully left thehouse. Suspicious, Kathelyn followed. Eugene skipped down the road, hummingthat stupid song about Rosie she had made up. It filled Kathelyn with sadnessand hate. She wanted to sqash the spoor… shut it up… destroy it forever. Giveit just what it deserved.The park. Rosie was waiting, and he cheerfully shared an ice-cream with Eugene.Eugene told him that she didn't want to go until they made sure that SHE wasn'tfollowing them. Rosie was confused. Eugene walked over and pulled Kathelyn outof the bush she was hiding in. Kathelyn crawled over to Rosie, crying andbegging. He turned from her, and asked how she could be so pathetic. She gotup, crying. Eugene laughed at her and taunted her. "Pathetic… Pathetic… Pathetic… "The next part went slow.She went for the spore. The spore screamed and ran past her for Fillia. Shegrabbed the spore, and Fillia grabbed the spore. She pulled back violently, andtook them all with her. Into the fountain. Next thing she knew, she was soakingwet and lying amidst a billion pennies, Eugene was crying her head off, and Rosiewas screaming at her for being so careless and mean to children. He grabbed Eugeneand stormed off, and she was left there, stunned. "He must hate menow… "That was it. She got up, visited the spore-room. Eugene was sleeping. Smiling.She giggled and muttered "Rosie… Daddy… " in her sleep. "HowDARE she call my Rosie daddy?! " screamed Kathelyn allowed. Eugene woke up.But had no time to scream. Kathelyn pulled back and plunged her hand into herchest and pulled out her small heart. A lifeless body fell to the bed. She heldit in her hand. The blood ran through her fingers. She wiped her hands on Eugene'sclothing, and muttered "For all the hearts you froze cold… "A trip to the kitchen. She washed her hands, cleaning them thouroughly, andwashed her clothing. To the freezer. Hiding the heart was the main thing to do.The freezer was the perfect place.Back to spore's room. A few… adjustments. She took one last satisfied glance,and screamed at the top of her lungs. Her parents, Lina, Shingo, they all camerunning. Her mother screamed. Shingo yelled "Cool! " Her father calledthe cops, while Kathelyn explained, sobbing."You see… I couldn't sleep. Then all of the sudden, I heard a scream! Icame running. It was too late. A man climbed out the window, and Eugene wasdead already. You can see the blood trail."She had been so careful. So sincere. She was a grand actress also. It worked."Welcome to the hotel California… " the radio murmured somewhere. It was over.
