She was horrified to see the scary creatures so she ran towards where the fireflies made their way. The shadows followed them and they made terrifying sounds.

"People are coming already, they'll help us, you'll see." She smiled, her teeth stained with blood. "Silly girl..." She whispered, and then she was gone too.
