Night of shades
Just make it stop, she thought, and she heard herself whimpering as she fell forward, grinding her face into the dead leaves and soil, trying to tunnel into the cool ground in hopes that the darkness would close around her like a grave and make it stop, just make it stop.
There was something inside her brain trying to get out, something with a chainsaw and blood in its teeth, something howling, but the howling wasn’t pain—it was the kind of howling that meant laughter, and the laughter wasn’t the kind that invited others to laugh but the kind that you ran from while your heart slammed against your ribs and your legs moved of their own volition.
