The Little Girl

Another Little Boy

One after another, the children fell ill. Many died days later. Only a few survived. The ones who did survive started to eat the ones that didn't. When the were asked why the did it, they told them that the voices told them to. They said that they hated the the taste, but they were too scared to stop. Except for one little boy. He said that the voices were his friends, and the taste of his dead friends were wonderfully tasty. The adults dismissed what he had said. After all he was just a little boy whose friends just died. Days later people from a near village noticed that no one was here from the orphanage to pick up food for the children. However, when they went in they saw a horrible sight. There were the remaining children slaughtered in one pile and in the second pile was the adults, or what was left of them. Then behind the pile of dead children they heard laughter from a little boy.
