Cecilia placed a hand on the girl's shoulder. "Do you have a name?" she asked.
The child shook her head silently, crying, trembling at the touch. She looked too young to be out alone, and too young to be this afraid. She looked up at Cecilia, terrified.
Please don't hurt me...
Cecilia shook her head. "I won't..." her eyes trailed off with her words, focusing on the scars. "Are you hungry?"
The child nodded, and Cecilia took her hand, placing it to her temple. "Go on, then. Just focus and open your mind, alright? Focus on what it is you need to consume." When the child obeyed, she also revealed her own past. Cecilia's heart skipped a beat in shock - a setup just like what she'd been in, in the same facility, but with newer 'recruits'. So, then... where was her own group?
So see the leaves fall to the ground,
And see them lying all around,
But still I can't see you.
And there's a wind that plays in the air
Flying around, how it does not care,
But still I can't see you.
And the seasons pass away,
And I still sit here lonely each and every day,
Wondering what's gone wrong
'Cause I don't remember seasons lasting oh so long,
Oh so long...
