Lucy sat, crisscrossed on the floor, with her notebook in her lap. It was the same tattered notebook that she had written down all the notes she had made about the wristbands and the numbers. She had flipped to a blank page and simply titled it ‘MONSTERS’. While she waited, she had nervously tapped her pencil end on the paper until Pam began to speak.
“Well, I didn’t get up close with any of them, but they seemed to be… I don’t know? They seem to be sound oriented, or maybe it was just me? I didn’t know how safe it would be to try and get anywhere, so I climbed up into a tree and stayed there for most of the night. They didn’t seem to look up at all. It was moving sort of slowly, but then when it came around again-- or maybe it was another one of them…. Well, it seemed to hear or see something and then went zooming. Like faster than you would expect it to move I think.” Lucy added in a flood of explanation.
“But, I don’t think doors and windows really stop it.” She shifted a little, she knew that Marco didn’t really like her talking about these things, but it seemed necessary in the moment. “One has reached through our window before. And it sort of knows how to use cell phones, or at least the camera. I had been trying to catch them on tap and both times they’ve taken my phone and maneuvered it so that we can’t see a good look at it. Like, but flipping the camera to the other side or what not. Could have just been a bumbly mistake, but who knows.”
