The musty smell that Jody had grown so awfully accustomed to clung to her surroundings, and she stared around the ruined annex, white eyes twinkling with animal instincts. She clung to the bottom of one of the many dark wooden beams running along the dilapidated wing, and she felt her strong fingers dig into the wood as she released her legs. Dropping heavily, she dropped onto all fours, walking in an innate way, her back legs moving biddably to the front. It was like a contortionist’s movement. Her mask was on, and she slithered toward an empty barrage. Taking up a slab of concrete, she scraped it along the wall, her eyes moving as quickly as her hand.
Pretty pretty pretty girls...
In pretty pretty pretty swirls,
Dancing with little little tutus.
We're gonna gonna get you too...
She finished and drew her appendage back, as it shook. It was a violent twitching, and she stared at her arm for a moment, before crushing the fragment in her hand. It shattered into little pieces, adding to the dust surrounding the two of them. Turning her head back, she stood, now human-like in her movements, and jumped into the beams, moving swiftly toward the newer building, gouging out large chunks as she went, carelessly dropping them as she reached for the next stretch. This was what she knew now. She turned her head to the sound of a car, or a bus or something pulling into the vacated streets, and she let out a grunt. Low, animal. She turned her eyes to Janice, as they seeped black, inky darkness. She growled, and reached up to dig at the roof, smashing through it with her demonic power, indicating for her friend- her only accompaniment, to follow. She then crawled in her strange, bending way to a knot hole in the wall, and she growled in a snarl at the sight of people- real people invading their territory.
