   Twas a night of screams aimed for the heavens to send a savior that would bring them through. Whilst this occurrence came, laughter erupted like the volcano of blood that now washed across the carpet. In this happening, the corner of the chamber held a little girl whose smile was so innocently merry. One would have guessed she shut her mind down in denial, but the right mind would see her glee as she drug her hand across such drenched carpet. Inside thoughts so young was the happiness that her little bedroom now held the rich color of red she had already dreamed and asked for.
   In celebration that evening, the little girl of five sat at her tea table of a dry brown. With her, were her comrades she called "friends". Mommy and daddy could never see her friends - they saw them as well as they understood their daughter's love for the shades of red. But now, they had fulfilled her a dream. And so they dined, the children did, with teacups in hand as they drank the blood of their victims.
I made up the last line as a quote, and decided to write something to match along with it. It was inspired by a picture of a cup of blood I found (I lost the link to it, though).
