Welcome, welcome to the Machine.... Chapter 29



Her new job was to stand in the center of her circle of safety. The targets would enter and begin to show their new wares. It all seemed pretty boring for the first six hours. Then she noticed that the people looked the same. What the young girl didn’t realize was the targets were not going to leave the city. A pretty lady came into the area and whispered in her ear, ‘Do not move little girl. Do you understand me?’ Becky shook her head and the young woman walked over and climbed up onto the stage. Two frightening men and a maid walked in with bags that smelled horrible.
A huge gust of wind swept down upon the area. Everyone tried to stay calm as the oil spilled onto the marble floor. Becky was supposed to not move, yet it scared her to see that black ooze getting closer to her, it smelled so bad.

What happened next was worse than any smell. Becky stood still as she was instructed. Bugs crawled up her legs, and she had to keep her mind calm or she would run out of there screaming like a lunatic. The pretty lady came off the stage as the two creepy men walked over to the other side of the stage. The men in the center that seemed to light every fire that killed the targets, moved apart. In the next second the flames shot out and over Becky. She was frozen solid and could not move nor think. The creature that had pushed it towards her could not contain her delight. She did not like this young girl. The others quickly grabbed her, wrapped her in black plastic and took her away.
