• (Cassie's point of view)

    After I left Lee's house, I had to go to work. Not my FAVORITE place in the world... but I love Hot Topic, so thats why I decided to work there. I arrived a few minutes before my shift, but it's okay.

    "How are you?" my friend, Jackie, asked.
    "Fine," I replied.
    "How's Lee? It sounded really bad when you called me this morning," Jackie sighed.
    "He's... better," I heitated, "Is the boss here yet?"
    "No."

    Jackie looked at her watch. "Oh! I gotta go pick up my little sister, Annie, from my grandma's and take her home. Chris will be comming in about 10 minutes."

    Jackie ran out of the store before I could say something. I rolled my eyes, and began working. I counted money, counted stock, and orderd more All Time Low shirts.

    A strange man came into the store with a few boxes. I stared at him, as he came up to me.

    "Ma'am?" He looked at my name tag. "Cassie?"
    "Yeah... who are you?" I asked.
    "I'm Doug. Just here to drop off some more skelanimal junk," the man... or, Doug, said in a crude voice.
    "Fine. Just put them here."

    Doug shoved a clip board in my face. I signed, and he left. I started to unpack the boxes. I turned away for a second, grabbing a new pair of sicors. Once I turned back, the skelanimals were gone.

    "What the ********?" I asked.
    I looked up, and there where the skelanimals were already in place. This shocked me. I looked around to see if anyone saw... there was no one.
