are other people you know you shouldn’tanger because they have the authority to punish youPolice officers,politicians,insane asylum wardens,yourmom--if she's the bad sort  \nBut there are some people you shouldn't angerthat you don't know about,because no one ever sur-vived to warn you.  \nI’m the third kind.  \nI eat souls.The packaging can be tricky,but fortu-nately I am blessed with special skills to pry my mealsfrom their pesky shells.My teeth rip skin;my jawssnap bones.I am fast,lightning-fast,snuff—oh-was-that-your-life?—fast.I try to stick to bad souls,in thememory of my own mom(the nice sort).There wereother reasons,reasons I used to understand,but theyare reasons for a good person.I am not that.  \nCRACKED  \nThat might be why I feel so at home here.  \nSmall rooms,thick walls.Hushed whispers andear-grating wails.A symphony of misery set to the beatof beatings.  \nThe Mulligan Residential Mental Health Facility—an insane asylum,but with better promotional materi-als—prison of the cracked and grey.  \nCracked windows,cracked walls,cracked minds.Don’t make them angry or there will be cracked skulls.  \nGrey-painted walls,grey-tiled

cracked,grey and black.  \nThe sound of a slamming door vibrates down thedarkened hall and I draw up to my elbows.As the loudbang fades,dead silence takes its place.It's the middleof the night,maybe even early morning,and nothingelse stirs.My ears ache as I listen,waiting.When theystart,the heavy tap of boots on linoleum is loud,likedrumbeats.  \nSomeone's coming.My hands tighten on the fadedcoverlet.I hope it's him.  \nTwo nurses work the night shift,so there's a fifty-fifty chance it's only Gideon,the other one.Samson'sthe one I'm after,the reason I'm here.The ghost-girl,Callie,pointed him out to me.I wasn't in the mood","cbCaik4HOkTDTUFA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaik4HOkTDTUFA","pdf",13942793,368,"English","# ONE\n## Elza’s rules and appetite\n## Arrival
