The door clicked softly open. He stood <strong>the</strong>re for a moment in <strong>the</strong> doorway, watching h<strong>is</strong> sleeping prey,fingering <strong>the</strong> blade in h<strong>is</strong> hands. A small smile, <strong>the</strong>n he stepped forward.Jonathan was in <strong>the</strong> upper bunk, completely given over to sleep. One small slice would do it; straightacross <strong>the</strong> jugular just like that...Eyes open wild in choking death, unable to make a sound; David Allen Griffin calmly holding down anarm that yearned to flail as spurting blood spotted pale skin. It <strong>is</strong> an interesting experience, killingyourself.And <strong>the</strong>n a sound from <strong>the</strong> lower bunk revealed that Eddie Kasalivich was up.Griffin released Jonathan’s arm and gazed idly down at Eddie.He chuckled."What are you looking at?"The screaming got <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rs up.Officer Traven did not look happy.****Griffin did not quite like being yelled at, but conceded that Officer Traven was probably justified in doingso. So he didn't say anything and attempted to look happy in <strong>the</strong> hopes that it would give o<strong>the</strong>rs <strong>the</strong>impression that he knew more than he was letting on. Alternatively, it might give <strong>the</strong>m <strong>the</strong> impressionthat he was not completely all right in <strong>the</strong> head, but you've got to take some r<strong>is</strong>ks sometimes.Jjaks came tentatively into <strong>the</strong> room and stood by <strong>the</strong> two corpses looking traumat<strong>is</strong>ed and nauseated.He saw dead people.Neo was still fast asleep.

Paul asked."Yeah." Alex stood up and opened <strong>the</strong> door a crack, blinking in <strong>the</strong> sliver of light that shone through. Itwas hard to make out <strong>the</strong> exact words of <strong>the</strong> ra<strong>is</strong>ed voices, or just how many were speaking. O<strong>the</strong>rdoors were opening; a small crowd was growing near <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> corridor.Alex heard an overly-loud thump behind him as <strong>the</strong> barely-awake Paul underestimated <strong>the</strong> heightbetween <strong>the</strong> bunk bed ladder and <strong>the</strong> carpet. They left <strong>the</strong> room to join <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rs, Paul limping a little."Congratulations," Griffin said, glancing out at <strong>the</strong> crowd. "You just woke up everyone."Jack continued yelling at him.
