Chapter Twenty

It came again, and now Tammy was sitting up.

The thoughts—the very, very evil thoughts—were still a distance away. Maybe even as far away as the bum she could still hear at the Hungry Bear, the bum who was hoping not just for a little money for some real food.

In fact, the roiling, dark, hate-filled thoughts were seeping past the bum even now. Stopping in front of the bum. The homeless man quit thinking of food or money or anything. Tammy sensed his fear. Worse, she almost tasted his fear. That was happening to her more and more these days. Sometimes she could taste an emotion, and if it was anything but happiness, it didn’t taste good at all. Now she tasted sour, spoiled putrescence, as if she had bitten into a rotten hot dog filled with maggots. She nearly gagged. Where that maggot part came from, she didn’t know.

Tammy had unknowingly brought her knees up and had wrapped her arms around them. She found herself rocking, rocking, rocking...

She felt the homeless man cowering, ducking his head, closing his eyes, and praying with all his heart—and as he prayed, she felt something slither up next to the man and whisper, “Soon...”

She felt the man lose control of his bladder, and now she was rocking even harder. Maybe moaning a little, too.

The evil swept onward, slithering, gliding, catching a breeze here and there. Sometimes it paused to watch people in their cars or cross the streets, and Tammy sensed one and all swallow suddenly and feel an irrational fear—and now the darkness continued onward, upward, gliding and blowing and drifting toward her.

Suddenly, she knew what was coming.

The devil.
