The Skeleton Girl
330 Words
I was walking along the sidewalk, in a different outfit (my other one was covered with vampiress blood) which was a red turtleneck sweater with a grey jacket and darker grey pants with blackish boots. I also wore gloves so the leather on the sword doesn't bother my skin (I got blisters from the leather). A girl ran towards me, and not just any girl. She was a skeleton. She wore a short sleeves shirt with pants tucked into her combat boots. She had mechanic's goggles on her head and she had a vest and a belt with useful items I'm guessing. She also had a wrench. I could tell she was female because of her voice. She thanked me. "Thank you, kind human! I honestly don't know how to thank you correctly, I'm sorry. Wait! Maybe I could assist you with your travels? I'm a mechanic." I was confused by her rambling (which, I did not mind the rambing at all, realistically). so I asked "I'm sorry, I don't believe I caught your name?" "That's because I didn't throw it." We laughed, because that was a pretty good pun. "I'm Terra. Who are you?" I started to slowly have this feeling, not in a bad way at all, but I'm not sure how to explain it. I told her I don't have a name in the best way I could, starting to get nervous of how she might react. "I, um, I don't have a name." She frowned somehow. Then she smiled again. "I can call you Unnamed !" I smiled. "That's a good idea." We walked and we walked on our way to wherever we were going. "Why were you thanking me?" I asked Terra. "You saved me from the vampiress who took over my body. I had no control until I woke up without her controlling me. So I'll say it again because I don't think joining you is enough of a thanks. Thank you." We continued.
