The light was flashing faster and faster. He continued moving down the aisle, Haley’s body frozen mid breath. He walked by her. Further, further down the bus. Haley exhaled and glanced back over her shoulder, afraid he’d still be standing there. But the guard was now at the back of the bus. “Can we please have a look at your phone please, Miss?” the guard asked. “No you may not,” the woman in front of him replied. “There’s some things we need to clear up,” the guard said. “Would you please come with me now?” “No, don’t touch me,” the woman protested. Melanie climbed onto her knees to get a better view. Haley could see everyone around them was doing likewise. “If you don’t come with me now –” “Vampire Lover!” the woman suddenly screamed, brandishing a knife. “Parasite!” Three more guards ran onto the bus and up the aisle. A struggle ensued, before the woman was taken to ground. Her knife spilled across the floor of the bus, until it stopped beside Haley and Melanie’s seat.
