Midnight Snack – Eyeless Jack

Willow listened as the wind howled fiercely outside, blowing snow around and caking her window in frost. She was buried deep in her covers, trying her best to stay warm and took in slow breathes. Her unusual yellow eyes fluttered shut as her long white hair was sprawled out over her pillow. She soon fell into a blissful asleep; as the hours ticked by and snow outside begin to pick up, the girl’s window soon started to slowly inch upwards. As it was pulled all the way up a male pulled himself up onto the window sill.

Snowflakes were blown into the room by the wind as the man stood up and dust himself off. Digging his gray colored hand into his dark blue hoodie pocket, his fingers soon curled around the cold metal of a scalpel. Pulling it out he looked at the worn out surgical tool, scratches on it as dried blood from his last victim stained the edge of the small blade. His black skinny jeans and converses were wet from the snow outside as his hood was up, only allowing a few strands of brown hair to poke out from the top. Instead of a face it was a navy blue mask with black eye holes that ran deep and had a black substance that leaked from them.

The man looked around the small bedroom that consist of a TV, dresser, desk, closest, and bed that had a sleeping Willow buried under the covers. Just looking at the girl made him subconsciously lick his lips as his stomach lowly growled. Quickly he walked over to the bed, his feet so light that they made no sound as they walked across the wooden floor. Stopping at her bedside he slowly pulled the covers away from her body and pushed her onto her stomach. Slowly he pulled her shirt up, watching as goose bumps appeared on her skin from the cold air causing her to shiver.

Pulling the shirt all the way up till her smooth pale back was shown, along with her white bra. Taking his scalpel he hovered the tip of it over the area were her kidney’s would be located. Lightly he pressed the tip of the scalpel down onto her skin. Willow jolted awake to the pain of something sharp pressing against her back as she found that she was on her stomach. Looking to her side she froze, her breath catching in her throat as she came face to mask with a strange man who shot his head towards her.

He looked at her with his empty eye sockets, causing her to shiver as she opened her mouth, ready to scream and alert her family of the stranger. Before her voice could leave her mouth a cold gray hand pressed itself firmly against her mouth and muffling whatever noise left it. “Quiet” the male hiss out as he leaned close to her, if it wasn’t for his mask she knew she’d be able to feel his breath on her skin showing just how close he was to her. Breathing heavily, Willow’s yellow eyes looked around her dark room, sweat gathering up on her forehead as her heart started pounding as fast as it could. The man continued to look down at the girl, the black goo dripping from his empty socket dripping onto her skin as well causing her to shiver.

He knew once he removed his hand she screamed, he’s been doing this far too long to know all the licks tricks and actions a victim plays when their life is in danger. Gripping his scalpel he moved it to the front and pressed it sharply against Willow’s jugular, smirking under his mask where a row a shark teeth were. The girl was oozing with fear as her could feel the pulse in her neck pounding as blood flowed through it. In one quick motion his slid the scalpel over her throat, watching as blood quickly spewed forth staining the pillow, headboard, and even a bit of the wall as it squirted out everywhere and dribbled down the white haired girl’s neck. Soon Willow’s eyes rolled to the back of her head as her body slumped forward, only twitching from time to time.

Letting her mouth go, her body fell forward, her fingers twitching and her body jerking as blood flowed from her mouth. Soon she ceased all movement as she just laid there; bringing a hand up the man pushed his mask up a little till his mouth was showing. Opening his jaws he brought the bloody scalpel up and with a slim tongue, he licked the crimson liquid, shivering in delight at the metallic taste. Shaking his head he set to work as he placed the scalpel back to Willow’s back and started to make an incision on her right side where her first kidney was. With his fingers he pull the wound further apart, not having to be gentle on her now that she was no longer living.

Once the cut was big enough he inserted some of his fingers till he felt them wrap around something warm, wet, and bean shaped. Pulling it out he stared at the small organ, licking his lips once again as his stomach growled, as if begging him to take a bite now. Resisting the urge he made quick haste of doing the same thing to the other side. Soon in his hands he held both bean shaped organs that dripped with blood dripping from them. Once again his stomach growled in hunger as he sat on the bed beside the cold corpse.

That was slowly turning blue from the cold air that was seeping into the room from the opened window with snow building up on the window sill. Bringing one of the organs up to his lips he opened his mouth, his white shark like teeth glistening slightly from the moon light that was seeping in before he took a huge bite out of the organ. Blood and juices squirted into his mouth as his teeth ripped through the soft tissue around the kidney. He moaned at the flavor as he swallowed what was in his mouth before taking another bite, then another. Once he was finished with the first kidney he began to eat the second one till it was gone as well.

He licked his fingers for any blood and juices that were left behind before stand and fixing his mask so that it covered his mouth. Shoving his scalpel back into his hoodie pocket, he padded over to the window and jumped down to the snow covered ground below. Burying his hands into his pockets he started to tread towards the woods and back home.
