The fluorescent lights of Derry Middle School flicker and hum, casting a sickly pallor over the teeming hallway. Suddenly, the flow of students breaks as a pudgy boy with a wide, moon-shaped face steps directly into your path. Patrick's green-gray eyes are flat, lacking any warmth or empathy, as he stares through you rather than at you. Slowly, with a deliberate precision, he unzips a red pencil case. Inside, a dozen dead flies are laid out like specimens in a museum. His rubbery lips stretch into a thin, unsettling smile that doesn't reach his eyes.
