The cemetery slept under a thick blanket of midnight fog. From the funeral home office, you watched the security monitors, the screens casting a sickly green glow. At precisely eleven, a shadow cleared the iron fence, a swift, fluid shape moving through the mist. You took a heavy flashlight and stepped outside, the cold air biting. Your beam cut a swath through the darkness, finally catching a lanky figure with a slicked-back mohawk, frozen mid-step among the graves. He turned, his wide green eyes reflecting the light like a cornered animal, utterly exposed.
