As Walker approached the girl she looked at him then away. It appeared that she did not believe he was actually coming to speak to her and instead of going to walk right over her. "You look like you need a dance partner." His outstretched hand was met with a stunned look. 

"But...no one has danced with me. My daddy said that everyone would dance with me but now there is now one. My mommy isn\'t here to dance. And my older brother isn\'t here. It\'s just me." The tears threatened to fall again and Walker could not allow it. 

"Well, you see, I am here and so are my friends. We can dance with you as much as you want. Does that sound fun? Then We will personally walk you home at the end of the night." He swore he had seen this girl before but knew that the main issue at hand was that she was on the verge of tears. He could not rightfully leave someone alone without their parents to cry and be ignored by others. 

Alice had moved aside and was watching Walker carefully. She had a confused look on her face but Walker did not pay it any mind. He pulled the little girl in the blue dress to the side square and started to dance. Slowly she began to brighten up and the color in her face became rosy and bright. Her powder blue dress began to turn a vibrant blue similar to the sky. Her brown hair became the same as golden wheat. 

"We were coming for the festival and mommy and daddy said I could dance as much as I wanted. Big brother was going to buy me treats and a costume mask. But then...when I got here. No one was here. Mommy, daddy, and big brother were gone and it was just me. No one would dance with me. No one would give me anything to eat. No one." 

Images flooded Walker\'s mind. There was an older woman and an older man speaking to the little girl resting in a moving cart. Many supplies and bottles of wine were in the back with her and an older boy was sitting on the back checking on the girl constantly. 

Walker had no idea what he was seeing but the images prevailed. There was a growling from the sides with a familiar snorting sound. Orcs. They burst through the grasses and smashed the cart to pieces in the plains outside of the kingdom. The wines stained the grass all around and a small whine was heard. 

The next images that ran through Walker\'s mind were of the older boy striking out with a spear only to be slammed in to the grass. Walker couldn\'t hear the yelling and he knew that it was telling the little girl to run. 

There was grass all around but nothing to properly hide in. The thundering footsteps came from behind the girl just as she saw the city. The goal they had. It was all there was before there was nothing. 

"Excuse me, do you mind if I cut in? I have been looking for this little lady for some time now." The man that had separated Walker and the little girl was skinny, unbelievably so. His face was taught and it was closer to say he was all bones. The black cloak he had on drifted in an unseen breeze. 

There were no words to be said. The man took the girls\' hand and twirled her around. "Your family has been waiting for some time now. They asked me to come to find you. They can\'t dance without you. But here you are, trying to dance with someone unlike yourself. If he hadn\'t seen you and pulled out to the open, I may not have noticed a cute little one like yourself. Now, off you go." 

The man opened his hands and the girl drifted in to the smoke. There was a warm feeling that overtook the square and the voices that Walker had tuned out became loud yet again. "Thank you for the help. I hope we do not meet again. Normally, it is a sad day." The man was gone in the smoke as well, but there was a single skeletal hand that waved as the smoke drifted away.
