Joey grabbed a glass marble from a nearby bookshelf. With a crazed roar, he hurled it with all his might at the twin girls not far away. The marble struck one of the girls on the forehead, causing her to bleed profusely. An identical wound immediately appeared on the other girl's forehead.
Jenny and Yiwen were stunned to see Joey actually injure one of the monsters. But when they saw his enraged expression, a fire was lit within them, and a surge of ruthlessness followed.
"He's right! These are just Illusions born from our Fear! They're not real! We can't let them beat us!" Jenny's resolve hardened. She strode forward and stomped on the wailing dead infant on the floor, venting her own Fear and Anger.
POP! Like a water balloon bursting, blood splattered everywhere. The wailing infant exploded on impact, and the piercing cries stopped.
