backpack babys

*(the worker was busy restocking the shelves and you randomly heard babbling and crying)*

*looks around confused* wait... is that a baby?

*(a small baby was in one of the backpacks, crying loudly)*

*the backpack unzips slowly, revealing a pale child with too many teeth*

*the child tilts its head unnaturally* I'm what happens when babies aren't held. *its eyes are completely black* You kept me contained. Now I'm... better.

*the child's limbs crack as it moves* Weird is kind. *it takes a step closer* Hungry is more accurate.
