“Did you think you’d outsmart me? I may look like a toy, but truths can be decieving, can’t they?” it asked slyly.
“What do you want from me?” Emily hissed.
“Oh, not just from you, dear.” The fog reached out to stroke her cheek. She jerked away. “You see, I can’t break free for long without a host. You just happened to be right there, so I took advantage,” he explained silkily. “I have to use what I got.”
