Dim moonlight cascaded through a dusty window, casting a small glimmer of light into the dark attic. There was nothing but silence, but as the moon continued to rise, the light trails rose upon a beaten down figure. At first glance it would look like a collection of parts and oddities, nothing at that grand, but shortly…in just a snap of the fingers, the figure twitched, a static growling emulating as a single tiny red light flickered on. The creation slowly came to life in such a robotic way, it would easily take the limelight in a haunted house.
Ripped up gray hands reached outwards, the ebony nails scrapping against the floor as it pulled itself to its feet. With a twitching head, it began to look around the room, taking in the all so familiar atmosphere. However, to him, it was new every time he had woken up. He almost didn’t collect memories anymore, he had no one to share any with. He was lost and forgotten in time, and he didn’t even know it.
With slowly trudging motions the creation stomped across the attic, it’s head twitching and bobbing as it walked closer to the moon, his paws soon meeting the glass. Slowly, he ran his sharpened nails in a downward motion, causing a near ear-piercing screeching noise. The ghost in the machine had yearned for a normal life again...One where he’d see his friends, the sunlight. It had been many moons ago that he was cursed to this life. Funny how a simple nights work had turned into something unbelievable.
