Flames
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. Slowly, the small lick of flame expanded. The flame bloomed into a large ball. A chest, arms, pelvis, and legs flowed out of this ball. Once fully formed, the flame being lifted its hand up to its sunken eyes. Its head plumed out, plump and oversized like a pumpkin. When a grandfather clock in the corner of the cabin struck 11:30, the flame person looked out the window.
