Kelly and Perry went towards the crows. It was almost as if they had entered another world, as the crows scattered from the bundle on their approach. This world was one from which all color seemed to have drained.
"Are you sure we should do this?" Perry said, strangely unnerved in this place far from the safety of a hospital ward. "We have enough problems, without creating more."
"You can only find out by looking" Kelly said, "Have courage" She then opened the bundle and looked inside. For Perry's sake, she maintained an impression of calm, although the pounding of her heart floated upon nauseating waves when she saw what was inside the bundle.
Within the bundle were severed human arms and legs, below the knees, hairy and caked with blood. The only other thing in the bundle was a pendant, also caked with blood. Upon the pendant was an unusual design; a wave with a trident, like a political or religious symbol she had never seen before.
"It's human body parts" she said, finally.
"That means we are witnesses. If this is found, people will suspect us. Maybe this is already a trap, and these parts have been planted here." Perry said.
"It's too late now. I really am interested to know what this symbol means." Kelly said. "It could be important"
She was about to search for the meaning of her symbol on her phone when Perry interupted.
"If you search for the meaning of the symbol online, this will make you seem suspicious. Are you sure this is a good idea?"
