Once she reached the snack shop Erika searched near the broken window where the smell was at its strongest, making her forget that Cinder and Sam were there. Thoroughly searching the window, her eyes fell upon a shard of glass still in the window, but it was nothing more than a broken jagged piece coated in a dark red substance.<br/><br/>A small, irritable growl escaped her as she struggled in the scarf that kept her confined, attempting to use whatever movement she could to cut herself free. She moved closer to the window, staring at the one piece of glass before inhaling a deep breath. /<span style="font-style: italic">That's it. That's what smells so good.</span>/<br/><br/>Without thinking, Erika stuck her tongue out and licked the blood from the glass, tasting the copper metallic taste that left her mouth watering as her hunger increased.<br/><br/>Her blue eyes grew wide as she searched the window for more, smelling more blood coming from somewhere close. "Is someone bleeding? It smells like there's a lot of blood coming from someone." she said, staring at Sam and Cinder through the window with a predatory look.
