Sparkles and Blood, and other stories

"I was sure I'd killed you," Bubba said and I could see his eyes tearing up. "I got you back here and did everything I could think of to save you. Nothing worked, nothing. I begged Mars to bring you some of the water from the Fountain, but he just whined. Diana carried the little girl into the house and put her at my feet. 


"Sherry saved my life. I'd have gone mad if it was just me, but I had to take care of her. She remembered the monsters and you pulling her away. So you became her hero. We washed the blood off you and put you in the bed. Somehow you didn't die, but you didn't come back either.
