A squeaking sound distracted her from her thoughts.  It was like air being let out of a balloon, but in shorter spurts.  Bonesaw?

It’s the arrival of the secret ninth member, Helium Guy.

No, the girl wasn’t making any noise.  The mechanical spider?  No.  Not the spider either.

Maybe it’s Crawler snoring.

Hm, okay, serious speculation… Maybe Cherish is in the hallway, trying to sneak out, but the floorboards are creaky. Or maybe it’s Mannequin?

Okay, it’s probably not creaky floorboards, but I’m stumped.

Stepping as close to Bonesaw and the spider as she dared, Aisha investigated the sounds.  Where were they coming from?

Maybe Bonesaw’s sticking mice into this person’s chest cavity.

Bonesaw smiled, “You’re going to have to speak up if you want me to hear you, Jonathan.”

Ahh, the patient!
