Under the moonlight from the open window Sarah crossed the room.
Under the moonlight she opened the door, the knob creaking slightly when she turned it.
Under the moonlight she crossed the dark grey pavement into the deserted street.
Sarah knew what she had been bullied into doing.
Under the moonlight she pulled out the brightly coloured spray can.
Under the moonlight the can spewed bright yellow paint.
Under the moonlight Sarah was knocked unconscious.
Under the moonlight Sarah was stuffed into a large brown bag.

Sarah was never seen again but under the moonlight her ghost still haunts the empty street spray painting words onto walls.
