When the last of the darkness had shredded away, a pale figure stood among the trees.

And then he saw two pale figures amidst the dark foliage on the left side of the road.

A hospital bed, with a pale figure on it.

There was a crash and a pale figure appeared at the top of the stairs.

Through the stained-glass windows a small pale figure appeared, standing close behind the door.

The pale figure of the girl was following him.

And she was gone, her pale figure swallowed by the darkness of the stairs.

I got a glimpse of a pale figure opening the door.

He saw again his face, and that of the pale figure next to him.

But the pale figure spotted me and planted her heels.
