When I was around five years old, I had a female doll that was the same size as me at the time.

There had already been a long line of motorcycles parked outside Doll Parts when Bryce arrived. Just by glancing at the familiar assortment of bikes, he knew that he must have been the last to arrive—blame it on the fact that he had never been to this club and it had also taken him quite a bit of time to get across town. He parked his Harley alongside the others and killed the engine, it's thunderous roar falling silent. "What the f'uck, Clyde." That voice was familiar enough. It was Killer; not
