From the Sky

From the Genre Shorties prompt: It rained today but it wasn't raining drops of water.    What was it that was falling from the sky?

She sat in the stall farthest from the entrance, with her feet up against the door.

They hadn’t figured out doors yet.  It had only started raining that morning, and they were still becoming whatever they were going to become.

The yellow-green stuff that fell like rain, had gathered in puddles in the yard.  Before she had retreated to the bathroom she had looked out and saw some of them down on all fours, drinking from those puddles.

She could hear them as they shuffled against the sides of the building.

It was going to be a long night.
