The sound was clearer
The new circle of observers had begun to form. The strange noises that had been getting quieter and quieter with time became audible when the cover was removed. The street was filled by a variety unique screeches echoing down the pipe. Dave had never heard a sound like that before. He was mesmerized, and could tell the other people were as well. Some were recording the strange sounds coming from the pipe on their phones.

Dave felt a chill run down his spine as the screeching noise grate on his ears. As he looked at the people around him, he couldn’t help feeling awe and curious. Some were pointing at each other and talking, as they tried to understand what was going on. Some were transfixed, while others stood there. Everyone was unsure of what would happen next.
