As children we all fear that little creak in the night, the feeling that we are being watched from the closet by something unknown. Our childish minds depict them as monsters. But as we grow up we come to realise that these things are make-believe, a fiction created by our minds to scare ourselves. But in my closet, there really is a monster. And it took my...
Golden blue slitted eyes looked out of the brush. Dangerous and merciless they were, for they were looking on a man that had wandered into the jungle to grab some fruits for his family. He wandered in for he was hungry and didn't know of the rumors of a bloodthirsty creature that lay in wait for stupid villagers like himself. Saliva dripped down sharp fangs...
The creature, for lack of a better word, woke to an incessant, trilling buzz. Opening its eyes, it surveyed its surroundings for the cause of the annoyance, but couldn't find it. It lifted itself upright, before looking at the surface it had rested upon. White folds across a warm, soft padding confused the creature. Another layer of material lay in a heap to...
*** Excerpts from Stephanie's Research Diary August 12: Today, at the base of a tree, Jacob found a nest with a completely new species of beetle. It's large enough to fill up most of the palm of my hand. They occasionally release a small dose of a sweet-smelling pink pollen-like substance.

Anya stared after Mr. Hughes' receding back with her mouth dropped open as she felt something surround her other ankle. Something that was solid, slippery and strong. She was unable to move her legs and felt other similar vines of some sort wrap around her upper thighs and squeeze gently, tugging her a little farther into the lake. Two suddenly slipped from...
*The final part of the story started with the Howling* With widened eyes Shintaro and Brit shook their heads in disapproval. "That's suicide Ken," the mercenary protested, "You can't just take them on by your own." "Baby you can't do this alone," added the female scientist. "That's a direct order Shintaro," Ken sternly told his subordinate. "Alright, I...
Frank hated this. Watching the shipments was a complete boring waste of time. No-one would bother hitting Crackles shipment of angst tonight, let alone know about it. Besides Frank there were five other guys at the warehouse, each of them carrying the same automatic rifle as him with two extra clips on their person. Frank took another drag of his cigarette...
Author's Note: This is part of a series of short stories. They are written very quickly and are not edited. They are also VERY weird and are not for everyone. You have been warned. ***** Linda screamed and tugged hard on the limb around her arm. She balled her other hand up into a fist and slammed it down on the appendage, but it did nothing.
