Chapter 16: BOB
Previous Chapter Next ChapterChar Gen woke up with a start. He knew what had happened and his heart sunk. The sound of the glass shattering downstairs had done the same to his nerves. It had come in. After weeks of watching and stalking him, the creature had finally decided to break in. The patio doors, made completely of glass, provided it with the perfect entrance.
Char laid there in bed, in the blackness only illuminated by the small amount of clear light that the moon provided through the space between the curtains. He listened for The Creature, listened to see if it was inside, secretly praying that everything would be silent. The terrifying cracking of glass under its feet confirmed his worst fear, it had finally made its way into his home.
With this crushing realisation, Char, now shaking, grabbed his sword and crept downstairs deeper into the darkness, determined to confront this thing once and for all, secretly hoping though, that it would run away when it saw him as it normally did. Char stood at the bottom of the stairs, listening. At first all he heard was the cracking of glass under The Creatures feet, then, for the first time, Char heard The Creature, breathing heavily as if its throat was blocked by phlegm. The hideous creature snarled and clicked, gradually getting closer to Char.
Now out of the kitchen, the creature was finally off of the glass. It walked almost silently now, strangely more agile than it looked, especially considering how clumsily it ran away. Char realised what he had to do. He grasped his weapon tighter and... Froze, unable to move. He knew he needed to attack it but he just couldn't. Its teeth, its eyes, its skin. Pony, but not quite. The Creature was in the living room now and edging closer by the second yet Char was still too terrified to move, even if it didn't have front legs, this Creature was the embodiment of terror to Char.
Char stood at the bottom of the stairs, shaking. He heard The Creature getting ever closer, the sickening sound of its distorted breathing amplified by the almost pitch darkness. The Creature was nearly at Char, he had one chance to kill it and he wasn't going to waste it.
The Creature stepped into the doorway to the stairs, Char was hidden just to the left. He swung his sword at fall force, hitting The Creature in the neck with it. The sword stuck to it. The Creature staggered back, then stopped and looked at Andrew, its tiny wild eyes staring into Chars soul. It lifted its right hind leg. Its balance was nothing Char had ever seen before. It stood on its right hind leg, as The Creature's leg seemed to extend. It grabbed to sword from its neck, and pulled it out. Char felt a deep fear of The Creature unlike anything he had ever experienced. It tossed the sword away. The Creature then let out a gurgled hiss at Char, baring all of its sickening deformed teeth in the process.
The Creature kicked Char in the face. Char fell to the floor in pain. Char rolled onto his back and scuffled up against the wall just behind him. The Creature watched him until he reached the wall, at which point it walked towards him and looked down at Char as if it were judging him, lying there, helpless. The Creature stamped on his leg, snapping the bone. Tears began to stream from Char eyes, the pain so intense Char thought he was going to vomit.
Char, now incapacitated, had nowhere to go and no way to fight. The Creature placed its foot on Chars head, pressing down, ripping into his flesh with its long dirty toenails. With The Creature's foot now completely inside his head, Chars lifeless body fell to the ground. The last of his tears fell streamed down his face, and then he passed away. The Creature loomed over what was by now his bloody corpse. The creature descended its face toward Chars broken body and then tore away a bloody piece of flesh from Chars chin, dislocating one side of his jaw in the process. The creature continued to tear and eviscerate Char's corpse until everything the creature could stomach had been devoured. The Creature then left... Calmly. Silently. With a pure and deep hatred in its heart. The Creature left, the same way it came in, through the broken patio doors...
Several weeks afterwards, Chars best friend, Xavier Priston came to check up on him. He hadn't answered any of his letters, and he began to grow worried.
What Xavier saw was terrifying. Chars body was destroyed, and devoured. Nothing was left but some muscles, along with his skeleton. Xavier immediantly went to the police station, and told them about what he found. They came back to the house, and found Char's skeleton.
The police labeled it as a animal attack. Maybe some timberwolves had broken into his house. They were wrong, and Xavier knew this. He had created it with Char.
But why did The Creature kill every other scientist except for Char and himself? If it killed the others, why didn't it kill them. Xavier didn't know this, but the answer is simple. It's angry.
