Chapter 3: The Monster From Outer Space

Luke drove Elise home. He could tell she was upset.

“What the fuck just happened?” Luke asked.

“What the fuck came out of that spaceship?” She asked Luke.

“What the fuck just happened?” Luke asked again. “Mike. Why do I ever listen to Mike? His ideas are shit, I could have gone home, played some video games and had a normal fucking day.” Luke vented.

“I’m too stoned for this.” Elise said. “I’m scared.”

“It’s okay. I’ll drive you home.” Luke said. He went quiet and they stopped at a traffic light. He put his phone password in, then started playing a song over bluetooth.

Elise laughed as ‘If You Leave Me Now’ by Chicago started playing.

“I love this song,” Luke said.

“What was that song you sent me, by the way?” She asked.

“Oh it’s this one,” Luke pulled to the side of the quiet road and started to play ‘Listen To Your Heart’ by Roxette. He started driving again.

He started singing to her as they drove home. He’d rehearsed every word. She laughed and went along with it. She couldn’t stop smiling. Luke was being very energetic with his karaoke.

As he sang, the quiet town of Pacific Village glowed in the night.

A security guard arrived at the driveway and saw the broken chain.

“Fucking kids.” The fat man said. He drove his car further into the parking lot and right up to the entrance. He grabbed a slice of pizza from the box on his passenger seat and wandered into the park. The gates were still wide open.

The man saw a lot of smoke ahead and returned to the boot of his car. He grabbed a fire extinguisher from the back and started to walk inside.

“Poseidon’s Mother.” He said. “What the fucking crikey bingo fuckin bullshit is this shit?” The old man cursed.

He looked at the crashed spaceship and put out a few of the stray fires. He wandered up to the spaceship and it towered above him. He heard a noise behind him.

The security guard turned around and spotted something tall in the smoke near him. He cursed and started to run for his car. The monster started to chase him.

The monster ran on all fours. It had grey skin and a long snout. It had sharp teeth that bulged from its jaw, a grotesque assortment of slimy yellow fangs. The eyes were completely black, like a shark. It rushed at the security guard and attacked.

The guard turned around to defend himself with the fire extinguisher. The beast bit down on the compressed container and the extinguisher foam escaped from the bite marks. The beast dropped the extinguisher and the guard shot twice.

The alien wolf grabbed the man in its jaw and twisted. It used its front claws to hold him down and ripped the security guard’s head clean off. The four legged creature then stood up on two legs and dragged the body towards the crash site. The security guard’s car was still running, the driver door was open and the cab light was on. The pizza was still warm.
