“Sir, the creature is breaching its containment!”
That statement was said by a very concerned looking man in a suit, wearing dark glasses. Obviously an agent of some kind. Someone who looked to be his superior, but was dressed the same way said, “there is no way of creature that small could do much damage, but contain it before it has a chance to grow.”
The first man looked a little nervous and said, “Yes sir, but how, sir?”
“Try this.” the second man handed the first man a weapon of some sort. It looked kind of like a gun.
“Yes sir!” the man ran away. While his superior started barking orders and everyone around him trying to get control of the situation before it turned into a catastrophe.
Minutes later, a different man dressed the same way as first ran up to the superior and said between breaths, “Sir! It has escaped and is growing rapidly! What should be our next course of action?”
“Can you still see it?” his superior asked him
“For now,” was the response.
“Try this.” the man in charge handed the other guy a larger weapon of some sort.
“Yes sir!” and away the man ran.
The problem wasn’t getting solved. The man in charge was barking orders and people in dark suits were scrambling about like ants, trying to make things right, while the creature just kept growing larger and larger, until you couldn’t see it at all.
Somehow, the creature had just disappeared and the men were really frightened now. Scared for their lives and their jobs. They had screwed up big time.
“Warn the local law enforcement agencies,” commanded the superior, “make sure the dean at the college is aware of a present danger and that he should get the kids as far away from the school as possible!”
But it was too late. The creature had already leapt into the middle of the school, crushing the middle of a lawn, which in turn leaked massive amounts of water, filling up the valley-like field.
“Sir! It crushed the lawn at the college!”
“Do you have any idea where it is headed?”
“No sir, we can’t see it!”
The man in charge looked away, his eyebrows furrowed and his bright blue eyes would have given away how frightened he really was if you could see them. After a moment, he stood up straight, his jaw set, determined.
“Lets find this monster.”
Much Love,
