They Hunger
Chapter 1: Arrival
"You're listening to BMRF Radio. We interrupt this broadcast to bring you a special news report. Strange atmospheric phenomena have been reported in the local area. Meteorologists have yet to determine the nature of the strange electrical discharges, but we will keep you informed of any developments as they are brought to us. We now return to our previous programming."
You turn off the radio. You got the gist of the report, and besides, you hated that song anyway. Coming to this little town was a great idea." Your mind begins to wander. "I should be able to get some ideas for my next book." As you drive through the backroads of the little town, you think it is a nice place, but something about it seems odd, as if the town was not just a town, but something underneath was simply hiding, waiting for a chance to strike. You dismiss these thoughts, blaming it on lack of sleep for the past two days. You take a left turn, heading towards the church, as rain begins to fall. With nothing but a brief flash, the lightning strikes ahead of you, causing you to swerve into the river below.
