Elle and the Bug

The sky above upstate New York was filled with a bright red light as a cylindrical shaped object streaked across the sky before crashing into the silent forest. A moment later, a hulking shadow appeared for a moment before disappearing amongst the trees.

Cue MiB theme song.

Morning found the forest filled with agents in black suits.

"What do we have, Elle?" Agent Kay said as he came over to the blonde agent that was inspecting the crash site with his partner Jay right behind him.

"Spectral analysis indicates a possible bug but I'll need more samples to be sure." Elle said as she turned from her analysis to talk to them.

"A bug," Jay grumbled as he and Kay left Elle to her work and headed for the woods. It seemed like those creepy insects showed up every time MiB turned around. He just hoped that this one wasn't a queen.

A few minutes later, Elle was wrapped up in her work when she heard a noise behind her. She turned but there was no one there. All of the other agents were searching for evidence of the bug in the woods and Elle decided that the sound was caused by nerves. Even though she knew that there were ten agents nearby, the dark, forboding trees made it seem as if she was the only person in the world.

Elle had just started back to work when she heard the noise again. She spun around large dark shape came swooping down on her. A Bug!! She dodged to the side and rolled behind a bush as she fumbled for a weapon. There was a terrible burning pain in her arm that made it hard to move. She could hear the bug coming as she collapsed to the ground. There was no way she could get a weapon out in time. She tried to crawl away but her entire body felt numb and her mind seemed to be lost in a fog. As she felt the bug grab her and lift her off of the ground, the last thing that she saw was the jagged gash in her arm. The bug must have scratched her.
