Attack of the Slithithians Ch. 1
I awoke on a beautiful Sunday morning with a feeling of dread. I got dressed and went downstairs and turned on the news. Sunny bounded over to me and started to whine. I was just when I was about to walk her, a red alert came on the screen. It said a string of mass murders was happening all over the US of A. I ran upstairs and woke up Shelby and Blake. Shelby was the hardest to wake. She was groggy and it took ten minutes to wake her up.
When we got downstairs, they thought I was crazy. They were yelling at me before I started. When I quieted them down and told them how entire neighborhoods had been murdered, they stopped.
"How did that happen without warning, and with no correlation?" Blake asked.
All of a sudden, I had a flashback. I'm going to tell you this because it was not my memory. It was a man's. After further research I found him to be named Mike White. He was about 40 and was 5'11 ish, a little on the heavy side. He had bright orange hair and blue eyes. I found him to be one of the first murdered.
In this memory he was in his red station wagon with his daughter, teaching her to drive. All of a sudden, a bear appeared out of nowhere and got hit by the car. It went to the side of the road and died, but the car was unscathed. All of a sudden there was a voice from the backseat.
"We are the Slithithians. We claim earth for ours."
He turned around and said, "No, you can't. The earth belongs to all it's inhabitants."
"Oh, stupid human," all of a sudden he appeared in the backseat. "We are stronger than you, smarter than you, faster than you. Taste death."
Then there was a burning pain in my side and the taste of blood in my mouth and I came back to reality.
Shelby was right next to me, poking me in the arm and waving her hand in front of my face. Blake just looked at me like I had six heads.
I shook my head and asked, "What happened?"
"You zoned out for about two minutes out of nowhere." Blake talked as if this were obvious.
"Well, I know what caused the murders now."
"You do?" Shelby was utterly shocked.
"Yes." I told them about the memory.
"That memory is yours?" Blake asked.
"No, it's not, and that's what the creepy part is."
I went to the computer and started to type the story down, but the computer switched off. The power had gone out. I tried my iPod, nothing. My phone, nothing. No electricity, even in batteries.
I shuddered; a feeling of dread fell over the small house we lived in. Called a friend who lived across the state. He came and took Sunny. Then we started to prepare. Without talking, we knew. We were going to war with the Slithithians.
