Outer space, Kuiper belt

In the Kuiper belt of our solar system lays several billion asteroids of varying shapes and sizes, the odd planetoid and today: a rather large comet. It was roughly the size of a skyscraper and unlike the other comets in the solar system; this one had come from another galaxy. It was travelling at near-light speed and left a spectacular tail of dust, steam and ice fragments as it streaked through the void of space. It smashed straight through several asteroids, shattering them into thousands of pieces, which smashed into more asteroids causing a large chain reaction in the belt.

The comet flew deeper into the system, zooming past Pluto, Neptune and Uranus. When it got to Saturn its course changed slightly towards the gas giant due to the large gravity field projected by it, altering its course so it now headed into Saturn's rings. The monster comet ploughed through the ice fragments, creating a trail of destruction in its wake, as it charged through the now fluctuating and shimmering ring system, the very fragments of ice that give the rings their unique look in the solar system started compacting into the comet, enlarging the gigantic iceberg in space.

When the comet finally left Saturn's rings, they were almost unrecognizable: the comet had completely distorted the shape of the rings, making them look warped and twisted, plus there was a massive gap where the comet had passed through it, like someone had sliced a hole in it with a knife. The comet itself was now much larger, now the size of a city block and reeling into the asteroid belt. (A/N: I decided not to include Jupiter because I can't think of what to do for that planet.) Smashing a path through the masses of rock, creating a chain reaction like in the Kuiper belt.

The comet had lost a good chunk of itself getting through the asteroid belt, now down to the size of a skyscraper again; it was also glowing white hot and its tail grew in size as it approached the sun. It was now heading directly for Earth and more specifically the USA. As the comet was passing by the Earths moon, it was being observed by an astronaut doing a repair job on a satellite. Inside his helmet he glanced at the large bright light that was the comet and raised an eyebrow.

"Hey Houston? Are you getting this through my helmet cam?" He asked into the radio. "That's affirmative Sat 1, we see the bogey." Came a voice from the other end, he sounded like Overlord from Call of duty 6: M W 2. "Ourscientists are looking into it now, keep tracking the bogey Sat 1." Houston commanded. "That's the only thing I can do right now." Sat 1 replied. The light just kept on growing as it neared the planet…heading straight for Sat 1. "Uh…Houston? I think I have a problem; it's getting closer to me!" Sat 1 stated into the radio.

Houston didn't reply. "Houston do you read? The bogey is getting closer, I repeat: The goddamn bogey is getting clo-" before he could finish the comet slammed into the satellite he was working on; shattering it into hundred pieces on impact. One fragment of debris slammed into the astronaut, killing him instantly. "Sat 1 report, report?" Houston finally radioed in; but it was already too late. The comet meanwhile was melting as it penetrated the atmosphere, transforming into a fireball and was shrinking as it travelled.

At Townsville park, 12.30 PM.

Inside a waiting patrol car, two coppers were chatting to each other. One was a sergeant in his thirties and the other was an officer in his twenties. "So did you get that crook eventually?" the officer asked the sarge. "Yeah I got…with help from the Powerpuffs." The sarge replied. "Man, I don't to get on the wrong side of them!" He stated. "Relax, we're the law! They won't do anything to harm a cop." The younger officer replied, taking another bite out of his donut. "Yeah, I suppose you're right, come on lets get relieved."

With that the cops drove off, about 5 minutes later a tiny comet crashed into the woods behind where it was parked, the comet broke in two and what looked like a large blood red plant seed twice the size of a football could be seen. It then sprouted a green tendril with a small bud on the end. But instead of opening into a flower, the tendril somehow drilled into the ground and took the seed with it. Seconds later the ground shook slightly and a giant bud with 4 large leaves grew out the ground, it then opened into a gigantic flower roughly 5 metres wide with hundreds of small red and green triangular petals each only a centimetre long.

The flower stopped growing at ground level and from under the leaves grew many green tendrils with more buds, they grew to about a before opening into more flowers, but these flowers were much more vibrant in colour, virtually every colour of the rainbow was on these flowers, which were roughly the size of dinner plates. An owl flew towards the alien plant, it raised a flower stalk in the direction of the bird and something amazing happened; the flower began to rapidly fluctuate in colour, red became green then blue then yellow then violet and red again, all in a second, every second.

The owl was transfixed by the truly beautiful sight; its eyes began to mirror the colour changing pattern of the plant's flower. It slowly flew closer to the flower, completely hypnotized by its beauty. The plant, still emitting it's visually alluring and stunning colour change pattern, began to lean its stem and tilt its attractive flower so it was facing upwards, allowing the mesmerized bird to land on it.

BIG mistake, the moment the bird landed, the flower began to sprout what looked like red teeth around its edges, roughly the same kind of teeth you would see on a Venus fly trap, only red instead of white. The owl was still hypnotized and never paid attention to the teeth…until it was too late. The flower suddenly snapped shut, trapping the poor bird inside. The owl, having come to his senses, started struggling to escape, but that only caused the plant to squeeze it even tighter.

The plant then lowered its flower and the trapped owl to the centre of the large flower on the ground, the inner most petals folded outwards to reveal a mouth, it looked a lot like the Sarlacc from Star wars, only without the beak in the middle and the tendrils were black and covered in sharp red thorns, plus a larger tendril, about twice as wide came out the center of the 'mouth'. This tendril looked like a giant black sundew leaf. (A/N: a real carnivorous plant! Only sundews are green with small red sticky tendrils covering their leaves.) The flower holding the owl slowly opened, the owl inside writhed as the tendril wrapped round its body, the small sticky red tentacles making escape virtually impossible.

The tendril then pulled the unfortunate bird inside the mouth, the owl hooted in fear and wriggled as it was dragged to its fate. The plant seemed to hiss as it pulled its victim inside it. The petals on the main flower waved inwards to try and push the bird deeper inside. The smaller tendrils sliced into the owl with their sharp thorns while the main tendril tightened its grip on the bird as it sank inside the plant.

Finally the plant managed to completely devour the owl, nothing was left of the creature accept a few floating feathers. The plant then began to send creeper tendrils into the woods, smaller tendrils branched off as the plant really began its growth.
