"The Enemy"
7/6/11
Daria and Jane were walking along, being sarcastic and whatnot as always. Suddenly, Jane turned her head as they were passing a park and saw a lone chicken standing by the monkey bars. It narrowed its blank eyes at the artist and seemed to sneer.
"Wait a minute," Jane said, snarling. "I know that chicken!"
As Daria watched, Jane pulled a bazooka out of thin air and sighted on the delicious, delicious menace in the playground.
"Tell the Colonel I said hello!" Jane crowed, and fired.
There were several horrible explosions as first the missile hit, and then the glycerine in the play sand in the sand box ignited. It took out the jungle gym and swings with it, and when all was said and done, the park was a hellish inferno.
Jane grinned.
"Take that, suckah!"
Daria, beside her where they sheltered behind an over-turned car, stared in shock and incredulity.
Jane's smile faltered as something seemed to be moving in the flames.
From within the destruction, a small white form emerged. Its eyes glowing red, a shine of silver gleamed from a gash over its beak.
And then all hell broke loose.
