A/N: I'm so glad that Inside The Field, a successful fanfiction from Shinigamilover2, had a nice ending and an upcoming sequel. Woohoo! Ok, let's get on with this one. In this chapter, may blood will shed. Well... probably. Maybe in the next? I dunno. dammit, I knew I should've listed the plots first. Anyway, just enjoy.


Claws and the rest of his friends were getting bored and tired. Sam got a toolbox under the counter and went back to fix the fax machine. Celia fell asleep and is now leaning on an ice cream freezer. Mike is still unconscious. Claws is chugging down a bottle of beer since Eddy wasn't there to make him pay and Richard doesn't seem to care nor notice. Amanda is reading her book. Brock is sleeping on the floor. Claire is looking around the mini-mart because she is getting bored. Sulley and Travis are still talking about stuff to pass time. Richhard, as usual, is guarding the entrance. Everyone is waiting for Eddy to come back with the first-aid kit. Amanda notices Caroline sitting near a comic stand and is reading a Total Girl Magazine.

"Hey, your name's Caroline, right?" Amanda asked as she approached her.

"Yes."

"Don't worry. I'm sure your aunt and uncle are fine." Amanda said, trying to give her comfort. Suddenly, Caroline started smelling her.

"Why do you smell like burnt grilled cheese sandwich?" Caroline asked, causing Amanda to giggle a bit.

"Me and my friends were in a car accident." Amanda said. "So, what brought you here?"

"Richard found me. Me and Aunt Kelly and Uncle Gordon were walking home. Then, there were those white clouds out there. There were big insect monsters that goes 'Rawr'." Caroline said as she imitated a roar.

"Big insect monsters?"

"Yeah, like huge flies." Caroline said, making Amanda more and more curious.

"Oookay. So, do you think Richard's a nice man?" Amanda asked, changing the subject.

"No. He smells like socks and he has a weird tail. And he always talk about super... Supernarraru... Superlananara..." Caroline was struggling to say the last word.

"Carol, it's pronounced supernatural." Richard corrected her, overhearing the conversation.

"Hey, why do you keep doing that?" Claire finally had enough of the cop's behavior and asked him.

"Doing what?" Richard asked, not knowing what he has done wrong.

"Filling her head with that sort of garbage! She could get nightmares thanks to you!" Claire exclaimed, causing Celia and Brock to wake up and everyone gazing at the commotion. Caroline got scared as she hugged Amanda who hugged her back and covered her ears, so that she wouldn't hear their raging coversation and vulgar words.

"Hey, what the hell's going on?" Brock grumbled as he got up and noticed Claire confronting Richard.

"You should talk, you stupid goth! Judging by the looks on your face, you might be some ugly witch casting some sort of spell you picked from the Internet that'll make humans appear out of nowhere and eat our kids while they sleep. Ooohhh. I'm so scared... you damn bitch!" Richard infuriatingly said. It was so loud, Sam ran back to find out what was happening.

"Hey, don't talk to my girlfriend, you shit of a cop!" Brock stepped in and yelled at him. What Brock said made the college students (minus Mike) surprised as Sulley spit out his drink.

"Wait! You two are dating!?" Sulley asked who was a little surprised. but they ignored him as the commotion went on.

"How dare you insult the authorities, you jackass! I should have you arrested right now!" Richard exclaimed.

"For what!? Just because he called you dick which you are one!?" Claire infuriately exclaimed.

"If all of this is over, I swear to whatever god you believe in, I'll make sure both of you will be eating your word!" Richard exclaimed. Suddenly, Claws stepped in and tried to break them up.

"Whoa. Whoa. Easy there, fellas. Brock, Claire, we are on vacation, ok? We're outside of campus to have some fun and not get on other's throats. Richard, you're a cop and we should trust you to protect us from... whatever's out there. But that girl's... what? 8 years old? Could you kindly do your job without mentally scarring her for the rest of her life?" Claws said, trying to get them to calm down before things turned from bad to worse. Richard's reply was turning his back on them.

Meanwhile, the woman is walking down the empty and foggy streets of Growlburg. She finally reaches her destination which is a few meters away.

"Feast on them to your heart's content." the woman said as she left, leaving mysterious figures heading towards Growlburg Gas Station.

Inside the mini-mart, Sulley looks at the wall clock and asks, "Hey, shouldn't Eddy be back by now?"

"Oh yeah, he should've been back by now. It's been 1 and half an hour now." Claws said as Richard suddenly started ranting.

"Something must've taken him. Something out there in that endless sea of white. Something waiting for one of us to be stupid enough to go out there and get ourselves killed. Something that's waiting for one of us to become their prey."

"Ok, that's enough, Rich." Travis said as he approached him. "Ranting about this supernatural shit isn't helping us at all. Especially to Carloine. When will you stop all of this? If you have some sick religion, could you at least keep it to yourself or in your church?"

Before Richard could say something back...

"AAAAHHHHH! IT'S THE MONSTERS!" Caroline yelled as everyone looked outside.

Everyone gasps as there are black insect-like creatures hovering outside and creeping on the glass windows.

"W-W-What are those things?" Sam asked, being gripped with fear.

"The new era has begun. Behold, everyone, the new creatures that will inhabit this wretched and oppressed world!" Richard exclaimed.

"Oh. My. God." Brock said as Claire hid behind him.

"What do you mean by that!?" Claire asked Richard who took out a black book from his pockets and started scanning the pages until he found the page he was looking for.

"Here it is. 'The Noir Era shalt begin on the day when this world is clouded by every souls' sinful hearts. Then, the liberators, creatures of pitch black darkness, shalt rid the world all of the souls and purifies the land from unforgiven mistakes and souls of dreaded despair. All evil shalt fall into an utter abyss where the new god shalt feast on them and rise from beneath the earth to rule the world, the Noir Era.'." Richard read the words on the book.

"Look, this is insane. Th-This is just some prank. This is a prank, right?" Sulley asked worriedly, but judging on everybody's faces, it wasn't.

"This is the end for us monsters. They are the new inhabitants of this world. It's inevitable. You can do whatever you want. It won't matter anyways. We will all die." Richard said.


A/N: Wasn't that thrilling, blood-curdling, and goosebumping? Who knew that the lion/scorpion hybrid police officer was a demented religious cult believer? Well, there's got to be one. Anyways, I need some help. I've got a music project where I have to play guitar. And I don't know how. Could some of you guitarist readers give me some pointers? It would be really appreciated.
