Prologue
The wind howled and thunder cracked. Lightning lit up the sky in short flashes. The sky was blacker than a shadowy forest at midnight. A thunderous roar echoed across the valley. A scream filled the air only to be cut off abruptly. The sound of tearing flesh and cracking bones could be heard, but only just. A great best unfurled its wing and flew off careeying half its meal with it, blood dripping as it travelled.
Police chief Darwin Lockheary was on his way home when his cell phone rang. “Hello? Yes this is chief Lockheary….. Mmmmm ok ill be right there.” He sighed. Turning his car around Darwin headed towards the new destination. He arrived twenty minutes later. “What seems to….. oh my god what happened?!” The Chief turned a ghastly white as he looked around. Strips of rotting, bloody flesh was hanging from trees. Blood covered the ground, appearing to have been sprayed by a hose. He turned and saw the head of a young male right in front of him. It had clearly been torn off the body. His blue eyes were wide open, filled with a fear that chilled Darwin to the bone.The top part of the head was gone and the brains were grey, worm-like bunched into a ball. As Darwin watched they started to move and he realised with horror that they were worms.
“Chief, you ok? You look a little pale there.” The voice startled him and he turned to see Fey looking at him with concern. “Yeah I’m ok, it’s just really disgusting.” He replied, looking around again. “You don’t see much of this do you?” remarked Fey. “Mmmmmm.... I usually work in the office.” Replied Darwin. He was swaying on his feet. “Come on Id better take you back to headquarters.” Fey said. Without waiting for a reply she took his arm and led him to the car.
From a distance a mysterious man in chain-Mail watched the scene. “Its time”. He whispered. He turned towards the town, and wlked through the forest, vanishing into the night.
