It came from outer space (Friday Fictioneers)

I try to catch the attention of anyone walking past.
People wave.
Ugh, not helpful!
I shout but no one seems to hear me, or they do and would rather not get involved.
I glance over my shoulder at the growing blob of tentacles on the kitchen floor. It’s getting bigger.
I have no idea what it is.
I bought the ball — egg I guess — at a fair. It looked cute. Painted in pretty swirls that almost seemed to move. Yeah… clearly a mistake.
All my tech fritzed when it … hatched. Including my phone.
“Someone get help!”

I would take the risk and jump!
Yes I think I would too!
That’s how it always is. One innocent little mistake and you end civilisation as we have known it
Yup! Won’t take much I think. Watch out for those trinkets
Oh oh … rip a sheet, tie some knots, shimmy down. …
Great idea!
🙂 I don’t got ‘nuf hair to do The Rapunzel, so one must be creative … 😉
Good thing she only got one. I heard they were cheaper by the dozen. A haunting tale, Laurie.
Oh my gosh, Bill, that’s a terrible thought!
Oh.
I could picture it, feel the desperation! Yikes! Where’s the flame-thrower thingamajigg bazooka blower-upper when you need one?!
Oooo flamethrower… great suggestion! 🤣
Yeah, time to get a bit more desperate, methinks. That thing isn’t going back in the egg any time soon!
Yeah, you are so right!
I bought some extra large eggs this morning, and now I’m a little concerned!
Oooooo be careful when you take them out of the fridge!
Oh my gosh, I hope someone takes her seriously and gets a ladder up to the window soon. What a nightmare to buy a “curiosity” that hatches!
Gaaahh! I hate squishy things with tentacles!
Same!
Oh, stellar, if not creepy, take on the prompt.
Thank you!
Dear Laurie,
I think you hit the top of the creepy charts. Nicely done.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thank you, Rochelle! 😆
lol maybe it just wants to be friends 😀
Oooo, maybe indeed… could be hungry too! 😆
