Here batter batter (Friday Fictioneers)

The roar nearly lifted the stadium off the ground. The screams that followed almost brought it down. The attack was swift, brutal and bloody. More died in the stampede to escape the stadium than in the monster’s initial attack. The creature was enormous. It burst from the ground in the center of the diamond eating the pitcher first. The giant creature was followed by three smaller ones. Millions of legs, mouths full of razor sharp teeth the size of a fully grown man. Then more came up out of the earth. All over the world. We didn’t stand a chance.

  1. Ah. Worums. Lovely

  2. Sounds like the start of a disaster flick. I imagine there’s a small band of warriors who will figure out a way to take them down!

  3. I was going to a stadium this weekend – does anyone want my ticket?

  4. Dear Laurie,

    Wow, what a frightening day at the old ball game. These days one worries about mass shooters. I’m sure no one was prepared for a monster of such magnitude.

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

  5. Well I bet that spoiled the game 🙂

  6. Horrible thoughts. Well done.

  7. Well, this gave me a shiver. We certainly did not stand a chance. Talk about an extinction event.

  8. Good reason to stay away from sports stadiums, where you’ll become a human hot dog for a horrible monster!

  9. Great fear/tension in this wee creepy tale. Well done.

  10. Some survived to write the story and others to read it. 🙂

  11. Such a chilling scenario. I keep reading about UFOs diving into the ocean. That’s probably where they’ll emerge from when the attacks begin…
