Terminal
“‘Nearly home, my sweet,’ Martha cooed, as Chester spotted the small farmhouse up ahead.
Then, as he happened to glance over the fence to one side, he stopped dead as something caught his attention. ‘My God! What on earth did that?’ he gasped, recoiling at the sight of carcases of the dead sheep strewn around the place. They had been eviscerated, their bodies brutally ripped apart and all their organs strewn over the ground. ‘Armagi?’ ‘No, that was my Brights,’ Martha answered proudly. She hadn’...t slowed as she headed towards the farmhouse. ‘They have to eat – just the same as us.’ ‘Not quite the same as us,’ Chester whispered. Remaining where he was, he continued to watch as, further along the track, Martha gave a couple of low whistles and waved her hand. She could have been directing sheepdogs, not the weird and strangely wonderful creatures from the depths of the Earth.
The Brights zipped over Chester’s head, so fast that it was impossible to see them clearly, like smoke or mist caught in a high wind.MoreLess
