Try to pass the lump quietly.

    by: BlackMirror Author IconMail Icon
Dimming his light, Andrew stilled his breathing and pushed forward into the gaping maw of shadow. The lump on the floor stirred into motion as Andrew passed. A flash of pain struck the back of Andrew's shin as he felt tight pressure grip onto him. Andrew attempted to pivot in hopes to turn his light on what had grabbed, but he had lost his footing and was tugged to the floor. His flash light slipped out of his hands, falling a few feet away onto the tiled floor, spinning to illuminating the cadaverous sunken eyed former employee that had grabbed him by the shin. Andrew kicked at creature's head with his free leg, attempting to free himself, but to no avail.

"Get the fuck off me." Andrew sputtered, as the creature crawled over his body. Its flesh was cold and clammy. Grasping onto his browning, Andrew leveled the pistol at the Rot's head and pulled the trigger. A muzzles flash and bark summoned a litany movement and dull groans that emanated all through out the store. The bullet ripped open a ragged hole in the monster's face, but that did little to slow its advance. The monster revealed a rotted smile before hiding its teeth and inch deep into Andrew's stomach. Again, Andrew fired his pistol, but the shadows all around Andrew now stirred, encompassing him, and soon, consuming him.
