A strange creature is on the prowl. Story in 55 words.
Driven to despair by the smell, the creature crawled out of the sewer. Its blurred vision picked up a fading mass. Frantic pursuing brought it closer to the scent. Thirsty, the creature attacked. The mass screamed.

The woman’s body discovered next morning looked gruesome. Shriveled and mutilated, it contained not a single drop of blood.
