… it came down the drainpipe… by Lexi

The moon glowed red. Everyone’s eyes were bloodshot. Now the Earth was a zombie following the moon as it slowly drifted sideways. Even the houses were haunted by the moons hypnotic stare; fire places suddenly burst out colossal flames of orange and scarlet. Something bad was happening. Then the moon started started to get smaller rapidly until “BAM!” the moon had popped. Everyone woke up from their trance confused and worried. They took shelter under a near by tree as it rained a shaft of moonbeams. It came down the drainpipe, before disappearing into the ground never to be seen again.

  1. What an unearthly tale Lexi, somewhere between science fiction, horror, suspense and thriller! I particularly like the phrase 'the moon's hypnotic stare' because of the images it made me conjure up.
    And of course, like all your readers, I wonder what 'it' was? My imagination is working overtime!
    I'll be recommending your post to be included in the Showcase. Well done and keep rising to the Challenge.
