The Flesh Beast III

You wake up to hear something outside the door of your room. It was weeks since you remembered the reason why you were in this hell hole. You were protesting against your parents for making you into a slave. You were right and they were wrong. Now that your in the insane Asylum for boys and girls you might as well make the most of it. You hear from the other children about a beast that eats children and your scared that your going to be next.

            Once again you hear something outside your door and you get out of bed to see what it is. You reach for the door knob with your nine year old hand and open the door. It’s Jamie and Charlotte and they look at you with a smile. “Hey, I heard something down the hallway from our bedrooms,” replied Jamie. “Yea, it’s probably the Flesh Beast!” yelled Charlotte. “Shh,” you say, “you want to wake the dead?” “Sorry,” she answered. “Quiet, I hear something,” said Jamie as he held out his hand. You become suspicious because you feel like your being toyed around by your two friends, but you follow them down the hallway. It’s very dark, but you’re unable to see what’s in front of you. Suddenly, the moon unveils from the clouds and you can see what’s in front of you.  The moon is full and your able to hear the wind blow through the bushes and trees because the windows are open. It seems like all is well and keep following your friends who are in front of you. Suddenly you stop when they do after hearing something very dreadful. “Where’s my flesh?” you look ahead to see a pair of yellow eyes stare back at the three of you. You scream in horror and run back leaving your two friends behind just as they scream. There’s no time to turn around to see where it is and you don’t care. All you care about is getting yourself out of harms way, but you hear a thumping sound behind you.  The ripping sound of a chainsaw the scream of one of your two friends echoes through out the hallway. You turn your head to see what it is and watch it tear the head off of Jamie with a single snap of its jaws.  You can see it’s shiny teeth run up and down it’s jaw bone and your skin begins to crawl.  The blood in your body begins to curdle and you can feel your legs become weak as it charges after Charlotte.  She screams and shouts for you to help her, but your body is numb and you can’t move.  You close your eyes and begin to cry as you hear the crunch of her bones and hear it let out a belch.

            You finally get the strength in your heart to run and you hope that it doesn’t grab your legs and eat them. Each stride you make you hear the beast trot like dog after you as it repeats, “where’s my flesh!”  You get to the door and can’t open it. Then you hear the beast growl at you and slowly turn around as tears well up in your eyes. You look at the eight foot beast and watch the teeth run up and down its jaw bone like a chainsaw as it yells “where’s my flesh!” You urinate on the floor because you’re so scared that’s when you close your eyes to expect the worst and let out a scream. 

            All of a sudden you open your eyes after screaming for a long time and you wake the dead. All the children get out of their rooms to see what happens and see you in your pajamas soaked with  piss as well as piss on the floor. Your cheeks are covered with sweat and tears and you take deep breaths. Mrs. Knealson is walking up to you in her black night gown. She looks very disturbed and you momentarily see the iris of her eyes turn yellow then back to brown. The other children start laughing at you because you urinated in you pajamas and woke up the constable.  “Get back to your rooms!” demanded Mrs. Knealson as she waved her finger out front. The kids close the door and the old women turns to you for an answer. “What seems to be the problem?” “I saw what’s been eating the children,” you say as you point to where Jamie and Charlotte’s bodies would have been, but when you look you see that they’re gone and the blood is gone. There is no evidence that they ever were lost. “I don’t know what you’re talking about?” replied the constable as she smiled.”  You start to get scared as you see her pointy teeth, “but I saw it.” “You saw what your mind wanted you to see,” answered Mrs. Knealson. “Jamie and Charlotte were eaten alive!” “I don’t know a Jamie or a Charlotte and your going to do me services until the day you die,” growled Ms. Knealson as she grabs you by the ear and forces you down the corridor and stair case to a room full of God Father clocks. “Get in their and don’t come out until every clock is clean as a whistle!” she yells as she turns the light on in the room. You look around to see the numerous amounts of clocks and near by is a skeleton with a pale of water. “Adam was a good servant, but he kept missing spots, but now your replacing him, please do a good job this time!” yelled Mrs. Knealson as she left and slammed the door.

            You look around and you fill up the bucket in a sink with a water pump. You turn around quickly after hearing each clock whisper, where’s my flesh.  In the glass you can see the image of the flesh beast opening it’s mouth and you can also see arms creep in and out of the clock. You let out a scream and realize your never going home again and then suddenly the light goes out and you can hear footsteps and the sound of a wood splitter echo through your ears.
