\chapter{Brain Freeze}
|
|
|
|
In the ubiquitous convenience store a very inconvenient truth was coming
|
|
to fruition. Gary Norbinton, age 11, jerked the cherry cola Slurpy lever
|
|
and set his cup to recieve the other worldly treat. He was about to be a
|
|
host, to have his mind and body taken over by unseen aliens lurking in
|
|
sweet frozen cherry murk.
|
|
|
|
``Hurry up now.'' his grandfather sputtered. ``My leg is getting
|
|
swollen.''
|
|
|
|
Suddenly Luke Bavarious kicked in the glass door with his gun
|
|
drawn. ``Kid, don't touch that!'' It was too late, he had already
|
|
sipped. Gary's eyes went cross and his complexion aquired a green
|
|
tint. Vomit spritzed out his ears. ``What's wrong son!?'' his
|
|
grandfather yelped.
|
|
|
|
``It's too late!'' Bavarious released the safety on his Baretta and took
|
|
aim, fired and split the kid's head open. Gary's eyes straightened. He
|
|
used his hands to push the sides of his skull back together and lurched
|
|
forward faster than any man has ever lurched ever.
|
|
|
|
``Please don't come again!'' the clerk cried as Gary ripped grandpa's
|
|
gamey leg off and chased Bavarious into the parking lot with it.
|
|
|
|
He took cover behind a rusty El Camino. The driver exclaimed, ``What the
|
|
hell is going on?''
|
|
|
|
``No time to explain!'' Bavarious yelled out. At that moment grandpa's
|
|
leg was hurled through the windshield with such force that it impaled
|
|
the driver where he sat. ``Son of a bitch!'' were his final words.
|
|
|
|
He put a bullet in Gary's leg and in his stomach. In both wounds, cherry
|
|
flavored carbonated frozen beverage exploded out of the holes. He was
|
|
unperturbed.
|
|
|
|
Bavarious opened the driver side door and pulled the leg impaled corpse
|
|
from the seat and got in. There was a box of bloody nachos on the
|
|
passenger seat. ``What a waste!'' He slammed the gear into reverse,
|
|
gunned it and aimed the car at Gary. Peeling out he aimed for the alien
|
|
but when he hit the boy's body it was the same as hitting a brick wall.
|
|
|
|
In a sinister alien barritone, the voice from another world in the body
|
|
of Gary Norbinton, age 11, came the words:
|
|
|
|
``We are here. We will kill you all, one by one. No mercy for the sugar
|
|
addicted monkey men who inhabit this planet. Surrender now!''
|
|
|
|
Bavarious checked the last round in the chamber. ``I better write my
|
|
name on that.'' he sighed sullenly.
