COMMUNITY TERROR Read online

  “Yes, baby. Yes, I’ll be nice. I forgive you,” she screamed and pulled her arm around to try and push me back.

  “Move that fucking hand,” I said as I grabbed her arm tightly pinning it on her back. The louder she screamed the more aroused I became. I stroked harder and faster until I exploded deep inside of her. “Ughh,” I groaned as my body trembled in pleasure.

  I slowly pulled my dick back just before it came out and back into her giving us both a sweet teasing sensation until my penis went soft. I pulled all the way out of her watching our cum drip out of her pussy.

  “Sssss,” Anais let out a seductive hissing sound. She looked back at me with lust in her eyes, letting me know that I have done my job. I backed off of the bed and walked towards the bathroom. “Where you going?” she asked.

  “I’m going to take a shower, baby. Now you wanna watch my movements? Not too long ago, you wanted nothing to do with me,” I said with a grin on my face while turning on the shower and stepping in.

  “Hmm, that was before you gave me that sweet dick. Now, I see why the women go crazy for your books. They want to read and maybe experience those sex scenes. I can’t even blame them. Only if they knew, geesh,” Anais said and began to giggle.

  “No, they love my sick and twisted mind, baby,” I said over the loud running water. I could see Anais through the glass shower door at the double sink washing off between her legs. “Remember, front to back, baby,” I screamed over the water causing us both to burst out in laughter.

  'Ahhhhh!' The sound of the man screaming in my mind caused me to drop the soap.

  “Are you okay in there?”

  “I’m okay, baby,” I replied while picking up the soap. 'What the hell is going on with me? I must get this out of my head,' I thought to myself and finished up with my shower.

  Once I was done, I walked into the closet and put on some grey sweatpants and a grey tank top. I walked around the house to make sure all the doors were locked and the alarm was set. I went back upstairs and down the hall to Niomi’s room to see her fast asleep with her TV stuck on Disney channel. I shut the door and went back into my room to see Anais's naked butt knocked out and lightly snoring. I turned off the lights, climbed in the bed, and laid in a weird angle so that my head was resting on her big soft butt. In a matter of seconds, I was sound asleep

  Chapter 5

  “Grrr! Grrr!” the sound of growling woke me up. My heart raced as I tried to figure out where the sounds were coming from. 'Should I wake up Anais?' I thought to myself, 'No, I don’t want to do that. I’m the man of the house. What would I look like waking up my woman when I’m supposed to be the protector of the family?'

  “Grrr! Grrr!” the growling sound got louder.

  “Fuck that, I’m waking her ass up,” I said out loud to myself, “Baby, get up,” I said shaking her on her thigh.

  “What? I’m sleeping, baby,” Anais said and turned over. I could hear her snoring lightly again.

  “Grrr! Grrr! Grrr!” the growling was even harder and echoed through the house.

  I blinked my eyes twice and I swear I saw red glowing eyes staring straight at me from in the bathroom. I nervously continued to stare at the huge eyes as I feared for my life. All I could think about was the guns that were in the closet and how I would get to them? If I move, will that thing attack? I tried hard to see its face and body frame, but couldn’t because of the darkness. I slowly moved my hand back on to Anais’s body. “Baby, wake up,” I said in a whisper, but she didn’t budge. The glowing red eyes looked as though they were getting closer. 'This is all in my head…..this is all in my head,' I repeated to myself then shut my eyes and reopened them. I exhaled in relief when I noticed that the glowing eyes were gone.

  “Grrr! Grr!” the moment of clarity and doubt was completely gone. It sounded as if the growling surrounded the house and was crawling around on the top of my roof. I popped up out of bed and slowly walked towards the bathroom. When I got to the door way, I cautiously stuck my hand in the bathroom and quickly flicked the light switch. I scanned the bathroom and dashed into the walk in closet. The safe was on the top shelf so I reached up and twisted the key that was already in it. Once I opened the safe, I pulled out a chrome 9mm handgun and pulled the chamber, jumping a bullet into the head of the gun. I felt brave once more and my heart stopped pounding.

  “Ahhh! Help me, help me,” my heart began to race again when I heard a guy screaming outside, “Why will no one help me?” he said and I rushed out of the bathroom.

  I walked to my bedroom window which was facing the backyard and peeped through it. I bent the blinds just enough for me to see out, but not enough for anyone to see me. I gasped for air in fear looking at the creatures surrounding the man from earlier screaming in the backyard. The creatures were the size of humans. They had a raw flesh complexion, walked like giant dogs, and crawled like lizards. I couldn’t make out the face, only the body and the red eyes. “This shit can’t be real,” I said out loud.

  “Help me……help me,” he screamed again. It was the guy from earlier that night, who had knocked at our door, some of the creatures were chasing him. The man ran straight in to my back yard and right to the creatures that had already surrounded my house. They circled him slowly teasing him and playing with him like helpless prey. 'I know I’m not the only fucking person that can hear this man screaming or see what’s going on. I can’t be the only one who is watching this shit, right now,' I said to myself as I was looking around. I could see the elderly woman's house that sat on the left side of my house with her lights on. And I could see her slim body frame that shadowed in the window as she watched as I did.

  Then, I noticed someone peeking out from a window in the house that was behind me. First, I was unsure of it until there movement more than twice. "Help me! Help me! You will be next all of you! Your whole fucking family! You stupid motherfuckers open your eyes….open your eyes! Their all around us! Not one of you will leave this community alive! HAHAHAHAHA!" the screams turned to laughs as if he lost his mind. He dropped to his knees and continued to laugh hysterically. Then, he looked up at me. My eyes opened up wide because it seemed as if he was staring right at me, but that was impossible. The lights in my house were off and I’m dark skinned complected and black at night. Shit there was no way anyone could see me with the lights off, unless I smiled showing off my white teeth. "Your next,”’ the man mumbled seeming to be staring in my eyes.

  "Grrrrr! Grrrr!" the creature growled. I counted eight creatures that surrounded him and another ten of them that were all over my backyard. I finally could make out the creatures face. Their heads were huge and wide, kind of shaped like a bearded dragon lizard. They had long snarling teeth the size of my fingers. And let me tell you, I’m a big guy with big hands and fingers. Their eyes were the color of dark blood red and shaped like cat eyes.

  I turned my head and could see the elderly women clearly in her window. She looked up at me with a wicked, twisted smile showing off her yellow stained teeth. 'How the fuck are they seeing my black ass in the dark?' I mumbled.

  "AHHHHH!" a blood curling scream that I heard made me turn my attention off the old lady and back on to the guy. I turned my head to see the worse horrors in the world. "AHHHHH!" the guy screamed as one of the creatures sunk its long teeth in to the guy's left arm and ripped it off with ease. The smell of the man’s blood hit the air and all the creatures went in to a frenzy. One of them locked its huge mouth to the right of his ribs. The creature shook his head from side to side and ripped away the guy's whole right side. I stood frozen with my eyes trembling in shock. The bite marks looked as if a great white shark shredded of pieces of him for lunch. "UGGHH!" the man tried to scream, but couldn’t as blood gushed everywhere all on to the grass. Some creatures licked it up as if was warm soup. The creature went insane and ripped off his right arm. The man fell face first. “Help,” he mumbled as blood poured out of his open wounds and his mouth. Then another one of the creatures ripped off his leg
s and fought over it with another creature. The man weakly looked up at me. I felt as if I was frozen. My feet wouldn’t move. Even now, I told them over and over to run down the stairs to the back door, open it up, and shoot as many of those creatures I could before running out of bullets, but the thought stood right there in my mind. I guess my body wasn’t as brave or as stupid as my mind. The man looked up at me pleading for my help.

  "AHHH!" I let out a girlish scream. I covered my mouth as one of the creatures opened its mouth, stretched it wide like a snake, and wrapped it around the man’s head then ripped it clean off. I don’t even think the creature chewed it just swallowed it whole. They continued to rip apart what was left of the man's torso. They must have heard me scream because most of them turned their heads towards me before I could restate what was going on. They ran towards my house and were scaling the walls with ease. I could see two pairs of glowing red eyes staring at me. I jumped back out of fear and landed on my ass, "AHHH!" I pointed my trusted 9mm handgun at the window, ready to put a bullet in their heads and pray Anais will finally hear what’s going on. and wake up and run for her gun. My hand shook nervously. "Grrrrr!" the slowing sound echoed around the house. Footsteps, like a huge rat running really fast, could be heard on the side of the house, front of the house, and also on the roof. I knew it was only a matter of time before they reached me. The growling turned in to a hissing sound.

  A green mist seeped into my house. I coughed a few times, "What the fuck is going on? I can’t breathe,’’ I said out loud and then felt my body weak. I collapsed on the floor coughing. "Why can’t I feel my arms? Why the fuck can’t I move? What’s happening, ahhh!" I said while coughing feeling my body getting weaker and weaker. I could feel hot urine run down my legs from me losing control of my bowels. Six pairs of red eyes were now staring down at me. I tried to scream, but nothing came out. A tear ran down the corner of my eye and down the side of my face as one of those creatures opened their mouth. All I could see were rows after rows of razor sharp teeth coming down on to my face and my world went black.

  Chapter 6

  "AHHHHH!" I popped up screaming and looking around.

  “Fool, why you are screaming like you’re insane?” Anais said. She was in the bathroom fixing her hair and had on a one piece turquoise dress that hugged every curve on her body.

  I looked around the room as if something was going to jump out and attack me at any second. The bright sun started bothering my eyes.

  “Baby, do you hear me? Are you okay?" Anais asked with a concern look on her face. In one hand she held a curling iron she was using to twist her 32 inch Brazilian weave.

  I put my hand under my pillow and felt the handle of my gun. I looked down and realized I was completely naked. Anais seen the panic look on my face. She put down the curling iron and walked towards me. I could smell her Elizabeth Taylor perfume. The smell of her relaxed me. She sat down on the bed next to me and gently touched my face tenderly then kissed me on my lips. “Good morning, baby, are you okay?” she asked once more.

  “I’m not sure yet. How did I get in the bed?" I asked still feeling confused.

  “Oh when I woke up to get Niomi ready for school, I saw you on the floor knocked out. So, I figured you fell a sleep there like you always do when you’re writing at night. I also noticed you were wet, but was not going to go into much detail as to why. I just don’t want to know, but I removed your sweatpants, tank top, and boxers then used a hot soapy wash cloth to clean you off. You slightly woke up and I told you to get on the bed. I know I’m strong, but there was no way I was going to try to lift your big ass up there. I did see your gun on the floor. Now, that was the first time you’ve ever been so careless with your weapons knowing Niomi is a “smart” child. I picked it up, took the bullet out of the chamber and placed it on the safe, and put it under your pillow,” Anais replied.

  “What time is it?" I asked.

  “It’s 11 a.m.,” Anais said.

  I popped up out of the bed and ran to the closet and began packing my clothes in to a suit case. Anais sat up off the bed and walked in to the bathroom then the closet on the left. “What are you doing baby? Why are you packing?” she asked while looking at me weird.

  “Baby, there is something wrong with this place. I knew it was too good to be true. How else we got a big house for barely nothing and it’s just not our home. They‘re selling all these big houses for under ninety thousand, that was the first red flag. Next, was the fact this community has everything in it-- a swimming pool and its own school. For crying out loud, it has its own plaza and supermarket. If all that isn’t enough, I thought the gate card was great security to keep us safe, until last night looking at that guy trying to escape. Now thinking about it, what gated community that you know of that enforces you not only to have to use your gate card to get in, but also to get out of the subdivision? Let me answer that question--none. We’re trapped in here like a rat in a maze for those things to get us.

  “HAHAHA! What thing is going to get us baby? You’re not making sense. You pop out of bed naked with your black ass running to the closet, packing your things talking nonsense. What things are going to get us?” Anais responded.

  “Those….Those…..creatures!” I said.

  “What creatures? Andrew, if you don’t start explaining yourself, I’m going to hit you on your head. Sounds like you have been living in one of your dream books,” Anais said.

  I looked at her and knew she wasn’t kidding about hitting me on my head. She has done it before when I have frustrated her. She's kind of strong for a woman, tall and thick. I seriously doubt the average woman could beat her in a fair fight. Shit, the only reason I may win is because of my strength. I took a deep breath, and then exhale it slowly, “Okay, last night while you were sleeping, I heard growling noises echoing through and in the house. I grabbed my gun and looked out of the window and could see the guy from last night. He was in our backyard running, running from these things these creatures,"

  "Wait! What you mean creatures?” Anais asked looking at me as if I was smoking crack.

  "I don’t know how to describe them. Their skin color was the color of raw flesh and their the size of me some even bigger. They walk on all fours like an animal and their heads are humongous shaped like a pointy triangle like one of those six foot monitor lizards we've seen at the zoo last year, that ate rats, rabbits, and snakes. The only thing different was that they had giant red eyes and teeth were as long as my finger."

  “Andrew, you sure it wasn’t a dog that you’ve seen?” Anais asked with a puzzled look on her face.

  “No baby, these things wasn’t dogs and wasn’t lizards, they ripped that man apart. I was scared the creatures saw me. They scaled the walls and roof. The next thing I knew there was green mist coming into the house and I was unconscious."

  “Andrew stop packing. You’re not making any sense. We moved her because this community has everything in it. We’re safe here and I told you I’m tired of us always moving place to place. I told you that scares me. It means no stability. I want us to stay in one town, one state, one subdivision, the amenities is what make this place great. Your story and theory is all wrong and watch me prove it to you, follow me,” Anais stated.

  'Why wouldn’t she believe me? Would I believe me? Hell no, what rational adult would. It’s like believing in the boogie man. My woman might take me to the hospital for the things I just told her, but I know it’s true. I see it with my own eyes,” I said to myself. I quickly got dressed in a cranberry button up shirt and black jeans then put my sneakers on. Anais was already waiting for me down stairs by the kitchen.

  She walked to the back door and opened it, “Come on,” Anais said as we walked outside and walked on to the soft grass.

  “Now if anything happen like you said, there will be a trace of blood on the grass, evidence, or something. Look there’s nothing,” Anais said pointing to the area I showered her from the window upstairs.

  "This can’t
be. I seen him get ripped to shreds with my own eyes,” I said out loud to myself. I walked around the whole backyard and couldn’t find anything out of the ordinary. “This can’t be,” Andrew said out loud.

  “If something the size of you and I was to scale the house as you said, there would be footprints all on the house, Andrew,” Anais said while pointing at the house.

  I looked up and knew she was right but, “I had seen the creatures, didn’t I?” I mumbled to myself.

  "Now, let me show you what else about your theory, follow me,” Anais said.

  I entered the house locking the door behind me following Anais through the laundry room and into the garage. We leaped into Anais's blue Mercedes Benz truck. She opened the garage door with the remote and pulled out of the driveway. I turned my head and could see the elderly Caucasian women in a yellow dress with her dark gray hair that had a shine to it. She was out on the porch sitting on a rocking chair made for two people. She stared right at me and smiled showing off her yellow teeth. “Bitch,” I mumbled.

  “What did you just say?” Anais asked knowing she heard me.

  “Nothing baby,” I replied.

  We reached the front gate in seconds. It was only a few feet away from my house. I stared at the seven foot tall gate that had spikes at the very top. And then I stared at the white and red warning sign that read, 'Dangerous don’t touch or you will be electrocuted.' Anais waved the gate card at the black electronic reader. The gate swung open slowly and we drove through it. “See if we won't get trapped in our community. How are we able to leave? Why would they even let you leave after what you saw? Does that make any sense, baby?” Anais asked.

  I felt ashamed and stupid. She was right. I held my head down and could feel Anais looking at me from the corner of her eyes. “What I think what really happened baby is your writing got to your genius mind run wild as always and you fell asleep. And you had a nightmare that felt so real that you actually thought it was,” Anais said.
