The Creature

Kiera's POV(Continued)

“Mww,” it growled, its form unfolding, and unfolding until he was as tall as, well the space was empty and had no roof or any shape whatsoever, so I couldn’t begin to guess at its height but it was definitely over seven feet.

“Food.” It muttered again, it’s words clear this time. Now that it stood at full height, I was able to view it in all it’s hideousness. It’s body was remarkably like a human’s, if you happened to be viewing the human’s body in biology class after it had been dissected, that is.

Instead of a skin, it had skeletons -and not the healthy kind. It’s bones looked shriveled up. It’s intestines were small and his stomach looked half eaten.

I threw up a little in my mouth when I saw that. Either something had taken a bite out of all it’s kidneys, lungs and all vital intestines, or the creature had gnawed on it’s own body. How was it still alive?
