Chapter 8

What was coming for her?

Adara frowned as the whole house shook as if in the grips of an earthquake.

Titus stared at the floor as if he could glare it into submission.

Logan began to strip.

"What is going on?" She'd really like to know.

Her doctor, who wasn't a doctor, pursed her lips. "They're becoming more brazen."

"W-w-what is it?" Adara asked, her words stuttering as she shook.

"Death worm."

"A what?"

It was Logan who hollered, "A giant fucking worm that's going to eat your ass. Haven't you seen Tremors? We need to get to high ground."

While she hadn't seen Tremors, she understood his advice.

Something appeared to be tunneling at them from below the house itself. Probably not a good idea to stick around and greet it. She ran for the staircase, only barely noticing her doctor keeping pace by her side.
