Midnight Crystal (Part 41)

"Well, well, of all the people I've met in Dead Lands before, you're the ultimate freak."

Adam stared at the monster whose face looked like a creepy mask with a perpetually frozen grin. The eyes on the mask were part of the monster's face, they were completely black with slow-flowing dark tears as if the eyes consisted of thick ink. 

The monster's body was elongated and very long, covered only by gray skin stretched over the torso by nails that held all the parts together.

And... it might have looked like a creepy worm or maybe a snake, but that was not the correct definition, for this monster looked more like a centipede than anything else.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
