[Female panting]

A woman is running fast, gliding across the pavement swiftly with each step.

[Cars crashing]

[Panting continues]

Faint sirens can be heard in the distance but slowly grow louder. She carries with her a child. A baby cries in her arms. A loud crash followed by an unusual scream arises. People are screaming, guns shooting, and the city is in fire. The woman sobs and clinches her teeth tightly as she runs even harder. A deep snarl follows behind her. An old man, shelters his wife, while waving his cane at an ugly beast. A dog yanks on a dead monster eye. The lady stops running. She quiets her child and runs under a bridge. Glitched voices are sound next to her.

"N.... Now R.. R....Remember to always b.....b......be saf....." says a video displaying an 'Ad'.

A deep snarl followed by a get louder by the second. The woman pulls the child closer to her chest. To her right, a large hand of flesh grabs grabs the corner of the wall.

"HEY UGLY!!" shouts a young male voice.

It stops and the sound of glass shatters, leaving a trail of scattered fire. The monster rushes to its prey, roaring deeply. She uses this opportunity to bolt to a nearby vehicle left abandoned. Her baby reaches for her cheeks. She looks into the vehicle; luckily the door was already unlocked. She slowly opens the door and places the baby in the passenger seat. She rushes looking for the keys. Her frustration grows quickly, preventing her from searching further. She slams her hands on the steering wheel and breathes heavily. She looks over to the child and whispers,

"its okay my son, we are almost there."

A horrifying scream echoes in the distance. She shuts the door quickly and looks through the driver door window. A man is trying to save a mother and her teenage children. He kills a man with grey skin and no jaw, with a crowbar. The female screams, from the driver side window, for him.

"Get back in the car...."

A monster jumps from the large bridge, crushing the driver side. The children inside scream even more. The man tries to intimidate the ugly fleshy beast with his weapon. It whips the weapon from his hands, with it's long rigid tail. The children escape from the right side passenger doors. The beast instantly grabs the boy, wrapping its tail around his throat. The sister screams in horror as she sees the monster bite off his lower half; blood pouring all over the vehicle. The man runs towards the lady and her baby. He screams as the beast jumps on top of him biting between his head and shoulder. The sister notices the woman in the car. She screams for her help while running towards her. She lies her seat back, sheltering her child. The girl trips and falls, she looks up to the window and is snatched across the concrete. She screams and fights for her life, kicking her feet and throwing her hands. The woman clinches her baby tighter as the sounds of flesh being pierced and bones crushing under its jaws. The baby cries. It pauses and looks towards the ladies direction dropping its unlucky victim. Unsure as to what to do next, she reaches for the glove compartment and out falls a gun. The creeping beast smells the air and its nose peals into fish gills; along the length of its nose. The woman and her baby, still silent, holds her child tighter. She slowly raises a gun to her head. Her hands are trembling, she is sweating ferociously. She looks into her sons blue eyes, then slowly lowers the gun. Her son reaches for her caramel skin cheeks and long curly black hair. Her brown eyes surge into a gold color as she smiles. She closes her eyes shedding tears. She takes in a deep breath, then slowly exhales from the mouth. The beast trails off into the distance hearing more people run. She opens her eyes, refocusing on her son and whispers to him,

"We are going to be okay, and thank you mein schats, I will get us on that plane, no matter what it takes to get there."

She grabs the gun. A massive lumpy hand, slaps the side of a nearby car about two cars away. The disfigured creature with half its head being a human skull and the lower half being a large mouth, raises its head and also sniffs the air. The woman looks over noticing the creature getting incredibly close. Quickly and carefully she moves to the passenger seat and slowly opens the door. The creature takes in a final deep breath. It leans on the roof of her car. Quietly hiding on the opposite side of the beast, she analyzes her surroundings. She notices the airport entrance straight through a parking garage. Right as the monster glances the opposite direction, she runs for it. Her eyes are focused, her left foot stomps on a piece of glass, the monster immediately tracks them. Smashing the hood of the car, it flips it towards them. She dodges to the right rolling on her back, then to her feet. She continues running, the monster roars, gaining on their tail. Approaching the doors, she shoots the glass on the side of the metal door twice. Thank goodness the passage way was big enough for her to jump through. She lands on her back, breaking the fall for her child. The creature slams into the small gap and groans deeply, retreating back. She is looking at the dented door, her baby cries and she rocks him gently to quiet him. She gets up carefully and does not hesitate to keep running. Voices of men and woman and children can be heard in the distance. She is running through a long path of small shops. She takes a quick turn into a shop.
