Earth the beginning of the fall

Prologue

The crisp, evening air burned her throat has she sprints through the park, it had gotten dark pretty quickly, looking up wards she could see the sky had darkened to the point it looked like a storm was coming, she could feel the hair standing on her skin has she run faster than she ever did before.

   That thing, is still chasing her, glancing over her shoulder she saw nothing but the rising fog coming from between the trees, running faster she felt her lungs burning for air. almost there she chanted the mantra in her head. She could see the entire way to the park now, just a little more she thought, and that's when she heard it, like metal tearing and scraping against concrete, a sound so loud pain like needles shot through her skull.

   One moment she was running till her lungs burned, and the next huddled into a ball on the park ground. Just as suddenly as the noise started it abruptly stopped, now there was nothing but absolute silence except for the frantic beating of her heart.
                         
                            Rob

  Four blocks away Rob just left his girlfriends house he had brought her home from their date, earlier than expected but he wanted to make a good impression with her parents, especially her dad who had took him aside earlier to have a talk, man that was scary, he could still hear the older mans words of warning "listen if you so much has hurt her I'll burn your body and sprinkle the ashes down by the beach." Yeah there's nothing like the promised threat of cremation to put your love life into perspective, he didn't really need it though cause he had no intention to do so, he loved Tessa with all his heart and could only hope she loved him has much.

   Boom! something slammed into his car flipping it over, the car rolled three times before coming to a stop with its wheels in the air. Rob was barely conscious blood dripping from a open wound on his forehead. Willing himself to stay conscious his vision slowly began to clear, he could barely make out something laying on the ground by his broken window, he tried to move but that made him dizzy, closing his eyes and taking several slow deep breaths, he open them again and this time he could see more clearly.

hanging upside down, his seatbelt holding him in place no doubt it saved him from going out the windshield, which was now filled with so much cracks he couldn't see through it. Turning his head back to his broken door window, he now saw clearly for the first time what had hit his car, except his brain was having a hard time accepting what he was seeing, laying next to his car was something that looked like a body, but it was all wrong it's like the skin had been torn off, leaving behind nothing but muscle tissue that looked almost mummified, if not for the wet substance dripping from it to the ground, that his addled mind now register to be blood.

   It had only gaping holes where it's eyes should be, and the bottom half of its jaw were missing, allowing him to see all the way to the bone that barely kept the skull attached to its neck. He stared in horror, has a strange sound made it to his ears, just what was that sound he thought. It took him several seconds to realize that it was the sound of screams, and several more to realize they were coming from him.

   Something slammed into the tail of his car on the passenger side making it spin around on it's roof in circles, panicking Rob tried to free himself from the seatbelt, when suddenly his driver's door got torn off and sent flying, claws that tore steel were now sinking into the frame that once held is car door, the thing those claws belong to was something out of a nightmare, with massive muscular arms and a head adorned in tentacles like hairs.

It's bulbous sized eyes focused on Rob, with its jaws open and filled with jagged sharp teethes it stretched its mouth to almost touching the door's frame, extending its tongue has thick has a forearm, with blurred speed it lashed out roping around his upper body.

Pulling with such force it rips through the seatbelt holding him. Kicking and screaming he struggled to get free from the creature, has teethes sink into his flesh, bringing his screams to choking whimpers of pain, that were soon silenced once the creature swallowed him hole.
