《Apocalyptic Invasion》Chapter 8: Creature?

He was jolted awake by the sudden noise. He looked around to see Lisa waking up. She stared at him and stammered, "What was that?"."
"I have no idea, but I'll see" He replied to her, and got up.
Holding the gun in one hand, he slowly opened the door.
"Be careful," Lisa said. He glanced at her and nodded.
When he went outside, he heard some voices, just like he had heard from the undead. As he peered down, he was shocked at what he saw on the ground floor.
The door was broken, and something massive was rampaging downstairs. A monster that stood almost 8 feet tall, had blisters covering its rotting skin and had sharp claws.
From how it was acting, it seems that it was searching for something. It didn't seem like one of those brainless undead.
"What the fuck is that?" he muttered while contemplating how to handle it. Another creature entered the house and looked directly at him.
As he hid, his heartbeat increased as he heard the approaching footsteps.
The sound of the footsteps ceased, and he heard a voice.
It's OK to come down now; I know you're up there"
Alex scrambled, what is happening, how can people control these creatures? After inhaling deeply, he tightened his grip on his gun and peeked once more.
In front of him was a middle-aged man, dressed like an office worker wearing plain trousers and a shirt. His pale face was complemented by extremely reddened eyes as if he was struggling with something.
When that creature saw Alex, it started struggling, causing a change in the man's face, who kept grunting while trying to look at Alex.
Then Alex realized the man was under too much pressure to control these creatures. However, there is a good chance for him to kill at least one of them.

As he stood on the stairs, he shot the creature multiple times without saying a word.
The creature was stronger than any undead he'd seen so far, and single shots couldn't harm it greatly, but multiple shots at the same spot shattered the creature's head and caused its body to fall down the stairs.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Don't you dare do that?" He screamed, and blood started to pour out of his nose. He slumped on the ground with a lost look on his face.
The other creature started thrashing everything on the spot as it became increasingly agitated, then suddenly it turned to run towards Alex.
As soon as Alex changed the magazine in the gun, he fired many times on the head, and the result was the same.
Its body fell to the ground after its head was smashed.
Alex ran quickly to the man who was sitting on the ground and staring listlessly at him.
After grabbing hold of the collar, he gave him a hard punch to the face.
His punches continued as he yelled, "How the fuck were you controlling them?".
Suddenly the man regained his senses as he stared at Alex and cried, "Why did you do this? I lost my babies."
"You, you devil, you know how many undead, I've fed them. An... And you killed them," he said.
As the man uttered nonsense, blood began flowing from his mouth and his eyes as he grabbed Alex by the hands, and struggled to get up.
While this man continued struggling, Alex kicked him on his chest. The man started crying, blood smeared across his face.
"I came here to make you me, to form a relationship, but you killed my family! How am I going to rule the world now?," Yo...You destroyed my dream!"
The man began screaming as he cried.
Frustrated, Alex looked at the man, confused as to what to do.
Eventually, he shot the man dead. When he turned around, he saw Lisa staring at the dead body of the creature.
Lisa, who was still staring at the body, heard Alex shout, "Grab the bag quickly, we have to get moving."

Queen of the Hill
Howdy there, partner. I'm so glad you've stumbled upon this story of mine. It's a bit of an experiment I've always wanted to try: writing a female protagonist people would enjoy reading. Of course, my amazing writing skills and epic prose won't be enough to convince you, so I've composed a list that'll prove just how much you'll love Daphne: 1. She has that good ol' Southern hospitality 2. She knows a lot of Southern Slang 3. SHE'S A MOTHER TRUCKIN' DRAGON I dunno about you, but I'd like to read a story where a young, Southern woman gets reincarnated as a hill dragon and has to fight vicious fairies, handsome dwarves, and plants that make you sneeze assisted by only her wits and a very passive-aggressive system that sends her weird emoticons. But hey. That's just me. Give it a chance! Tarnation Station is coming and there's absolutely nothing you can do to stop it! So why don't you hop on and enjoy the ride?

WISH MOUNTAIN
I could give you a typical synopsis that you'll gloss over...or I could tell you the essence of what the story will be. Still with me? Great! Let's get to it... WISH MOUNTAIN is inspired by fairy tales and, in a way, animated Disney movies. The biggest inspiration of them all is Beauty and the Beast. Why? Because I love it and hate it at the same time. The thing I hate about the movie is how the villain, Gaston, never got a chance for redemption. The movie was all about what is on the inside that counts, right? Beast went from bad-to-good because Belle learned to love and care about him. Was Gaston not worth that same chance for redemption? Sure he was a bad person, but so bad that he couldn't also undergo the same kind of change for the better? It was this question that got me thinking... what would Gaston's redemption look like? What kind of story would that be? From this nugget an entire epic story unfolded that has both outgrown, but has never forgotten, that original inspiration. So what can you expect? In essence: something like an epic, adult-orientated Disney story, which is gloves-off when it comes to violence and character trauma. I'll be doing my best to write a story that is as close to a classic adventure fairy tale with real stakes and meaningful characters as I can. The story begins with two orphans; Amaryllis and Chicory, who are whisked away to the magical WISH MOUNTAIN, and are faced with fending for themselves all alone. This is a HUGE story that will take YEARS for me to finish. If you're ready for a journey to Wish Mountain, then Once Upon a Time begins with Chapter 1...
