New Kid on the Block

As I got up from the side of the train tracks I looked around quickly to see where Sam had gone to. I looked behind me and there he was sitting curled in a ball. I hear him mutter “You should have left me…” over and over again. “Whats wrong?” I ask frantically. “They changed me.” he said. “Changed what?” I ask him. Sam tries to stagger to his feet as he does he starts to grab his forehead. “AHHHHH The pain!” He screams. Suddenly eight spiked tentacles emerge from his back, horns start to pertrude from his forehead, his skins turns to a color of bluish-grey, and his eyes dissapear replaced with fire. Fire burning with discontent for all humanity. “My vessel is now complete!” He says with a kind of doubled over voice. “Earth will be mine but, first I must feed.” He looks over to me and says “Little brother, will you join me for dinner?” He then chops my head off then drains me of every bit of my life essence.
