Bring Home the Hay
Scott L Vannatter- 100 Words
Carolyn burst through the door of the elementary, killing night crawlers in the process. She continued fighting. Her thoughts kept drifting to how much the girls were hoping for some sweets this time in her search through the town. Jenny kept saying, “Bring home the hay!” Carolyn had not been certain where the saying had come from, but she got the idea. Now, there were night crawlers in the building going for the girls and Carolyn was not certain they would get through this one without injury or worse.
She snapped back. A crawler had Jenny pushed to the wall.

I always associate night crawlers with fishing worms, but I’ve yet to see one attack. Your’s sound much more ferocious.

I think that’s very likely. However, if you have never seen one of yours attack, you are not watching the right movies!!!

Dear Scott,
Night crawlers as in giant bugs? Not enough ‘e’s in creepy to describe that. At some point I’ll have to go back and read all the Carolyn entries to tie it all together in my head. Good one.
shalom,
Rochelle

Nope, not bugs – diseased humans, almost zombies, but not so.
Still bad.
