The Butterfly Of Death - Flash FictionsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #story7 years ago

So I saw this pic and had to write a story on it. Look at it. It has WTF written all over it. How do you not stop and think, what is going on there?  


                                                                                                   -

No one knew where it came from. A lab? Another planet? They were calling it the butterfly of death. It looked like a woman. For some reason she was barely clothed. Maybe this was to distract those who tried to capture her. There were flowers in its' hair. And one pissed off look in its eyes.

At first they took a causal approach. It was short. Humanoid. Half-undressed. How much of a threat could it be. But then its hand started to glow. With a tossing movement a fireball was launched from its hand. It didn't look big. But when it contacted a surface it exploded. A giant cloud of smoke rose in the air. A small building was in pieces.

The military was called in. Drones, helicopters and soldiers surrounded the area. The bufferfly of death flapped its wings and headed to the sky. It flew over a small building, dropping a bomb on it as it went. Another cloud of smoke filled the air. Then the butterfly of death stuck to a building. She climbed to the top. The poeple inside watched through the glass in panic.

The butterfly of death reached the top. She looked over the edge. With rage she started to tossfireballs. They exploded on contact, causing chaos through the streets. A helicopter floated near by. The butterfly turned around when she heard the noise. She tossed a fireball at the helicopter. The pilot weaved to the left. Then it got close enough to the building so that three soldiers could jump off. They approached the creature with their guns raised. It did not know what the weapons were. It ran towards the soldiers with its sharp nails ready. A shot was fired. Then a second.

The butterfly of death went down. Yellow blood oozed from its body. It twitched before it stopped moving. The helicopter landed. A man and woman with a body bag ran out and collected the body. Then they flew off like nothing happened.

"How do we explain this?" asked the general.

The lead scientist looked at his experiment. He didn't think it would be able to escape the lab. "I'm not going to lie, this is going to be hard to cover up."

There was already youtube videos uploaded. It was on every news channel.

"I guess it is time we tell the public about our company..."

A week later the company Genetic Hybridia was announced to the people. 

It's had an IPO... 

The stock didn't do so well.
