WOTD 05/13 A Leviathan rose from the waves, the water sluicing off it in a cascade. People began screaming and running, never having seen anything like that before. The beast moved fast for its size and made its way to the shore within seconds.
His green, algae-covered skin shimmered in the sunlight as he beat his hands against his chest and roared loudly. The sound of his voice echoed across the small town, shaking the ground and breaking storefront windows. He stepped forward, crushing the little boy’s sandcastle. The Leviathan raged as he descended upon the small beach town with all the anger of hell in his eyes.
He grabbed a small surfing shanty and picked it up high in the air, a surfer still inside. The twenty-something blond guy stared fearfully out the window as the beast raised the shanty high above his head. With a quick movement, the Leviathan threw it hard at the ground, smashing it and everything inside it. The blond surfer, bruised and bloody, tried to crawl from the wreckage, and the Leviathan stepped on him.
The beast grabbed a woman standing frozen in fear and ripped her head off with his jagged teeth. He tossed the woman’s lifeless body to the ground, crunching on her skull like it was a kernel of popcorn. The Leviathan continued moving, crushing buildings and people everywhere he looked. He moved fast and with a purpose, and that purpose was destruction. He flattened anything and anyone in his path.
"He looks like Godzilla! What could we do against Godzilla?"
The beast smashed across the beach, waving his deadly green claws around, and crashed through several of the resorts that sat on the shore. The tourists didn’t even have a chance to evacuate. All were crushed either by his uncaring footfalls or the buildings he toppled onto them. On the streets of the small Mediterranean beach town, debris and bodies were strewn. Just moments before the place had been peaceful and beautiful, with fountains and merchants in the streets. Now it was a wasteland of screaming injured and wrecked lives.
The tactic had been hit-and-run, causing as much damage as possible in the shortest amount of time, and then retreating. Those who were left standing in the rubble watched as the large beast turned back toward the shore and stomped through the sand. He quickly submerged himself, disappearing back into the ocean. He roared wildly as his head sank beneath the sea’s surface, and the waves quieted.
Staring at the calm sea, it was almost as if it had never happened. However, when you turned back around to look at the town, it looked as if a hurricane and a tornado had hit the town all at once. But the skies were blue, and the gentle breeze continued to flow, carrying the sounds of screaming humans out over the Mediterranean Sea. “What was the point of that? He came, destroyed, and was gone within fifteen minutes… So many people are dead!”
It had been twenty minutes only since the military had gotten the first call.
