Day at the Fair

It was Nichole’s 24^th Birthday, although she did not care for the day , Thomas loved to celebrate the occasion . She awoke to toast, bacon and golden hash browns on a sliver plate brough to her by her beloved husband and beautiful daughter . “Happy Birthday Mama ! “Cecelia chuckled , Nichole loved this moment more than anything the world could offer .  Thomas had planned to take her out to the grand opening of the World Fair, A moving event thrown by the Sea Government , They toured to every sector of the sea annually .  Upon arriving she noticed all the rides as Cecelia eyes lit up and her smiled widened “Thom – Take Cecelia on the rides I’m going to get us some food “ She said “ Babe are you sure – “ before Thomas could finish , Nichole was off to get some food . Although the hearty breakfast had filled her up, The selection of snacks was to die for , A mix of Crawfish pretzels , Salmon bites and Octifry Wings.  Nichole had set her sights on Crawfish Pretzels her and Thomas’s favorite snack, As she approached the booth a blue moth landed on her arm, she giggled and continued forward . “Excuse me sir May I get 2 Crawfish pretzels and a small order of kelp fries “The employee stayed silent , back faced towards her . “Um- Hello “The employee remained still “ Um okay I’ll try and come back later “ as she turned a hand gripped her tightly “ Ow ! HEY LET GO OF ME “She swiped the attacker away only to see the arm was  nothing but bones and melting flesh . She looked up to see the pale, Corpse grabbing her, teeth falling out , Eyes popping and flesh dripping . Nichole screamed and kicked  the corpse away from  her. She felt the earth quake, Cracks opening in th ground  going further and multiplying . She had heard Thomas scream for her then Cecelia, Nichole ran through the cracking ground, hearing only screams . A roar was heard, more loud than a thunder crack and more earsplitting than a church bell ringing. Up above she saw it, A  large creature resembling a whale with a  glowing crimson horn .  She continued forward only to see her beloved Thomas on his knees, his face , a feeling she would soon understand , standing near a large crater she knew her daughter was dead .
