“Gabi, I need help,” she shouted at the top of her lungs to the disconnected communication device.

The cargo door groaned under the pressure that the creature was exerting on it. Nikki looked back in horror. “What do you want from me?” she shouted toward the cargo door in frustration.

“Food,” the answer came immediately.

She froze. “Food? “Do you want something to eat?” she asked, confused.

“Yes.”

“No problem, I have enough cartridges here to print a meal for a thousand people, tell me what you like and I will send it outside right away,” Nikki said quickly.

The voices flooded her head and her stomach, rhythmic and thick, echoing inside her bones, like the huge drums she had once experienced in a dream. It took her a second to understand what was happening - the creature was laughing.

“What’s so funny?” she shouted angrily.

“My food is offering me food,” the creature answered as he renewed his efforts to dismantle the door.

“What?” she asked, astonished.

His reply remained calm and cultured. “I didn’t come to this world to eat printouts; I came here for the dome-dwellers. Soon the tunnels that reach the domes will be ready. But until then you will be great as an appetizer.”

Her breathing stopped for a moment. “What?” she muttered in confusion.

“Oh, the scent of terror, my favorite spice,” the creature exclaimed.

Nikki was overwhelmed by a dizzy spell. “Gabi,” she sobbed quietly as she held herself and crumpled onto the floor of the hovercraft.

The creature’s laughter echoed through the hovercraft again. Nikki’s fear was soon replaced by fury. Really? The creature wanted to kill her? He would have to catch her first.

She stood firmly, “Activate engines, full power ahead,” she ordered. The hovercraft leapt forward and came to a stop immediately, slamming Nicki onto the floor. The sound of the creature’s laughter grew louder.

She stood back up. “Shitty, stupid world,” she shouted angrily and sat in the chair. “Dive downward,” she ordered. The hovercraft descended quickly without resistance. Nikki counted to ten, “full power ahead,” she ordered. The hovercraft leapt and was stopped immediately once more.

The terrible laughter reverberated again, “food coming to us, how nice of the food.”

“Us?” There was more than one. Her heart was racing with fear, they were on the ledge, she was heading straight toward them.

“Damn you, Gabi,” she cursed again, “Let’s build a dome on a rocky ledge under the sea, that will be the most economical, there are no pests under the sea, sure.”
