Snap

Science Fiction horror short story. Twenty-two pages of action. Reviwers say: Snap. From the very first paragraph of this bone-chilling short story I was drawn into the nameless heroine's dire situation and rode the edge of my seat throughout the entirety of this well-paced and intriguing ride. It feels familiar in the most relatable of ways, and that makes the unearthly aspects of this horror story all the more terrifying.
-Kurt S. The pilot. The model. The child. The mother. And her. And them. They came and humanity fought and lost; quickly. Swatted like a pesky insect. Her fight for survival was a habit, long ingrained, even as she knew it was a losing battle. Her only recourse was choice. Her choice. Her way. Not theirs.
