Blot

Being cruel to animals had always come quite naturally to the boy.

Today he found great sport on this open patch among the trees. He had been chasing the creature for several minutes. He had no idea what it was. At first he thought it was some kind of rat, but it had no tail and its head was too round. It was definitely ugly. The pointy stick he held would certainly finish it off if he managed to catch it. But, of course, that was the sport in it.

Something huge crouched in the thicket at the edge of the clearing. It looked on with pride as its son scampered straight up the trunk of one of the tallest trees.

It too could move very fast.

The nature of its discrete existence meant that it rarely had the opportunity to dine on man. No physical trace of the boy would ever be found. No DNA test would ever be applied to any droppings in the forest. It was a clean erasure. A blot removed. One less genetic aberration allowed to pollute their pool. It had a surprisingly thorough understanding of the evolutionary trajectory of genetic pollution.

After a belch that no one would ever hear, it smiled at the irony of doing the human race a favour.

  5. My husband and i have been so relieved when Chris managed to finish up his preliminary research while using the ideas he received out of your blog. It’s not at all simplistic to simply always be handing out things that many people today might have been trying to sell. We really fully grasp we now have you to thank because of that. The type of explanations you’ve made, the straightforward website navigation, the friendships you will make it possible to promote – it’s mostly impressive, and it is leading our son and the family reason why the matter is pleasurable, which is rather fundamental. Many thanks for everything!

  10. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was curious what all is required to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very internet smart so I’m not 100 positive. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
