The Beast Within
#WritcoStoryChallenge
The car swerved around the sharp mend giving a narrow miss to the on-coming bus.

With the children screaming, Pauly, the 19 year old boy driving the bus. Panics and over corrects plowing into a parked truck. Pauly quickly attemps to catch a look at the licence plate of the red BMW, but it was to far away for his squinting eyes to read. He rushes to the rear of the bus and finds that all the children are unharmed, with a sigh of releaf, he grabs his cell phone from his back pocket and dials 911.

The BMW swerves past another car as horns arupt from both directions. Trent throws up his middle finger and forces the throttle to the floor. He cant stop repeating the horrible instance that went down only minutes ago. "How did this happen"? With his eyes filled with tears he spun the car sideways, just barely making the freeway entrance heading out of town.

Bill, the local sherif in the little town of Harper Ohio, asked Pauly again about what happpened. Bill had already called in the red bmw to dispatch. Pauly finished his story and was thanking Bill for not writing him any tickets when a call came in over Bills radio. A red BMW was just found wrecked 19 miles out of town. The car had been totaled and looked to have rolled several times. Bill asked if the driver was desest or in custody. Ron, from the highway potrol car on sceane, explained that there has not been a body found in or around the vehicle yet. Bill called in a search party.

Trents mind was racing so intensly he didnt notice the other vehicle in tell it was right next to him, Trent jumped as fear filled his already panicked mind. He glanced down to realize he was driving 130 mph and instintly new that it had to be them in the black suv with blacked out tented windows.
Trent floored the pedal swiftly gaining speed but could not shake the suv what so ever. Crying Trent yelled at the blacked out windows "just leave me the hell alone". The only response was the sudden swerve as the vehicles smashed together. The bmw swerved out of control and then sideways. Trent closed his eyes and begged for help as the beamer began to flip.
The black suv screeched to a holt next to the smashed up car. A man jumped out, forced open the crinkled door and pulled out Trents limp unconscious body.

Traffic was now detoured and the area where the accident was, had been blocked off with cones and police tap. Investagators where on sence, A search party was still taking place covering a quarter mile in every direction from where the car was found. Bill and Ron was starring at the skid marks on the pavement directly across from where the BMW was mangled and upside down. "First the red car runs a bus full of kids off the road in town, then 20 miles away it looks that another vehicle may have run the red car off the road".
The story ran on the six o'clock local news station and the little ole town of harper exploded with gossip of what had happened.  After hours of questioning folks from the school bus accident there had been nobody that seen another vehicle following the speeding BMW. The search was finally called off and paper work filled. "The meeting with the investagators was just going to have to wait tell morning" Bill said to his wife. Then he headed for home.

Trent awoke and was met with agonising pain. He was tied up and blind folded. He could tell that his arm was definitly broken and a good chance a few of his ribs had been broken as well. Trents body shook with terrifing fear as he heard a voice yell "he has woke". Suddenly Trent started remembering what had happened. Foot steps entered the room. Two men where arguing back and forth about questioning the kid first or just killing him. Trents mind flashing the memories of these men killing his girlfriend and her family. Trent had only barley escaped because he had gone out back to pick a rose for his girlfriend to make up for the stupid arguement they had that morning. Tears fell down his face as he pictured her beautiful face. He whispered her name "Sarah" and rage started to fill his body. Trents mind kept racing with those memories. All the time he and Sarah had spent together in the past 4 years. How scared they where when they asked her parents if he could move in just a year before. Sarahs parents, John and Clair had accepted trent not only into there home but also in to their family and buisness. Then Trents blood boiled with the haunting screams and gun fire that violently ript thru his thoughts and the fear that sent him running for his life. Trents head started to ache, the tears stopped suddenly as horror erupted from the sounds forcing thru Trents bleeding lips. His muscles ripped violently thru his skin, Bones snapped as his body transformed rappidly. No more thoughts, no more conscience remained. Only a demanding hunger and rage for the two guys in the room with him. The men scamble for the door screaming for help and pleading to God.
Trent along with any part that made Trent human, is gone.
The creature that is in his place just sits there. Slow long deep breaths exhaust with a dark thundering sound.
The door slams shut and. locked. The beast opens its pitch black eyes, as it rises up off the table. Unable to fully stand the beast lunges forward, its head dragging along the concret cieling. Above, debris crashing to the ground. The sent of the fear forces the beast to venture on at any cost. The thick concret walls fall with ease to the monsters power, flowing from his huge deformed body
The two men franticly watching the numbers counting down as the elevator moves past each floor. Unable to hardly believe or even speak one word of the evilist most grotesque monster that was 10 floors underground right now, they visiously shake with fear. The elevator door opens and they run as fast as thier weak stumbling legs will take them towards the blacked out suv. That suv has always been a safe place for them with its upgraded mobster like affects, from the 3 inch bolt lock system on all doors, its bulletproof glass to the outragious supply of weaponry. Shocked to have made it, the two men dive inside the suv, immediatly start it and take off. The first words to be spoken since watching that kid transform into the devil itself was the driver yelling at the passenger to get out the weapons.
The beast stops to trace the sent, as he regains the path it lets out a howl that shook the concret walls and crashed thru three more rooms before reaching the elevator door which exploded into pieces as the blood thirsty beast climbed the elevator shaft walls and was top side in seconds.

Bill wakes to his phone ringing non stop. Irritated he reaches for the phone and answers with a stern voice, anouncing himself as sheriff and demanding for an explaination for such ergancy.
Tammy, the secretary at the sheriffs department, apoligized the continued with the bodies which was found at a house just outside of town. Bill was dressed and out the door in minutes, heading straight for the address Tammy had given him. All he could think about was the fight he had with his son a year ago, after kicking him out there was talk about Trent moving in with that girlfriend of his out at her parents place. Bill had drove by once on Trents birthday but didnt see him, although Bill still left his present in the mail box. It was a white gold rope necklace with a locket which held photos of his parents, Trent had been wanting for a few years. Thats the only reason he recognized the address. Bill kept apologizing to Trent in his head over and over.
Arriving to the scene Bill vomited then rushed inside, hesitating at the door for just a second then pushed his way in to find his son.

The two men franticly craving a way to vanish out of reach of what was hunting them down, the terrifying fear pooring from thier bodies only left a stronger sent. Death whispered into those two mens ears in that moment as windows shattered from a roaring howl. Then as if hell opened up right next to them, the beast was there. Fangs so big sheered thru the side of the truck with no effort, hair covered muscles pounded with every step. They knew there was no escape, and the beast ramed the truck with all its strength, biting the head off the drivers body as they flew off the road and over the cliff. Falling ment nothing to the beast as his distroyed what was left of the truck then gratifing its hunger, the beast thrashed the other man tell the only thing left was the blood dripping from its mouth and claws. The Beast along with the many pieces of the blak truck crashed into the ground like a bolt of lighting.
