The night was dark and so still nothing seemed real.

“The night was dark and so still, nothing seemed real.”

“Already bored.”

“No, shut up and listen, dinkus.  I swear, there was something following me in the trees.  I don’t know how to describe it.  It was almost like a person-sized cat.”

“Sounds like a good description to me.  What’s your point?”

“Take the dicks out of your ears and I’ll tell you!  God!  Look, I had the feeling that I was being watched, but whenever I turned around, it just felt like there was a silhouette missing.  Like I knew where it should be, but it was just gone.”

“Oh shit…”

“What?”

“I’ve seen it before.”

“When?”

“A long time ago.  And I know what it is.”

“What is it?”

“It’s your brain.  It’s been missing all your life and now it wants to come home.  OW!”
