The museum, locked up for the night, was dark and quiet. The guard making his rounds couldn't shake the feeling that at times, it could become slightly spooky. He knew it was silly, but sometimes he half expected the exhibits to spring to life. As he walked along, he shone his lantern about, checking to make sure everything was alright. Slowly the guard finished his round, and started to make his way back to his desk. As he passed the prehistoric animal wing, he heard a noise. frowning, the guard looked in. A figure was standing next to one of the exhibits: The Smilodon skeleton.
"Hey! What do you think you're doing? Who are you?"
The figure did not respond, it just continued to fiddle with the display. The guard fumbled with his gun, making his way forward.
"Hey, did you hear me?"
Suddenly a small shape rose up and floated in front of his face. The guard gasped. It was a human skull, fitted out with tubes and machinery. A strange glow shone from one lens covered eye socket, and a long piston powered arm snapped it's claw open and closed. The guard panicked, aiming his gun.
"What the? What is this? Answer me!"
The mysterious figure paused and half turned.
"Do you like my little child?" it asked. "She's a good little girl. Very obedient and eager to please her father. Do you want to see?"
The figure turned it's attention back to the Smilodon skeleton.
"Kill him."
The guard screamed and fired as the skull darted in, snapping at him with it's claw. He never stood a chance...
