Latin American Folklore Creatures

Decietful Allure (Around the fireplace series)

The light of the fireplace cast long shadows on the wall, the fire reflected in the eyes of the woman sitting on the couch with a blanket over her shoulders. She had a bittersweet smile on her face as her mind traveled to the past days, nights long passed, nights she shared with her family when she was a kid. Memories she hoped to bring alive if possible. First story: a story adaptation of a popular folklore in Nigeria; The Princess and the half man; She had sworn on her mother's grave never to be blinded by emotions. But It'd seem she took after her mom in that aspect after all. Throwing all caution to the wind just for a man. She had thought she was different from the rest, leave it to reality to smack her back to her senses. Her feelings for her dad was complicated, she could say she hated him, but that was not quite true, no matter what, he was still her father. The one who pampers and gives in to her every whim. She knew it was partly guilt and the fact she was his only daughter out of a battalion of boys that contributed to his attitude towards her. But so what, she didn't care much for affection, all she had cared for was getting what she wanted, and that had been true about her, until now. Authors note: As a kid my dad will always sit us down at night, outside, in the darkness and tell us the most delightful stories of kingdoms long passed, Princesses and princes, magical creatures, much to the delight of us kids. But there's not much of that nowadays. So I want to share these delightful stories with everyone and I hope by doing this, these stories will not get lost in the sands of time. Thank you, have a nice read.

THE MALEVOLENT CREATURE

“What? YOU NUKED EARTH!!” Well damn, that's a way to start a book. But rn I just know that youre asking yourself "how did all this even start". Well it all began in a simple ceremony.The ceremony that would lead to humanity's EXTINCTION and the planets DESTRUCTION. --- During a prestigious NASA ceremony to celebrate Dr. Halsey's hibernation drug, everything goes upside down as a virus is released to the atmosphere by a man who names himself mastermind. Within seconds it all turns into a global nightmare, as the released virus that mutates animals into human-eating monsters. Leo the son of the Dr Halsey and his friend are consumed into the chaos as they start to get attacked mutated humans and overgrown insects, as they are fleeing, help arrives. The S. W. A. T Come in to the rescue and get Leo and Kai into a helicopter promising the two safety. But as they fly above the city skies, they get attacked by an oversized bat, that kills Kai who was trying to save Leo, but in doing so, Leo would fall off the plane and hit his head on a city pole as he turns night lights off. He is miraculously awoken 3 years into the future where he finds himself In the last and final habitat for humanity, the arc 247. Turns out while Leo was sleeping the world it's greatest fear yet and the invasion was coming in fast, so humans utilised the hibernation drug Leo's father made[Dr Halsey] and left the planet with only a billion humans and then nuked the earth. Hoping to kill off these mutants by they had only added to their problems and made it worse. Truly the phrase best fire with fire went badly for humanity as the creatures started to gain supernatural and unexplainable powers, tabbing into their greatest potential while they started to copy human looks. As Leo is awoken, he is faced by two choices, either to become a formling hunter and join the race to get back the country or refuse and keep sleeping until he is awoken into the further future, where earth are saved by formling hunters. What will he choose?
