<USS Eagle> "Things that go bump in the night."

 
Melody woke up to an awful smell. Opening her eyes she was again laying in that 
foul smelling hallway, completely naked. The stench of unwashed bodies mixed 
with waste, the smell of blood and death forced itself into her nostrils. This 
was worse then before because the floor here was wet as well. In the dim light 
she couldn't make out what it was, and she really didn't want to know. Melody 
looked around hopeing to see Ratchet, Gwen or Casey but she was alone.  She 
stood, shivering not because it was cold, it was far from cold here, Melody was 
frightened. She walked down the corridor again to the open door. This time no 
blue people, at least not in the whole sense. A single red creature stood at 
what seemed to be a huge blood stained bucher's block. He was eating someone's 
arm. Melody couldn't help herself as she went into dry heaves and collapsed to 
the floor with a splash. It turned to look at her. Melody's eyes widened with 
terror as she realized he was looking right at her
 . It
 said something that strangely sounded like the words "Fresh Meat." Melody 
leapt to her feet as it advanced. A smile played on its lips as it bent down to 
look Melody in her eyes.  The creature inhaled, smelling her and let out a Mmmm 
as it exhaled. Melody was shakeing uncontrolably as it inhaled again. "BOO!" It 
yelled at her and Melody lost it . She ran back up the hallway. She could hear 
it laughing a horriably, gleefuly, evil laugh as it bounded easily after her. 
She turned a corner and ran right into a huge red leg. "GRR!" It growled at her 
and nashed its pointy teeth. Melody slipped on the wet floor and scrambled 
backwards. She ducked between the legs of the oncomming red Beast. It howled in 
merriment as its prey went fleeing back up the corridor it had just chased her 
down. But now she had two of the red demons tailing her and she was at wits end 
with fright. Things only got worse from there becuse it seemed that everywhere 
she turned another red thing would block her 
 path.
 They had poor Melody surrounded. One of them wrapped its huge red hand around 
her. She could feel its strength. There was no way she could break it's grasp.  
It raised her above its head and opened its mouth. She could smell the blood 
and rotted flesh on its hot breath. It opened it hand and Melody slid from its 
palm, falling into its open maw. 
 Melody screamed....as she fell out of her bed. An alarm went off in ME as the 
sonics of her scream mixed with the altered atmosphere of her quarters bent the 
ceiling above Melody's bed. There was no where on the ship that the her scream 
wasn't heard and several security people rushed to her quarters. The entered 
Melody's room to find her balled up on the floor, tangled in her sheets her 
eyes wide with fright, the sheets soaked.  Melody had to be given a seditive to 
calm her down. Security was dissapointed that it had only been a nightmare...
