THE MIDNIGHT CREW-FLASH FICTION

I thought today I would give you a little cat magic. Hope you enjoy!

 
The Midnight Crew
 
They start off as tendrils of grey black smoke that rises out of the darkness with yellow and gold eyes.
High pitched howls make the darkness shiver. They slither like snakes in the darkness and their tails swish in the moon’s light. There is a group of five. They call them the Midnight crew and what they do is slink and prowl the neighborhood.
Everything should be indoors when this crew is out and about. Trouble is what you will be in for if you encounter one of them.
One of them by the name of Black Star is the leader. He looks for mischief and chaos.
If you do meet up with old Black Star, he will want to strike a bargain with you. Be wary as he is quite the one to conn. Hisses and spits nearby warn you not to make any deals. Do listen.
Another of the group, LightFoot, will also make deals behind Black Star’s back. He’s even more dangerous. It’s best not to even let on you’ve seen them.
Walk really fast and keep your eyes looking ahead. Don’t even once glance to the side, even if you think there is a dark shadow by your side or this strange vibe that you’ve picked up that something is following you.
Because there probably is. Dark grey smoke with sharp eyes and tails swishing back and forth waiting to pounce you if you dare look back.
So take heed at the midnight hour. A certain crew is on the lookout and they are not looking out for you.
They are simply waiting for you.
