Story Time With The Satanic Teddybear

***
The Girl Who Cried Wolf-Monster!

by C.D. Brinker

***

Some say there's demons,

Some say there's ghouls,

Some say there's snarling beasts

That scream and drool.

But none are as frightening

As the horrible wolf-monster,

Or so says a little girl

Named Kayla Voncoster.

But come on, seriously?

A horrible wolf-monster?

How could anyone believe

Little Kayla Voncoster?

"But I know where it sleeps,

I know where it roams,

Deep in the forests

Beyond our homes!

It comes out at night

To howl at the moon,

It frightens the skunks,

The bats and raccoons."

But no one believed her,

They thought it was a slight.

For no one else heard

This wolf-monster at night.

So the villagers laughed

And the children all sneered,

There's no such wolf-monster

Which they should fear.

But when some chickens

From a nearby farm

Were found eaten to death,

It caused much alarm.

"It was the wolf-monster!"

Kayla Voncoster said.

"It wasn't just some fox

Or a cat that wanted fed."

But the villagers all shrugged

And went about their way,

Yet they were quick to their homes

At the end of the day,

No one would admit

They felt a tinge of fear,

For the next full moon

Was approaching near.

And on that dark night

The villagers heard shrieks,

Curiosity got the best of them

So they went to take a peek.

They met out in the street

With torches in hand

And went out searching

Every farm, every land.

And what should they see

Just up in the hills,

A little girl playing,

Running around for thrills.

Yet when they approached

It became quite clear

That it wasn't some girl,

But rather a beast to fear!

With fur like a dog

And a body of a child,

A creature stood snarling,

Tamed, yet wild.

"I told you it was real,"

Said Kayla Voncoster.

"And it's me,

I'm the wolf-monster!"

The villagers all screamed

And ran away from fright,

While Kayla Voncoster

Howled into the night.
