The Darkness Consumes

As Emily sat at the dinner table, she couldn't shake off the feeling that something was terribly wrong. Her mom's smile seemed to be growing wider, her eyes glinting with an otherworldly light. The whisper in her ear had left her on edge, and she found herself glancing around the room, searching for any sign of... whatever was happening. Her mom seemed to sense her unease, and she reached out to pat Emily's hand. But as her fingers made contact with Emily's skin, Emily felt a jolt of electricity run through her body. It was as if her mom's touch had awakened a spark within her, a spark that was growing into a flame. Emily tried to pull her hand away, but her mom's grip was like a vice. She couldn't move, couldn't speak. All she could do was sit there, frozen in terror, as her mom's face began to change. At first, it was just a slight distortion, a ripple in the fabric of reality. But as Emily watched, her mom's face began to stretch and contort, her features melting away like wax in a furnace. Emily's eyes were fixed on the horror unfolding before her, and she felt her mind reeling with incomprehensible terror. Her mom's body began to shift and twist, her limbs elongating and merging into a grotesque, inhuman form. Emily's eyes were wide with fear as she beheld the creature that her mom had become. It was a monstrosity, a thing of darkness and shadow, with eyes that glowed like embers from the depths of hell. The creature's true form was a twisted mass of writhing, pulsing tendrils, like a living embodiment of darkness and chaos. Emily's mind recoiled in horror as the creature loomed over her, its presence filling the room with an unspeakable malevolence. As Emily stared into the abyss, the creature let out a deafening scream, a sound that shattered the windows and sent shards of glass flying everywhere. Emily's eardrums burst, and she felt herself being pulled into a vortex of madness and despair. The creature's hot breath washed over her, and Emily felt her body begin to shut down. She was paralyzed with fear, unable to move or speak. The creature's jaws opened wide, revealing rows of razor-sharp teeth, and Emily knew that she was about to be consumed. The last thing Emily saw was her mom's face, or what was left of it. The creature's eyes locked onto hers, and Emily felt herself being dragged into a world of eternal darkness, where she would be trapped forever, screaming in silence. And then, the creature's jaws closed around her, and everything went black. The darkness consumed her, and Emily was no more.
