Chapter 1

It was unfortunate that it was on their honeymoon that their corpses were found strewn on the floor, so decapitated and truncated that it was hard to know where their face ended and their neck started.

It was on Christmas day that the grizzly murder had taken place. Olivia and Mark were out in the Stellar Garden when a sudden movement in the bushes caught their eye. While investigating the source of the noise, a machete poked out from the dense flora, dealing a fatal strike to Mark's face, rendering him useless. Olivia tried to run but the thing that was attacking them was quicker and slashed her chest. Although they were practically dead, it continued to attack then suddenly it bent down and stuck it's face into the guillotined carcass and began to feed ravenously.

Two police officers on guard duty unwarily approached the patch of garden that the young couple had been brutally assassinated. Horror-stricken, the older officer reached for their shared walkie-talkie when a katana forced it's way across his back, through his ribs and out through his chest, a bloody heart impaled on the end.

With that, the thing left, leaving it's agonised victims to be seen.
