Night Owls

Jerry glanced down at the photograph in his hand, then back up again at the woman sitting alone at the back of the cafe.

She had long dark brown hair and green eyes, she looked just like the photo he was clutching, only older.

All at once a blinding light coursed through the space. Jerry and the woman froze. And then a creature appeared, seemingly from the air itself.

It was shimmering blue and white, like it was made of electricity. A metallic smell filled the air and the creature let out an evil childish giggle.
