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.

He made the connection, and froze. He couldn't just walk up to her, something else needed to happen.

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.

The creature let out a terrible screech, and began to advance on Jerry. He locked eyes with the woman, and both had a look of terror on their face.
