Excerpt From Sci-Fi Fantasy novel: “From Earth to Mesmer”
PHOTO PROMPT © Sandra Crook
Bran took the last gulp of water from his flask. A drop fell. It lit up the floor transforming the cave with iridescent light as it rippled outward. Silvery, twenty-foot beams gleaming fiercely, appeared like bright knives along the sides. Then more beams appeared as though marching, closing in on Bran and Zate backing them against the wall.
“I think we found the Nester.”
The one directly before Bran transformed into a glowing face and then its body appeared.
“Human?”
“I’m Mesmer, hybrid.”
“Too much human.”
We’re in trouble.
In a flash they were tossed into a pearly, glowing jail.
Today’s Friday Fictioneer’s photo prompt by Sandra Crook is phenomenally weird! Persepctive is everything! It reminded immediately of one of the aliens in my book series “Earth to Mesmer”. They are 20’ tall, metallic beams until they transform into their iridescent body form. They are infesting Earth, unbeknownst to humans and they don’t like humans. That could be a problem for Earth. It is definitely a problem for Bran, a hybrid Mesmer with a human face.
Hope sci-fi fans enjoy this edited clip. Be sure to jump over to Rochelle Wisoff’s blog for the link to the rest of the stories the fantastic photo conjure up.
