That is one big pile of shit,” The man remarked before getting back in his car. Every vehicle behind them had also stopped with their drivers and passengers also staring at the monster. The man stopped his car and opened his door as the woman did the same, looking at the Smog Monster in fear. It gurgled as its red eyes, now with toxic green pupils, looked down at the humans in the area then at the pollution in the air. The monster looked as if it was made of pollution, sludge dripped off of its odd looking hand as it walked toward the city. The creature grew to nearly the size of a skyscraper as a result of its transformation. The thing swimming in the water began reach the shallow part of the ocean, and a purple glow surrounded its body. The woman looked at him as she pointed at the window. “What is it?” He asked as he turned his head her way while driving. The woman frantically patted her husband on the shoulder. Soon she saw two crimson red eyes rising out of the water as it made its way to the city. As the thing swam closer to land, it got closer to the surface. Something was swimming in the ocean and it was way too big to be a shark. The woman raised an eyebrow and leaned closer to her window as she saw a shadow in the water. She saw the water many times but today something was different. The woman in the seat next to the driver looked out the window to see the ocean next to the city. ![]() The wheels carried the red car on the road, making its way to a bridge. The traffic light finally turned green and the cars at the start of this line of vehicles moved. The air pollution was thick, causing people on the ground to cough. Exhaust gas escaped their vehicles and traveled to the air, joining the cloud of smog in the sky that polluted the area that wasn’t just caused by the cars’ exhaust, but smoke from factories lingered as well. They had jobs to get to, homes to go back to, places to go and they were stuck in a manmade sea of mobile steel. Many cars were lined up on the streets, traffic was awful today, drivers waited impatiently for the traffic light to turn green. Authors: Jolene Steinard | Banner: Matthew Williams
