Chains of the Flesh

The Mother has been out for a day. The others are getting restless, they think she may be dead. I keep telling them they are wrong. I\'ve even had to \"re-educate\" a few to make a point to the others. Yes, their intestines will hold them together for a while. It\'s hard to sew bodies together with those slippery flesh tubes but it gets the point across. Don\'t touch the Mother! Strange things have been happening to the survivors of the battle. Changes, unnatural changes some of them are starting to look like the invaders, jaws getting bigger, teeth getting longer and sharper, some\'s arms are shift to their backs. Also I\'ve noticed that some are beginging to move faster than normal, and others have been getting around at night more easily. I\'ve noticed some changes in me too. My wrists, these spurs are starting to show up on the bottom of my wrists. They don\'t hurt but they are hard and they get bigger as time goes by. What will the mother thing when she sees all this? She already has a hard time being around us as we were. What will she do when she see\'s the new bizzare happenings. The battle was a hard one, maybe the exertion was what started all the changing. I\'ve never seen so many so organized before... besides us that is. And the retreat they made, I didn\'t see or hear a signal.... maybe they just all noticed their losses and tucked tall and ran like the bitches they are. Mother... she has so much hatred for us but yet I can\'t help but protect her, anyone else I\'d snap in half and make a tiny flesh tent out of... but her it\'s like something deep inside compells me, I can\'t fight it. The mutations will keep happening I\'m sure of that. Maybe they will help us fight better or maybe they will make the Mother hate us more. The dreams have been less and less lately, and I think I can safely say. I don\'t miss my human days.
