They Walk Among Us

Biology prodigy Jayant Yates led a thirty-member research team deep into the hidden enclave, where they stumbled upon a golden insect that appeared weak but was in fact highly aggressive. The creature spread through bodily fluids, swiftly parasitizing human hosts and transforming them into twisted, mindless monsters. In the end, the entire team was wiped out. Cornered with no way out, Jayant detonated explosives, taking the monsters with him. But his consciousness didn’t vanish. Instead, it crossed over into the body of a twelve-year-old boy, Norbert Sue, awakening once more at the summer camp on the edge of the enclave.
