Black Numbers Slime Novels & Stories

The grand hall is just as suffocating as I remember. Even more so since this is the place where everything ended for me. Gold and black banners hand from towering columns, and the sigil of the Were royal family gleams under the candlelight. The air is thick with the scent of incense, masking the smell of blood, which is faint, but always present.

Violet flickered, then bled out and turned a deep, permanent gold. “What are you doing?” Jasmine screamed, slamming the emergency switch. “Drown her!” Behind the wall, steel gears screamed as the floodgates unlocked. Fifty million gallons of boiling sulfur-sludge roared through the drains below, ready to wipe the shafts clean. It never made it. Eight miles away, Damon was already wrapped around the main southern conduit. He didn’t look like the man she remembered. No cool blue eyes, no clean suit. His skin was black scale and violet light, claws buried three feet into iron.

A strangled scream tore through me as it bared its teeth at me and let out a loud moan and it was wide enough for me to see its entails. It was horror personified. Made of a slimy black substance that clung to bones, it was almost similar to the zombies I saw in horror movies; except, this was very, very real. And worse was, the slime that covered its body was dripping on to my body and wherever it fell, it burned a hole right through my dress and then burned through my skin. “Somebody! Help!” I screamed as tears streamed my eyes, but there was no one other than the creature and me. “Please!” I begged. “Help me!”

The creature's body was slime-like, yet it seemed to have short limbs and a small mouth that produces a harsh hissing sound when it opens. "Don't call them junk," the elderly professor replied. Struggling to stand up from sitting on his chair, he gently placed the book he's reading on his desk, which was also filled with empty laboratory flasks, notebooks and pens. There was a stain of spilled ink covering the upper corner of his disorganized table. His hair and beard are almost white, with visible streaks of gray, and along with his crumpled and stained lab coat, they all seemed to have been unattended for a long while now.

"Because if I'm going into a room full of monsters who view me as a steak dinner, I'd rather not go in looking like an offering." Paoli chuckled. “Does the meaning really matter?” “It does to me,” she said stubbornly. “All right, then," Paoli surrendered with a sigh. "Mortals wear white to signify they're pure. Vampires wear red to signify the blood, and werewolves wear black to signify the night.” She looked at William with the slightest teasing sparkle in her eyes. “Do you wear stripes, then?” she smirked. William chuckled slightly. “I wear gray.”

I need to find him. I was about to exit from the scene when sticky liquid splashed on me. I was petrified as I saw my clothes stained with red. I looked at my hands nervously and I realized that it was blood. A huge amount of blood. Fear spreads throughout my body and my knees shake uncontrollably. My breathing became heavy as I stared at the dead bear. The tiger killed it. I have not escaped. Black bands started to form around me. It must be because of my overwhelming fear that I unconsciously generated Nyx. The bloodied tiger looked into me with sharp eyes.

"If I can get in contact with the thing...maybe it'll guide me. The captain ain't helpin' and Lord knows that kid ain't goin' to go anything but make it worse. If his blood will free us or lift the curse then so be it." He threw the rolled-up cigarette into the sand, grinding it deep with his heel. The ash burned at the hard skin of his bare feet but the pain barely touched him. "Get over here!" He called out to two men returning from the wooded glades. Blood of a small animal stained their shirt and sweat blended in an unpleasant oil painting on their skin. Blake didn't want to know what they had been doing. Having been around the slums of the docks and seen what went on behind the closed d
