The Hellephant By: Dossta
DNA can be a funny thing. Flip a gene here and the resulting offspring is sterile. Twist this one around and the kid winds up twice as big as either parent. And this one? Lets just say that there's a reason why some genetic experimentation is very, very illegal.

The Shadowbeasts By: caesar193

The sun rises over the city. The great skyscraper's silhouettes from the fresh beams appear almost golden. The city is waking up, with the morning's half asleep citizens going about their daily routines. Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts open up, and revel in the influx of business. People head to work. The clocktower chimes, signaling the time of 9:00. But then a great shadow blocks out the sun. And the citizens of this metropolis start to scream as they are lifted up bodily by these beasts. An hour full of terror and screams goes by. And then another. And when the clocktower chimes again, signaling the time of 11:00, no one heard it. They had all been carried away. There were no flaming wrecks, nor collapsed buildings, as any other giant monster would leave. Simply empty streets, and a forbidding silence.
