A Horror Movie

Young couple walking down the dark, empty street, a little freaked out by the aggressive 
blackness of the night.  It crowds around, silently snarling.

Suddenly, a flash of movement.  There was just time to wonder what the hell was THAT, 
when the world becomes a sharp, painful blur.  Scales blending with dagger teeth, a 
nightmare in green.  Blood, festive red, gleaming on the pavement.

Guess St. George didn't get ALL the dragons......
