To Be A Drone
By
Jake Bible

The creature gnawed through the flesh, crunching on muscle and fat as it forced its way out of its host. The feeling was exhilarating; a violent birth that would lead to an even more violent life. The chance to be a drone and serve the queen.

The bone came up fast and the creature smacked its round head against several vertebrae, bringing its progress to a full stop.

“Guys? A little help?” the creature hissed.

The creature could hear laughter.

“Larry went backwards and hit the spine,” one of its already free brethren said. “What a lousy chest-burster. Ha!”
