Gary was already halfway through one of his heavily practised answers when he glanced up from his watch. He had vaguely listened to the question from the Fox News reporter, safe in the knowledge that only five minutes remained of the press conference.

The room descended into pandemonium as he assumed his true form, sending the table of microphones flying as he burst forth to feast on anything with a pulse.

15 minutes and a few silver bullets later, the cleanup team was in full flow; only two witnesses’ memories left to wipe.
