The Box

In the center of MC City, Dr. John, the city's leader, was busy in his pharmacy when he suddenly heard loud screams from outside. Curious and alarmed, he rushed out and was shocked to see a huge monster: its head was a white skull, and its body twisted like black smoke.

Panicking, John ran back inside to grab his handgun. When he stepped out again, the monster was already right in front of him. He fired three shots, but to his horror, the bullets vanished before they could hit it.

Fear overcame him as the monster approached, and in that moment, John fainted.

"John... John," his wife called, shaking him awake. He blinked in confusion. "Was that a nightmare? Why am I outside?"

"It was real," she said, her voice calm. "I saw everything from the roof. The monster left a black metal box. Should we open it?"

John looked at the box, wondering what it could hold. Just then, he heard a voice from a building nearby.

His wife held up a piece of paper that read, "You can open it now."

John laughed nervously. "Masha, you coward."

After a moment, he decided to open the box. His heart raced with anxiety and curiosity.

As the box slowly opened, he was surprised to find a newborn baby inside, a colorful crystal attached to its chest.
