Island in the Clouds prompt



….. the island in the clouds are real!! All the years of searching paid off. Scott Johnson and his crew have been looking for the mythical island for years. However, what the crew didn’t know what will be awaiting them on this island. The team’s plane landed on the island and they immediately got out observing the island. As soon as Carl, a member of the team, stepped out the plane a loud, screeching howl was released. The whole team was startled, but Scott insisted that they just look around for a little bit. The island was beautiful. It was a forest of sky scraping trees, the flowers were bright, the grass greener than any other grass they’ve ever seen. Sammy, the third member of the team, seen the flowers and immediately wanted to get one and take it home. She walked to a bright red rose. She reached out for it and as soon as her hand touched a pedal it cut her deeply. It started to bleed profusely. Scott had a medical kit on him, but he didn’t have any stitches, which Sammy needed. He wrapped her finger in plenty of gauze and said she’ll be fine until they get back home. They began walking into the forest. 30 minutes into their expedition they seen a creature unlike anything they’ve seen before. It walked on all fours, fangs as long and sharp as butcher knives; its eyes were large and black, and it had 3 rows of razor sharp teeth that were about 5 inches long. The team stood there in awe and realized that this island wasn’t their scene. Out of nowhere a creature that seemed to look like a flying wolf swooped down grabbing the large fanged creature. The team began to run back towards their plane and noticed they were being chased by, what seemed to look like monkeys with sickles for hands and were gaining speed quickly. One monkey leaped high into the air, stabbing Carl in the back. He dropped to the ground and before being slashed by the sickle he told the team to get the hell off this island. Sammy and Scott were crying and running at the same time. They knew why the government kept this from then, they realized that this wasn’t what it seemed. They saw their plane about 200 yards in front of them. To their right was a creature with the body of a bear, head of a lion, and teeth of a shark running toward them. Scott pulled out his revolver and shot at the creature. He shot him 3 times, but it didn’t seem to faze the creature. The creature ran right past Scott, taking Sammy and running deeper into the forest and eventually climbing a tree. Scott was the only one left now. More scared than ever he knew he had to get off this island. Scott ran up into the plane fidgeting to get it started. In front of him, 6 mammoth-like creatures came stampeding toward him. Behind them was a huge dinosaur-like creature that looked hungry. Scott didn’t plan on dying, so he tried to pull off. Before he could, the mammoth-like creature rammed the plane knocking Scott unconscious. He woke up several hours later. It was dark now. He heard howls and snarls everywhere. He had no way to get off the island now because his plane was wrecked. He took out his revolver, put it to his head and pulled the trigger. Nothing came out, no more bullets, stuck on the island in the clouds to die. Behind him he heard a loud howl and grunts. He turned around and seen two creatures that, for some reason had very familiar eyes. One was a bull-like creature with blood dripping from his face, horns long and pointy, hooves as hard as granite, and his tail was spiked. The other was a sheep-like creature with a tongue like a snake, and razor sharp teeth. They charged him furiously and there was nothing he could do. As soon as the bull-like creature rammed him he realized that these were the eyes of his crew; Sammy and Carl. Could these be his friends? The islands on the clouds were discovered by many other explorers who never made it off. An island not to be tolerated with. Forever will it stay in the clouds awaiting more people to die by the creatures who populate the island. They die then become creatures that are to be trapped in the clouds for eternity.
