Midnight… when darkness came alive…
And that night, darkness truly had come alive.
A strange mist had spread across the earth — as if someone had laid a white sheet over everything.
The air suddenly turned cold.
The stars and the moon in the sky slowly disappeared behind dark clouds.
Even the leaves on the trees stopped rustling.
Everything was drowned in an eerie silence… as if the world could sense an unknown danger approaching.
In an old alley in Kolkata, a thirty-year-old man — Mukesh — was stumbling forward in a drunken haze.
Suddenly, he came across a pole.
He kicked it angrily and said,
"Boss! I just took one day off, and you cut half my salary for the month!"
Then…
He saw something from the corner of his eye — an animal, something like a wolf, standing upright on two legs, staring at him.
Its eyes glowed red… and its claws were fully extended.
Mukesh let out a laugh.
"Looks like I drank a bit too much… even dogs are looking like monsters now!"
He approached the wolf.
Patting its head, he said,
"Puppy… don't growl like that… I'm not scared of you."
But the wolf bared its fangs and started growling in rage.
Mukesh, still laughing, raised his hand to pet it again…
The very next moment — the wolf leapt at him!
Mukesh sobered up instantly.
He realized at once — this isn't a wolf or some drunken hallucination… this is a monster!
"Help! Help! This… this is a real monster! Save me!!"
His scream drew some people out of their homes.
One boy said,
"Looks like Mukesh uncle drank too much again…"
But just then…
The wolf had pinned Mukesh to the ground, climbing onto his chest.
With a horrific snarl — it snapped and thrust its claws deep into Mukesh's stomach.
Mukesh's last scream echoed through the entire city.
Several people came running…
And what they saw — would haunt them for the rest of their lives.
The body of Mukesh was torn into pieces.
That monster had ripped out his insides.
Some vomited… others hid their faces in horror.
Then the wolf turned to look at everyone…
And with blood dripping from its jaws, it let out a monstrous growl…
And in the blink of an eye — it vanished. Disappeared into thin air.
People were traumatized and left in shock.
All they could do was stare at the spot — where Mukesh's body had been just moments ago.

The Next Morning…
In the kitchen of a small family…
A woman shouted:
"Raj! Be careful on your way to school… last night, Mukesh uncle was killed by that strange creature."
Just then, a man called out:
"Come here… look what's on TV!"
The woman snapped angrily,
"What now? I work all day… I don't care about TV!"
The man replied,
"Just watch this!"
A news anchor appeared on the TV screen:
"Namaskar! Since last night, a strange phenomenon has been observed around the world.
Trees and plants have grown abnormally — ten times their normal size.
Animals are evolving rapidly.
Werewolves and giant bats have been seen in several areas.
In countries like India, Japan, China, Russia, the USA, and Korea — over 12,357 people have died because of these monsters.
What's really happening?
Is this a natural change or something else?"
"Today we have the head of the Indian Supernatural Bureau with us — Dr. Rajesh.
He will help us understand the reason behind this phenomenon and these changes."
(The anchor brings the mic to Dr. Rajesh)
Dr. Rajesh — a 47-year-old scientist with white hair and glasses — says:
"We've detected a new kind of energy in the air.
This energy can also be seen in plants…
And these changes may be the result of this energy.
It's still too early to say whether this energy is safe for humans or not…
Please, everyone stay indoors until we can say more with certainty."

One Year Later
A man — Kishor — was traveling in a car with his family, driving through a dense forest road near Alipur.
From the back seat, his wife Rupa said anxiously,
"Honey, drive faster… I've heard that because of this aura energy, all the animals in the forest have turned into monsters!"
Kishor laughed, holding the steering wheel,
"Rupa, you're overthinking… there are electric fences all around. No animal can get out."
Rupa insisted more anxiously,
"But Kishor… what if the fence fails?"
Kishor, mocking her, said,
"You're reacting like some monster is going to jump on the roof of our car any moment now!"
Rupa whispered, eyes filled with fear,
"Don't say that, Kishor… I'm getting a strange feeling."
Kishor, now speaking in a slightly serious tone, said,
"Alright, just 10 more minutes… and we'll reach Alipur. Relax."
But…
Right then!
The car crashes into something — a violent jolt!
Thuddd!
The car's bonnet starts smoking.
Kishor's head hits the dashboard — his skin splits open, blood starts flowing down his face.
"Shit! How the hell is there a rock in the middle of the road?!"
Kishor, furious, looks outside.
Then turns back and tries to wake Rupa.
"Rupa…? Rupa, wake up! What happened?!"
He shook her shoulder.
But Rupa was unconscious. Her breathing was steady, but her eyes were shut.
Kishor panicked, and quickly got out of the car — looking for help…
But the moment he looked ahead...
His entire body went cold.
His breath quickened.
Sweat started dripping down his face.
Fear froze in his eyes.
Kishor's heartbeat had now become much more intense than before.
His hands were trembling… sweat dripping down his neck…
Suddenly…
A black shadow with red eyes passed by him at the speed of light!
Its face wasn't clear, but the air felt heavy due to its presence — like death whispering in his ears.
Kishor's whole body started trembling.
Just then…
A big claw struck hard on his head!
Kishor fell down — whimpering in intense pain.
"Aaaahhh! H-help!!"
His scream echoed in the silence of the night…
But no one was there to hear him.
In the next second…
That black shadow was looming above him.
And in one go — it caught Kishor in its mouth and broke him into pieces!
Bones, flesh, and blood — scattered in the air.
The ground turned red…
And that black shadow — once again disappeared into the darkness of night like thin air.

[Scene Change]
9 PM at night…
The roads of the city were crowded with people.
There was a traffic jam — horns and sirens of vehicles… everything was echoing.
But a shadow came running from outside the city — and screamed:
"Monsters… monsters are coming! Run!!"
People looked at him with surprised expressions.
He was a 20-year-old man — covered in blood from head to toe.
He said again, his voice trembling:
"Monsters are coming!! Help! Help…!"
But again, everyone was silent. They were just staring at him.
Then — in a single moment — that man's body was cut into tiny pieces.
Everyone's silence was broken in an instant.
A tiger monster emerged from behind his dead body…
The one with red eyes… from whose body red-colored aura was emanating.
Its sharp teeth, claws, and body — were 10 times bigger than a normal tiger.
Fear appeared on people's faces.
Just then, a man shouted:
"This… this is a real monster!! Run!!"
And in the next moment — the crowd started running in fear.
Some were pushing others, some were stepping on them…
Screams… blood… smoke… everything together.
The very next moment, that monster came running and attacked the crowd.
There was only destruction and pieces of flesh all around — in a moment, a place of joy and peaceful city was turned into a graveyard.
