That Creature

 Somehow he could not shake it out of his head. That creature underneath the house. Every day they walk down the steps it either growled or snapped at their feet. It came to their house not long after a NASA space launch in 1996 or whichever was broadcasted on TV that year. No matter who came by to film the freaking thing the moron they sent never believed them. His elitist cocky attitude said he only wanted to watch the best teams win the championships. Whatever go filmed of this thing was either erased over by sports addicts or confiscated. Everyone somehow knew about it. Yet they were silent about it. Yes the MIB came by along with any military or police officers to shut them up. However their orders to keep quiet did not last long. More people reported seeing similar creatures only to be drowned by pop culture trends, sports fanatics, Clinton's reelection, Bosnian crisis, and whatever wells was going in the 90s. Someone got a good shot of what it looked like with a camera while someone else caught it on film. About the size of a baby that can stand upright, bald, no nose to speak of, and private parts that resemble a fleshy crocodile's mouth. One day a mother got fed up with it and sprayed it with a garden hose. According to the report it melted away like some kind of science fiction movie monster. 

Whatever it was it did not look real enough for people to believe. At another location a child ran up the stairs and stabbed the creature with a pencil. In the report this creature somehow got loose out of the attic held a girl hostage. It was when one of the families whose daughters took ballet hosted some party or sleep over. This creature held this girl captive, threw an officer down the stairs to his death, killed a firefighter with its spiked arms or something. Whoever this child was he killed it and survived being thrown down the steps. Other pieces of this story came to mind as he sat in his chair. Men who looked very much like this child came to that town. These men did not seem human. Each one appeared seven feet tall, intimidating, muscular, dressed in alien attire with a hint of fantasy medieval style. What set them apart from people on Earth was their monkey like tails. This creature was called a Daedros by these men who barely gave authorities a name to go by. What was also evident according to them was these creatures were experiments sent to attack another planet similar to Earth. 

Different factions were the only thing these men cared about. Their kingdom was at war with some crazy group of others hell bent on taking over or wiping out life. On their right should blade rested their flag, a black crown on a field of red. One of them a warrior was said to have hunted these creatures down while visiting this town. As he did so he sort of acted happier, and friendly around people. It was assumed being around people made him this way. Yet as he sat there on the chair this alien's interaction with him revealed that killing those monsters made him feel better. It was this tall alien human's mission to kill these things. As for the child, his mission was completed by the little boy with the pencil. While sitting there he found the photograph of this thing on the armchair. He brought it out of a shoe box, which he kept hidden. Inside was a patch with the black on a field of red next to photos of other creatures of the same nature and mutation.
