The Mono Grande

Be Warned

The Mono Grande is Latin for large monkey. Its existence dates back centuries. Sightings of these creatures are extremely rare and don’t have much evidence. They roam in packs similar to wolves. The race is only male but, they reproduce like most mammals with a male and a female. They kidnap human females rape them and impregnate them. The birthing process is quick maybe a day at the most. They are born within hours and it is the most excruciating pain a human being could ever endure. All mothers die immediately after the birth of the cub. The cub devours the soulless corpse of the mother. I know you’re wondering what does any of this have to do with anything. Hm, this information is more important than you think.

It was October 14^th 2012 me and my friends Anne, Sarah, Jacob, Marcus and Christie were in our school cafeteria trying to find some plans for Halloween obviously excluding trick or treating . We just stared awkwardly at each other waiting for someone to think of something. Finally Jacob suggested that we right our own creepypastas have them printed and ready to read by the 31^st. that’s when I snickered “that’s not much of a plan we do that all the time”. I’m not finished okay, once we have them prepared we go to the woods and have a reading over a campfire, you know typical slasher film scenario. every one began to nod in agreement and I thought to myself what could possibly go wrong. We had no clue what was to come. *Sigh* I’m getting ahead of myself.

The bell rang and we all went to our buses eager to begin writing. Sitting alone on the bus I stared out the window wondering what I was going to write about. It can’t be the typical creepypastas I’ve always done. No it had to be something stranger than a “creepy.exe “file or an odd creature that stalks you from a distance. My bus arrived at my stop. I got off the bus, opened my front door, threw by backpack to the ground, and slowed walked towards my computer. Having no inspiration I go to a trusted friend for help… Google. What should I Google I lightly utter to myself. Maybe urban legends. I found a list of 10 creepy urban legends. Some of them were kinda creepy like the aswang. A lot of them were accompanied with a drawing of the creature but we all know creepypastas are only creepy with a realistic picture evidence, at least to me they are. That’s when I saw the Mono Grande. I believe it was ranked number 10 not sure it’s been awhile. I was impressed with the fact no one else has ever thought to use this in a creepypasta before I mean who knows it could be the next slender man or Jeff. It even had this creepy a*s picture of one. It was pretty dated which made it even creepier. I was so excited I began typing that day.

It’s October 21^st and I can’t wait for the 31^st. only ten more days till Halloween. This is the first time in years that I’m excited for Halloween. We’re all back at the lunch table and chatting among ourselves when Marcus brings up our plans for the 31^st. does anyone want to give a teaser of what they’re writing about? Anne interrupted Marcus to show us what she’s been working on. Well i don't want to give too much away but mine is gonna be about the pint sized slasher from fallout 3. Ugh what is it “haunted?” Marcus remarked. You’ll find out soon. Anyone else wants to show what they have so far. Jacob volunteered himself. He stood up and began to speak in a disguised voice. Sleep Paralysis is more than what you think it is. No Prescription or medication will help. The evil conducted in your room while you sleep is all due to one man. “Hatman”. I begin to nod showing how impressed I was. Okay anyone else Jacob says in his natural voice. What about you mike. I look up. Everyone is staring at me waiting for my teaser. I laugh and say ten more days’ guys you can wait. The bell rang so I grab me things and make my way towards the bus.

I rush to my computer. I don’t even know if I locked the front door or not but I’m too concentrated to care. I must have been typing like a stenographer. Before I know it I have an additional 3 pages. All I need to do is wrap up this story and I’ll be ready for Halloween. My hands grew weary of typing so I decide to check my email seeing that it had been at least a month since I got on “yahoo.com”. I have a few emails most of them are ads but one is directed to me. The subject was Mono Grande. I grew curious so I opened the email. It read stop whatever you are doing. The Mono Grande are real and don’t like to be known. Why do you think there is little evidence of their existence? I warn you stop while you are ahead. I tried to email that person back but there was no address and every time I tried I got an error pop up. Thinking it was a prank from Marcus or Jacob I brush it off. I couldn’t help but wonder how they found out I was writing about the Mono Grande.

The next day at lunch I bring up the email I got yesterday. I asked both Marcus and Jacob did they prank me but they were both believably had no idea what had happened. The email began to bother me a little but I hid my worry with a smile. Now this time when I got home I finished the creepy pasta finally and go back to that email. Strangely I can’t access it again I could click it but nothing would happen, it wouldn’t open. I refreshed the page and even logged off and on but it wouldn’t open again. I decide to log off the computer for a little while.

Finally the day has come it’s the 31^st, Halloween. I couldn’t wait for tonight. At lunch we talked about what were going to bring and who’s going to bring it. We settled on roasting weenies and s'mores for a desert. When I got home my computer was broken. It wouldn’t even turn on. Normally that would have completely killed my spirit but I had a back up of my creepypasta on a flash drive. I just ran over to the library and printed it off there. By the time I got back it was 4:55 still a good 3 hours before Marcus came to pick me up. I fire up my Xbox 360 and loose myself in a “skyrim”. I hear a knock at the door. Mike it’s me Marcus come outside. I check my watch its 8:05 time to go. I grab my creepypasta and leave locking the door behind me. Everyone else was in the car waiting on me. I squeeze in beside Sarah.

We arrive in the woods shortly thanks to Marcus and his GPS system. We set up some lawn chairs, started the fire and began to roast weenies. We had decided to read our pastas after the meal. I sat to the right Marcus and Jacob to his left with the girls giggling at whatever was on their phone just across from us. Marcus whispered to me you think I should ask out Sarah. “Sarah”? I responded. Yeah she’s been flirting with me for a while. How so I said. Well she stares at me during science and she even went to some of my football practices just to see me, she told me that herself. I don’t know Sarah is kinda like a bro you know. Yeah well bros don’t have c-cups. We all broke out in laughter. The girls just stared awkwardly wondering what was so funny.

Can we get this started Sarah blurted out. Sure who wants to go first I said. Anne Of course interrupts me to start her terrifying tale of the pint sized slasher. It was pretty good with a decent ending. When she was finished Sarah did hers with assistance from Marcus and Jacob did his after. Marcus had concluded his after Jacob then it was on me. I began to read. My heart raced faster and faster after each word I said. I look at their faces as I went on through the story. It was the happiest I have been in awhile. Little did I know it would be the last time I would be happy as well. Jacob knowing that Sarah story had the pint sized slasher in it bought a pint sized slasher mask from eBay. It’s obvious what his intentions were. He hid behind some bushes further into the darkness of the woods. Sarah alerted everyone that she is going to the bathroom. Marcus asked if she wanted him to go with her but she politely declined. She took a flashlight her phone and left. I look at Marcus and said I hope this is worth it. Marcus just nodded. Maybe a minute or two after Sarah had left we hear a shriek of terror. We hop up out of our chairs. Wow he really did it. We wait hoping to see Jacob laughing and running back to the bonfire with Sarah chasing behind him. Instead we saw something….something we’d never forget. It was a terrified Sarah soaked head to toe in thick ruby red blood. She ran squinting barely able to see through the blood blurring her vision. She ran right into Marcus’ arms. Marcus took off his jacket and used it as a towel to clean up some of the blood on her face. What happened? I asked her. She just kept muttering its coming its coming.

That’s when a horrible howl could be heard coming from the darkness of the woods. It was the most petrifying sound I had ever heard. It boomed through the woods crippling who ever could hear it. We started to feel the ground shake as if Bigfoot was approaching. Then something poked out of the trees. It was a Mono Grande. Exactly like the one in my picture. Its mouth was stained with blood and a pint sized slasher mask was stuck in its teeth. Then the thing began to talk. It said I told you we don’t like people knowing about us. Anne almost without hesitation took off into the woods with no sense of direction. It began to slowly approach Marcus. Marcus did the most dishonorable thing a person could do in a situation like this. He pushed Sarah directly in front of the beast. The Mono Grande grabbed her and lifted her toward his mouth. His jaw began to expand like a cobras jaw. His mouth was a cave compared to her skull. Once he fit his mouth around her head his mouth clamped her head off. It was disgusting hearing her skull crush in his mouth. Hearing her bones grind against his teeth as he chewed. Blood poured out of his mouth like a leaky faucet.

It tossed the headless body of Sarah at Marcus’ feet. We quickly glance at each other and take off in different directions. I run deeper and deeper into the darkness. I stumble over branches and rocks but I keep going till I finally trip over a stump hiding in the darkness almost as if it purposely put its self there. I pick myself up off the ground and turn on my flash light. There’s only to directions. Forward or backward. I move forward trying to keep my sanity. It just killed them. My closes and best friends I’ve known since middle school. Oh and Marcus that B*****D murdered Sarah. I don’t get it, how do you kill something you love with no remorse. I cringed in repugnance. “If I ever see him again I’ll” I pause after hearing rustling in the bushes. My flashlight is rendered useless; the light just gets consumed in the darkness. The rustling gets louder and louder till whatever it was in the bushes was breathing down my neck. I run for dear life with flash light in hand. I can hear the fast pace thumping of the Mono Grande chasing after me. I see a clearing at the end of the trail and I stop there. I honest to god have no idea how I gathered the bravery to confront this creature. I guess I had had enough. I look for a weapon and find a club like branch.

I turn around and there it was staring at me eye to eye. I can still see scraps of Jacobs mask stuck in its teeth. It had this psychotic blank stare in its eyes almost as if it was looking through my falsified courage. I jump and bash him right in its right eye. It stumbles back and shrieks from pain. It took its fist and hit me in my hip. It hurt like hell. I use all my force to smash his rib cage. He hits the ground causing it to shake. I stagger but kept most of my balance. I hovered over it holding up the branch over my head. It smiled at me and tried to laugh hiding the pain of breathing with broken ribs. I demolish his face with my branch. I beat his face over and over and over again. Giving a battle cry that grew louder with every hit. Blood gushed all over my face and shirt. Its blood was a black thick and gamy. It felt like I stuck my hand in sludge. Upon the last few attacks Marcus came running in. he stopped about 5 feet away from me. I turn around angrily staring at him. “Hold on mike now lets be reasonable.” he said. I didn’t want to do that to her. It was automatic. I just stared and approach him. He backed up as I got closer.

Not looking behind him he tripped over a large rock. I raised my weapon to the sky ready to send him to his grave. That’s when I heard Rustling in the bushes behind him but Marcus was too scared to notice. I threw the stick to the ground and walked toward the Mono Grande corpse. I glance at the ground and saw the car keys that belonged to Marcus. they must have fallen when he fell over the rock. I turn around to see a gang of smaller Mono Grande circling Marcus. One of them dragged a woman’s body with them. It was Anne’s body. Maybe she’s not dead. I rush behind some huge boulders to hide. I glance over the boulder to see the Grande tear each limb off Marcus. The first one yanked his whole right arm out the socket. Next was his left leg. Finally one of them pulled his head out from the stem. His entire spinal cord was still attached to his now decapitated head. I gagged as brain matter and blood rained on the Mono Grande.

That’s when I noticed Anne was alive but not for long. As she was gaining consciousness they gang raped her Brutally. I heard her shrieks for help but I could do nothing. If I went out there we would both be dead. I couldn’t take her cries no long and pressed my hands against my ears trying my hardest to keep her out of my head. I just sat there hands on my ears crying for what felt like eternity. Then finally the yelling stopped.

I glance at Anne to see what they had done to her and….and I’d rather just not say. I struggled to keep my vomit down to keep me invisible to the monsters. Her stomach began to rapidly grow to the size of a watermelon. Something began to press against her stomach barely piercing the skin. It was an infant Mono Grande. They impregnated her. Tears ran down my face. It was horrible. Whatever was pressing against her stomach had successfully punctured her. It went down the side of stomach cutting her open even more. It sounded like a knife being driven through leather. The infant slowly pulled its self out of her stomach.

It shook off the blood on its fur like a dog after a good hosing. I crawled over to Anne’s corpse and consumed her head like a snake eating a rat whole. They then looked toward my way. My heart dropped. I was put into shock I couldn’t move; my only thought was its over. They all ran closer and closer toward me. Right when I thought I was finished they ran right past me. I didn’t see the infant but I could care less I just wanted to get out of this hell on earth. I limp back to the bonfire to find Marcus’ car still there. Untouched by the chaos that roams these woods. I took off the blood soaked jacket and threw it in the passenger seat. I sigh and begin to drive home. Civilization was just 20 miles away. My mind could finally rest, but it didn’t. After all that had happened tonight I don’t know how ill recover. And I know you’re wondering why the other Mono Grande didn’t attack me. Well the blood on my jacket masked my human scent. As things were looking up finally the car is low on gas. Knowing Marcus he probably had a spare tank in the back seat. I turn around to see if one is in a seat. I couldn’t find one. I feel around on the car floor for one. I reach to grab it. As I lift myself up back into my seat I get a most unpleasant surprise. The infant Mono Grande was staring at me through the wind shield eye to eye standing on the hood of the car.
