[the apartment at 305 Horton is dark. Because it's night, obviously. But there's something else about the darkness tonight; something sinister. Something moving.]

Hey, boss.

[pinpricks of light appear. Eyes.]

Yeah, boss.

[more of them. Two pairs come closer, but there are a dozen in the back. Two dozen.]

We gotta talk, boss.

Things ain't goin' so well.

All this community organizin' and playin' nice...

[the speakers are close enough now for their forms to be vaguely visible. They're spindly, small, but sharp and full of teeth and claws. And they're not happy.]

You're like a damn cookie mom!

[another one comes in from the side. Bigger.]

's the matter, big guy? Lost your mojo?

We gotta do somethin' about this, Jackie.

Yeah. The boys are gettin'....

hungry.

[Finally, a familiar voice comes on.]

Get outta here.

[the creatures press closer, tighter. There are scores of them.]

Can't, Jackie.

We stay with you.

Because that's what we are.

That's what you are.

[an arm sweeps out. Some of the smaller ones scatter, but the eyes become narrowed.]

And don't go forgettin' what you are, Jackie.

'Cause that day comes...

we'll be here to remind you.

[the arm comes again, but this time with a dark energy around it, an armor. It jumps off onto the creatures and Jackie's back comes into view as he throws a punch at his minions. They finally dissipate, with flashes of writhing dark, a squeal or two from the small and the close.

The man you know as Jackie turns towards the communicator, wrapped up in his unholy armor. His eyes are glowing - again the only light in the room - and they narrow at the unwanted audience before a hand reaches out to turn it off.

Click.]
