Rain pattered over the shingles of the house and across the grassy earth in a dull roar. It moistened the air and brought a chill on the breeze. A dim orange hue from the candles placed near the window was the only source of light as the clouds above grew thick over the pale silhouette of the moon. The temperature subtly dropped with each passing minute. Yet, in spite of the young woman's sudden worries for this monstrosity sitting before her, the cold had no effect on the beast. If it was effected, the creature did not show it. Unbeknownst to her, it would take much more severe conditions than this to phase it. Another tilt of its head was the monsters only response to Evee's concerned offer. It didn't seem to budge from its spot. Even when she tapped the porch's floorboards to her side, it seemed hesitant. Just a few minutes ago, she had been pleading with it to stay back. It was the first thing she managed to say in her desperate efforts to get away. Finally, it began to sink in that she no longer felt as she did, and the hulking metal beast rose up. A subtle tremble gently shook the ground with each step as the monster trudged over the damp ground, leaving unearthly footprints in the mud. A creaky moan eked out of the hardwood as the floorboards slightly buckled beneath the massive beasts weight as it stepped onto the porch. The small hand rail bent under a large hand and the wooden overhang cracked as the monster pushed its head and broad shoulders underneath it. Splinters of damp wood and dust rattled to the ground. Finally, motion stopped once the creature could loosely be described as 'on' the porch. Its imposing form now hung over Evee as it silently peered down at her obliviously.
