The strange deer didn't worry them until one calmly walked into the bonfire, sending everyone else running for cover as its fur sparked up like fireworks and heavy black smog filled the air, smothering the comforting wood-smoke and choking anyone stupid enough to stay and watch.
From that night onwards the deer seemed to have no amount of fear or sense left in their crumbling heads. They stopped in the middle of busy roads, bathing the tarmac in their blood as they ruptured on impact like overfilled water balloons. They ate through whatever came too close to their misshapen mouths - be it plants, meats or concrete.
Anything was fair game to them.
