Keeper of the Unicorn

Unicorns aren''t real. Everyone knows that.

Mike doesn''t believe in them either. Why should he?

Then, one day, a mysterious woman appears, riding on the back of a cat and declaring she''s the Keeper of the Unicorns.

What Unicorns?

As if that wasn''t looney enough, the cranky lady instructs Mike to tell her story to the world.

Baffled, the young man refuses. He''s not crazy, after all - or is he?

Suddenly finding himself stuck in the worst nightmare imaginable, Mike is left wondering whether he''s even awake.

The monstrous cockroach crawling toward him sure looks real enough, but any rational person knows that''s impossible... right?

How will he get out of this mess?

Fans of Stephen King or Dean Koontz will enjoy this humorous dark fantasy short story.
