INVISIBLE PLANT OF DEATH AND DOOM.

INVISIBLE PLANT OF DEATH AND DOOM.

First, a story from my childhood:
I was a young lad of about 5 years old and I lived with my parents in an apartment that resided in Fort Worth Texas. There was nothing special about where we lived, it was modest because of a lack of money so all we really had was a couch and TV. However, this story would be nothing if I did not speak of the devil that lived near the back window. This devil was taller than me, had a green skinny torso, and huge HUGE green “leaves”...or death traps if you will. In some cultures one might call this creature from the bowels of hell a plant, they would be wrong.
One day I was joyfully frolicking around my house with a ball that contained much bounce. On this dreadful day the stars were aligned as so my ball (the one with much bounce as stated before) would not go straight up and down as a bouncy ball very well should. Instead what unfolded next would undoubtedly shape my life. As I bounced the ball one more time my attention was turned away for just one split second as I looked over to my father my once trusted and loyal ball slipped under my foot. I suppose while I wasn't paying attention the creature bribed my cherished ball with promises of dirt and photosynthesis to make these events transpire. With my ball now under my foot I quickly lost my balance and started to fly back in Goofy cartoon fashion, straight towards the creature.
It was dusk and I was placed on my back between a wall that wouldn't move and a creature that wouldn't let me move. I screamed, I kicked, and I pleaded for my fathers help, but none came. No matter what I did the green death traps kept my small frame from emerging from the black zone of death. I must have blacked out after that, because I have no memory as to how I escaped from that awful attack. My only guess is my father saw his son suffering and fade off into blackness and realize he had to save me or I would have been lost forever.



I am one of at least fifteen people that has Botanophobia and the previous is I believe, the reason why. When the assignment was presented to make our own monster, I knew immediately it would be some form of a plant. However, I knew I could not get by on a simple plant because most people, normal people, are not afraid of plants, in fact they eat them regularly. So I decided to indulge into my fear a bit and add some features to make my plant all the more terrifying.
First this plant is evil and it is knowingly evil. It likes being evil so much that when it is on the toilet preforming some plant/sun thing that it is thinking of ways to be evil. The plant could easily not kill people and cut off its crazy thorn beard and become a valuable member of society.
Next on the list of evil death plantness is this plants ability to turn invisible. With his knowingly evilness within him, the power to turn invisible and fade into the black zone off death just makes him a most unstoppable foe indeed! At a moments notice devil plant could pop out of nowhere and strike with his single tooth of death all the while his water droplets of death splash upon you! You can not grab him and attempt to hold him down because he is covered from root to leaf with spiky poison tipped hairs that make up his beard of death and despair! All the while his tentacle and slimy eyes gaze upon you as if you were the last meal left on earth and this was your final hour. Also, he has MLA format memorized and talks about it as he is devouring your flesh and your very being.
