Are Medusa's body hairs actually just tiny snakes?

Bio


I'm a sucker for romance, sci fi, fantasy and just about any modern city with a twist like monster hunting or super powers. Been writing for years, I didn't learn how to read till I was 12 so the moment I got the hang of it, I could not stop. Filling journals with stories one after the other, my younger sister eventually got me into role playing and it created a monster. I will play with you all day if you reply, post for post and will give you as much detail as I can.

Looking up at the sound of the speakers Namid was found with a stallion looking at her, waiting for the woman to move. "What? I'm not staff yet" the beast just stomped his hoof, his tail flicking he seemed to almost narrow his eyes at her. "Yeah? So what if the lizard boy is there, I said I would think about it."

Seeming to roll his eyes Dolsha grabbed his partner, teeth latching onto the sleeve of her shirt and dragging her to the meeting. Shuffled footsteps yet she did not pull away. She found out a long time ago you don't pull away from a pushy creature.

Standing on the upper level Namid began to lean on the banister, Dolsha looking to vanish from the lighting as she watched what was going on. People ranging from children to her elders all sat down waiting to hear how the start of their year was. Beasts of all types in the bodies of every day animals. "Guess this place has a good crop of students."

Once Brick was out Chase was already making his way to another spot. Armed and loaded he found a ladder climbing with all he had left he hissed in pain from his shoulder till he climbed up to the roof. The sound of the minigun echoing through the air once again turning the place into a war zone.
The roar of the beast followed soon, turning in a bray of dust as it tried to claw at the wall, salivating with a look of crazed eyes trying to get whatever was causing it pain. "Time to take you down" a click of the gun he narrowed his gaze, letting out a shot right into the beast's hide. A roar following once again it charged to his spot, "holy shit you're stupid."

It was like a game, trying to keep the beast from the other shooters between Eden, Chase, Brick, and Reese. Even Aurora took in a sneak attack once it was getting too interested in the minigun. Another click Eden felt her shoulder take in the recoil, her gaze that of focus, each bullet going into his joints. "Come on, just go down quickly." She was tired of causing it so much pain, yet another click caused her to see that it was empty. Loading quickly she was about to give another shot only for the ground to give out under her.

Claws, scales and teeth where all that she saw on her way down. A piece of steel was all she had for protection against that thing, her only barrier as she fumbled for her blade. "Come on come on" the sound of the steel coming through to the air was the sweetest sound she had heard in some time as she used all her strength to stab it through it's throat, a howl of pain it throw up it's head, crimson leaking through as it back up only for a moment. Turning back it snapped it;s jaws, anger seething through it's core.
James

Seeing the familiar roads and sights James began to relax, yet the sound that he was used to, borderline boring of nothing but the calls of cows and humm of tractor was overrun by the roar of honking horns as car by car was turned away. "Don't listen to anything they say...." Recalling the text he pulled his phone out again only for it to show nothing new. "Shit.."

He recognized some of the faces, showing up to make deals with Reena he seemed to be slightly okay, looking over his shoulder he took in a shaky breath. "James, its James, just wait, I'll be back." Swinging his leg off the back he jogged to the check point only for a chill to run down his spine when he realized what they were holding. Each one heavily armed as though they were going to hunt down some grand beast from lore.
"Hey, I work for Misty Meadow..Its owned by Miss Reena, listen I'm just trying to get past here shes been trying to get me to her barn so we can tie everything down."

Eyes cold they looked as though they were being told a joke as they shook their head through the awaiting silence. "Yeah we know you kid, and no your not getting in. I like Reena, shes smart a damn good hunter and would help out. But you? Oh no not you, your just a punk who went running, don't need ya."

He felt his hands begin to ball up in fists, "Let me in! Look I'll show you, shes been testing me telling me I need to come in so let me in dammit!"
Taking out his phone he was about to show them only for the farmer to take it and throw it out. "Get out, don't need kids like you fucking things up."

He felt like he wanted to throw up as he was pushed aside, the road still closed as he walked back he was forced to look at the two who helped him through here. The image of the corpses walking through the streets burning in his mind he pulled at his hair to try and push it away as he shook.
"Come on, I know the way on foot and shes bound to be riding near." Looking to the woods that were looming next to them he pointed further down. "Theres a trail a little ways down that people took dirt bikes on." There was no way he would just give up on a safe spot, one had to work for it. And honestly, after that humiliating set back he would be more than happy to see the looks on their faces when they realized that they just walked through with others. "Those ass hole's aren’t letting anyone in, and I don't see that happening anytime soon. I doubt she even knows how bad this is."
I understand :)
@Sohtem

Mentioning her sister Eden glared a bit, eyes narrowed as she looked at him from the corner of her gaze before getting the beast back into her sights. "Anything that has a chance of hurting her will be cut down." She didn't comment on anything but her goals, her voice even yet a hint of a threat at the edge of her tongue.
Nothing good has ever come from being nice to someone. Aurora was not stuck here in this hell hole because she decided to be nice to others. She just wanted to go back home, back home and forget this only for another bit of chaos to take it's place.

"Its a natural part of life, that thing would have died of starvation if it did not eat, and once it's taken down than it will lengthen the lives of survivors." Mind of a huntress she clicked her tongue, she hunted down the creatures that would have been the stuff of nightmares, only to find them caring for their young as dedicated mothers. "These guys are all the same, they don't like something so they'll take everything down to kill it. I feel more bad for the animal down there."

Holding the barrel she steadied her breathing as it began to finish. "It was only trying to live another day."

A sigh escaping her lips she shook her head at the offer. "Your best bet is to stay up here, its legs are shorter in the front, built for speed, not for climbing, its on the ground its not getting back up without help." She was just hoping that Aurora was finding something big, the lock of her gun sounding through she let out a long breath, the male telling her his name only to gain silence in return. She was never too fond of talking about herself.
It only took one bullet

A yell of her own sounding through the air she got it's attention the moment it went looking for more. A roar challenging her, Eden went to the other side of the building, launching herself to a near by platform barly landing right only to shoot another bullet to buy the other's more time as it clawed and scrapped the walls to try and end the nusence that was shooting it. "Thats right, stay with me."
@Crossfire

Aurora was already wheeling inside, Chase behind her as she looked through the shop with a determined gaze. "Can't handle a 50 calibre, thing will launch me across the room, so you guys take those, I'll stay inside and use whatever I can to cover you. If I get caught I'll be useless to you guys." She was already looking for something to use, her options limited due to the wheels rolling whenever a gun in her hand would be used.

Chase was already holding the rifle when she found it, a smirk on his face yet his eye uneasy, yet the red head kept looking outside trying to figure out what to do. "You can't stay together, got to shoot it from different sides and hope it don’t go for you. Thats the best chance we got, it doesn’t look like the climbing type so try to get to some higher ground okay guys? I can buy you some time but if it gets in here I'll be killed in three minutes tops."
@Sohtem
Eden simply watched the carnage unfold, eyes at ease as she stood in a relaxed position. They would have done so much worse to her if she had not attacked first. Turning around she grabbed her blade, the sound of sheathing it speaking louder to her than the screams below. Her hand grasping behind her she pulled out her water skin made of scales, taking a long drink as if nothing was going on about her.

Raising a brow at the comment she just shook her head, not speaking for a while as she took another drink. "That thing is showing more mercy than he had." Another round of screams echoing throw she sat down, waiting for it to be over only to roll her eyes at the doctor's comments. "I can treat myself."

Yet something was finally gaining her attention when she realized that her sister was still outside. A hiss escaping her she grabbed her rifle, loading it as she took aim, her voice sounding scracty and uneven as she yelled out to the red head. "Find big, loud and mean!" She knew Aurora better than anyone, the woman having a habit of calling weapons by names that still belonged to a child.

Aurora herself found her eyes growing wide when she watched the two run only to be attacked by the beast, holding her hand to her face in horror as she could only watch.
Looking up to see Eden load though she sucked in her breath, she was waiting for that thing to move to keep it's attention. "Brick..Brick whats the meanest gun you got that we can shoot in here? We're next on that thing's plate."
go figure, the forces of fallout have brought us together XD
@Crossfire
Oh man I'm sorry, live out on a ranch but its also a half hour drive to the city so I am blessed. Just have to say if you get the chance, take it I missed half the movie from laughing so much.

I won't be here tomorrow, I have a show I have to do but its only for a day and school is out till Wednesday so I'll be open for a while to keep things going.
The Kid

Climbing on the back of the bike James tried his best not to stare too long. The city was in ruins, screams escaping through the streets, humans that should have never been so mutilated, organs outside their bodies and yet they stumbled across the carnage, arms slightly raised as though they were grabbing the air itself to keep standing.
it was their jaws that made him uneasy, smacking with no noise in a silent scream. Yet what caused him to look away was the corpses that began to run, the absolute stuff of nightmares.

"Take a left up on 21st street" looking around at what still sparked normal memories of getting to work caused a strange ping his chest. He would be so board seeing the same thing over and over again but now he wanted nothing more than to see that same tagged wall and broken window that he would look through each morning.
Going over the bridge though he saw why Reena told them to take the back roads. Stand still traffic lined below them for miles, the honking of horns sounded through the sirens even as he watched in horror eaten bodies clawing at the cars and attacking any that had the misfortune of not being sealed. "There not letting anyone out of here..." That only meant that they had to be under some kind of quarantine, they had to get out, they had to.
