Horror of the Void

Enjoy an excerpt from a short story I'm developing. Full story coming out soon-ish.

Jay dreamed he was on a commercial passenger starship. The kind that has theme parks and pools and neighbourhoods, that was more city than starship. He dreamed that he was in a mall, on the second floor, gazing over the balcony to the white tiled ground floor below. There were some people milling about, but the mall was mostly empty and silent. There was a statue on the ground floor. Humanoid but featureless and faceless. It stretched more than three metres up, its limbs extruded and fingerless. Where a nose or mouth or eyes should be, there was a hole, and from it something thick and black dribbled down into a puddle on the floor. Jay could see his scared black eyes reflected and distorted in the gloss of it. The reflection stripped him of his years and bravado, reflecting only the terrified child inside. He was buffeted away by other characters in his dream and the more he saw of them the more empty they looked. Slowly, he was dragged through black fog into the waking world. Terror was not the word. It was dread, a feeling like he was on the Titanic, and the iceberg was coming.
