Mutant Ants
Mike Berger, PhD
Government experts assured us the storage
facility would be perfectly safe; the nuclear
waste site wants to be impervious to any
assault and impossible to leak.. Unfortunately,
the designers didn’t count on the tenacity of
little red ants. A colony burrowed into the site
and were exposed to massive doses of radiation.
They quickly mutated to the size of a Volkswagen
Bug.
They came out of their massive tunnels; knawing
and chewing. They ate everything in sight as they
moved relentlessly and with military precision. They
devoured anything organic.
Their tough hides and were impervious to
bullets; a few were cooked by a napalm drop.
Farms and factories succumbed. It appeared
that nothing could stop the giant ants.
One bright scientist had an epiphany; he saw
images of his younger days. He had a
construction company build a giant steel robot.
that was immune to the ants’ bites.
The robot stood in the sun and with a humongous
magnifying glass as he focused the sun rays and
he fried them one by one.
