Nestling Scarab
Pint sized pincers slowly crawl through pink canals. Centimeter by centimeter and inch by painfully slow inch they move throughout the tunnels. They carefully devour the smallest fraction as to not interfere. When full they burrow deeper within absorbing the meal. Energy converted they continue the journey throughout the victims body.
As they breed and multiply within the hosts body they slowly open up the passageways. Being careful to avoid detection they single file move throughout the muscle, skin and blood. When the timing is right they activate in a rush converting all of the stored energy into a fierce and desperate rush.
Veins push open as the swarm pours within. Ripping and tearing they reduce the host to a husk within seconds. A living, breathing time bomb.
