This is my entry for @jayna's 50 word writing competition (usually run by @miniature-tiger). The prompt this week is bark.
The Hive
Chaos rained down on the whole parade. Movements distracted all around. Was it always like this? Roger wasn't sure, but he looked around, allowing the veterans to lead. Quickly they devoured, as only ants could. The hive mind working as it always had in this hidden world, underneath the bark.
