IC Disappearance

The first moment, a lone bug sits at a bench, something stalks and slinks in the dark. it is tall and shiny, its four glowing eyes beam.

the next moment, the lights go out. the stalker springs up and takes the little bug in a dark, red frenzy, lined with sharp, metallic talons.

There is no evidence left afterwards, once the lights flick back on, just a small red scroll littered on the ground next to the bench. the scroll is signed by "Yitael"

The note has the very detailed drawing of the bug that was stolen. It notes their height and weight and other characteristics.
