[ WP ] The `` cracks '' on the surface of Jupiter 's frozen moon Europa are found to be not cracks at all but tentacles of a giant creature frozen beneath the surface .

`` Listen up'' Dougs begins. `` This is probably the most important mission you will ever go on during your time with NASA. I hope you are all ready for what comes next. As you may already know Jupiter's moon Europa has a dark secret. Approximately three hours ago we learned about the existence of the S.H.E.T. It is a historical creature that dates back to who knows how long. What we thought were cracks in the moon's surface are actually gigantic tentacles. What you probably do n't know is that the ice is melting and the creature is starting to stir. Our mission is to travel to the moon and to observe its movements in the coming weeks. Any questions?'' 
 
 The room remains silent. At last one man raises their hand. `` Yes Robinson?'' `` Well why in the hell are we going? We are just scientists, nerds that understand rocks, computers, and chemistry. We know absolutely nothing about `` Giant space creatures'', especially what if something was to happen during the research?'' `` Well'', senior analyst Dougs begins `` We are the best minds to really see what this creature is like. Also that is why we have these gentlemen.'' 
 
 In walks ten men and women of all different races. They line up against the side wall to wait for their introduction. `` These are the best soldiers that were handpicked for just this mission. They will be accompanying you on your journey to make sure nothing happens to you, or best and brightest. Okay we will see you all early in the morning for departure.'' Dougs finishes. 
 
 As the group gets ready to leave and head to their bunks for their final luggage checks a young woman runs into the room. `` Sir you have to see this'' she exasperates while turning on the television. 
 
 ``... eature has just been discovered on the moon's surface. No word has been heard on what it is or where it came from. Specialists discuss its possible origins later in the broadcast. We will be right back, do n't go anywhere.'' The tv dies and Dougs places the remote back on the table. `` Fuck, who let this get out? Okay team we have to move quickly so we can get the real answers before the doomsayers cause a panic. Lets not fuck this up anymore than we already have.''

 `` Alrighty gentleman and women ready to go?'' Dougs asks. The scientists and soldiers march on to the ship getting ready for a once in a lifetime event. The crew is silent and somber as the ship lifts off and begins their journey to Europa and the mysterious creature.

 `` Good morning crew, I have our next set of orders straight from NASA HQ. We are planning on orbiting the moon for the next few weeks to analyze the creature from afar and to get our data from up here. After that we will attempt to land on Europa to acquire some concrete data right from the source. That is our plan for now and if you have any questions feel free to ask me.'' Dougs smiles and leaves the conference room to attend to other matters. The rest of the crew slowly get up to move on to their other tasks. As they are leaving the ship shakes violently throwing all of them to the ground. Robinson gets up and runs to the window and raises the shutter to see what is happening. 
 
 It is then that they had realized their mistake. The ice had already melted from around the moon who knows when, and what they were looking at was the creature itself. The mysterious creature was not frozen as they originally thought but instead that was its camouflage. As Robinson looks out the window dumbfounded the creature lashes out with one of its tentacles and wraps around the ship yanking it towards its massive body. The last thing any of the crew members see is the emerging eye of the creature as it swallows them down. Its eye is as black as the space around it with a small blazing ball of yellow in the middle.

 `` Breaking news today, the story we have been reporting on all week has been proven to be false. The hoax was started by a sci-fi group that wanted to recreate another war of the worlds type scare. Sorry for any problems this hoax may have caused. In other news a test flight by NASA was deemed a failure when the ship exploded after a test flight went wrong. Thi...'' 
 
 `` Okay the news programs have started to report that the story was false and they have started to report our story about the fake explosion, no one needs to know what really happened to Apollo 18.'' Charles Bolden, head of NASA states. Bolden gets up and heads into a separate room at the end of the hall and sits down behind his desk. He lets out a deep breath when a deep voice echos in his head. `` Good job now we must begin our next step'' Cthulu whispers from over 500 million miles away. Bolden smiles wide and stares into the darkness with his pitch black eyes. `` Step two will begin now...''
