"I'll Kill You Tomorrow" by Helen Huber is a science fiction short story written in the early 1950s. The narrative revolves around a disturbing scenario in a maternity ward, where an unsuspecting nurse encounters malevolent, parasitic entities that seek to inhabit the bodies of newborns, turning them into potential assassins. The story explores themes of life, death, and the nature of evil through a haunting lens where innocence becomes a façade for darkness. The plot follows Lorry Kane, a registered nurse, who becomes alarmed by the eerie silence in the nursery filled with sleeping babies. Upon investigation, she discovers that these infants are possessed by otherworldly entities that plan to grow within them, eventually leading to their violent potential as adults. With the help of her partner, Dr. Peter Larchmont, Lorry confronts the terrifying reality of the situation. In a desperate attempt to save the babies and the world from the threats posed by these entities, Peter performs a risky medical procedure to eradicate the spirits within them. The story concludes on a somber note as they grapple with the ethical implications of their actions and the lingering uncertainty of the future, suggesting a haunting cycle of potential evil.
