It was just another day. Ky had just woken up from a nightmare. He had gotten used to it. It had already been a year since the nightmares began and he had still not found the reason behind them nor a way to stop them. There were no new messages on his phone, as usual. He wasn't anyone really popular or needed, he just hanged around people and that was it most of the time. He had some friends tho, he wasn't a loner. Ky got ready and headed out to school. He arrived to the station, got in the train and arrived at school on time. Just another usual day, just another guy. That's what he thought too. Who wouldn't?
Ky only wanted to go through his days. He had absolutely no plans for his future. He left his country and friends a year ago, and so his life as well. He made new friends, but nothing was like it was back home. He had accepted that, but he couldn't help feeling bored about everything. Everyone had a dream except him. Everyone had a goal except him. He never let the others see how he is under the smile he puts on in order to avoid worrying someone. He hated to have others worry about him. He always cared about others more than himself and would try to help them if he could. That was the reason he got involved on what would follow in the next years.
First period had just started and everyone was in their classes. Ky was going up the stairs, when a girl passed by him. He almost fell unconscious. Not because of her beauty. Not because she was an old friend of his. It was because of the aura she was emitting on the atmosphere. It felt like she was thirsty for blood, like she wanted to kill. Ky was able to notice her smiling to him before she ran off, but when he turned around to see where she was heading to, she was gone. He ran to the window to try and spot her outside, but it was pointless. She was gone just as fast as she appeared. Who was that girl though? And why did she have such a murderous intent? It was a matter of hours before he would see her, but their next encounter will be far more unpleasent.
Math class. Or rather, the students were supposed to be taught math at that period. Instead, they were just sitting around, roaming in the internet on their phones. Mat said that the night before, he took a video of something weird while he was outside. He showed it to Ky , but he didn't believe much of what the recording had to show him. He thought that his friend was trying to prank him. There were men in black suits and carrying guns in the video. They seemed to carry something inside a warehouse. Mat shows it to some of their classmates and they don't believe it either. He dared them all to go together and check that place out during the night. Some of them got scared and didn't agree to come. Others like Ky, who had nothing better to do, decided to go and check it out.
'Who knows? Maybe we will find some alien gang that wants to take over the world!', Sara said and laughed.
Mat changed a couple of colors due his anger since, naturally, no one believed him.
'Relax man. She is just teasing you. Come on, we will go together for alien hunt-' Ky said and looked at his friend, who started changing colors from his anger once again, 'I mean, check the warehouse out.'.
'You can joke about it as much as you like Ky, but I know what I saw last night! You will all see that it was tr-'. Natasha grabbed Mat from his ear and pulled it to the point of him begging for mercy.
'Alright, alright! We got it, alien hunter, we will come with you.' Natasha said with a grin on her face.
They decided to meet at a BurgerQueen, a fast food stand, near the warehouse at ten o'clock in the night. Who would have thought that, their jokes weren't that far from the truth?
The following hours passed pretty fast, but at the same time so slow, since everyone was looking forward to explore this mysterious warehouse that belonged to the men in the black suits. Thankfully, everyone was allowed to leave school two hours earlier than usual, because a teacher was sick and couldn't make it that day. Ky went back home as usual with the train, had lunch with his parents, studied a bit for the next day and got ready for the meeting. Moving unnoticed wasn't so hard, since most of his clothes were black or in dark colors. Once he was ready, he wore his ring, which for some reason gave him shivers down his spine, and headed towards the train station. From there, he got the train and headed to the meeting place. In some minutes everyone would be gathered up.
