Chapter 2 - Man in Holes (2)

Just before I took a step inside, black fog started to come from upstairs, as if a spell had been cast over me, I stood there, my feet grounded, all the voices started to fade away as I watched mesmerized the fog coming my way from thin to gradually thick, when I thought it would keep going like this, a black lump of mass came tumbling out of it, I tried to recognize it and was horrified when I realized it was a cat but not really, because it was covered in holes completely and I could see through them the other side, but the strangest part was, it wasn't bleeding at all, even after having holes for eyes and whole body hollowed out like a sieve, it still kept mewoing and limping towards me, I felt cold all over, my heart started to race rapidly, my mind spinning rapidly, every cell of my being kept screaming at me to move but my body wouldn't listen, just when I felt desperate as it was only 3 feet away, suddenly people in the party started screaming and tumbling out of there, pushing and shoving each other without any image as they desperately ran out of there to the entrance where I was standing, at this time, a boy that I didn't recognize or even have time to see clearly came gasping while jumping two or three steps at a time from upstairs where fog had thickened to the point where even one's own fingers couldn't be seen, he shoved me on shoulders while shouting hysterically, "RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!"

The moment he knocked me, it was like a switch had been turned, I could finally move again, without caring for anything and looking back for the cat, I ran desperately out in the open where the night has just came full of clouds and no stars to be seen, shrouding the world in the darkness, I would very much like to stay for a few moments and enjoy this scene at other times but not now, as I desperately ran back to my family and get the hell out of here, what I didn't realize was that except for a few who came before me, none came later and an eerie silence filled that area..

All this happened in just a few minutes which felt like years to me, I squeezed into the car, onto my grandpa's lap full of security and reassurance, desperately asked them to get the hell out of here which they obliged after seeing my ghostly complexion, kept trying to sooth me and ask what happened, I felt much better with them around but now wasn't the time to answer, I just desperately wanted to get out of here, as my dad drove back, I got a glimpse of someone coming out of the fog that had started to spread out in open, whom I still clearly remember to this day
