Leaving the auditorium, I head towards the botanical gardens. But once I am there, my breath is taken away and I feel my heart drop into my stomach. All the plants and flowers have wilted, some are still wilting, and look as if a coat of gray paint is covering all of them. Even the sky is gray. So different from how it looked only an hour and a half ago. A rumbling feeling overwhelms my chest, and just in the blink of an eye there is a black shadow in front of me. Black shadow wings emerge from the figure and lunge at me while making a growl.
