August, 9th 2039; At approximately 5 am, 7 inexplicable earthquakes occurred on each continent, though felt by none seismographs had recorded them. At the time nothing was strange, just another routine earthquake not even breaking past 2.5 in magnitude.
August, 10th; the day after all news stations were reporting on how Communications with the Luna and Mars colonies had ceased, with drones being sent to assess the situation later it was reported that after exiting the exosphere around Earth contact was lost with the AI controlling the drone. After the first failure it was decided that a manned team will fly up to Luna to document the reason for the lost contact with both the drone and colonies and secondly to resolve said issues if possible.
"Auge...." I started to pen before the journal was swiped from my hand.
"What you writing there bud?" My father asks reading the entries.
"I was.... I was, what was I writing I, I don't know?" The more I try to remember the heavier the headache hits me.
Dad hands my journal back before reminding me not to stay up too late.
I start to write again gradually falling into a trance like state…
Entry one: towers grew from the ground all originating from the center of the earthquakes, I was there. I remember it clearly Dad took me shopping for school supplies. The whole shopping center split in two then split again anything within that radius was swallowed whole, by what I don't know but soon after a tower grew from the abyss left by the impact. Dad took my hand and hurried me away from the center, our car was swallowed so we were forced to run on foot.
It… it was so sudden… a burst of blood a terrifying med expression and suddenly I'm bleeding out on the ground. I don't know why I felt compelled to pen this but I have.
