CHAPTER DESCRIPTION: WAR CRY. AND THE EARS OF SETH.
A teenager can be seen crawling on the ground blood allover his body ."Helllo there , you might be wondering who is this scrawny teen crawling for dear life but well unfortunately that's me , but to get a grasp of what is happening I have to take you a month back."The boy narrates.
"Through reality there is one aspect that can never be altered by man and that is death but what if living was death well, or rather in my prospective worse than death ,then welcome to my world."The boy narrates.
My name is Allen Flydrod a nineteen year old orphan overstaying my welcome at the orphanage by the time my journey started and this is my story . The world was stained and painted with sin when the great diaster happened . If I remember correctly it was on Monday in the month and year of December 2032 when it happened .
December was always known as the month of love , reunions and happiness but this time it was the start of suffering.
Most religions up to date had held information about the day but no body took it to heart until it finally happened. THE JUDGEMENT DAY.
________________________________________
It started out with all satellites losing signal and power out of the blue due to an unknown energy breaking the circuits leading to a lot of commotion among the intercontinental world authorities who started speculating that the other different countries were starting a new world war through destroying the means of communication to block all ways of preparing them selves. Aeroplanes fell to the ground , cars caused accidents just know it was chaos allover the world .
Through out the world the air became chilly and windy as if it was in the winter season it did not spare even most parts of Africa which did not experience winter .Sure it was a momentarily relief for desert countries but not for long.
The countless questions from the people increased until an ear piercing roar or more of a cry was heard throughout the whole world it carried a lot of anger and depression but nothing could compare to the pain it was promising .
The voice : "Beware ! Beware! It is coming. AhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhAhhhhhhhhh. What first seemed as a cry turned into a maniac laugh."
"The voice :AhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhAhhhhhhhhh hahahahaha ."
Immediately after the roar or cry whatever you want to call it but later on it would be called the war cry . The great river euphrates started drying up leaving only a dark fog .
Red and black runes started surrounding the depth of the lake until they all gathered around to make a circle with three pointed edges .This happened for more than a day until it completely dried.
Slowly an arm appeared through it and started crawling out of the river until the whole form of whatever was crawling came out .
It had snow white skin ,edged teeth dripping with a dark fluid .red blood eyes surrounded by a dark aura promising death , ragged clothes with broken armour , three black crow wings and a broken wing appendage .It started flapping its wings to arise from the base of the lake.
It raised up in the sky using it's wings until it was around fifteen kilometers high then it said :"Ariseeeeee brothers, for thy time has come."
Slowly three more came out of the depth of the river through the runes all of them having almost identitical body structures except their faces . Together they made the fallen.
They moved and made a circle then they started drawing some certain symbols on their stomachs using their razor sharp nails with dark blood flowing through the newly made wounds but as this was going on the sky was darkening and wind was picking up it's pace rapidly. You might wonder how I know all this but you will soon find out.
Back to the fallen , just as they had finished drawing the symbols dark red light started shining from the wounds ,the blood which had dropped to the earth from the fallen created a small pond of blood and it started levitating until it was in the middle of the circle formation the fallen had made.
Slowly the blood started spreading out forming it self in to the exact structure and pattern as the symbols on the stomachs of the fallen . Slowly more blood spilled out of the fallen from all the body spores still maintaining the same pattern as the symbols the fallen started spreading out until they were fifty kilometers away from each other . The blood continued spreading out in order to occupy the space left by the fallen .As their ritual looked to be in the finishing touches with all the unnatural amount of blood they lost , it was a miracle they weren't flat out dead from blood loss .
ELSEWHERE : MAIN CHARACTER'S POSITION
POV: ALLEN FLYDROD. ( main character)
My name was Allen Flydrod , a deaf orphan by the time my journey stared . I couldn't believe my eyes or rather my ears when it started , I was walking around the orphanage using the matron's phone searching the internet for a school project when out of nowhere the phone powered down I tried tasting the battery using the little physics I knew to try and see if the battery had a problem because I remembered charging it before leaving but this was becoming frustrating so I proceeded to go back to the orphanage .
I experienced something I once took as imaginary , a miracle but in this case a curse or both .I heard , but it wasnt one of those faint sounds I dreamt of hearing but a scream so loud it shook my whole body , my first instinct was to close my now bleeding ears but then at the corner of my eyes I saw two of the other kids who were playing outside kneeling down , crying while clutching their ears .
That's when I knew this wasn't just affecting me , instinct kicked in and I bolted towards the kids ingnoring the absurb pain in my ears. I picked up both the kids on to my shoulders and ran towards the orphanage but just as we were about to enter, one of the nearby walls shattered and exploded sending off razor sharp glass everywhere , using my body I blocked the shards i could and threw the kids inside hoping they could withstand the harsh landing .
I covered my face with my now tattered jacket to try to protect it from the shards and also jumped inside only to find a power outage inside too . Not like it mattered at that moment since the moment the adrenaline ran out , I fainted due to excessive pain and energy loss .
The moment I blacked out I started hearing crashing and unpleasant sounds with a soothing voice in the background trying to calm the crying voices .
A FEW HOURS LATER .
The matron said: "This must be one of the government tricks on us ." She tried to joke to enlighten the mood around the kids then she stated telling them a bed time story to calm their nerves which was difficult considering the shivering and coldness.
The matron: " Susie, where are the blankets ?" She called out to the other matron .
The now named matron susie : Am coming . The boys are helping me carry them , these old bones can't do much. But is Allen awake, now?" She joked and inquired softly to make all the stress more bearable .
The coldness hit my skin and I was jolted awake but the moment I tried moving I could feel multiple cuts allover my skin covered in bandages , even my ears had ear plugs to prevent me forcibly going through that again.
I would have believed that I could actually now hear but I was picking up muffled sounds despite the plugs .
My continous caught movement caught the attention of matron Bella who was telling the kids a bedtime story goldilocks specifically if my lip reading skills were up to date .
Matron Bella- Are u okay - she inquired through sign language . (-- for sign language)
-I think am okay .- I replied with a small smile .
" But I think I can now ...." I voiced out mid way not being able to belive my own words .
Matron Bella : " hear ." She finished my sentence with an overjoyed smile .
Matron Bella : " But for now let's not test it since the moment we found at the front door , your ears were bleeding ."
I was kinda disappointed and discouraged by her words but but her reassuring smile made everything better .
"When do you think is the power coming back?" I asked trying to divert the topic .
Matron Bella:" Am not sure but it shouldn't be too long ." She replied unsurely.
As I waited for the power to come back I got a coat and despite my injures , I went outside to look at the stars but just as I put my foot outside I was assaulted by skin piercing coldness , I immediately went inside but nothing could stop the cold weather in spite of the blankets or jackets we used.
It became so cold in the orphanage that we had to huddle up to get more warmth . I and the other adult orphans started calming the kids while the matrons tried to start the fireplace.
Just as I started getting a little warmth I remembered the disterbing piercing voice or rather scream and how every inch of my being was screaming with fear but i got the guts to put that at the back of my mind and try to quiet down the kids but it was kind of unfruitful but the elder females and matrons were able to accomplish it adding to the irony of the situation.
The coldness stopped increasing but it was still unpleasant leaving all of us shaken up even our old matrons. Threating our candles and the fireplace to blew out and our Solar lights hardly worked leaving as with only the flames and five torches as the remaining options .
ELSEWHERE :THE FALLEN.
POV: NARRATOR.
Slowly the blood started feeling the gap . Just as the gap was being fully filled The fallen let out a cry saying : May death fill our destination.
Suddenly something massive fell out of the blood runes leaving a trace of smoke as it fell.
