Chapter 2 - Day 1 -The Tragedy

Hi I'm Hilmariuos, I am a 16 year old american high school student. I am a African-american. My stature is about 5'6, and I have long twists on the back of my head. I would say I am a little more defined than your average person. I mostly like to keep to myself, but I do have a few friends. I am freshly out of the foster system as my grandfather got me back after what feels like centuries. At least that is before The Tragedy.

October 21, 2030, or in other words, 6 months ago. I remember it like yesterday, the day when everything went to literal hell.

The day started like normal, woke up at the crack a dawn, and i mean the sun wasn't even up yet, got dressed, ran a few miles, and started walking to school(not before taking a shower of course). My school starts at 7:15 so I usually like walking to school with my friend Charles Belington.

Charles was another dark skinned boy that I met in middle school. Me and Charles are so close I would go so far as to call him my brother. Charles helped me get through some tough times while I was in the system... Lets just say the stuff that happened wasn't pretty. I would do anything for that man, just like he'd do anything for me. Charles was about 5'11 with black silky hair. You would never see his hair though because no matter how much I asked, he never took the durag off.

We arrive at school at about 7:00, a perfect amount of time for us to head to class. As we walk to class, a light skinned in female around our age walks past us with a look of disgust on her face. That's the jackass I was talking about earlier. Her names Jonslynne.

Jonslynne was 5'8, long silky smooth black hair, with hazel brown eyes. She was wearing some ripped blue jeans, a crop top and some air force ones.... How her shoe game rivals mine, I have no idea. Jonslynne was always kind and considerate to everyone she came across... Except me... Y'know maybe this is your typical - ow hey stop Jonslynne I was kidding.

Anyway as she walks by Charles gives me an amused look "look bro she's RIGHT THERE why don't you ask her out?" Did I mention I had a crush on her at this point? No? To bad I'm not illaborating because the woman is standing right next to me.

I look over at Charles and roll my eyes "she hates me, what am I to do? And don't give me the worst she can do is no, I have seen that woman crucify people that asked her out."

Charles frowns "u only live once man. And if u get crucified u can be a baby and cry on my shoulder" Charles then gives me a masterful smirk.

I roll my eyes "yeah yeah whatever, I'll ask her after school." I in fact don't ask her after school. I was to busy killing off monsters to survive.

Charles chuckles and pats my back " whatever man"

I laugh with him as something catches my attention. In the corner of my eye I saw a dark illegible figure, the figure was taller than me(I hate being short) and and kind of majestic for some reason. And I know your asking, "How can a dark figure look majestic," and my answer to that is, that's the same question that I was asking in that very moment I couldn't tell whether the figure was a man or a woman, it also seemed as if I was the only one that saw it. This figure was radiating power I could barely move. I then met the creatures eyes.

"Fiuen" I heard a whisper but not out loud. Somehow the whisper was in my head, but not at the same time. I look around to see time had stopped I look back where the figure was and it was right in front of me.

Now look, at 5'6 I was used to people towering over me so it wasn't easy to make me feel intimidated. BUT THIS GUY WAS ALMOST DOUBLE MY SIZE!

"Fiuen" I hear again a bit louder from the first time.

"Fiuen" I heard again. I kept hearing it the same word getting louder

"FIUEN" this time was enough, I screamed trying to drown it out to no avail for what I was about to hear next is so gutrenching so traumatic I'm shivering just thinking about it.

"FRIUEN" I heard, not a plead do help, nor a scream of agony, it was a scream of pure hate so loud that it felt like my eardrums was gonna burst. The scream so inhumane, so cruel, so unearthly it had me at my knees covering my ears tryin to hide from the sound.

Then the black figure smiled warmly and spoke, it's voice angelic, beautiful, majestic. This was the voice of a angel- no a goddess. "You shall be mine."

I was then swept with a huge amount of light swarming my body, it felt so peaceful so upbringing, I smiled as the feeling of warmth surrounded me.

Another voice that was the exact opposite of the first spoke. A deep and loud, but scratchy and screeching voice spoke "I can't let you do that sister, I must intervene" with that the golden power that gave me warmth and a cozy feeling started fighting with a power of purple that made my body quiver forcing me almost out of consciousness.

"BROTHER ARE U TRYING TO KILL THE BOY?"

He smiled wickedly "he'll live it'll just be very, very painful." The last thing I heard was a laugh of pure malice as I lost my consciousness

It felt like I was drowning. Drowning in an endless pit of blackness. The blackness thick and bubbly pulling me in , making me fall further down with no chance of resistance. This black pit suffocating all my thoughts slowly driving me insane. This black pit driving my consciousness to the brink of no return. I then open my eyes.

When I open my eyes I'm still walking next to Charles as if nothing happened. I look around and everyone is minding themselves like it was a normal day. Why? How can they act like those screams wasn't just happening? Who where those people? What was that light? What's happening?

All those questions run through my mind the entire day to the point I couldn't even focus on my classes. Usually I like participating in class. I am usually focused, but today was different. Today was just me walking around in a daze. Confused as to what I had went through that morning. It was fourth period. Fourth period everyone heard it.

What we heard was not of our tongue. It confused everyone. Us all looking around trying to make sure nobody was hearing things. Then we heard it again

"£¥€ §¥¢" a loud bang shortly followed crashing half of the ceiling crushing the teacher and all students from that side of the room.

Screaming.

Panic.

Fear.

All different emotions running through everyone as we all ran trying to escape. Personally I found myself running next to Jonslynne. I promise this was a coincidence. -Jonslynne don't hit me- As we run the ceiling collapse behind use spluttering gut wrenching red behind us. the scene of pure red hearts exploding out of peoples bodies from the impact of the ceiling.

BOOM. A creature of huge stature crashed in next to us sending Jonslynne into a wall knocking her out. He missed me so I was still running until I looked back. I say this huge greasy sticky figure slowly marks it's way towards Jonslynne with its mouth wide ready to make it's move. I look around debating whether or not I should help her. Yeah I definitely do help but that's because I'm a kind person, definitely not because of any ulterior motives I had, like hoping for hugs in return...

I ran towards this beast and jump on its back(most disgusting feeling ever) the creature felt gooey and slimy. But it was also bumpy and hairy. The feeling of this thing was disgusting. As soon as I got a good grip on the thing it flipped me over forcing me to land right on my back. I cough up blood and dodge as it tries to slam it's body weight onto me(which probably would have killed me) I get up and rush towards it punching it. The punch was so hard shockwaves filled the entire school breaking glass and speeding the collapse. The monster then went flying as it hit the wall crumbling into ash.

Now i know for a fact that i was never that strong. That punch somehow sent that... that thing flying. I stared at my fists confused for a second before turning to Jonslynne noticing her regain consciousness. 

"Can you walk?" I asked.

"No I can't feel my legs" she said her voice strained.

Smiled awkwardly "um do you want me to carry you out of here?" I asked

She looks at me disgustingly "no I'll wai-" a piece of the ceiling falls next to her almost crushing her "f-fine but this means nothing okay?"

I nod as I pick her up and start carrying her out of the building running as fast as I can. What's going on. I thought to myself, what was that... that thing. And since when does Jonslynne actually talk to me like I'm a normal human. I sigh thinking that the worst was over, seeing the exit. Boy was I wrong.
