View More-EMILY- He wasn’t there no more. It seemed to have been an illusionof some sort but then I couldn’t be dreaming with my eyes opened. The mysteriouscreatures had somehow been petrified, their eyes lingering all over me as Iwatched them sway like plants in the autumn. “Run! Run!” My head kept screaming, the pressure pumps fromthe air drawing my heart into a stringent race. The car stood there, blood onthe windscreen. I jerked myself off the floor, running back to the car.They weren’t coming after me, but their eerie gazes weren’t still able toavert. I had to get out of here. With a shrug, I pulled the back door open, Mom’s headfalling into my arms. She wasn’t hurt in the head but her hand had been cutopen. I tugged on my T-shirt, ripping it into a mediocre-sized bandage, tyingher hands down to help stop the blood.“Mom!” I tapped her, but she didn’t answer. She was stillbreathing, the sound of her thumping heart penetrating my ears. As I held her, I could feel the way
-EMILY- The sound of the beeping monitor next to me got my eyesrolling, the blurry image of the ceiling looking down on me. I took a sittingposition, resting my back on the soft pillow behind me. The scent ofantiseptics and the cream-colored walls gave a pretty first impression of whereI was. A lady In a white uniform walked in. She didn’t speak, nordid she let out a smile when she saw me. I couldn’t remember how I got here orwhy I was here, but I was sure she knew the answers. “Miss…” I paused as she tilted her head. A deadly glarecould be seen on her face as she observed every inch of my body down to mylimbs. “What are you?” She asked, clenching her fist as she triednot to grab my clothing. I didn’t speak; there was no reasonable response toher question. She flushed, grabbing a pack of syringes from the drawernext to me. She hesitated, staring at a bottle of medicine that I believedpossessed a great threat to my system. A smile danced on her lips as theinjection pi
-EMILY- It had barely been an hour since the horrible creature hadattacked the neighborhood. The scent of blood still lingered in the air as Ipassed the attacked home. They all looked horrified as the children of the deceasedcrawled out of the building with blood all over them. I could barely whispertheir names as they crumbled to the floor, their bones broken and their headsheld high. “Sister Emily…” Momo, the young boy scout, let out a gaspas he crawled out of a block. I tossed my bag away, shunning every single adultthat was preventing the masses from getting past the red tapes.“Don’t go there. The monster is within them.” Timothy, thehead of the neighborhood, yelled. I would have gone back, but I just couldn’t avoid the eyesof the one boy who I treated as my younger brother. He had always found his wayto my house whenever his drunken mother had broken bottles on his eldersiblings. His father? I recall him screaming in the middle of thenight that he was going to b
-EMILY- The screeching sound of the newspaper vendor’s old bicyclemade me curl up from the bed, walking out with my pajamas to meet him. My father had made it an obligation for me to pick up thenewspaper from the vendor. Though he could read the papers through hiselectronic mail or on several magazines websites, he still concluded on it. Ihad seen this as a waste of silver pennies, which could accumulate intosomething better over the years, but his response each time made me wonder iftruly it was worth it. “Good morning, Mr. Hazel.” I said as I walked out of thehouse. “Good morning, Emily,” he chuckled. I could see hiscurled-up mustache taking several shapes as he sang his morning devotions. Ialways thought of him as a blissful Christian under Father Timothy’s sacrilege,but then he never showed up to the church, let alone passed before it. “Today’s Newspapers.” He opened the black bag behind him, aleather-coated bag strong enough to stop the flow of oxygen in it.

-EMILY- It felt like it had come to an end. The old hook drawn to asharp brazen oil now set ablaze. I had always felt like that, my soul churningto the stupefied melodies my heart had made. My mind was always racing when he arrived, his black wavyhair bending the room to its will, his ferocious stare making me weak in theknee, and his well-chiseled chin bottling up every single punishment he was toserve. He was the king of the hallways, the one behind everygirl's dream and the high school jockey every lady fell for. Believe me, I knowbetter than to just glare at him all day. I could remember walking towards him that night after hehad lost the big game against the Los Angeles Eagles. Not like I cared aboutsport; I just had to watch because of the way he flaunted his shoulders when hetook a goal from the opposition. Truly amazing. I had consoled him that night, made him feel wanted, unlikethe other girls who threw their bodies at him, wishing for intimacy. He hadcurled
