“ Wha_ who are?” Bayani takes an intent look at the Mayor ** Does he honestly have no idea up till now** he thinks perplexed, then replies; “ A whole lot of horrors sir!” As the bewildered Mayor asks his numerous questions, Bayani turns to ready his gear and himself. **“ The unfavorable memory of what he just witnessed buried itself into his brain. Even though he wished to stop remembering it, flashes of the event still appeared now and then. The moment he was driving through town to aid the distressed officer everywhere looked like a deserted wasteland. Moments at intervals, he could hear eerie screeching all around him. ** So it wasn't just a rumor?** he wonders. After the meeting of the Mayor and the fishermen of the community, it was decided that they would send the very best among the fishermen to try to hunt down whatever thing that was making the fishes disappear that quickly. With the disappearance of the Mayor's daughter Tala around that area, Bayani had sent three

May I come in?” She asks. _________ Reaching the ground, Nathan held the handle of the store's door, and fortunately, it wasn't locked. Dashing inside, he scans through the semi-dark area “ Yes!” He exclaims upon seeing a rope by the side of the room. On raising it off the floor, he sees that it was actually heavier and longer than he previously thought. ** The plan might work!** he thought, but it would be definitely difficult for him to climb up to the roof of the three-story with this extra burden. He was an expert on climbing up trees, not walls. ** What was I thinking?** he wonders and walks out of the store and looks

Bayani's fingers shivered a little, he shouldn't have let her in in the first place, she was no longer human. **But how is she not running wild and attacking us right away!?** His thoughts had no answer, but he was sure that if she so much as raised her ankle a bit, he would certainly shoot her. “ Dad?” Althea suddenly calls the intensely shocked Mayor who took a few steps back behind Bayani. ** SHE CAN TALK!?** Bayani's mind cried. “ Y_yes dear?” The Mayor finally replies, there's no way this could be his child, but why does her voice sound like her? ** I must be asleep. This cannot be real!** Thinks his bewildered mind. “ Why are the police here? Did something happen? Did anyone die?” she asks. ** What the hell? Her emotions are as dead as her eyes.

" Liam! What the heck is that? " Linda asks as she and the others; May and Stacry, run towards him in the middle of the field. “ A warning. ” Liam replies solemnly as he gazes at it, which happens to be the only cloud in the sky. It soon caught a lot of attention from the students as some point at it, others running out of their lodges to catch a glimpse of the mysterious symbol very slowly swirling in the distance. “ What's the possibility that that is just a natural rare cloud formation phenomenon and nothing for us to worry about? ” Stacey asks nervously. “ I really hope so. ” Liam replies. ** Or probably less than 24 hours. ** The thought crossed his mind. “ And if it's not? ” May asks. “ Then we would have about three days to one week to escape. It all depends on Jason. ” Liam says, supporting himself on the soft grasses on the ground. “ We always knew that we did not have a lot of time left. But that, if it's what we think it is, is just a clear r

She screams out of fear but soon realizes it was just a dream. But how much of it was? Touching her face softly, She could vividly remember the cold feeling of the palm on her face, and that very day that sand seemed to sip out of her body onto the desk.

“ How's May doing? ” he help her out finally by asking. That gave her the boost she needed. She was doing this for her best friend. Her one and only friend that this moron hurt so deeply. “ She's furious with you! ” she snapped. Her eyes locked on to his renewed boldness it lacked before. The cool-headed Liam was stunned at the sudden change of emotion. Those green eyes of hers were fixed on his, with no single sign of shyness he had ever seen in any girl's gaze before. “ She is, is she? ” he asks, forced to look away. “ You lunatic! You didn't think anyone would find out. She literally dated her rapist for years, don't you have any dignity left? ” She charged at him in anger. “ I'm sorry Stacey. But I'm still mourning his death, please let's do this sometime later. ” He replied calmly, wiping off droplets of tears from his eyes with the back of his hand. Stacey jolted with pity. She didn't think that he was burying all that hurt and regret in his hea

May wakes up the following day in her warm bed. She sat and rubbed her eyes while the sunlight bathed the room. After freshening up, she leaves. “ So you're saying that dark matter is an actual creature, that wants to destroy the whole world or something? ” Stacey asks when May concluded her story as they head to the dining. “ I dunno what is it it wants, but it just fills you with hate and revenge. Making you feel like that's the only thing in the world that you need. ” “ That's creepy!” she shivered. “ And he can control you too? ” She asks. At this point, Stacey was willing to believe her even if she mentions seeing walking-dead people. “ Yeah. But you still have a measure of control, it is your body. But, it would be very difficult. Imagine, we've given Jason so much reason to hate and want to get revenge on us that I doubt we have a week to plan our escape. ” May says they got to their table, their breakfast being served simultaneously. “ Geez, we sh

I can't control my body. ”** ** “ My sight turned on and off as my feet mechanically moved back to the camp.I've literally been fighting with every part of me. My body, my mind, my heart.I keep trying to find reasons not to get revenge but that was all I was filled with.I was bombarded with only the pain, the regret I felt. Rage overwhelmed me, and I had all the power to exert it.But the mayhem, the agony, I cannot bring them here too. ”**May fought, as flashbacks of all the horrors that happened in the Philippines bombarded her. The scarred faces, the screams, and the death that was spread, and in the middle of it stood the cause.

Jason returns to the newly found buried treasure ( the library ) immediately after the announcement not to leave the campgrounds made by Miss Claire. As he dives into one of the books there, he quickly realized how much he missed the gentle pounding of his heart due to excitement, and the growing suspense inside him in expectation of what he was about to dive into. But perhaps being possessed by a cold soulless creature isn't that bad after all. The thought came across his mind. It has its perks. He didn't feel sey or afraid, he had inhuman strength and he was almost indestructible. Wasn't he just shot in the head? But yet he was still alive. Even still, he didn't like losing almost all his emotions and killing innocent people. Damn! What happened to Mike? And what will happen if they find out about the people he killed? All these thoughts interrupted him from his reading as he looked forward absent-minded. _____ “ Wha... What do you mean you

Then his stomach growled. He felt like there was a battle going on. A smile drew across his face as he salivates in expectation since it has been a long since he tasted anything.Quickly, he headed over to the dining and positioned himself at the quietest table there. As usual, his food was served. An incredibly beautiful fried chicken begged him to eat it, along with rice. Of course, he couldn't reject its wish, so he ate it all a little bit too fast, not minding the souls around him. He kept on eating plate after plate even though his stomach begged him to stop. After almost finishing an elephant's share, he collapsed on his chair and had to rest there for an hour for his body to proceed with what the heck just happened.After that, he stood up and walked out of the dining hall.

Right after we take care of whatever the heck is waiting for us. ” She continued. “ Yippee!” Tink exclaimed. “ Just to be clear we're never coming back? ” April asks. “ No. ” Intel replies. “ Guys, I'll NEVER put you in this kind of dangerous situation ever again.
