“ Mr. Matthew!!” the leader of the search party called through the phone.
“ Yes, what is it?” Mr. Mathew answered,
“ The_the river! I don't know what the hell is going on?” His shaky voice answered as if he had seen a ghost.
“ Did you find the boy?” He asked, uninterested in what he is worried about.
“ There's black sand man! It's as if it's pouring out of the land… And it's moving around in an arc or something. “
Mr. Matthew sighed and cut off the phone, his face remaining expressionless. He puts his feet on the desk and used a hanky to clean the sunglasses on his face.
The search party watched the eerie phenomenon happening right in front of them in the dawn of morning.
Fishes in the river either ran mad or fade into nothingness. Dark Matter made them go on a rampage, attacking even their predators.
A particular tuna with black shot eyes furiously approached a great white shark. The predator,

“ Dolly!” “Dolly!!” “ Wake up! Sleepyhead.” Chesa called, shaking her vigorously, but she wouldn't budge. “Beshy!! Wake the heck up.” “ Chesa! What is it?” Dolly finally replied, rolling to her side and looking at her sleepily. “ It's time to go. You're causing me a lot of suspense, and it's choking me.” “Wha_what?” She exclaimed and picked up her phone. “ It's only 5'. Chesa! Go back to sleep and wake me up by 8:00.” “ Our flight leaves by 6, we will miss it if you don't get the heck up!” Chesa moaned and kept shaking her. “ But I only just started sleeping.” “ You can sleep all you want on the plane.” “ Okay! OKAY! Stop shaking me, or else I'll puke.” Dolly said, and dragged herself up, still on her phone. “ Gimme that,” Chesa said, suddenly snatching it. “ CHESA!! Give it back!

A few minutes later, the best friends were on the unrestricted side of the river, splashing water on themselves, swimming about, and playing around the river. Later that afternoon, having exhausted their energy, the girls sat by the stairs at the riverbank, basking in the quiet serenity. “ Uh! Chesa, I almost forgot about your family, where are they?” Dolly asked. She had thought that they were traveling with her parents, but didn’t care to ask about their whereabouts till then. “Huh, you’re asking that right now?” Chesa asked, the smile suddenly disappearing from her face. “ Yeah! It skipped my mind.” “ Umm… Well…” Chesa stammered, “that was what I wanted to tell you in the taxi” “Chesa?!” Dolly exclaimed with a sinking feeling in her stomach. What incredibly stupid thing did Chesa do this time? “ It’s just us. They are not aware that we’re here.” Chesa said, flicking an imaginary speck of her arm as she stared out into the river. “ WHAT!!!!!!!” Dolly exclaimed, not wanting to

Halfway to the hotel, Dolly asked. “Oh my God, Chesa! I did give you my luggage, right? “Relax, I’ve got it.” Chesa answered, hands cupped under her chin seemingly deep in thought. " Thank God!" Dolly replied Onwards, the boat rode the gentle waves of the river, eventually exiting it through a tributary and beaching on the shore of an islet. By then the weather had gotten rather gloomy, as the skies became overcast and the waves broke on the riverbank. " What did that old man tell you?" Dolly asked as they got out of the boat with their luggage. " It's nothing," Chesa shrugged. They hurried through the concrete path surrounded by a lush garden to the main hotel complex. Approaching the receptionist, they were asked to show their booking confirmations. " We bought it online. But I'm not with my phone here." Chesa explained. " That's not a problem," the receptionist replied, with a smile. " Could you tell me the e-mail account you used?" She continued, typing something on th

Her heart pounded as if it wanted to explode out of her chest.“ Hi, good morning cuz,” Kent greeted, standing by the doorpost with a kind smile on his face.Althea gingerly lifted her head and stared at him quizzically.“ Wha….what are you doing here? ” Her weak voice asked shakily.“ Well, I just wanted to give my favorite cousin her breakfast in bed. It’s your favorite,” he said and sat beside her, showing her the beautifully made dish lying on a glass plate, her favorite, beef tapa.Not quite the answer she expected, Althea thought. But she was too drained to try and probe further. Sitting up, she hugged a pillow to her chest, and docilely allowed Kent to feed her.“ Aw… You should see how cute your fac

The Mayor puffed heavily as he ran frantically into his home. Inside, the house was a complete mess showing all the tell-tale signs of a struggle. Around the living room, utensils from the kitchen was scattered. A knife with fresh blood that seemed to drip from its evil blade lay ominously in the center of one table.“ Maria!! Maria!!!” he called his wife in a great panic as he climbed the stairs, racing towards her room.Everywhere he looked, all he could see was blood and death. What looked like arterial spray covered the walls like a psychotic Jackson Pollack painting. Puddles of sticky red blood pooled around the bodies of his maids whose necks had been slashed indiscriminately.His cold, clammy hands shook as he gingerly walked towards the room’s door, blood splashing on his trousers.“ Ma…ria?” he called again, struggling to keep his glasses on his shivering sweaty face as he turned the door’s handle and slowly pushed it open. He hurriedly locks it while turning slowly fearing th

In and out, her breathing got heavier and more labored.As the greenery denser, Chesa could feel her eyes strain to see the path, yet step by frantic step, she pushed onward, the screams of the attacked and dying seeming to come closer and closer.

" 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.

Now we can have an amazing time with all our friends here." Liam smiles. “ But Liam... ” Mike pauses, wearing a worried look on his face. “ Yeah? ” “ Do you sometimes feel that the plan is going too well?” “ Huh? ”Liam pales, his brow furrowing deeper. “ Like when what you worked so hard for is finally paying off, but then you feel a tight knot in your stomach that something is about to go terribly wrong? ” “ What? ” Liam eyes grew wide open.

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. The memory still haunts her, and she wishes she had spoken up, but who really would believe such nonsense? So she tried her best to swallow it up, convincing herself that it was just a nightmare. But the suit. **Clothes don't just disappear after a few days of removing it does it?** she asks herself, grasping the chair's arm as she allows those memories back into her mind.

“ 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.
