"No one knows how it happened, or why. But one day, the kids saw it in their eyes. The adults... they just broke, anyone over eighteen just seemed to stop thinking rationally. They just snapped, lunging at all that moved. A lot of kids were scared, didn't know what had happened and just ran. Ran from the crazed blood lust look in their siblings and parents eyes. There was no human, no love. They destroyed it all, each other, and the kids. Humanity hardened that day, as the old protected the young, the infants, the children. They started to fight their way into a new life, crawling over the fallen to avenge them by surviving. But then, a new terror struck the young ones. Because as their protectors turned from seventeen to eighteen, they too, went mad. It seemed the best people had no limits, no hunger, no fear, no regret. The eldest cried as they turned, 'Run, run, and never see open the hearts of war we now yield.' And so they fled, and humanity was never whole. There became packs of children, learning from the remnants of what once was, surviving and praying to whoever may be above, that it stops. It never did. And that, Michael, is why I can stay no longer. I must keep you safe so you may live where I have died."
A lot of these were done on prompts or just out of boredom late at night, Anyways.
