I was running away from an eight armed monsters with two legs,The monster basically breathing down my neck as I get stuck in a trap. I was stuck in a tree and surrounded by people with guns..

Wait you must be wondering how the hell did I end up in this awful god damn situation...Well it all started when the presidents all over the world died leaving no one in charge anymore...

I was watching the news eating a bowl of cereal. It was 6 in the morning and school started at 8 and I didn't live close so I had to wake up early. I got bored of the news and turned it off and started watching cartoons even though I'm in highschool, and I was old enough to do adult shit because it was my late year there. When 6:59 came I got up and put my bowl in the sink and grabbed my bag and left. I was walking to school and everything was pretty normal, Citizens we're either going to shop or walking around town looking for something or heading to work. I live in a neighborhood that is filled with teens my age and up and none of them know me. They don't try to get to know me they labeled me as "Weird". I got inside the school and went straight to my locker, Everyone was huddled around something but I wasn't trying to find out at all.

I got my stuff out my locker and I was trying to go to class but curiosity got the better of me..I walked over to see they were all watching the news, but it was a part of the news I didn't see.
"Reports say that all of the presidents all over the world just up and died. Hospitals are saying some died from old age and the rest is unknown..."
I was confused and very disturbed by that news report. I thought it was fake news or someone was playing a prank so I just ran to class and sat down like nothing ever happened.

My principal walked in and he looked rather nervous than stern and straight forward. "everyone...As you may know, our president is dead...And we don't have long before people know the danger of that..." I stared at the principal hoping he would say it's a prank or April fool's in January. I raised my hand because I wanted to ask a important question and my principal looked at me and nodded. "If all of the worlds presidents are dead...than who is stopping people from doing crimes? If there's no one tell police what to do..." My principal looked at me unable to answer my question as I swallowed hard knowing that shit was really going to hit the fan.

"So... what's stopping me from leaving right now..?" My principal looked at me in disbelief. "why would you leave?.." I looked at him scared "For my safety.." I got up and ran out the school running home as I watch chaos unfold, robberies, murder, Arson, pure destruction. I wished this was all a dream but it feels like a fucking nightmare that's just started.

I ran to my house and I looked inside and saw my mom I banged on the door in a panic, "MOM! MOM! OPEN THE DOOR PLEASE!!! I LEFT MY KEY INSIDE!! MOMM!!!" It was like my mom was ignoring me or wasn't trying to hear me at all. So the only reasonable thing I could do was take a rock and break the window and climb in."MOM DID YOU NOT HEAR ME?!? HELL IS ON EARTH WE NEED TO GO TI THE BUNKER!!!" My mom wasn't moving nor speaking. I yelled and yelled and yelled but I got no reaction or response.

"Mom...?" I tapped her shoulder as I pull her to see she was shot four times in the body. I fell on my ass and backed up scared, I was shaking and mostly crying now. "mom......no.....how..." I never been this emotional in my life. I never been so scared...So upset...so mad in my life...I backed up and grabbed a knife and looked around the house for something or someone. "H-HELLO?! ANYONE HERE?!?" I checked the whole house and found no one, I was frustrated and sad now. I had no idea what happened or who did this. I walked outside to find a guy around my age sitting there holding a gun, I walked up to him scared shitless. "H-hey....Are okay?.." He looked at me and then got up. "Your not going to try and rob me?" I shook my head no.

"Not trying to do anything?" I shook my head no again. "Okay...You can come in, my house is like a safehouse" I looked at him and without a second thought I ran inside the house and sat in the living room scared out of my mind. The guy came in and closed the door. "Your the only one that trust me enough to come in.. Everyone else was to busy running, screaming and hiding" I stared at the TV "Something I wanted to do" I said in my head. "what's your name?" He was cleaning his gun as he looks at me. "my name? Oh my name is Thomas" Now that I looked at Thomas he was that one smart kid in every AP class imaginable. I use to wish I was smart like Thomas back in freshman year. But the B's and C's was all I could pull off. Thomas wasn't popular or anything. He was captain of the chest team and Captain of robotics. I love robots, I use to build when I was 10 but lost interest when I turned 12. I use to try and bust my ass to get in the robotics club back in freshman year, I would try to get all A's and no B's. But I was slowly killing myself, Staying up late studying and the homework and the work. It all kept piling up.

I looked at Thomas with some many questions in mind. "Thomas, how can you handle the work? The stress of a team?" He looked at me and smiled, I was confused on why he was smiling. "Well I take care of myself and that's stressful, everyone thinks I'm just some nerd who studies to fucking much. But I'm a smart nerd that's a pothead. After school I smoke and I get work done fast." I was stunned, I always thought Thomas was just some guy that studies all the time with no breaks. But then I had to realize something. "Thomas...Do you think this will end?" He looked at me unsure "I'm not sure...but I sure hope it does...."
