Awakened dead

PROLOGUE

February 4th, 2044,

Nichel was a young, stocky man who wore a blue and gray uniform and had short but sharp black hair that hung down over one of his eyes. He worked at a small gas station store. Around 9 shelves scattered around the store. There was a small little TV under the desk showing some security cameras flashing in many different locations around the store. Some even outside of the store aiming towards the forest surrounding the building. Like one in the back area next to the dumpster, one next to the front doors, back door, and even one on the roof. They wouldn't tell me why there was a camera on the roof. All they said was "Just in case something gets up there" it partially freaked me out because they hadn't said somebody. Though they might have meant someone, I still really couldn't know for sure if that's what they had actually meant by it.

It was a scary thought of seeing something crawling on the roof of the building. The camera on the roof had pretty much been straight above me. There was a vent right behind me leading up to the roof.

I had a microwave set up in the break room to the left of me through a large black and brown door. A woman ran inside and grabbed a Donut and something else. She quickly put the stuff down onto the counter and asked to buy them.

"$13 mam." I told her.

"Okay" she said, pulling out her purse and collecting some money from it.

She handed me 15 dollars and left the place in a hurry.

I went over into the dark brown colored break room and sat down at the little table and opened up my lunch box.

There was a long ham and cheese sandwich in it with a root beer. I opened the little plastic packaging and got up and put the sandwich inside of a toaster bag. I then went over to the table in the corner of the room and put the toaster bag inside of the toaster and pulled the thing down. It began cooking the sandwich.

He went over back to his table and drank his root beer while waiting for anymore customers to come. He went below the counter and looked at the cameras. He saw something moving inside of the forest. Something big. It looked like it was a giant spider of some sorts. But it had a human head and human limbs all extended somehow. Each limb appeared several feet long. Long dark eyes on its face. Skull-like shape of the head. overwhelming giant grin with rounded teeth sticking out of the front of the mouth. Teeth farther down inside of its mouth. It appeared to have zero back teeth. It moved like a large spider. Each limb had 3 long sharp claws at the ends of them. It was heading towards the ladder that led to the roof.

I was scared and I couldn't get the feeling out of my head that this was the end. The thing climbed up onto the roof and went towards the camera, it snapped it effortlessly.

I ran to the break room and closed the door. I pressed the panic button. The door locked and an alarm blared. I put my back to the door. I held my breath for what felt like forever.

I felt my heart pounding inside of my chest. I knew it was inside. I heard the claws tapping on the ground. I swallowed hard, feeling extreme amounts of fear. I hated it.

I quietly got up from the door and walked to the other side of the room. I remembered the emergency gun they had kept in case of a robbery. I went to it. The gun case hanged open with the handgun inside of it. There was a door next to it. It was opened. I went closer to it. And the thing hopped down off the roof. Saliva dripped from its gaping mouth.

I ran to the other side of the door and hid. I grabbed the gun and loaded it. The thing walked in. I pulled the top of the gun back and got ready to fire. My entire body was shaking. It ached with the tension in the air. I waited for it to line up with the gun. I heard the toaster go off and the thing ran at it. I ran around the other side of the door and slammed it behind me. There I was face to face with a gigantic one. Dripping from its jaws was the blood of an innocent person. It stared at me. I raised the gun but it just walked away. I ran to the forest. My feet and legs slammed against the brush of the forest. I slip in the mud and tumble down a hill. I fell face first into a little river. I felt the cold water splash against my body. I got up and continued to run.
