     I exit the school and I'm scared for my life. I watch, as a younger kid walks up to me. He stares at me for 30 seconds. Then, he starts uncontrollably laughing. The boy looks about 9 years old. He looks at the fire. While laughing, he throws himself into the flames... I decide to make a journey to my house. On the walk, a guy with a quarter of his head is destroyed. He grabs a baseball bat with barbed wire around it and starts chasing me. I run faster to my house. The sky is blood red. The moon is out early. I can see the planet Mars. It's way closer to Earth than normal. Then, the sky blacks out, as quick as a light switch.

     I pull out a spare spotlight. I see people scurry into their homes. Some of their homes are destroyed. Then, a giant light from the sky turns one like a giant spotlight. I look behind me, and the spotlight is right on the guy chasing me. He doesn't move. He starts begging and crying. Then, his eyes roll to the back of his head. He starts levitating. He drops his bat. All the blood gets sucked out of him and goes to the source of the light. Then, his body collapses to the ground. The light starts to get closer to me, so I run as fast as possible. It's like the light is chasing me. I make it to my house and close all the curtains. I open my dads gun stash, but I freeze. I go to the living room. I hear growling sounds. I go back and grab the shotgun. I load it up with shells. I go to the kitchen to find my mother being ripped apart and eaten by a Wanderer.... I blow that things brains out.
