I had just finished my cheer competition and my dad wanted to take me out.

''I'm so proud of you El.''

''Thank you, papa are, we still going to get my toy from the store,'' I mention as I lick my strawberry ice cream cone. 

''Of course, a promise is a promise'' We finish up our ice cream and walk out hand in hand I couldn't be happier.

We get to Target and head straight to the toy aisle.

I'm going to Target to get some sunscreen although I don't die from the sun it still gives me small burns. On the way there I feel an unfamiliar sense. I try to ignore it then I see a large being trying to jump on me. I quickly move out of the way due to my fast reflexes and it lands on the shelf beside me knocking it over. It springs right back up, and I look at this creature.

 I don't look for long before it tries to jump at me again and I throw a punch to its stomach. it hisses at me in pain.  It proceeds to kick me to the ground and get on top of me that's when I get a good look at it. This creature has dark circles around its eyes and looks very pale and sickly that is when it grabs my head and pulls it to the side but just before it bites me. I notice the long fangs. I extract my nails and rip out its throat it goes limp falling on top of me and I push the body off of me. I mutter to myself ''what the fuck a vampire'' it can't be I was supposed to be the only one my mom made sure of it.

Just then I look to the side and there is more of them like a shit ton of them. I sprint to the front and jump over the customer service counter. I grab the intercom ''Everyone please exit the premises immediately, do not try hide, run to the front as fast as you can.''

I see everyone running out of the building and help anyone who is fighting the strange unfamiliar creatures.

I hear the announcement and my dad grabs my hand. We start running to the exit but before we get there, I feel his hand slip out of mine. ''DAD WAIT FOR ME.'' he doesn't stop. I look around I'm terrified people are running around screaming. there are weird humanoid things jumping on people.

 Just then a person in front of me gets their head ripped off and the blood drenches me. I stand there in shock and then I come back to my senses the creature just stares at me. I start to run I have no idea where to go but I need to get away. All of a sudden, I see this girl run up to me she squats down and speaks in a soft tone ''Hey hey where are your parents.'' I'm too busy looking around to see if I can find my dad or one of those demons. Why didn't God come save us?

I finally look back at her, but I don't answer tears dripping down my face and mixing with the blood of a random person. ''Is your mom or dad here'' I stay quiet and then I start to sob aggressively. she doesn't ask any more questions and instead picks me up swiftly and carries me running as fast as she can to the nearest exit. I try to look around and she instead pushes my head into the crook of her neck.

I don't want the little girl to see the gory situation we are in. she doesn't seem to answer my questions I'm assuming something traumatic happened, but I'll save the questions for later. I run out holding her as tight as I can without crushing her scared that she will slip away, and it will be my fault. I make it out of the building stopping to make sure her heartbeat is still there. ''We're almost there it's going to be okay'' I rub her back trying to convince her nothing is wrong.

I look up at the sky it has a blood-orange color to it, and I see creatures in the air. I don't bother to look around any longer and I start to run again fidgeting in my pockets. Looking for my car keys I find them and unlock the car. I open the back seat door and place her in it buckling her seat belt but just as I close the door.

 someone approaches me holding their neck.
