It was early morning when I woke up. The sun hasn't even come up yet. I sat up in my bed and looked at my phone. I had a message and it was from my grandma.

"Hey, sweetie have a good first day of school. I love u "

I replied with "Hi grandma, I will and I love you too! bye."

I sighed. I didn't really want to go to school. I'd rather be with my family or my two horses, Carly and Louis. They probably aren't typical names for horses, but I didn't care and still don't. I was about to get dressed when I was so greatly interrupted when my little brother, Teagan came into the room. He was only five. He told me mom wants me and left the room. I got a black and red plaid shirt, ripped jeans, and black leather combat boots.

I went downstairs to find everyone eating breakfast without me. Actually, dad just got done...no one ever waited on me. Well, only my grandma and my brother waited on me. They were truly the only ones I care about. I guess aside from my family never paying attention to me, I had it pretty good. I just sat down at the table and then my mom got up. Teagan was running around the house. I was the only one eating... I felt alone a lot. I don't have any friends except for Carly and Louis. And of course Teagan. 


I finished eating and I noticed the clock. It was time for my first day of going back to school. Yay....my days of summer are gone.

*one hour later*

I was in my first-hour class. It was math. I honestly didn't mind it, but I still didn't enjoy it. School became boring for me over the years. Nothing but the drama was happening. I guess that's the middle school and high school life right there. I was doing my homework when all of a sudden an explosion came. My ears rang because it was so close. Out of natural reaction, everyone instantly screamed and some, like me, got under the desks. I heard someone get on the intercom "All students and staff are to report home immediately. I repeat all students are to report home immediately!" then I heard tons of screams and agitated, moaning sounds. This wasn't good. I needed to go home now. Wait! Teagan my little brother. He couldn't get home by himself. I needed to go get him from his school. It was going to be risky, but I'd do anything for my family.

I got my school bag from my locker. I passed by the gym to see that most of the wall was torn down and there was a lot of blood. I needed to leave this area now. I'm going to be sick. I was horrified when I saw the front office. Blood everywhere and someone... No something was eating the office lady. My stomach twisted. I had to get out of the school now.

I had finally made my way through the now empty streets. I kept looking around to see if anything of those monstrous people were eating anything or if I was the next meal for them. I saw the elementary school. The windows were shattered, glass everywhere. Trash was scattered across the front yard of the school. Well, they boarded up the front doors but not the windows. That totally makes sense. I stepped into a window. No one was inside. I looked in all the rooms. No one was there. Could the teachers have evacuated all the kids? Did mom and dad get him? Did they go back to the high school to get me? So many questions filled my mind and I couldn't answer a single one of them. Whatever was happening was definitely real and for the first time in a long time... I was scared.

A/N: Hey so this is a series I posted but took down. I'm editing it and continuing obviously. I hope you guys like it <3. It's not the best, I'm aware of that and it still needs a little bit of work, but I'm happy with the way it is. Lol, maybe it can get more views than my Marilyn High book.
