War through Time

Yet again based off of a dream I had! 😛 Don't read if you hate depressing stuff!

<Cancer's POV>
//Prologue//
6 months have passed since I've moved to this new community. It was nerve-wreaking trying to make new friends but I dealt with. Through these 6 months, I've become best friends with a girl named Aries who was always cheerful. I can never cry in front of her, she always cheers me up. After 2 months, some mysterious people took Aries away claiming that it was for a special project. I've never saw her again.
I tried searching for where Aries could've possibly went. I've checked everywhere but no such luck. She just disappeared. I cried every night, thinking of what could've happened to her, nightmares of horrible possibilities. And when I thought things couldn't have been worse, a war started. A small island called Ares (Named after God of war) invented a new weapon, a bomb that unleashes waves that instantly kills humans within that area without harming the land. They tested one on another island and killed hundreds of people. Everyone feared that type of power, and fear overwhelmed everyone.
Countries threw down nuclear bombs without thinking, and cities disappeared from existence. When humanity finally figured out what they have done, the world was covered in ashes and smoke.
People instantly began blaming each other, order was lost. The governments that have once ruled and kept laws all was demolished. People torn down schools and made jails instead. Anyone that they can blame were thrown into jail or killed on the spot.
Chaos.
//End of Prologue//

I walked around the empty streets, scavenging for food and resources. I checked if there's any people, then kicked my neighbours door down.
Inside I took all the food then scurried back home.
My neighbour won't need it. After all, the dead can't eat.
I stored the food in the refrigerator before face-palming myself.
Stupid. Of course there's no electricity! The power plants were bombed!
I brought the food downstairs where's it's slightly colder, maybe the food can last longer that way. Along the way I made eye contact with a glowing crystal on display by the stairs.
Now remember Cancer, that Crystal can only be used by two people, only when you feel as if there's no hope. It'll take you back 5 years. Never use it out of greed!
That was the sentences my grandfather would often tell me. When he was alive.
Maybe I should use it now. But it requires two people... I dunno....
The face of my baby sister, Sagi, who was only 3 flashed into my mind.
I shook my head. No! No! Don't think of her! But I sat down and cried for her anyways.
May she rest in peace along with Mother and Father.
I walked away, miserable. Maybe suicide doesn't sound that bad now....

A stray cat walked up to my door with eyes of anger and betrayal. Humans have stolen too much. And they'll only realize that when it's too late to change anything. That's the nature of humans.
I gave it a granola bar and it walked away, staring at it's world, covered in blood and death. I had a strange urge to visit the school, which is now a jail. But maybe I might find something useful! Well, that is if I don't get caught....

I stared through the metal jail bars, surrounding the building for the prison.
Many hopeless eyes stared at me, in envy or in fear. After all, I'm outside the cage, their stuck inside. One pair of eyes shone of fire, a blazing courage that quickly got burned out by the dreadful skies. He made eye contact with me and I waved back.
I was just about to say hi when he quickly but his hand up to his mouth and signalled me to stay quiet. Oh yeah! IDIOT! The police will throw me in jail if they hear me!
But what is the point of having polices when there's no rules or laws?

I signalled that I'll be back and then I ran home, grabbed 2 of the small white board and 2 dry eraser markers that I used to play with along with my sister...
I don't know why I kept those items, they have no use in survival.
I snuck back to the jail, where the boy looked at me curiously.
I tossed a board with a marker inside the bars, hoping he would reach to it first before another prisoner does so. Thankfully he did, and the other prisoners didn't even flinch, they just stared with zombified eyes. I quickly scribbled something on the board:
Hey! My name is Cancer! What's yours?
He looked at it surprised then wrote back:
My name is Scorpio....... I'm your classmate......
I nearly slapped myself. How did I forget! But either ways his name has no value in survival, so of course I forgot.
Oh! I'm sorry I didn't notice at first! Why are you in there?
He wrote back and held the board with shaking hands:
My house was bombed, I had to help my brother survival so I stole from a store.... They caught me and killed my....
The rest of the writing was blurred, smudged my tears.
I felt really bad for him, I sorta...... Understand his pain.....
I'm sorry.....
He shook off the unhappy look then managed a very weak smile.
You better leave, there's more guards at night....
I read the message then nodded my head. I signalled him I'll be back tomorrow and I ran back home.
But I swore I saw a small smile from him of anxiousness and...... Hope?

How come all my dreams are so depressing?!?! 😭😭😭
And how come in my dream this story seems so short but when I wrote it out its soooooo longgggggg! I was gonna make this a one part story!!!!😞
I just have a strange urge to finish writing this before An Unheard Thought so please my patient with meeeee!!

Oh, and here's the ending to Virgo Secrets:
I woke up, tired and walked out the door when I tripped down the steps and smashed my head on the cement. I died. The end.

Okay okayyyyyy I was joking! I just wanted to end off this chapter on a happier note!
Instead of having u guys feeling miserable all day after reading this!
<Okay I may have made things worse....>
And I have the song The Lost One Weeping stuck in my head....
