*****NOT EDITED****
I wake up with a sudden shake from my mom, her curls landings softly on my cheeks. I open my eyes to see a worried look on my moms face. "Somethings wrong Juliana, I need you to wake up--" before my mom can finish, she gets interrupted by a loud crash outside.
I get up quickly from my bed and rush towards my window. I gasp as I see the horror outside, I see cars on fire crashed into the houses next door, people running across the street screaming. I fall backwards unto the ground landing hard. "Juliana we've got to leave!" My mom mumbles holding back the tears. "Hurry Juliana!" I hear my mom yelling. I scream as I see someone crash into our window.
The person shoves my mom into the wall grabbing her face pulling it towards him. I stare in horror as it starts ripping her eyes out, clawing her face and ripping her flesh. I get up and run towards the door, I stop as a person rushes in closing the door. He grabs a gun and shoots its two times in both eyes. The guy screeches and falls down.
I pant and fall to my knees, this isn't true, I'm dreaming. My mom didn't die, nothing's happening. I close my eyes and pinch myself, I Yelp as the pain fills my arm. I open my eyes and look around. The guy stares at me and comes closer. "Did he scratch you? Did he touch your face?" He holds the gun towards me. "Let me see your eyes." I look up. "This isn't a dream" I say. "This is all happening?" The guy stares at me, rolling his eyes. "Yeah, this is real." He laughs. "No duh girl." He goes to his knees and tilts my face towards him.
"I don't see anything happening to your eyes." He grabs a flashlight, flashing it to my eyes. "I don't see any infection." He puts away his flashlight into his backpack and gets up. "Come with me, I can take you to a safe place. I'm not sure if you're infected or not." He holds his hand out. I grab it and stand up, he looks at me and smiles. "My name is Andrew."
