A reporter was talking on the TV screen about a strange apocalypse of the world and how the world was being taken over by strange superheros. I guessed they were talking about the supernatural beings. The screen flashed horrifying images of supernatural destroying buildings. They had taken down the white house. There was a short video of them taking control over pilots and making planes crash into skyscrapers.

Until then, I felt that we were somewhat safe. The last video on the screen before they started talking about the weather was Zeke, he was outside the complex and we were nowhere to be found. The video showed a bird-like creature swooping down and stabbing Zeke over and over again with each swoop. His screams of agony and pure fiery pain were mentally scarring. Then another bird swooped in and took his arm straight off. More screams. Blood was staining the leaves below him.

Then the screams stopped.

Zeke was dead.

We looked on a security camera and saw his remains. I had to look away before I threw up. Then I heard a knocking on the door.

"Open it." Eric said without taking his eyes of the screen.

"But the bad supernatural could be behind it, fine." I opened the door. There was a swampy creature behind it. His or her face was covered in blood, their left arm was twisted the wrong way with a bone sticking out. His eyes were different though. They were purely black. With no light reflecting it. The mouth was covered with green, old moss, with his gums green too. His teeth were yellow and had little bits of green leaves on them.

I closed the door and sat against it. I was weak, the swamp man kicked the door of its hinges and I flew across the room and hit the wall.

I saw Eric get up from the chair and grabbed one of two strange sticks on a table. Guessing by his looks, Eric had no idea what it was. There was a button on the side of it and Eric pressed it. On the thinner end of the stick, pieces of metal started coming out. The metal came out until it made a sword that was buzzing with electricity.

Eric lunged at the creature.

      The moment when Eric hit the creature with the sword I realized he had super speed as his supernatural power. He was walking towards the beast and I saw nothing where he stood. He was in front of the creature now. He plunged the sword into the creatures gut and this green goo started pouring out. I guessed it was blood for him.

Then there came a moment when I felt bad for the beast because he was being controlled. The mossy guy's eyes went from completely black to a sickening bloodshot pair of eyes. All of the moss went away and revealed a green skin human form. The supernatural guy wailed in pain. Eric took the blade out of his gut and heartlessly started cleaning the blade off.

I ran towards the supernatural and kneed next to his side. I let him lay back in my arms as I tried to stop the blood from flowing.

"C-can you sing.. a s-song?" The green man asked in his last dying words.

"No, but I can make mother nature be your final resting place.." I said to him.

I ran outside where the supernatural were trying to get in. Eric was following me yelling at me. "THERE'S NO POINT, YOU'RE JUST RISKING OUR LIVES!" I ignored him and found a tree full of nature

I set the green man down slowly as Eric gave up and went inside. I slowly kneed down, conscious of my wounds.

"Thank yo-" And he was dead. I covered his body in leaves, a coffin of nature.

I swiftly got up and started walking towards the complex, towards that no-good selfish idiot Eric. We were going to have a chat..
