America 2018,

It was only 8:15 when Tracie knew she had to leave, 'why so soon Tracie?' Pegg her best friend asked, 'I need to go, we have exams on Sunday' replied Tracie in a hurry, granted it was too early, but Tracie was too anxious to go home, she couldn't stand another minute in this loud party filled with the jocks, 'oh com on!, your too stressed, here have another drink!' Pegg said as she passed her a plastic cup, but before she could answer one of the jocks yelled out, 'yea red, want some vodka?' The rest of the crew joined in with laughter, 'I'm sorry but I need to go!' She said as she shoved her textbooks about 'civil rights' and ,'Russian history' in her back bag.
'Just ignore them Trace, they're a bunch of idiots!', Pegg chased her to the door, she could see that Tracie was beginning to tear up, 'it's a party, have fun, enjoy the music!', 'no, I need to go, and it's Tracie not Trace!' Tracie sobbed, Pegg held her arm tight, 'what wrong?, why are you acting like this?!', 'I'm sorry, it's just I don't need...this!'
'What do you mean?, the party has just begun!', one of the jock's followed beside Pegg, 'cmon red, why 'you bein' a buzzkill?' He wrapped his arm around Pegg's neck, she slithered away from his gripping arm, 'knock it off Chase!' She stared him in the eye, "chill, am just messin' 'round girl, not my problem she's too sensitive" he teased ,'your being a total jerk!' She confronted him, but all that didn't matter; Tracie only had one thing in mind, and that's to flee this party as fast as she could, 'g'buy' said Tracie as she let loose from Pegg's grasp.
It was a cold winters night, but Tracie was determined to get home, the wind had a particular bite to it as she made her way through the snow, her house was only a couple of blocks away from Pegg's.
Tracie checked her wrist watch, 8:36 PM great, that's another 30 minutes wasted, her house came into view, just across the park, the swings began to slowly rock back and forth but that didn't alarm her, it was breezy; but what made her wary was the miraculous movement of the see-saw and the merry-go-round, those equipment were made of still steel, it must be the wind surely?
But when she turned around, her heart stopped; she's never seen anything like it, it had an expressionless face, 'you will die earthling!' She pushed the creature away and started to run, but only halted when she heard its familiar laugh.
'Ha-ha-ha!' the creature knelt down to its knees, 'did you get this Ernie?' a jock followed with a camera on his left hand, 'yup got it!' He yelled back.
The monster wasn't a monster at all well at least not in that way, it was the jock that teased her at the party; he took off his green bug-eyed mask off to revealed his perfectly symmetrical face, 'man! Did you see her face!' They both started to laugh as she stood there still terrified, 'yo- what's up with her?' Asked the camera man, 'hello? anybody in there?' He tapped his finger at her forehead.
Still she looked terrified fixing her unblinking gaze behind the 2 guys, and it was moments after that blood seeped through their nose and eyes, they screamed in agony, as 2 robotic figures emerged from behind them, 'you will be deleted!' The figures spoke, but Tracie wasn't hanging around to watch, she did the only thing she could, she ran faster than she ever had, she wanted to scream and shout for help, but her mouth didn't respond to her command, though she was running fast, the figures were still gaining up on her, she turned to see the progress of the 2 robotic figures only to see a another one in front of her, and with one touch she could feel the warm blood seeping from her face...
