They Kill

Uncalled for running

Ashley, Thomas and I finally got to the gym after squeezing through the hallways managing to make it in one piece barely. We went into the gym together. What we saw next was the stuff of true nightmares. The walls had bloody hand prints and smelled like rotten meat mixed with something like rotten eggs.  Then THEY rushed in from the open doors that were supposed to just let light and air into the gym, but look what else got in. Thomas was the first to scream "Run!" Ashley and I gladly obliged, and we started running. I HATE running always have. It always makes my muscles burn, and it feels like i'm breathing in glass shards after I stop. We run all the way to the parking lot and jump into Ashley and Thomas's shared Truck, and we get outta there. "What do you think is gonna happen to the rest of the students?" Ashley asked her face pale and her lip trembling. " I honestly have absolutely no idea" Thomas replied. 

Once we got to our gated community I think we all started to calm down a bit at least until we got to my house and switched on the news. Let's just say that was a mistake. The news reporters were all scrambling to speak saying things about dead people and not wanting to die at this crappy job. The twins each tried to reach their parents as I tried to call mine to see if they were okay, but nobody picked up. I tried calling their work phones and... nothing I couldn't reach them . My eyes started to water and my lip to tremble, No now is not the time to cry I told myself, I need to be strong and get to see this through.I will see them again i told myself , but I knew I was lying. I was most likely never going to see them again.

 "How's it going over there?" I asked my voice shaking ever so slightly. " We can't get through, all the lines are down." Thomas said coldly as if he he was trying to block all emotions from getting to him. Ashley excused herself to the bathroom, but even there we could here her sniffling and her sobbing. I went over and knocked on the door to see if she was okay, when she opened the door her eyes were all red and puffy from the crying and her hair was a mess probably from her constantly running her hands through her hair to calm herself down. I swiftly pulled her into a hug, and she started to cry into my shoulder. I walked us over to the couch, because she had all of her weight on me and I almost collapsed at the sudden change. Thomas walked over and  sat on the couch hugging his sister and telling her things like "everything is going to be okay" and " were gonna find them no matter what". I was starting to worry about my own parents wondering if they were okay , and if I'll ever see them again. 

" Guys we gotta go somewhere safe. Do either of you know a place we could go?" Thomas asked but Ashley and I both shook our heads . I really tried to think of a place that we could go but i had no idea. " We should stay here as long as we can. I mean we have food and the neighborhood is gated , so we should be fine..... right?"
