I wake up to a sudden crash in the hallway. "Ahhhh!" Something screams. I'm not alone. I lookout the peephole in the door only to see an eye staring back at me. I have a gut instinct that this is the one day mark. Which means that it's time for the first trial. I'm prepared to sacrifice my life and I'll gladly do what's right and go into the hall and face the beast. First I need to brush my hair and teeth. I go into the bathroom and I see a box on the counter. I open it and inside is armor and a sword made of gold. I am extremely gifted in sword fighting. In school I am a Platinum level in sword fighting, and the highest in my class. I put on the armor just as I hear the door breaking down. I grab my sword and I see, oh no, no, no, I come face to face with a Caalme. It's teeth gleaming and it's grinning at me. It's body is ashen and red. It's its eyes are completely black. It's inhuman. I slash my sword through the Caalme and just seconds afterwards it turns into a potato. Legit. Hey, I have dinner now! I begin to walk outside but it begins raining and just as I turn I hear a loud explosion. Oh no, what happened now? I wonder. A building crashes to the ground. I assume that, that signifies that the seven o'clock mark has arrived and you need to go to shelter before more Caalme's come. I run to my room and lock the door. Sleep comes very quickly.
I woke up earlier and I felt really sick so I stayed in bed most of the day.
I woke up and still felt quite groggy and I believe I had caught the Giogopogas, it usually goes away really quickly.
This morning in particular feel so much better. "Echo? Hello my name is Ash." She smiled and she reminded me so much of my sister that I nearly cried looking at her. But, from behind her came a boy who looked close to my age. "I am Flame, Ash's older brother. Nice to meet you Echo." I smile. "Nice to meet you, too." I now have a small but well-rounded society.
Wait, does that mean I am the president? Well it makes me more of a founder. If I wanted to be president we would need more people and have a democratic way of voting.
We as a group decide on roles. I am the government and I work with the law and order, and Ash is our supply manager she helps get us food and water and Flame will be our security guard but that role will switch with him also being a businessman supplying us with fun things to do while we wait for twenty seven days to pass. This will be a fun one. I wander back to my room deep in thought. I wonder what Hazel is doing. I hope I don't die. I can't imagine having to watch a sibling die. I make a silent vow to myself not to die. I don't really have a choice.
