The earth is in chaos but I am not sure what is happening. I find myself in a classroom that has beds on the ground and at least 30 people in the room. There are old filing cabinets on the back side in between windows. People on beds at least 4 to one. I see family's with children as young as 3. The classroom is dark, people have dim lit flashlights. The windows and doors are borders up. In between the boards I just see red. The ceiling looks like the ones you pop off but is still in tact. There is only one door not boarded and I'm guessing it's a bathroom. People seem hungry and I don't remember how I got here. I find myself right next to one of the two doors to the outside. I'm on the edge of a bed. My bag is at my side. I hang on to it with one hand and I am facing the door. People fall in and out of sleep. I drift off into sleep. My eyes feel like glue when I try to open them. Then I see something. My eyes fly open and I'm up. Hands breaking through the doors. People start screaming. I go straight to the back of the room but things are getting in. I start climbing on the filing cabinet. I figure my only way out is up. Everyone is either attacking or being attacked. These things are not like anything I have ever seen. They are biting people and ripping them apart. I push up a ceiling tile and jump in as fast as I can. I don't think anyone seen me. I crawl through the ceiling being carful what tiles I crawl on. I still hear screams. I lift one of the tiles and see a hallway. I look around and see no one. I drop my bag first. Then I hang and jump. The walls look like they are bleeding. The floor seems to have blood all over it too. I try to stay close to the wall and move down the hallway I come to an intersection. I check both ways and see nothing. I still hear the screams but then all at once they stop. I keep walking and then I come to another intersection. This time I see light at the end of one of the hallways. I start walking down that one. As I start walking down that hallway the walls have less and less blood and then in a moment they are as clean as can be. Everything looks brand new. Then I hear people. I see a closet and open it, I hurry in. It's dark in here. I have a tiny flashlight in my pocket attached to my bag and I pull it off. First I shine it on the floor, then up. I see food, clothes, medicine. As I open up one of the cans of food and start eating, I put a few more in my bag. I take a look at the medicine and take things that might be useful. But underneath the medicine I see a lot of books I grab one and put it in my bag. The clothes are all the same outfits and I decide to put it over the clothes I have on. I try to clean my face off with another pair. Then I creep out the door. The people are gone. I continue walking looking for an exit and keeping watch. Then I start to hear people a lot of people. I keep up on the side and I see the door is open to the outside. People are walking by me and they don't notice me. I walk more in front of the door and look out. Everything outside of the door is dirt and we're on a hill and there are people out there, there looks to be some kind of detectors of some sorts and also seems to be a mixture of technology. The people are all in the same thing. All of their eyes are straight no smiles no emotions and they are going through a turnstile exit I follow after another group it's a big group everyone walking straight. The sky is a deep red. I follow right next to one person trying to be there shadow as they go through the turnstile I swerved to the side left and go right past it. I keep up with them and wait for someone to stop me. No one ever does so I keep walking and walking. Those people seem to be staying in the same places. I need to find somewhere to go where they are not. After walking for a few hours I come across a few cars but none worked. I come upon another car and I get it to start. I continue on for another few hours until I see a house set far back from the road. I need to rest and this is as good as it's going to get right now I pull in and park the car behind the house so that way if anyone's on the road they can't see it. I hope no one is inside. I sneak in the back door and look around, so far nothing. Then I hear a sound coming from a room. I get closer and Bam the door flies open and there's someone staring at me and he swings. I fall down hard. He lifts up a gun to shoot me. "Please, I'm not one of them." He drops to his knees "how am I supposed to know that you look like them, you have the same clothes as them." "I had to put them on to get out, look I have my clothes on underneath." He scowls at me first then had a questioning face "you were in there?" he said "that's their school you know I never known anybody who got out. I had a few friends that went in there they thought it was safe. Do you know if they're still in there?" "No" I say "the room of people I was with were attacked everything went crazy, I got out at first I heard all there screams but then everything stopped." "Oh Okay, must have been scary" he says disappointed. I nod my head to say yes. He looks at me in the eyes and says "you can stay the night." He starts showing me around and takes me to the room I will be sleeping in. I am not sure if I trust him yet. He has dirty blond hair and a scar going from the bottom of his eye to his ear. I wonder how he got that he seems to be around the same age as me probably 25-30. He said he could feed me we sit at the table in the kitchen and gives me some rice. He told me that he lost everything but some things are not adding up but I don't ask questions. After I finish the rice I head up to my room for the night. I decide to rearrange the furniture so that it blocks the door in the room I am givin. There is a wooden bed frame a dark wooden dresser and desk. I slide them all against the wall. I make sure the window is locked. I set a sound bobby traps on it. As soon as I hit the bed I drift to sleep. I wake up being pushed. I spring up and grab my knife. He's trying to get in. "I was just going to see if you wanted something to drink" he says as he pushes his way in. He looks at me with a slight grin,"you don't trust me?" I back up and set off my sound trap. He gets closer after he pushes the furniture out of the way he pushes it back in front of the door. "What do you want?!" I say franticly, trying to think of a way out and there is none. The windows have been nailed down, something I missed. He grins again and pushes me against the wall. He starts trying to kiss me m. I try to push him off but nothing is working. As soon as his lips are about to touch me everything goes black. When I come back to, all I see is blood. There is blood dripping off of my hands. He is on the floor with no life left in him. "Shit!" I squeeze out of the room and As soon as I get in the hallway I fall in searing pain. My head is starting to remember things. I'm getting flash backs of people and places. Tears start filling in my eyes and I hold it back. I run downstairs grab a few more cans and go to the bathroom quick, then I head out the back door. I jump in the car and drive on to the road.
