Gone Today [On-hold]

Surfing the Hilly Terrains

My heartbeat went erratic. I couldn't control myself. I sighed and turned away. I tried to ignore Levi for some time. I didn't care the aliens were almost behind us. I closed my eyes and breathed again. I kept my eyes closed and I didn't dare to turn my face towards him.

After some time, when my heart became regular, I opened my eyes and turned around. Levi was giving me hard stares. It made the hair at the back of my neck stand up. I started chewing my lips in horror.

At once, I heard a strange noise. I turned my face to see as an alien opened its mouth and spitted on us. Somethig weird came out of its mouth. It was a Purplish liquid. It stick to my body as well as Levi's.

I screamed. The aliens made their way towards us.

"We have to do something!" Levi shouted. He was lying on the ground with the sticky liquid around himself. It was his face that was visible. I picked up a stick and pushed it forward. A spiral shaped thing, of Yellow color, came out and hit the aliens. They all fall down. I felt my mouth opening wider. I blinked several times. What was that?

Till the time the aliens managed to stand up, I took off the liquid from me and Levi. Without saying anything, Levi took my hand and ran in the opposite direction. A strange and weird creature stood in front of us. It was huge. It was shaking it's hands. Suddenly, It opened its mouth and roared. I screamed again.

"Come here, this direction!" Levi called me where he was standing. He was waving hard at me.

I ran towards him not letting the creature to throw its saliva on me. I ran faster until I reached Levi and quickly, tied my hand around his waist. He held me and ran. As faster as he could.

The door knocked. I stood up to see if mom and dad were here. What will I tell them? I thought. I cleared my throat and made my way towards the main door. I opened it. My eyes got wide when I saw It wasn't my parents at all. It was Gia's boyfriend, Liam. He was standing straight in front of me. I raised my head up to see him. He was tall and as usual, he had Cheetos in his hand. I hated Cheetos. Whenever I ate them, I vomited. The same happened when I ate a banana. I moved aside to let him come. He was smelly as usual. So I put some of my neck scarf over my nose.

I read a book and kept trying to connect to Steve and the others while Gia sat over her boyfriend watching movies and enjoying popcorn. I wanted to hit their heads together.

We kept on moving. We all were tired, but to find my dear Kaylee, I could do anything. I knew she wanted me too. I hoped to see her again. I was thinking when suddenly, some rocks started falling down. "Everyone! Get at a side!" I shouted. So everyone did. I felt as I was the leader of a team. A real team.

After some time, the rocks stopped and as we took our hands off our faces, we saw that the rocks had blocked our way. "Shit!" Olivia banged her hand on the wall. All of a sudden, the place where Olivia had put her hand, started moving in making a way. It was wide but a narrow one. As Olivia removed her hand, some bats came out letting dust everywhere. We all coughed.
