It starts off, her eyes open wide. A shadow towered over her as she coughed and gasped for air. The liquid that kept her preserved surrounded her like a new born.

The night air whispered through the leaves. The city was awfully quiet tonight, used to the government's corruption. No food. No medicine. No authority. No support. It was as if the people of had given up on everything. It used to be riots, a huge crowd of people stealing whatever left over supplies and food they could from the stores and other people's houses.

A lot of people were reported missing months before this happened either deceased or healthy people. No one was investigating not the police, at least. The broadcasting networks and signals of every damn cellphone, t.v., computers  and every device went down. The people suspected the government was hiding something, no shit they were. But of course no one could over power those with higher positions.

Gunnar snored lightly as Lilith  obsereved his face as he slept peacefully, with the occasional mumbles. The creases on his face from the laughter they've had before this shit happened. Lilith stood up from the bed deciding she needed a little breeze by herself opening and closing the door as quietly as possible. She sighed, her eyebrows furrowed once after inhaling the polluted air of this damned city not like she wasnt used to it, it had always been this way. Her elbows pressed on the balcony of the 2nd floor of the compound hearing the sirens of police in the background almost every 5 minutes, now that was a sound she thought she wouldn't hear tonight.

'Fuck' she whispered.

--------------------------------

The sun finally rose although it was about 2 pm the grey polluted city and clouds made it look so...so... 6 am in the morning but it was hot as fuck. Gunnar cupped the bed side hoping to cuddle with Lilith today not wanting to handle the bullshit of their over due rent payments. It wasn't long when he realised she wasn't there at all, groping everyhting he can at her side of the bed. He opened his eyes and squinted from the light of the window trying to adjust his eyes to this new found brightness.

"Lil" he called out his voice hoarse as he tried to sit up from his position. Propping up his elbows to scan the room he rubbed his eye.

"Lil" he called out once more. Still no answer. This made his heart beat a tad faster. As he sat up panic arrising remembering the number of people missing around the city. He walked around the apartment

"Lilith you there?" He practically yelled this time. Looking at every room for any sign of her calling her name every once in a while. "Where is she" he thought pulling his hair in frustration. "Maybe...maybe she just went out to pay the months rent...maybe she took a 💩 at the neighbors wtf... oh for fucks sake we have a toilet right here" he thought even more.

A loud knock on the door interrupted his thoughts as 3 police men barged in holding up their guns

"WOAH WOAH WOAH WHAT THE HELL" Gunnar yelled

"Put your hands behind your back!" One of them yelled pointing a gun at him. He followed exactly as told and kneeled on the floor

"You're under arrest for 'not deleting your search history' "

"W-w-w wait what the fu-"

"Shut it or be shot!" The 2nd one pointed a tazer at him as the thir went closer beside him making him stand and hand cuff him.

"Anything you say can and will be used in court. you will be given a lawyer...." the voice faded in his ears as his vision was blackened by the bandana they used to cover his eyes.
