"In life you can have everything you can ever wish for. The valued piece of paper, the dynamic vehicles, and the exotic clothing but all that can be taken from you in an instant, faster than you can possibly imagine. Today all you can ever wish for now is a good meal, a knife, and a way to survive, that's how things are for the stranded now.

Survive or die.

On November 2nd, the sky was ill with gloominess when it all commenced. Everyone was awake, giving each other the smiles of kindness or passionate affection to our loved ones, and where the delighted faces would be filled with pure happiness that was exposed to the world. It all looked so peaceful and satisfying but sadly it occurred. The evacuation alarm sounded off throughout the world alerting us all that was wrong. It's when we all knew.

Those things were on earth and were attacking us when we were all unprepared. They went after everyone and everything that was alive, that was breathing and hearts beating. It was like we were all put in a cage of all vicious predators. It was a killing spree. In less than seventy-two hours they took out half the world's population, leaving the remaining traumatized and disturbed.
It was catastrophe.

There was so many countless battles against the others. So many deaths and very little winning. Tanks, aircrafts, weapons, and our very own fists wouldn't take every each one of them down. They were all too much for us to handle. Evacuation zones would get too crowded or would be taken over by the others, leaving no leftovers. The remains of humanity would have to make an extreme risk to go outside for any reason. People would go homeless and hungry living in the shadows beneath. It was the dark times for the humans. Nothing was ever gonna take this scarring image from our minds but survivors had one thing left. Hope. The thing we all praised to help us all till we had nothing left or when the pain finally numbed us.

I knew this wouldn't be the end of the others and I know neither will it be the end for us."
