Alone With Myself and My Mind

Explain the Unexplainable.

Okay, so while everyone has their transformations and everything, I'll just sit and think. Maybe ask Mike for help. Nah, I won't. He's the reason I'm in this shit pile, I should at least try and get out of it myself.

"Why are we the only ones out here...?" I said that out loud, kind of to myself though, since I wasn't sure whether the others would want to think about this. I don't blame them; I don't either.

"Maybe we're dea-" Corbin tried to be funny again, but since Deven had already punched him once, all it took was another punching motion as a threat. It worked well enough to shut Corbin up, at least for the moment.

"Maybe... we're some kind of super humans...?" I really need to ask her what her name is, but she's not half wrong there, since Alkina's already an elf and Deven is apparently One-Punch Man now. "Do you think that's possible? By the way, could I get your name?" Two questions she could most hopefully answer. "We're the only apparent survivors, aren't we? It couldn't be too hard to believe. Oh, and, it's Skyler." After this, she turns to the pile of dust and rubble that used to be Granite Bay High School. 

"C-Could we go look for Zephyr, first?" I respect that Alkina may be afraid for his condition right now, so I decide to give her a nod, looking around. "We should check if he's not already around here, though. I don't want to leave and them come back to realize he was here the entire time." She nods, finally shutting off her laptop and packing it in her string backpack, a small blue one that she always had on her. As stated, we both looked around while I assumed that the others were thinking about their own fates. Curiously, Zephyr did turn out to be nearby, leaning on a tree of the ones around the used-to-be school. Alkina broke into a sprint and ran towards him, only to find that her shapeshifting boyfriend was unconscious. I didn't find that out myself until I had arrived at the same spot.

"Z-Zephyr...? A-Are you okay? Please answer me..." The now worried elf shook Zephyr's shoulder, only to get no reaction from the sleeper. "He's probably fine, maybe just unconscious, don't worry so much." It's just an attempt to calm her down, but it could help. She kneeled besides him and moved him a bit more, starting to frown. "P-Please wake up..." All the talking and moving seemed to start having an effect on the teen, who started to mumble a bit. "It's working! Come on, please, wake up...!" The boy finally blinked his eyes open, and at seeing the school, he shot up, panicking. "W-Wait, what's going on?? Why is Granite Bay destroyed so suddenly! Wha- What-" Alkina takes him by the shoulders, and I figured it was my cue to leave. I probably don't want to see whatever they manage to spin this into.

"So, Skyler, you were saying we could be super human?" The girl directed her gaze from the school back to me, allowing her head to give a nod in response. "Yeah, I'm still not completely sure how, but-" Lucy shot up from her sleep, or whatever it was, and let out a scream that I can personally say came close to shattering my ear drums. Most obviously, we all freaked out and rushed to her, all of us frantically asking questions. Well, everyone except me. I'm just like that. "I had a dream- We- I don't- We all- School-" She kept stammering words, and I decided to finally shut everyone up, so Lucy could at least try and regain her motor skills. "Everyone, quiet!!" Good, it seems to have worked. Lucy stammered more, and I realized she really was struggling to regain her composure; that dream, vision, or whatever she experienced must've been bad.

Something hurts. In my head.

Mike, you better not be trying to kill me, because- Ow, fuck! Might be migraine, or something... I collapsed, not knowing whatever the hell was going on with me. Maybe some divine force decided it was my time to be transformed into... well, whatever I would transform into.

I don't want it to kill me.
