Sudden sounds.

The pounding rain, the pounding of four feet, the pounding of your heart rate, the pounding of your breaths as you ran for your life. A yell of rage, the pounding seemed to stop as you thought back.

It had been a quiet afternoon in the Spring, exactly eight years ago, you were only seven. School had been growing smaller and smaller till it was canceled. The cause? Illness...

A virus had spread quickly across the globe undetected, killing millions. The virus attacked the brain, senses, and even physical traits of those it infected. Those who lived went insane, they would find any reason to attack, any reason to kill. It wasn't even a year before your family got hit with the virus. Your mother and father died of fever first. Your sister and you left home to escape the pain and to avoid growing ill as well.

Sadly, your sister passed after day two of your escape. You took her hat and left bundling what belongings you had left in your scarf. You've had it since you were so little you couldn't recall your exact age. Trying to find a safe place you wondered for three years. Switching from abandoned home to home. Finally you made it to a mansion of sorts. It had food and supplys, in which you hid, till you were only a day before your 15th birthday.

The horrible feelings of worry grew... The next day you packed up your small items and quickly made your way to the exit.

Suddenly you heard someone's psychotic laughter from behind you. Another one of the viruses new human-like victims. You ran for your life, past experiences with them had left your body with so many scars you looked as though you were some freak from a tornado of papercuts. Some scars small, others bigger than your fist. Your black tank top and Black shorts had been your most trusted outfit for years, running in 90° weather from murderous monsters concluded light and dark clothes were the best choice. Your best ally was the shadows, noting your pale skin, if your friends were still living they'd say you were a vampire.

Your glasses hid the fear and pain of running off your legs, past wounds and breaks reminding you of how scarce you managed to escape death each time. The soft grey of your eyes pointed out the flaw you had. Class 4 vision... To lose your glasses meant you would be completely blind, legally blind.

Your eyes scanned for any means of escape. The mountainous terrain held many caves, you'd learned this place's name from school years ago. Mt.Toon, the common name of those who lived here had called it Hell. Drops, caverns, and cliffs that lead to imminent death. Legends of monsters, myths of old lore, but either way you came here, to where children went missing, possibly met their deaths.

Then you saw it, a cave! Quickly you ran going as far as you could, another roar sounded out behind you, snapping your thoughts back to the present, just as you lost footing and fell with a scream of fear as you smacked chest first into a bed of black flowers.

You managed to quickly get up and limp while running farther as a flower with a shocked face... Wait FACE?! You quickly scooped into the dirt pulling it up with you as it said, "What are you d-!?" You quickly cut him off with, "I don't want it to kill you!", as you frantically ran around the corner, you could hear it's raging roar as it hit and started to chase you again. You winced as you felt something in front of you slash into your arm as you ran. Suddenly you heard a loud blast and turned to see a large goat in a robe blast the cavern's roof down cutting the entrance to here off with thousands of pounds of rock with the flames of black from her hands. She looked at you holding the flower that looked very beat up, missing chunks of it's white petals and leaves, with an eye patch covering it's face on one side. Your thoughts throbbed, along with the wound that was freshly bleeding and seemed to be turning an off color frothy white, as you stumbled, before crumpling to the floor. The last thing you heard was quick footsteps running to you as you drifted away into the foreboding dark of your dreams...

Aaaay~ End of Chapter 1, ended with a cliffhanger. My friends read this and the end made them mad, XD I promised to keep going so I will!

This was made on paper first, then transferred over to here. I fixed some minor mistakes and tryed to add some spice to the story.

My friends also commented:

Friend 1(Dark Aura): "NO WHY A CLIFFHANGER! I WANT MORE KAT! AAAAAH!"

Friend 2 (Thic D from school): *continues to joke about the word pounding, dramatically says SUDDEN SOUNDS~, and thought robe was robot.* "So why is the goat in a robot?" Me: -_- ... Friend 2: "OOOOH PFT A ROBE!" Me: *facepalms*
