City in chaos

It's been a month since the bar incident, and that's what everyone is talking about all over the news, social media and on the radio. After the bartender woke up from surgery and could talk again, he told the cop's that everything was dark. So dark that nobody could see what was happening and all he could hear was screaming and the sounds of crunching and tearing of flesh. He then told the cops that all he could see was big white teeth and white eyes, the stench of blood and death.

Of course not very many people believed this story, who would? I mean some scary monster in the darkness killed four people in a bar. The way I killed that guy and woman in the alleyway and the people at the bar, the cops were able to connect the two crimes, at least they're that smart. Even though people didn't believe the monster in darkness story, they were scared of how brutally those people were murdered and started talking of a serial killer in the city. 'Very soon they will believe the monster in the darkness.'

I was sitting at a dine in restaurant, my food already gone cold. I was looking around, seeing if this will be the place I attack next, thinking how many I should kill, how many I should let go and tell the story. There were 13 people in the restaurant including me, I got up and got to work. After I was done, there were four people left standing, well in a way. There was blood everywhere, puddles of it, on the walls, dripping from the ceiling, even the 4, people that I let live were drenched in blood.

I run outside the restaurant just as the cops were pulling up, I was covered in blood and I started to cry to play the part. "Theirs blood everywhere and people are still inside," I said, sobbing. The two cops ran in and as they did I left, turning into a black cloud and shooting up in the sky to go find somewhere to clean up. I was laughing out loud, thinking how stupid they were. I've been flying through the sky as a black cloud, almost like a mist for a while and didn't realize that the blood was just about off of me, from flying with such force that it was coming off.

I go straight into an alleyway and rub off the last remaining blood off me. As I entered the street, I could hear people talking to each other in a concerned manner. I look around and notice a TV in a window, and walk over to it, the news was on and talking about the murder that I just committed. A news reporter was talking to one of the survivors I left, asking what happened. 'Now let's see how many people tremble in fear, not knowing what's out there in this precious city' I thought to myself.

The woman started to explain in a shivering tone, about how everything was fine one moment, and then everything was dark. She went on explaining, almost crying at this point how she could hear the screams of men and women. The whooshing from back and forth, the quick snaps of bones and slicing sounds of skin being torn off. The woman crying now, barely being able to complete a sentence without stuttering from fear said she could hear laughter and see the eyes of a demon lurking in the darkness.

People around me that were watching were starting to get scared. I could smell their fear, hear their hearts racing faster, and see the tremble in their bodies. The news reporter went on and tried asking more questions but all the lady from the restaurant said was there was so much blood and bodies everywhere and limbs all over the place. The news reporter then stopped for a second, probably the station talking to her. Then, when I thought things couldn't get any better, she said the news station has just received a video of this darkness and some viewers may want to look away.

It then showed a video clip, from the angle, the person was across the street filming it. It showed a man, his back against the camera. 'At least they didn't get my face' I was thinking. Then out of nowhere the man formed his body into a black cloudy mist and shot up into the sky. The People around me gasped, they were terrified, I could sense it, they just saw a man turn into darkness. "What the hell is it?" Someone said to my left. "That thing could be anywhere in the city by now." A woman said from behind me. "I gotta leave this city right now before he gets me." A guy said in front of the crowd.

One by one people started leaving the window and took off somewhere. I looked back at the TV, and the news reporter was talking to the captain of police. He advised all people should remain indoors and lock all doors and windows. 'Like that's going to help' I thought to myself. I looked around and barely saw anyone on the streets in both directions, everyone heading home, terrified at what they just saw. Right as I was about to walk away I heard the captain of police tell the reporter that later, this afternoon there will be a press conference, to talk about the recent events, and what's to come.

As I was walking to the hotel to get a room for a few nights to see how this plays out, I stopped by a few homes and gave the cops more bodies, just to show the people of this city that the darkness isn't stopping anytime soon. I finally got to the hotel and got a room for five days. I got to my room, slipped the key card in and went in, I kicked off my shoes, turned on the TV and shut the lights off. I got in bed and sat back while watching the news, they were talking about the chaos I have created.

I missed the press conference on the news, but they were talking about what happened and what the captain and mayor talked about. Apparently starting immediately there has been a curfew set for 10pm, Anyone seen outside past that could be fined and or jailed. During the press conference the news reporters got new reports of the attacks I did in the two homes and how it's the same M. O with the rest of the attacks. The captain and mayor was not prepared for this at all, now the news station is making everyone worried by talking about how can a police force stop a person that turns into a black mist, and disappear without a trace, not to mention they kept replaying the video the guy took that had me on-camera turning into darkness and disappearing.

'This will definitely start to make people scared' I thought to myself. "Now it's a matter of time before this city falls" I laughed out loud. The news continued with the story, leaving out the gory details of the attacks. There has been some reports of people running rampant in the streets, saying this is the beginning of the end of the world, fires starting across the city and stores being broken into. Police in riot gear were trying to get control of the situation, but the chaos was too much, the news had a chopper flying around the city to report everything that was going on.

It's crazy how quickly people panic, how they over react in the smallest situations. Seeing a guy turn into darkness and fly into the sky as a black cloud of mist, must have fucked up their small little minds. People are always afraid of the unknown because human kind wants to know everything. People don't listen, it's like human nature never to listen to reason, they just panic. People are so small-minded, they want to reach for the stars, but want someone else to do it for them. They want to be wealthy but don't want to put in the work to achieve that. Humans are so disgusting with the way they believe they are at the center of the universe. "I can't wait to see how they react with what I have planned" I chuckled. I then turned off the TV and laid back in bed, staring up at the ceiling, thinking about how this city is about to fall to its knees when I'm done with it.
