The Third Omen

5 parts Complete

Omen [oh-muh n]: (noun) 1. Anything perceived or happening that is believed to portend a good or evil event or circumstance in the future; portent 2. A prognostic 3. Prophetic significance; presage *** My father once told me us humans have a natural instinct inside, one that truly cannot be hidden and restrained when needed or forced out. It simply lays there for a while, patient-almost dormant, yet still working-planting thoughts of recklessness combined with self-destruction into our weak, susceptible brains. Inconspicuous, impossible to detect, and, of course, we're also extremely stubborn to realize what's going on until it is way too late to fix the damage caused. Ironically enough, that's exactly what happened with all of humanity. All at once. *** Three omens-the Natural Mishap, the Isolation, the Virus-and a haunting past that seems to mercilessly chase you. Keep in mind three things to survive: 1) Run. 2) Don't look back. 3) Stay on your track. And remember, a Wendigo never forgets.
