I know something had changed—no, it was not just something. Everything had changed. I didn’t know when did the change started, or where did the change started. Heck! I imprisoned myself inside my apartment for the whole 3 months with only 1 year supply of cans, noodles and rice to keep me going. I just realized one morning when I woke up that everything is not the same anymore. Maybe it was because of my ignorance and naivety that I didn’t took notice earlier that the usual buzzing sounds of the cars in the busy streets in my place has already gone, or the sounds of a new born child crying from her neighbors apartment.
I think what was happening right know is an apocalypse. The near end of our race. I think since they came, the date of when our race will cease to exist had already been marked but I think I can still stop it. As I think im the sole person in this world who haven’t changed.
Maybe being introvert kept me alive. Being aloof and awkward kept me alive. I thought that shutting out the world was a big mistake but here I am now, the only sole person who haven’t transformed to a monster. The monsters who invaded the earth, who transformed everyone who is expose to their powers to be like them and the monster that I will slay whenever I got a chance. Right! I should make a move to finish off all those invaders.
After concluding that in my head, I hastily prepared myself and packed some weapons that I could possibly use in fighting those monsters. Right when I step foot outside the apartment, the grim aura surrounding the place had greeted me. The deserted hallways were filled with dim lights, only to make the place look more scary. After I scrambled down the stairs, I immediately went outside.
The cold wind greeted me as soon as I was outside. The first thing I noticed out there was the eerie silence and the unexpected cleanliness in the surroundings. I thought that maybe when there is an apocalypse, the whole place would look like hell but it is quite the opposite. I started to dart away from the place when I saw a movement from my peripheral vision. I turned to see what moved and saw a man staring widely at me across the street. I didn’t recognized him at first but when my eyes darted to his white outfit, I recognized him in an instant. He was one of the monsters. With his eyes that looks like it was going to come out, I knew that he was hiding something more hideous inside his red bag. A look of determination crossed his face when he saw me starting to run back to my apartment.
While running, I could feel him hot on my heels. No, he shouldn’t get to me. He will take me away and make me like him. I don’t want to look hideous. I don’t want to be a monster but unfortunately, he have caught to me. He tackled and injected me with something that made me lose my consciousness.
When I woke up, I saw that I was inside a white room, restraints were all over my body. I tried to wiggle out but I cant. No, I should not give up. I am the sole person who can save the world, the future lies on my shoulder. I need to get out. Just as I felt hope in my hands, it vanished right away when the door flung open and my mother came in-or what was left of her. I felt miserable as I saw my mother like them; her eyes were also bulging out as if it was going to come out. She walked to me and held my hand. I don’t understand why she kept telling me to come back when It is them who really needs to come back.
