End Of The World Story

"

My Face Was Swollen, And Covered In Sweat.

Blood Running Down My Face, My Black Eye Throbbing.

He Throws Another Punch At Me;

Knocking Me To The Ground.

Tears Running Down My Cheek, As I Start To Cry.

I Hear Laughing ...

My Vision Blurs, As I Get Kicked In The Face.

More Blood Runs Down My Face;

A Sudden Kick To My Stomach

Leaves Me Gasping For Breath.

" I'm Going To Die. " I Thought To Myself.

They All Just Laugh At Me.

How Do I Fight, What I Can't Kill?

I Get A Jab In My Rib Cage, His Long Finger Nails Digging Into My Flesh.

" I'm Losing To Much Blood "

The Thing Took Another Punch At My Face ...

As It Made It's Horrible Shirking Scream.

I Couldn't Take It, I Felt Dizzy And Passed Out.

A Bright Light Awoke Me, As my Eyes Burned.

" Dude, It's Time To Get Up. "

It Was Taylor.

" Yeah ... Ok "

I Looked To The Left Of My Bed, It Was Empty.

Taylor Gave Me A Look, But He Knew What I Was Looking For.

" She Is Already In The Food Court Dude, She's Fine. "

I Nodded.

Taylor Is 24 And What A Guy He Is, He Was About 6"0 And Skinny As Hell.

He Has Long Blond Hair And Isn't Very Built, Though He Might Not Be The

Strongest Of Out Group, He Was Defiantly The Smartest.

" So " He Said

" I Was Thinking .. "

I Looked At Him, As I Put Some Pants On.

" Thinking Of What ? " I Asked A little Puzzled.

" Well,  Me And Your Sister Have Been Dating For A While Now ...

And Ummm err, Maybe After All This I Would Propose. "

He Was Staring At The Floor Trying To Avoid Eye Contact With Me.

" Your Asking For My Permission ? "

He Looked At Me Kinda Scared Of What To Say.

" Yeah I Was. "

Finished Putting My Shirt On And Putt My Arm Around His Shoulder.

" Taylor, I Would Be Honored. " I Said With A Big Smile On My Face.

He Smiled Back.

I Started To Walk, Then My Chest Started To Throb In Pain.

Taylor Stepped Back.

My Chest Felt Like There Was Something Inside Of Me Trying

To Rip Through My Flesh.

I Started To Cough Up Blood, As I Fell On My Hands And Knees.

" Ahhh Taylor ! " I Screamed.

He Looked Up.

" Taylor Get The Antidote ! "

He Stared At Me ...

" TAYLOR GET THE F*****G ANTIDOTE ! "

He Ran For My Freezer And Grabbed A Needle.

My Chest Started To Bleed As The Claw Marks Glowed A Dark Red.

I Was Coughing Up More Blood;

I Couldn’t Breath.

Taylor Ran Up And Drove The Needle Into My Arm.

A Horrible Scream Echoed Through The Room.

Then Silence.

I Could Hear Both Me And Taylor Breathing Heavily.

" Moe ... Are You Ok ? " Taylor Asked.

I Got Up And Headed For The Sink.

" Moe ? " He Asked Again.

I Looked At Him.

" Yeah ... I’m Fine. "

" There Getting Worse Aren’t They ? " He Asked.

I Wiped The Blood From My Mouth.

" Just Don’t Worry About It, I’m Fine.  "

He Looked At Me With The " I Don’t Believe You Look " He Sometimes Gets.

" Listen I’ll Clean Up This Blood, You Head To The Food Court I’ll Be Fine. "

" Yeah Ok. " He Said As He Shut My Door And Left.

 

The Mall Was A lot Different Then It Use To Be, More Empty.

I Came Around The Corner To See The Rest Of My Crew In The Food Court.

Taylor Was Sitting Beside My Little Sister Jaclyn.

She Was 22 And Short Only About 5"9.

She Had Long Brown Hair And Hazel Eyes. She Was The Youngest Of The Crew, But

Defiantly The Loudest.

I Looked Around And Noticed Tubby Cooking In One Of The Empty Food Stands.

Tubby Was 23 And A Tank. He May Not Be The Tallest But He Was One Of The Greatest

Marksmen In The World. He Is 5"12 And Very Skilled In Weapons, And Cooking.

I Headed For A Table And Sat.

I Could Hear The Taylor Telling Tubby And Jaclyn What Happened. They Just Watched Me

I Decided I Wasn’t Very Hungry, And Decided To Leave. Besides I Didn’t See Her In

Here Anyways.

The Halls Were Dark, As I Stumbled Around. I Headed To The Projection Room.

As I Walked Down The Empty Run Down Halls, I Thought Of That Day. The Day

I Became Infected.

When A Mutant Infects A Plant Or Animal It Usually Dies Right Away Before Becoming

One Of The Dead. But When A Human Is Infected, They Experience A Slow And Painful

Death. The Infection Turns Any Human In To A Mutant In A Matter Of Months.

I Was Lucky, For When I Got Infected Taylor Had Already Came Up With An Antidote To Slow Down The Infection Not Completely Destroy it. I Knew I Would Die Soon Tho, I Just Wish I Didn’t Have Any Regrets, But I Did.

 

I Entered The Projection Room And Found It Empty. Where Was She?

I Hate Being Away From Her, So I Took a Seat And Fell A Sleep.

" Morley ? "

" Yeah ? "

" Do You Fear Death ? "

I Smiled At Her, As She Wrapped Her Arm Around My Chest.

" Yes I Do. "

" Why ? "

I Laughed, She Always Asks Me These Questions.

" Well I Don’t Really Know What Happens When You Die And Not Knowing Scares Me. "

She Looked At Me With Her Beautiful Blueish Eyes.

" And Plus I Wouldn't Get To Be With You Anymore. " I Said With A Smile

She Smiled At Me Back, How I Love Her Smile.

" If You die, I'd Die To " she wispered.

I Leaned In And Kissed Her, Then Fell Asleep.

I Awoke To The Sound Of The Silence. I Looked Up At The Clock.

3:04 pm.

" They F*****g Left Without Me? "

I Ran Out Of The Room And The Smell Of Rotting Flesh Hit My Nose.

I Ran Down The Halls.

Yelling ...

" Is Anybody There ? ! "

I Got Back To The Food Court And Found Green Blood.

Mutant Blood.

" F**k. "

I Ran To The Basement, Because That Is Our Safe House.

The Stairs Were Covered With Blood.

The Basement Door Was Locked So I Pounded.

" Taylor, Tubby Let Me In! "

The Door Slid Open And I Found An Empty Room ...

Totally Empty;

Except A Chair, A Tape, And A Tv.

I Sat Down And Put The Tape In.

It Was Tubby And Taylor.

 

" Moe ... We’ve Been Friends Since Grade School, And You’re My Best Friend. " Said Taylor

" Moe ... If Your Watching This It Means Were Gone, We Left You. You Knew This Was Coming.

Ever Since You Became Infected; You Knew One Day ... We Would Have To Kill You Or Leave You. We Couldn’t Kill You Moe, We Couldn’t Break Summer's Heart. And yes This Means She Is With Us Moe. Where Taking Her With Us, She Fought So Hard To Stay With You Moe, But We Can’t Let Her. When You Turn, You Know You’ll Have No Control And Kill Her. Her And The Child. Moe She’s Pregnant, With Your Kid. And If You Really Love Her, You'll Have To Let Her Go. Don’t Try And Find Us, If You Do We'll Have No Choice ... 

But To Kill You. Please Don’t Make Us Do That.

Goodbye Moe, If There Is A God I Hope He Find Your Sole And Saves You.

Goodbye Moe. "

The Tape Stopped.

My Eyes Were Full Of Tears. I Sat In My Chair Crying.

And Then A Noise Came From Outside The Door.

" Summer ? " I Yelled Still Crying.

The Door Opened And There Was Horrible Screams.

The Room Filled With Mutants As They Surrounded Me, I Could See More Outside The Door.

I Looked At The Ground, I Tried To Remember Her Voice.

They Hissed Around Me, Claws Extended.

I Zoned Out, Time Stood Still I Cried.

I’m Going To Die.

I Fell On My Knees.

And Herd Something.

" Morley. "

I Light Was Blocking, My Vision.

" Morley "

Who Was it?

I Looked Up. It Was Her. Summer.

" Morley, I Love You. "

She Extended Her Hand. I Took It.

The World Went Back To The Snarling Mutants Trying to Kill Me.

They Jumped Closer. Tearing Into My Flesh.

But It Was My Time To Go.

But I Will Always Have The Memories Of Me And Her.

 

The End
