Chapter 3

BOOM!

What the hell happened.. I opened my eyes and saw fire—literal fire! I quickly stood up and found myself injured but I was okay, I need to find sir Alex first!

"S- Mr. Alexander!" I shouted. I ran around and then someone suddenly pulled me to a corner, covering my mouth. I looked to see that it was Alex. I felt relieved.

"Quiet. Something appeared just now." He said, his voice was serious as he took his hand off of my mouth. "What do you-" I looked down and Alex was injured! He was covered in blood. "S, sir?" i stuttered.

"What happened to you?" I asked, my voice was shaken. "I'm fine, just a little bleeding but I stopped it." He assured. I was about to say something when I heard screams: "Ahh!! Monster! Help me!! He-"

Then, there were crunch sounds. I was horrified.

"Shawn." Alex called, and I was a bit calmed. "Yes, sir..?"

"We need to leave this place. I think what I saw was right." He says, standing up.

"Sir? What do you mean? If I can ask, please, tell me what you saw." I pleaded as we ran to the fire exit.

"They were aliens, monsters, I don't care how you call those creatures but they are not from earth." He said, his voice serious. We finally saw the exit and we hurriedly ran but then, An 'alien' appeared in front of me.

They were horrifying. It.. looked scary. I was so scared that I couldn't move and I fell backwards. What the hell?! Move! Move, damn it! I thought to myself.

Just then, something was thrown at the creature. It was Alex. "S, sir!" I exclaimed. "Run. Run, Shawn." He said, holding a metal piece, using it as a weapon.

"I can't leave you here.." i said, my voice low. The creature launched at him. "Sir!"

"Run before my sacrifice becomes a waste!" He yelled. "This is an order as your supervisor!"

"I-.." I pulled myself together and escaped. Ha.. what a fucking coward you are, Shawn.

Even tho I've only known Sir Alex for a few weeks, he was my one and only friend, I've never admitted it but I actually like spending my time with him! He was a great friend. Fuck, I hate myself!

I was running until my legs ran tired. I ran and ran but I couldn't find a single alive person everywhere, it was all blood and I barely managed to escape from those creatures.

I found myself in a forest, sitting under a tree, exhausted and badly injured. It was quiet. Too quiet. I couldn't even hear the cicadas anymore.

I broke down, I cried—I grieved for Alex. Why did you leave him, Shawn? If I were braver, If  I didn't freeze, I wouldn't be alone right now. Fuck, it's all my fault, it's all my fault. I cried. My hurts so fucking much. Sir Alex was so kind and yet, he gave up his own life for me.. what the hell did I even do to deserve this?
