Chapter 1 - Part 1:Midnight

Choke choke choke...

Chomp chomp chomp...

Something is eating…..

Its sound is different from a human...

Its sound is like a terrible creature...

Caelum is sleeping, he thought it's very quiet and peaceful. Unfortunately, his life will change from this moment.

Wake up from the midnight. The first thing hit Caelum is a headache. He see, he sweated a lot. Look around, it's a no light room with a bed which Caelum is lying down.

Walk down the first floor, he take a cup of water to drink, and start hearing something.

Choke choke choke…

Chomp chomp chomp…

[Someone...or something is eating].

He said, as he confused because he is home alone.

"Maybe my parents came home?"

He suddenly drop the cup, the break sound notice the creature, it slowly appears and come to this place.

"It is coming, who's that?"

His instincts pull him into the blanked wardrobe with a few holes. Because he doesn't turn on the light, he just can see its shadow.

Its appearance, was terrible, he cannot see its face or anything similar to it. But may be,... Just may be…. It's laughing.

His whole body trembled with fear, he let out a small cry, but it was enough to get the creature's attention, it turned its head towards the wardrobe. It let out a creepy laugh as it approached the wardrobe, forcing him to hide even his breathing.

The creature stopped at the wardrobe, then paused there.

was it trying to observe, or tease him, or test his patience?

....

As he moved slightly, something cold and slightly sharp touched his hip, he was startled, but when he touched it, he felt it, it was a kitchen knife. He felt confused and a little cold on his back about the source, but he didn't have time to think about it.

He tightened his grip on the knife handle with his dominant left arm, and kicked the door hard, pushing the creature away, stunning it, taking the opportunity, he threw the knife into its right eye.

Pfftttt.

A liquid flowed from the damaged eye, it roared, and fell to the floor. A terrible smell was strong.

Caelum gasped, fell to the ground in fear, wiping his sweat.

[Aghhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!]

He had just killed "Something" that isn't human.Even though it wasn't human, he had never before encountered a scene of blood and a dead body so directly before his eyes.

He then turn on the lights, to see the creature.

Its shape, it was strange. It was entirely fleshy, like a mass of minced meat that had been molded into this tall, skinny shape. Caelum estimated it to be at least 3m tall.

[Why is this thing in the house?]

Caelum was confused, before the liquid from the creature smelled again.

"It smells really bad. Like a long-dead corpse."

He thought, then suddenly saw a piece of paper at home.

Caelum, if you find this piece of paper, it's best not to go out, the outside world is already devastated, a mess.

He felt confused, who wrote this paper, but while he was still thinking, a huge meaty arm broke the window and reached in, as if to grab him, making him startled.

[Another one? this world is chaos!]

He grab the knife, then pull the door and run out the house before he got wiped by the large creature.
