Blue Moon
The year was 2012. We…We had no idea this would happen to us. They…They came from nowhere. We never had time to prepare. All those people…those poor people. They never had a chance. They were completely ripped to shreds before we could evacuate. My commanding officer, Victor, told me to evacuate everyone. So that's what I and a couple of others went to do. The…The sight of some of the people getting ripped to shreds was…unforgettable. It was even worse when we lost Jack to the creatures. He…He was a good and loyal soldier. Never had a chance…completely gone before we could arrive. The people who kept saying the end of the world was going to happen because of a fucking meteor were wrong. Meteors don't eat people. The streets were full of dead bodies that…let me tell you from the beginning. From where it all started till now. Life was simple, until the day of the blue moon…
Alex is walking around the joint base Lewis-McChord. It was the army/air force base, although he didn't mind the air force pilots mouthing off. Mostly because they were suffering from something he liked to call 'pure jealousy'. He looks up at the dark sky which when some of the light hit his silver eyes, they shined a brighter hue than before. He sees the moon; a full moon showing its prominence, and today was going to be a blue moon. He smiles because he never got to see a blue moon before. This would be his first time.
