CHAPTER 1
It all began when they showed up. It was the perfect night. My friends and I had just finished eating at the Golden Moon, a restaurant that was so busy it was near impossible to get in. We decided to take a shortcut home; we just had to walk through this alley.
It was so dark that we couldn't see. A couple of my friends wanted to go back, and secretly, I agreed. Soon enough we were halfway through so we started to feel better. A light was shining in front of us, so we walked toward it, thinking it was the way out. I don't remember exactly how it happened but one second I was walking toward the light, and the next second I was on the floor. I could hear my friends screaming and running; the sounds of breaking bones could be heard, something that is etched into my mind.
I knew I had to get up, but I couldn't move. I didn't understand what was going on. After being in the dark for so long, my eyes adjusted and I could make out some of what was happening. I instantly realized that whatever was attacking us wasn't human. But what was going on? What was attacking us, and why?
A bloodcurdling scream interrupted my thoughts. I looked up in time to see one of the creatures bite into my friend's neck, and I cringed at the sight of blood. I looked around to see similar things happening to my other friends. People that I had spent my whole life with were gone in an instant. At that moment, I knew I was going to die. One of them walked towards me, actually thinking it was funny to mock me before he killed me.
"Nowhere for you to run now is there sweetie?" He started circling me, a crazed look in his eye.
"W-w-what do you want with me?" I managed to stutter. I was definitely passed terrified.
"I think you know exactly what I want. You see, I-"
He was cut off by something flying through the air which hit him in the face. I looked toward the source and saw Will, a slingshot in his hand. I didn't move, as I wasn't quite sure what was going on. Part of me was hoping that this was all a nightmare and any second I would wake up, with Will by my side.
"Run Gianna! Run!" Will screamed.
I painfully realized that I wasn't going to wake up. This was really happening. Will was giving up his life to save mine. Tears ran down my face. Images floated through my mind. Will holding my hand and making me feel better. Will always knowing what the right thing was. A sob escaped my throat as it finally hit me that I would never see Will again. I knew if I didn't act now, his sacrifice would be in vain.
I realized that I had started running. As my mind didn't know what to do, my body took over, forcing myself to leave. I was almost out of the alley when I heard the worst sound imaginable. A scream that I instantly recognized as Will's.
