So this is a revision on the first chapter I'll be revising all of the chapters as I go because either I'll think of more interesting things that I should have included but didn't or omitting things that have absolutely no relevance on the plot. So yea let me know you're comments and what not I enjoy the feedback and constructive criticism.
The bass blaring through the dark musky club. The thunderous sound causing the heartbeats of the occupants to race, as bodies ground and slithered against each other in a primal dance of domination. Sweat sticking to slicked skin, violence going unnoticed as the stims took effect. Mind melting, siren's song of the self-inflicted, self-destructive chaotic motions of the young minds thinking that they know best.
Blue eyes pulling themselves from the redundant scene of darwinism at its finest, the young man threw back his shot of liquid courage as the disturbance of the night life seemed to excelle. Goodbye self-destructive tendencies, hello homicidally crazed lunatics.
Incessant eyes drilling into his back shutting his eyes as the darkness of the club seemed to tunnel down towards his shuddering psyche. Hands shaking as the consuming darkness pulled and prodded at him thick tendrils covering him as the air around him seemed to dissipate, leaving the young man breathless. The tendrils slithered like a boa constrictor around his neck. He tries to reach for something in the darkness that isn't consuming him before he could reach it the echoing of something.
A distant memory perhaps. The childish laughing, the warm gentle hugs, the soft voice murmuring to him. What was it murmuring?
The cold lifeless eyes staring at him, reading into his sins of a life he tried to forget, to forgo. Hands clamping down into fists as the whiskey he was drinking began to turn blood red. As if the club had been plagued with a poltergeist everything he thought was reality began to unravel at its very seems. Jerking away from the bar the young man stumbled looking up as the darkness began to fester on the outskirts of his peripheral vision began to get bolder creating images that his minds eye shouldn't be thinking about. Creeping closer the tendril that were once holding him prisoner let go. Dissolving back into the mass that was confronting him. Mind racing as his eyes caught the only flash of white in the club he turned to follow.
Stumbling, knocking over chairs leaping over tables to follow the flash of white. Before noticing it was a head of hair, eyes following the persons movements stuck speechless when she turned. Glowing red eyes narrowed as equally red lips pulled into a smirk, before her eyes looked over his shoulder eyes following the line that she made he froze. When the consuming darkness began to erode away at the clubs interior as if it was acid. Stumbling back he turned as his eyes watched in barely contained horror as the the other patrons of the club began to undergo a twisted, demented sort of metamorphosis.
Eyes that were previously clouded by lust, and the thrill of danger were now dull and even more lifeless that the eroding walls. Faces melting off like wax in front of an open flame, revealed the bones and disfigured craniums of the Diseased.
Heads spinning around like a top, as the torsos were split open as hands began to push themselves out of the fragile skin. The sickening nauseous smell of flesh boiling as creatures pushed themselves out of their hosts and onto the decrypted tiles of the club. Blood and organs falling out of the unfortunate hosts with a sickening splat. Arms of the Diseased rotating out of their sockets as their once five individual fingers fused together to create three separate appendages, elongating into claws as black liquid dripped from the tips. The black liquid congregating in a puddle of filth before eating away at the tile and down into the concrete. Eyes widening as Alec, the young man, was frozen in place as the Diseased made their way towards him before the sound of a single gunshot echoed through the establishment.
Silence.
Hand coming up to his diaphragm as warm liquid began flowing from his wound. Eyes breaking contact with the diseased as he looked at his blood coated hand. Stumbling back, he hit the bar and slid down the side. Pressing his hand onto the wound,trying in vain to stop the bleeding. Dulled blue eyes locking onto the black bloodied face of the albino, the malicious smile still in place as her eyes seemed to light up even more with perverse joy.
The shit eating grin that she was sporting wasn't making things any better either.
The brief moment of stunned silence, then the ungodly shriek of all of the Diseased was all of the warning that was given before more shots were fired. Watching as the albino made quick work of the virtually immortal creatures. Wielding twin pistols and moving as gracefully as a dancer winding in and out, and through the Diseased. When their eyes met once more her maniacal grin was more prominent as she pointed both guns right at him and fired again. Burning red novas forever etched into his mind as he heard the distinct thuds from his sides as the Diseased fell. Black masses gurgling in his peripheral as the shrieks seemed to fade and his vision seemed to dissipate as the darkness seemed more prominent as his salvation sentenced him to the abyss. The high pitched screech of the Diseased was the only thing that jolted him from his dying stupor as the creatures seemed to pause in their assault. Heads cocked up and to the side like an obedient dog. Watching as his killer and now protector stood in front of him with her back turned to him and watched with fascination as they screeched and clawed at their own skin.
Black blood pouring from their wound as the Diseased started ripping into each other; no longer working together as one entity they turned to cannibalism. Sharp teeth tearing into leathery flesh barely covering the very bones of them. Razor sharp teeth going for the thin needle like necks and crushing each other in a never ending cannibalistic feast. Soulless sockets and unnerving grins as the previous fight suddenly became a free for all with the exception of himself and his now protector. He watched in disgust as one of the Diseased began to dissect the corpse of another, scooping out the intestines and unhinging its jaw to let the organs of its brother fall into its mouth before re-hinging its jaw and watching was the remainders of its prey slowly slide from its jaw to its neck.
Rinse. Lather. Repeat.
Not able to take the gruesome sight any more Alec leaned over to his side and purged his stomach of all of its contents. Shaking from fear, blood loss and revulsion Alec could barely focus.
Before the warning was issued nasally, gravely voice murmured into the receding darkness.
"Soon Placeholder nothing will save you."
Fuck his life.
