Chapter 1: turntechGodhead
What the hell is going on? Me and my not-that-cool-as-me-but-is-okay best friend were chilling on the totally ironic sofa, listening to some tunes and drinking Coca Cola, when all of a sudden the alarm goes off. Y'know the alarm that is played world wide whenever some shit goes down? Yeah that thing.
It went off during my favorite song started playing. Shit was so loud that I jumped and spilled my soda all over the place.
"Aw, duuude, what the heeeell?!" I lost my cool as soon as the cold beverage hit my lap. I threw the can on the floor and got up to get some towels.
"Hey Dave, watch it! This is still my house you know; Jeeeeeeeez!" John whined from the living room. I groaned as I grabbed some towels from the sink.
"John, I KNOW that 'jeez' had 8 Es in it! Karkat said to chill and stop that. Its getting on my nerves too." I went back into the living room and saw John retreating upstairs, running quickly and skipping 2 steps at a time.
"What the fuck man?! Come back down here and help me clean this up!" I yelled up the stairs. John didn't come back down. I know he wouldn't when I heard his door slam.
I mentally cursed at him and went over to the soda- crime scene. I knelt down and pressed the towels against the spills.
Stepping on the last one, I noticed that the radio's volume had been turned down, so I went over and turned the volume knob to the right.
The fucking world disaster alarm was still going off. I turned the knob to the right a little more and listened closely. It sounded a little like:
" *BEEP BEEP. BEEP BEEP* ALL CITIZENS ARE TO STAY IN THEIR HOMES. LOCK THEIR DOORS AND WINDOWS. THIS IS NOT A DRILL. ALL CITIZENS ARE TO STAY IN THEIR HOMES UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. THIS IS A MESSAGE FROM THE US ARMY AND THE PRESIDENT."
Okay, what? I kept my panic at a low point and went over to one of the nearby windows. Stepping over the towels, I moved the curtain's to the side and peeked out.
The sun blinded me for a second, since it was hella dark in the house, and it took a while for me to adjust. I still kept my gaze towards the window and finally, my eyes adjusted. I noticed people were on the streets. They were running and screaming and crying. Most were on the floor, face down and bloody. Men and women were getting attacked by other people. This was way too weird.
"I swear if this is like a movie I watched I-"
BAM!
Screaming and falling back, I tumbled towards the floor and landed right on my ass. I groaned and got back up to examine was thrown against the window.
Nothing was thrown.
But a human, a man to be exact, pushing against the window and growling. Gurgling, his hands swifted across the glass, looking like he wants to get in.
His eyes were bloodshot and there was some red stuff around his mouth. His skin looked green and gray, the colors of rot. I looked back at his mouth and noticed something
The red stuff was blood.
