Chapter 4: Cat Like Reflexes
This One is a short one.
Casey thought he was free. But in the past hour and a half he has seen what felt like a nightmare. He saw creatures, monsters.
He only just realized how hungry and dehydrated he was. Almost passed out a few times and with only a single water bottle. He has resorted to using the rain water so hydration really wasn't a problem but it could get him sick. Now all there's left is finding food.
He heard a gunshot in the distance a while ago and has been heading in the opposite direction ever since. Which kinda sucked cause he caught the sight of a giant mansion that was in the direction of the gunshot.
Starvation was getting the best of Casey. What disgusted him was the sight of some creatures eating each other. He hated it but he considered trying to eat a dead one.
Just then, two creatures wandered into the alley he was in. He saw a fire escape staircase on the side of the building.
Thinking fast, he pushed a dumpster to where he could reach the ladder. One of the creatures grabbed for his feet but missed.
Casey thought he was in the clear, just to see them start climbing. For eff sake. He started running to the top of the stairs.
But what he forgot was that they don't go to the roof. His only options were to smash a window or try jumping down.
He decided to smash the window, but. "AHH!" Nope, he just ended up hurting his hand. Oh eff it. He started looking for some trash bags he could land on.
Once he saw some he tried to prepare to jump. But he forgot about the creatures cause when he jumped they ended up grabbing him, stopping him and causing him to plummet to the ground.
This is it. How I actually die. Bracing for impact, he felt it and everything went black.
