Sam's aunt ran as fast as she could.The people walking next to her looked at Sam's aunt strangely, as if she were a weirdo, because she didn't stop running until she reached her destination.Church.There at the church, Sam's aunt was a good friend of her father who took care of the place, and who was in charge of giving the mass ceremonies both during the week and on the weekend.Sam's aunt, one day, after having attended a seven o'clock mass, was surprisingly invited to have coffee with her father, after he approached her and prevented her from leaving there to take return to your house.“Miss, good evening, I hope you enjoyed the ceremony, I know we don't know each other very well, but I ask you to please stay and join me for coffee before you leave. I would like to talk with you about a very important topic,” mentioned the church father.Sam's aunt accepted the invitation only because the man had been kind, the man invited him to come to his house which was located right there in

Silence accompanied Sam and his aunt back to the house.Sam walked at the same time she did, he walked while he was immersed in her thoughts and regrets. The darkness of the forest became his best friend at that moment, his accomplice who wanted to accompany him in these moments.When he got home, Sam still felt very strange, as if there was something inside the forest that had followed him until he got there and that didn't want to leave him, and unfortunately, Sam was now able to sense all that.Once they entered the house, his aunt made sure that Sam did not notice that she was locking the exit door so that he had no intention of trying to escape into who knows what madness he might want to commit, and then having made sure that everything was fine, she went to the kitchen, to initially prepare tea for her nephew, and also prepare dinner.Upon reaching the kitchen, Sam's aunt could see how he had been left standing, staring into nothingness, feeling as if he were completely lost fr

Little by little, Sam ended up going deeper into the forest than he wanted to have done, he walked and walked with complete naturalness, grateful that it was daytime, however, to complete his mission, Sam had to wait until nightfall, since in the midst of darkness, invocation rituals were much more easily influenced by the light of the moon.That night would be a full moon, and with his help, Sam's summoning ritual would be much more effective to finally get rid of that curse that was greatly affecting his daily life.His aunt continued to keep up with him as if she were a detective who was just centimeters away from finding the exact clue to the criminal.Finally, Sam has remained definitively still, static, as if a giant invisible hand had grabbed him tightly and had buried his entire body in the forest floor so that they couldn't get away so easily.His aunt has been looking at him while she remains silent and hidden behind the closest tree that he found to take refuge and realize

For a moment, they remained silent, and in that small moment of silence, Sam felt invaded as if by a kind of chill that had appeared suddenly.Sam has asked himself: His job as a night guard is now what has caused him to start experiencing these types of situations, and now that he has come to his aunt's house to ask for help because she knows about these things, this kind of what curse has he been able to have now attached himself to his aunt's house with his stay there?Suddenly, that crazy idea began to gain strength in his mind, not wanting to leave him in peace and quiet until he had to do something so that his aunt would not be the next victim in this big problem.“Look, aunt, I think it will be better if I take care of solving this problem alone, I know that you are a medium, I know that you can help me, but I need someone professional, someone more expert in these matters, besides, I don't want to involve you with this, and I feel like I'm already doing it, because your house

Immediately, just having seen it, Sam covers his eyes with his hands, signaling to his aunt that he did not want to see what was happening on the computer screen in front of his eyes, likewise, he turned his gaze away, avoiding wanting to focus on the computer at that moment.But his aunt was the only one who continued staring at the mini screens organized within the surveillance program on her computer. Her gaze gave the impression of wanting to analyze everything in great detail to understand well and seek a quick solution. However, as soon as that evil entity appears in front of Sam, suddenly, the computer turned off out of nowhere. It was strange, Sam and his aunt thought it was a power outage, but in that area, it was very rare for the power to go out like that, Sam and his aunt were shocked by the situation, both So, Sam's aunt began desperately pressing the on and off button on the computer, but none of it worked.“Aunt, calm down, there must have been some serious blackout an

The next morning, Sam hears a woman's voice begin to speak to him, wanting to call him by name, he is lying on the floor, in a fetal position, and he even finds himself sucking one of his fingers in his mouth just as he would a baby to fall asleep.Sam's breathing was labored, he is scared, uneasy, but he didn't know exactly how he had managed to get him to rest in just a couple of hours.Quickly, Sam opened his eyes, finding his aunt's gaze boring into his eyes.“Sam?” Are you OK? What happened to you? Why have you slept like this all night? Why is the bed unmade and why are you sucking your thumb like a baby?” Sam's aunt asked, feeling increasingly worried about her nephew.Immediately, as if it had happened by his own inertia, Sam stands up from the ground, placing his knees on the ground, and helping himself with his momentum to stand firmly. Sam was in some kind of shock, the truth was that he didn't know what to say to his aunt.“Aunt... I... I just don't know how to explain it,

"That? Did you stay silent? "Does that mean you're accepting that you're useless and worthless and that no one will believe that you're some kind of superhero now?" Marcus mocked me.I turn to look at my followers, they all nod their heads, looking at me seriously, and without saying anything to them, they seem to have realized my intentions, they realized what I was thinking at that moment, and then, I decided to do it.Soon, the robotic female voice spoke to me again inside my head, it told me to whisper the word “Fly” and then, as soon as I spoke to myself to say the word as I should, I witnessed seeing how my body begins to levitate in the air, as if I had some kind of invisible wings on my back that allowed me to do this with such skill that it seemed that I was already an expert in flight.My followers looked at me amazed, amazed, because every time I used my system it was as if, for them, I were a wonderful God who could do everything.I looked at the bullies, and they were loo

That's when I focused on expanding my vision through the situation scanner that my system activated, trying to get more details about what these shadows meant. Suddenly, information began to flow more clearly in my mind: the shadows and noises we heard were the presence of more people, but they weren't just any kind of people. They were survivors, just like the boys and I were, but their attitude was completely different, they looked threatening, they didn't seem to have any desire to approach us just so that we could form an alliance and I could continue with my mission of taking them to the new world to be part of it.“They are survivors, but they don't seem friendly, and they don't seem like they want to join us either. “Guys, keep your guard,” I warned my group, while instinctively adjusting my body to a better position where I could have a very good view of the figures moving in the gloom.Soon, the shadows of these strangers approached closer to our location, revealing a mixture

The night moves slowly for the rest of us. We all settled in a corner of the building, right on the first floor because it was completely dark, and it helped us take refuge from whatever might be out there. We stayed close to each other, as if we were trying to cover each other's backs. Hanna was the first of us to fall asleep the fastest. Then she was followed by Jason, and then Jackson.For my part, I stared at the wall on my side. As much as I tried to want to sleep, it was impossible for me to do so. I close my eyes, tried to clear my mind of thoughts that are irrelevant, and still, I can't sleep as I expected.Why could it be that he couldn't fall asleep as easily as the others did? I didn't know. I couldn't find a sure answer for it.In the midst of the silence that accompanied us that night, there was the occasional creak that the structure of the battered building would soon be about to collapse, I only hoped that soon would not be now while we are here, taking refuge inside i

I begin to walk with determination, ready to enter the city that is engulfed in flames. With every step I take, I feel how the ground of the earth shakes uncontrollably, and I can see how the cracks extend in various directions as if they were veins of an earth that has been wounded. As I move forward, I remember the abilities that the mysterious system has given me, and in my mind, I begin to want to figure out which of these abilities could be the most useful for me in this very decisive moment in life where there is a race against the clock to survive. As I got closer to the burning city, I realized that the flames were devouring adjacent buildings and constructions, the smoke was further darkening the gloomy sky. As I went further into the city, I heard that around me, there were very distant screams and cries of people who perhaps were suffering to survive, at least, although it was painful to say it, at least, there was hope that there were survivors, and if there were many, it

Before the voice could continue telling us what to do, Sasha broke the silence that had accompanied us for a moment.“Henry, do you really think we can handle this? I mean, we're just a couple of kids, and this world is completely new and different for us. "Where we come from, everything was already built, but now, we have to start a life from scratch, a new life.""Yeah. I know that very well, everything here is very different. I know you're scared, I am too. But we have to see the positive side of this; Let's accept our destiny, that if it is crossing our path, it is for a reason. Don't you think?” I responded to Sasha, trying to make my words sound convincing enough to her.Sasha nodded, her expression now changing to one with more determination, feeling more confident in accepting what fate was preparing for us."Understood. But, I still don't understand, what will be our role in this new world? What does this voice expect from us by appointing us as guardians?”Then, the voice se

Soon, in the early morning hours, when I finally thought I had managed to fall asleep to rest, the countdown in my mind reached 95%, the woman's robotic voice continued speaking to me to announce the countdown in my head. For a moment I thought she was actually about to drive me crazy.I tried to focus my mind on something else, like sleeping, but it was impossible to do so, because uncertainty was becoming my worst enemy now. Sasha seems to have noticed my nerves, my restlessness, and then she stopped sleeping to turn around because for all that moment, she had been trying to sleep while her back was turned to me, and she was looking at the other side of the room, and she stopped doing it only to turn around, come closer to me, and hug her so that I could lean on her and try to find that peace of mind that I need while we realized what was happening with my body.We stayed hugging and in silence, waiting for the night to end, I think it must have been after three in the morning, sinc
