Chapter 1 - The Start Of A Story

'I often ask my self,

"Who am I? Do I really know my self? What's my dream? Do I even have a dream?",

but I never got an answer, that is, till "it" happened.'

Ring Ring Ring Ring~

The sound of the alarm clock.

Knock Knock, someone is knocking at a door, a girl shouts,

"Bro! It's already time for school, wake up and eat breakfast aldready!".

A boy yawned and turned off the alarm clock, "Yeah sis! I'll be there in a minute..."

'I'm Yotema Jaemyung,

"Jae" means ability and "myung" means bright,

My parents named me this weird, unique name because they wanted me to grow as a confident and righteous person,

I'm 16 years old and a second year at Manila Integrated Highschool at the Philippines.

My Mother was born in Philippines while my Father is born in Korea making me a Kopino, half korea, half filipino.'

"Dad, Mom, we'll be on our way to school",

Ji said while smiling.

Ji and Jae took their parents' hand to gently touch their forehead, this is a culture of the Philippines called 'mano'.

"Take care and don't forget to eat your lunches, i love you both" his mother said while gently smiling,

"Will do mom, I love you too." Ji and Jae replied.

The siblings are now walking on their way to school,

"Hey bro, I've been thinking..."

Ji said while rubbing her chin,

"What is it sis?"

Jae replied looking at ji with curiosity,

"When will you get a girlfriend bro? Even though you're look is average, not good in studies, a loner with one or two friends, there should still be something charming about you right?"

Ji said looking worried,

"...."

Jae just looking at Ji with the eyes of someone who got stabbed a thousand times

'That hurts.'

Time goes by and they're already in their own classroom,

"Goodmorning Class"

Jae's teacher said,

"Goodmorning, sir!",

the class replied.

_____

"Allright class, thats it for today, eat your lunch and wait for your next teacher!"

Jae is about to get his lunch but were interrupted by three of his classmates namely Kurt, Ren and Cain.

"Hey Yotema, you Kopino bastard, why are you getting your lunch? Did I order you to do that?"

Cain said while looking at Jae with fierceful eyes,

"And why do I have to follow your order? You maggo-",

before Jae could finish his word, a fist was already sent flying at his face,

Jae was sent flying, landing his back on the locker.

"Urgh!"

Jae's body, aching from the impact made him unable to stand up while his hands are shaking,

and his sight getting blurry from the powerful punch.

"You bastard! I dare you to say that again!"

Cain said while clenching his teeth and stomping Jae in the back that made him lie on the floor,

but Cain didn't stop, and even started kicking him.

The class was just laughing at Jae, not caring wether he dies or not from getting beat up so hard,

well, except for one, Jae's bestfriend, Jacob.

"Hey C-Cain, you b-bastard! Stop it, Jae might re-really die at this point!",

Jacob said while trembing,

"So what if he dies? Huh? Die for him then, you twerp?"

Cain walked to Jacob and punched him on the face, sending jacob flying and landing on the tables,

and then Cain walked away, looking pissed.

Jacob stands up and walked to Jae to help him stand,

"You okay man? Those bastards, urgh!, I wish I can beat them up!"

Jacob said while clenching his fist,

" I'm fine, you shouldn't have done that, but thanks."

Jae said, smiling gently.

Time flies and school is already over,

Ji is waiting at the gate for Jae.

"What happened bro? You look like a mess, did you get beat up? Is someone bullying you?"

Ji woriedly ask,

"I just tripped and fall at the stairs, nothing serious, really, I'll be fine with a day of rest! You're big bro is really tough after all!"

Jae said while faintly smiling. Jae is a cold person, rarely interacting with other people, except that he's really cheerful around his loved ones.

The siblings are heading home when Ji noticed that the sky looks weird.

"Hey bro, look at the sky, doesn't it look weird?"

Ji curiously ask.

"The sky looks a bit greenish right?"

She added.

"Now that you said that, it indeed looks weird, maybe some zombies will appear and bite you sis, rawr! HAHAHAHA!"

Jae jokingly said.

"Stop it bro! its not funny..."

Ji said while pouting,

Jae apologized and saw someone familliar in front of them.

"Hey bro, isn't that Jacob? Your bestfriend?"

She added, Jae is calling Jacob but weirdly, jacob's not moving, at all.

Jae slowly walked to Jacob, he pulled jacob's shoulder to face him, but what he saw was not his bestfriend, but a nightmare.

Some of Jacob's skin are starting to become silver, his eyes are white, and his veins are growing and changing color becoming red. Bloods are starting to come out from his ears, nose, eyes and mouth.

The shock of seeing his bestfriend, jacob, no, this horrifying nightmare made jae tremble,

"S-S-Si-Sis, run... run now while t-this monster is not moving!.."

Jae said while trembling.

Jae, not hearing Ji's respones, he turnes his head to look at her, he saw Ji, trembling and slso spaced out, probably due to the shock.

Jae pulled Ji's hand and ran.

Jae was deep in thoughts,

'Whats happening? Was that really jacob? Why do jacob looks like that? This can't be real right? Please tell me its not real!'

While on their way back home, they saw a lot of nightmare like creatures.

And finally, they saw their home, but by then, the monsters are already moving,

and just their luck, a monster, up to 6 feet with red bloodshot eyes,

its pointy feet that looks like a lance, making holes in the ground as it walks,

its shark-like teeth and its silver, metal looking skin with sharp, long nails that looks like a creature straight from hell,

is in front of their house.

Ji finally came back to her senses, but Ji did a phenomenon called late reaction, causing her to shout,

"Kyaaaaaa!!!"

This led them to get the lance-feet monster's reaction,

Jae nervously laugh.

"Ha-haha..."
