==It was just... Inhuman...==
Shit! Missed the bus again, come on!

It's already 11:30, and I can't wait for the bus to come anymore, a cold breeze hits me, lacking the leather jacket I left at my workplace, I'm freezing.

I don't even know what to do now, the bus has stopped going and all I have is 10 dollars and some little change from that coke can I bought an hour ago, It's really dark in the alley, I see some punks in the corner, better not to mess in, what should I do?

I remember that I have that Taxi service on my phone, why shouldn't I give it a go?

'''Hello ?'''

'' - Hello, my name is Katie, this is Taxi 24/7, how may I help you?''

'''Yes, hello Katie, may I get a Taxi please? 53 Kennedy Street.'''

'' - Sure sir! As soon as one of our cabs will be free, we will come pick you up!''

'''Listen, Kate, It's almost midnight, I'm freezing from cold and I'll almost freeze to death, can you speed this up?                                                  '''

'' - I'm sorry sir, but today is a messy and heavy day, we can't do anything about it, your Taxi will arrive approximately in 30 minutes.''



God fucking damnit! I can't wait 30 minutes, although I have no choice, I'll just go back to my workplace and get my jacket. I am working and managing a computer tech store that fixes computers, no much to detail here, only a 100 meter walk, could use one, why not, Today my ass was glued to my chair all day so I could stretch those leg muscles

As I was approaching the shop I was hearing noises, like... someone was there watching me, I briefly looked around my surroundings to check things out, only to find a cat digging in a trash can.

PHEW, I thought to myself, I thought I was getting mugged by those punks at that other street, guess I had my luck!

As I entered the shop, a cold aura surrounded me, yet something picked my mind



Something is not right



As I looked at the window I saw near the bus stop, a figure, it was not human like, more like a... tall slim body with glowing white eyes

He stared at me

" HOLY SHIT ! " I screamed, almost fainting I got my leather jacket and left at the back door of the shop.

Out of adrenaline and fear I ran as fast as I could like a survivor trying to find civilazation or any contact with normal human beings, I don't know how much I ran, 200 meters? 300 perhaps? I couldn't count the time, I was rushing as fast as I could.

Finally I got to the mall, the entrance guard looked at me in a confused way.

 ''- What the hell happend to you?!''

Speechless, I had no idea what to say, as I went down the street the guard stared at me in a shocked way, curious to know what in the world happend to me.



''What the fuck was that?! ''I kept asking myself, after many creeped out thoughts I eventually decided that It was a hallucination caused by the cold and the psychological circumstances that I was in, cold, isolated area.

As I calmed my beating heart, I looked at my watch, 00:30

''Damnit I missed my ride!'' I thought to myself, I called the same number I dialed an hour ago and waited



'' - Hello, my name is Katie, this is Taxi 24/7, how may I help you?''

'''Hi there again, may I know where is my ride?'''

''- What street was it designated to ?''

'''53 Kennedy Street'''

''' '''''- Our Taxi came to that address, but no one was there, would you like to order another one?''

'' ''I was tired, I couldn't walk to my home right now, I didn't know what to do, guess I had no choice ?

'''Fine,  send one for my way'''

''- No problem sir, what address ?''

I was trying to look for a street address on one of the houses but I couldn't find it,

'''Hold on '''

I went to the mall and asked the guard what is the address of this street

'''Yes hello?'''

''- I'm still here.''

'''21 Washington street'''

''Your Taxi will be there in 15 minutes ! ''

15 minutes? Well that is certinally better than the last time, and I'm near a mall too, I should probably go for a coffee

'''Mall is closed, no entry pass this point sir. '''Said the guard.

What?! How can that be ?! It was open 5 minutes ago...?

'''Due to technical issues it's closing now, sorry sir, but you can't enter '''



Are you shitting me? Now what do I do?

I saw a faint light at the end of the street, perhaps it's an all day operating mini market?

As I was getting closer, I heard noises, the same noises I heard before, I was getting paranoid, and I rushed to the end of the street.

The light I saw was gone, although there is a minimarket there, but it was closed, I got closer to the window and stared, I heard a rumbling sound comming from the inside of the shop and a black figure.

As scared and curious I was, I backed up a bit and still kept looking, I hear a sound from the alley nearby, as I turned my head to find nothing at all, and then looked at the shop, the same figure I saw before appeard, only I saw it's face, it was... horrible, the face was like a hybrid of a mutilated human, only mixed with something... unknown, it stared at me just like before, it stared into my eyes, into my soul, like it knew who I am, I was paralyzed, unable to make a move nor a sound, it was there, still staring at me. After that shock I immediately ran towards the police station, I ran and ran, almost without any energy, I fainted.



''Where... where am I ?''

I woke up in a hospital, I saw an IV attached to my vein

''He woke up!''

'' - Hi there, I'm Ashley, your personal doctor, it seems you have awaken huh?''

'''Yeah... what happend ? ''' I said out of confusion

''- You blacked out due to dehydration and loss of energy, to your luck you are and will be perfectly fine ! ''

'''That's... that's great, but I'm tired...'''

''- No worries sir, I'll turn off the lights, have a peaceful night''

I looked at the clock on the wall, 3:30 AM, wow, did I really faint? I guess that figure was hallunations after all...

As I stared at the dark street outside the hospital, I saw it, I couldn't belive it, it's... that thing

After that I fainted again, only to be awaken at the morning by my mother

''Oh dear are you okay?''

'''I'm fine mom...'''

''God bless you, I was worried sick!''

'' -Ms. Hengstenberg, visiting time is over''

''Take care, dear...''

Oh poor ma, she's worried like hell, as I awoke I saw a letter near my bed, It read : You got lucky... but not for long

After I read it I had a sharp pain in my heart, almost like it bursted, I blacked out again only to find myself at an operating table, looking up at the light and seeing that figure

''Sweet dreams, John ''

''John Hengstenberg was found dead the next day, cause of death is unknown, but autopsy revealed it may be linked to brain tumour and high blood pressure''
