Hello!

Chapter 2

Diary.

Hello! I am Dr. Luka D. Reyes

I am a head researcher of a certain foundation whose name will be classified for the time being.

My date of birth is on May 5,1996 and this current year I will be turning 26. First above all else, let me tell you my life and why I became a Head Researcher

I was born on May 5,1996, though I have forgotten my birth place for certain reasons, or maybe I just gotten older, my memories are very blurred. As I much recall, The country where I was born is located somewhere in the South East Pacific. Where the choices and countries are narrowed down to Brunei, Burma (Myanmar), Cambodia, Timor-Leste, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Currently, I am conducting a study of where I was truly originated.

I have forgotten so much about my past, but so far , I did not and never forgotten my parents and siblings name. My Father is named Ryan Reyes. On January 6, 1972 he was born on the sea shore. He was a quiet kid on his teens. My father worked on a certain company. But I have not much dug into his job, All I know is that it has to do something on jewerly. He came from a poor family of fishermen and climb up to the unfair world. Even when his father is always opposing him, he never gave up to get his goals to succeed. A role model father if I say so myself.

Say so himself

He taught me all kinds of things and loved me unconditionally, its something he never experienced from his own father. Though my grandmother, my father’s mother is always supporting him, and of course me. How I miss those days when we play racing cars together.

My mother’s name is Helen Reyes, her job, I think if I recall was a marketing manager. She and my father was hired at the same time since they were together when the company announced they were hiring.

Say so herself

She, too, was born on a poor family of farmers. On March 17, 1971, she was declared healthy. All I remember that she was talkative. She said she always experienced injustice in the province parts because of her childhood, race, academic knowledge, and from where she was born. She swore to herself she will be rich, richer than anyone who discriminated her. All I know she, too was discouraged by my grandfather. My Grandpa always says to her that ‘this is the only place for the likes of them’. But she never let his feelings overtake her determination for success. And because of her determination, we , my siblings, were born on a wealthy family. A healthy and normal family, so they said. She was the one who taught me every hard work a human can experience. That is where my specialty, cooking, was awakened thanks to her.

A talkative girl plus a silent boy, a perfect couple and combination am I right? But enough of the romance stuff. I will tell their love story someday

Now unto my siblings

I was the 2nd child. The firstborn was a male and was named Timothy Reyes, and my younger, or perhaps, youngest was a female and was named Isabela Reyes. Timothy Reyes, my older brother, was born on November 5, 1994. On a certain hospital, since I do not know where was my home place, I cannot tell you where exactly he was born. He was a great and responsible older brother. Although he was a trouble maker when my parents are not looking, but a funny one. He always tends to do his responsibilities perfectly, without flaws. The one who protected me when I was bullied one time. A good older brother.

Isabela Reyes, or Bela (is what I call her) was born of October 25, 1998. She was a sweet, and caring little sister. Its all I can remember. When I command her, she always listens and obeys. That is why she is our treasure, our family’s treasure.

Those were the days when we were a family. A complete family. I want this life to go on knowing they will be on my side.

Or so I thought.

I terrible day arrived

I never imagined one day will bring so much disaster, chaos and tears to my family. A boom.

And when I meant boom, I meant a ‘literal’ boom.

On May 15 in year 2012. That was the wedding anniversary of my parents. My parents rented an open space near the mountains. To remind them their home, the mountains, and see where did they become. Relatives, Family, friends, friends of relatives, best friends, my friends, office mates and many more were invited to that day. Singing and fun were everywhere. Confetti, chocolate , cake were there. A special day. All should be happy and having fun. We were celebrating until midnight. Everybody was focusing on congratulating my parents for their strong relation ship.

Until

On the night, May 16, 2012, on 1:37 am. Something bright lit up the night sky. A star like circle caught the attention of our guests. No one cared about it. We just continued to party. I mean, it might just be a bright star, or so we thought. The star like circle was expanding, continue to grow. Everybody panic, shout and screams was all I can hear. While hugging my siblings and Parents , I noticed something strange and clear about the circle. It was not a circle, it was some kind of rocket, a missile.

I Screamed “THAT IS NOT A LIGHT! THAT IS A MISSLE!! EVERYBODY!!RUUN!!!”

We all ran, towards the exit near the mounatains

But then suddenly....

Somebody screamed in horror, a familiar voice came to mind, in the front of the crowed. I noticed my arms and father and mother was nowhere to be found. Then everybody else screamed, in horror and high pitch sounds.

I said to my brother “ Take care of Isabela!” I will look for Dad and mom in the front of the crowd”

While running, struggling going through to the crowd, I saw,

Something....

2 Entities. The one standing was very tall, it was like, 7’4 or 7’3, was eating and the second one was being eaten and torn to bits.



I was not sure what kind of entity was that, the eater. But I definitely recognized that black coat the second person is wearing.

Even I was scared, I still looked to get a clear vision.

I wished I never looked, because what I saw was a image that burned to my mind eternally. Not one day I forgot that image.

It was my father. Cold and blooded, without limbs and arms.  He was being eaten by a certain anomaly. After eating his blooded heart, he jumped to the crowd, biting off the head of my uncle. When I turn back, the scream of a traumatized women caught my sight. It was my mom. She just sat there, I ran to her telling her to get up and run. We know we will not see her husband, my father, again. We left his corpse while a flashing light again started to light up the night sky. There were a lot of star like circle growing closer and closer. Of course I recognized what they were, they were missles. As we ran and ran with my mother hoping to get away from the, whatever it is, devouring every human or being on his path. We reunited with my siblings and ran together.

But when we looked back, we saw...

The creature, chasing us with inhuman speed, it seems like he already killed the guests, others were killed by the falling missles. It arms extended grabbing my mother’s legs pulling her to it. Isabela screamed in fright, my older brother carried her in order for us to run faster, but I, decided to run back to my mother. I know I would not be a challenge to the anomaly, but it caught my mother. I will fight it even if I die. But it was too late, my mother was toured down to the throat by the black thing, and was immediately devoured due to her small size of 5’4. I cried while running back to my siblings, knowing I will be next.

But then a bright light, that was like a spotlight that showed my siblings. But, I know that was no spotlight, it was a missile flyi g towards my siblings head on.

Well look at that, me being food to an anomaly and my siblings facing head on a missle. In my mind I thought, well, this is the end of my story. I closed my eyes accepting my inevitable fate, but before I closed my eyes, my siblings are, too, closing their eyes while Isabela was crying. Then....... as I feel the cold arms of the creature wrapped my chest, a sudden sound of, a somewhat, high pitch sound and an explosion. Before I died, I thought that I know this was no ordinary missle, it was an atomic or nuclear small missile and even before it hit the ground, it vaporized my siblings leaving their organs to burst right through me. Then....

Kaboom........
