You, Smith, and Lewis were once nothing more than three ordinary teenagers— three tiny dots on a map far too vast to comprehend. You lived your days like a soft afternoon wind: slow, warm, harmless.

You laughed beneath the pale glow of hallway lights, swept time away with trivial conversations, and spent your youth as if it would never run out.

Your lives were clean pages in an untouched book— until black ink splattered across them without warning.

That afternoon, the sun hung directly above the school, like a giant unblinking eye watching everything below. Birds perched on the roof, the wind drifted lazily, and everything felt so… unbearably normal.

You sat beneath the big tree near the gym. Its leaves swayed gently, as if eavesdropping on your jokes.

“So, what are we doing after school?” Smith asked, his lazy tone floating like a feather. “Anything, as long as it’s not studying,” you replied, casting a glance at Lewis. Lewis smiled— a thin line of light breaking through a thick cloud.

Then the world cracked.

The first scream sounded like glass shattering in the distance— fragile, faint, almost unreal. But the second scream came closer, sharper, like nails dragging against a steel door.

Within seconds, the peaceful school day turned into a shifting shadow that swallowed everything whole.

You all ran toward the main corridor. Sunlight spilled through the windows, stretching across the floor like long prison bars.

And there, you saw it.

Your teacher— the same one who scolded students for messy uniforms— stumbled out of a classroom with blood trailing down her neck. Her eyes were hollow, her lips trembling like a broken puppet.

She fell. Then rose again. Slowly, like the night creeping in to devour the last trace of daylight.

“This… this isn’t human anymore,” Smith whispered, his voice cracking like torn paper.

More screams followed— layered, crashing, like storm waves slamming against the shore. Doors rattled from the inside, shadows moved unnaturally behind frosted glass.

Your world, once peaceful, once simple, shattered in a single blink.

And there you stood— three friends caught in the ruins, holding onto the fragile threads of a friendship that suddenly had to survive the end of everything.
