1 The Beginning of Darkness (epilogue)

Hey so let get this out of the way my real name is Eric. Alright what else do you need to know? Oh yeah what the hell went so wrong, so I live in Denlin a country thats not exactly at the top of the food chain anyway. Are little country messed with a fairly larger country. Let just say dictator don't really appreciate if you tunnel out some war prisoners from there country. Anyway that country is named chukevin. Now I live in the middle of Denlin in a valley called well the big valley. Are leader weren't very creative. In the middle of the valley is my house. The big valley was the center of the blast zone of chukevin new weapon. Little did they now it would back fire. Let me explain I was just inside my house playing video games just like a normal kid. When I hear a loud whistle. "What is that?" I step outside and look straight up. There I see a little red dot falling out of the sky so I did what any kid would do in the situation. I said "f***" and bolted inside. I duck for cover and held my head and waited to die. I don't exactly remember much during the explosions. Except it felt warm not hot just warm. Like floating in a tub. Then I remember seeing something almost wrap around me. There was darkness. I can tell you how long I was in there. All I remember is it felt hard. like hard leather wrapped in an oval shape. It felt like I was in there for a life times. When I saw the first crack of light I had a wave of emotions and thoughts. "I'm not dead!!" "What happened?" Where am I?" An emotion of joy. An emotion of fear for what's nexts. When the cracked opened more and I could finally get my fingers through. It felt so good to rip that shell in two and just get out. Yet something was off. I felt bigger and taller. There was a thick black fog falling everywhere near me. Yet the weirdest thing was turning around and seeing a flash of black behind. What is that I turned around to see it but the black image I saw in the conner of my eyes dart behind me again and again. As I turned around and around I saw what was left of my house. The walls were still up but looked old, cracked, and dusty. The sun was shining through a big hole above me where my roof usually was. "That's brighter than I remember." I see a broke mirror that was on my door. I dart that way to see what been following me. Yet when I looked in the mirror I didn't see anyone. I did see some sleek, smooth, and black fold wings behind me. They dripping a black fog. I made them twitch and the fold out. My left wing hit my wall and scared me into pulling it in. Yet my right wing out stretch out long than my twice my arm. The feathers out folded to my thighs and a thick fog fell fast and didn't led up till I pulled my wing back. I stepped back to see all that I had was the shorts that I had on during the blast. I stepped back once more to hear a crunch. I looked down to see I stepped on a piece of glass. "Great last thing I need is glass in my foot." I put my foot up but there is no glass in it. I look down to see the glass is in a dust consistency. I look at my foot and grab a sharp piece of glass next to it. I close my eyes and softly run a piece of glass across my foot. Nothing no blood no pain. I do it again but push in again nothing. I even see parts of glass scrap of the tip of the glass. I then try it on my leg and arm. Nothing "hu looks like I have thought skin." I look at my arm closely after trying to cut it and see little bit of black fog fall of my arm hairs "weird." I look to see what's left only few things survived. A Swiss Army knife my dad left. A bottle of water I filled up earlier. Also I black shirt some how survived in a bag I left near my bed. I went to go put the shirt on but it didn't fit over my wings. So I grab a sharp pieces and cut two large holes from my shoulder blades to my lower back. When I put it on my wings slipped through the holes and pressed the shirt in. Almost looked like I didn't have them any more with the way they blend in with the black. The fog also die down when I clenched them so that helped. I opened what was left of my door to see there wasn't much left of my house. My room was the north east room of the house. All there was, was a sphere shape hole around my house. It looked like the epicenter of the bomb but it wasn't very big. I step outside of the area where my house was to see everything was stand just looked older and run down. I walked down my driveway to start my new life in what the survival call the "new era."
