Chapter 10

*Ground explodes violently*

Suddenly, dark hideous creatures and unknown lifeforms swarm out from all sides of the swirling smoke.

*Soldiers start to scream in panic*

Monsterous looking creatures of all sizes started to disperse in the area.

Some of them had a weird sharp like object sticking out of its body.

Meanwhile the other creatures, were too horrifying to describe.

The smaller creatures looked like bugs for some and the rest were unexplainably scary.

The started to crawl on the ground.

Some of the bugs were the size of a human head having weird body shapes.

When the head sized bugs struck the ground, they shattered, releasing more strange looking bugs.

Dark clouds suddenly form in the sky and heavy rain starts to fall.

*Soldiers all fearing their lives, start shooting their weapons towards the swarm.

But everytime they did, it seemed like the attacks were engulfed straight by their darkness.

*Then, out of nowhere, a creatures leaps and latches onto a soldier*

The soldier screams and shoots at himself trying to kill the creature locked onto him.

*Unknown spray of gas explodes*

*Then all the soldiers start to cough trying to breath out whatever the hell they just breathed in*

"GAS MASKS!!" Screamed the captain

*Suddenly, the majority of soldiers start to drop unconscious*

The rest of the soldiers that managed to put on their gas masks, started to loose their balance and synchronisation.

Some of the soldiers started to duck under and take shelter using the fallen soldiers.

While some started to run away and the others continued shooting.

*Scene of absolute chaos*

*Then, a few fallen soldiers then start to get back up*

"Ren!" Screamed one of the soldiers

The soldier ran towards Ren who just got up after falling unconscious.

*No response*

Ren and the few other soldiers who got back up starting to act strangely.

Eerily, all of them stood frozen in position without moving an inch

Then horrifyingly, all their eyes turn black.

"Ren can you hear me !?" Screamed the same soldier now slowly starting to back away in fear.

*Ren turns his head instantly towards the soldier*

"RUNNN!!" Scream the soldiers nearby

*Then, a scary face mixed of misery and fear appears on ren*

"What the-

Ren what's happened to you..."

The soldier started to shiver heavily.

*Graphic scene appears next of the soldier's carcass*

All the soldiers nearby stood frozen in shock.

In an instant, Ren had killed his crewmate.

Ren had shot his weapon so fast that none of the soldiers had a chance to react to it or see it coming.

The soldiers then all realised...

The strange gases that was released, caused a change into the mental state of the soldiers who breathed it in.

The strange gas had made the vitcims start to drop unconscious and then wake up to loosing their minds or hallucinations.

What some of these soldiers were now seeing with their eyes, were visions of friends and family.

But not just any visions, in these visions, they were witnessing there own family and friends mocking, beating and trying to kill them.

This was the reason why Ren had killed his crew member so fast, he was trying to save his life by the hallucination of his friend trying to kill him.

*Bugs attacking soldiers latch onto their heads*

From what it seemed, the bugs looked like they specifically release a chemical gas into the victim.

Then, those released chemicals start to affect the brain into imagining fearful, life-threatening, or painful situations.

Some of them, landed on the nape of the neck and burrowed into the spinal column of the soldiers, absorbing them of all blood and nutrients.

*Scene of soldiers dying with crippling wrinkly skin and whilst running or hiding*

The swarm quickly took control of the atmosphere.

Some convincing the soldiers of a living hell, and some draining the life out of the soldiers.

*Soldiers all start to panic more and spread out across the land, into the forest, and away from the swarm.

Suddenly, the bugs start to coat the land like the air, into one massive unending mantle of swirling blackness.

*Scene of the bigger creatures starting to chase soldiers*

*Attacked soldiers die instantly*

Even though the soldiers had strong weapons and protection, the bugs had such thick strange coating and lethal attacks, that it left the soldiers no match for them.

*Scene focuses on a soldier receiving a broken radio transmission through this armour*

Some of the cremates who had managed to flee the area, started to send a transmition to remaining soldiers still in the contact area.

With the transmition only screaming "RUN", the soldier who received the transmission, looked around in horror.

Now realising the dangerous reality, the soldier is forced to take two options.

Either run away and join the survivors, or save the remaining men and fight back...

*Scene ends with soldier hiding behind a tree with the nightmare of creatures swarming behind him*
