tonight I have another one of those stories for you which simply can't be explained any attempt I make to introduce it would be meaningless or it would give away the entire story so hi how you doing this is my introduction for today's video well once you've listened you'll think well that's extremely reminiscent of from a TV show from the past decade one of my favorite TV shows which um also served as interesting allegory for what's going on in real life moments anyway enough of this bizarre introduction this story really struck a chord with me and I hope it does the same for you so in what to do Muriel sit back and relax with your favorite drink because it's time to listen I don't have long left they're coming for me and it's only a matter of time before they find me I'm sitting here in this abandoned Shack I found in the woods using only the shafts of moon lights that's coming through the broken windows to write this I know that this will be the last chance I get to warn him to tell them to find safety and hide hide I never thought in a thousand years that I would ever think to use his word for myself I can barely write this my hands are shaking so violently the blood off of my fingers is staining the paper as I try to write I'm sorry I'm so sorry that it's come to this but I have to hide like some kind of animal they're all dead my friends my comrades jess was the first to go they caught her as we were leaving the old male back in town I don't know how they found out that we were staying but he did we were packing taking as much as each of us could carry on at my we heard them break through the front doors of the milk they're booted steps echoing through the empty building as they ran looking for us we grabbed what we had and ran for the roof but Jess forgot something a locket was some shit I told her to leave it we'd come back for a night but she couldn't leave Jess had told me once about the locket was a gift from another life from a time she wouldn't never forget a lover lost a war I wasn't surprised that she wouldn't leave it but I still try to beg her to come with us but it wasn't worth it the others tried to tell her as well but they were the ones who told me to believe her they're the ones who told me that we needed to run and it just dies the rain as we went across the roof we could barely hear those first gunshots hood below rumble of thunder above us the first screams still echo in my ears I can hear them as if they were still around me the screams made my skin crawl the air filling with the sounds of death and then silence the four of us was scaling down the ladders when the silence filled her ears the deafening sound we all stopped we shouldn't have stopped though we did Luke was on the ground already he was always the fastest out of the five of us he was looking up at the roof just as we were Zack was beneath me on the ladder Abbey was above me frozen as she waited I should have known she'd have caught the roof for Jess she should never have caught out after he might have gotten away if she hadn't there was only seconds after Abbey had caught out but we saw the black figure look over the edge of the roof and I know my eyes went wide just like the others that black menacing figure I'd had so many tales of black dogs being omens or black cats and Ravens and crows but I had never felt as afraid I had right then when I was staring up at the faceless black figure stared back at us it was Zach that finally broke the silence he yelled for us to jump and run we were still half way of the building on the ladders and looking down I remember seeing Luke shouting up at us I couldn't hear what he was yelling the gunshots were too loud around I didn't get a chance to jump Zach grabbed my ankle and tugged me hard forcing me to release the prongs of the ladder ABI had already jumped off to the side of where she'd be hurling herself to the ground below she had always been able to make these kind of jumps with such precision and beauty she'd been a dancer once a long time girl she landed almost naturally on the ground below rolling a few feet before standing up and grabbing at Luke trying to pull him with her telling him we'd catch up I felt the ground before I saw it my body bounced against the heart cement and I felt my knees and palms scrape against its rough surface Zach Lowe was there with me grabbing me up and pulling me to my feet Luke was around us trying to get us to move it was all happening so fast I remember briefly looking back at the mills roof and seeing eight black figures now all of them shooting towards us but we were faster than they were anticipated we weren't Jes we weren't reckless and rushing in blindly like she had the next thing I knew the four of us were running down the alley between the old general store and the flyest Zack brought me here once it was one of the only places in this small town that sold our favorite branded drink it had been back when I'd first met him after I'd wandered into the town I remember that day like it was yesterday his dark hair and that's a fireman colored eyes he was dashing and polite but so mysterious I'd been so thirsty from wandering through the woods that surrounded the town so hungry I still don't know how the four of us managed to get away from the mill but we knew that it hadn't been without sacrifice none of us talked about Jess none of us questioned if she'd catch up or where she could be it was like all four of us knew the answer without asking it around I knew there was no way she'd gotten out of there alive they'd killed her just like they'd kill us if they caught us Luke was the first one to speak as we ran across Main Street leading us into the old movie dude he said what we all knew we had to leave to run as fast as we could get out of there he told us of a sanctuary a place where we'd be all safe st. Louis I'd never been there before but I knew that it was at least an hour and a half away from our little town of her Zach asked him how we'd possibly make it and Luke just told him we'd figure it out I almost felt as if maybe Luke knew what was to come but was just too afraid to tell us Abbey was already checking the theater making sure that we were safe at least for a few months she was the quietest of us all so she always was the first to volunteer to go scout around if we needed it when she came back though none of us were ready for the look on her face she had no color on her face which was saying something due to how light turned she already was she told us we couldn't stay here but of course when Luke asked her why and she wouldn't answer he pushed her out of the way and walked into theater number one I shouldn't have followed I should have listened to Zach when he told me to stay with Abbey my hand shot to my face immediately after walking into the darkroom I covered my mouth and my nose the smell of blood was so overwhelming that it made my stomach lurch inter at least 15 people all of them dead there were bullet casings covering the floors and the bodies were just thrown across the chairs and in the aisles Zack told me later that this was where they delivered everyone at first that this was how he got so many of his down so quickly I still didn't understand what was going on but I was too afraid to ask Abby came running into the theater room shortly after telling us we had to leave right then we didn't ask questions we didn't need to Zack ran to the back of the theater back past the screen and pushed open the door to the back alley we ran we had to we left our temporary hiding place and ran back out into the rain that was now pouring down from the sky like buckets or being dumped down on top of us we had to run for the forest to where we had constant cover and safety but that was at least eight blocks away in either direction you were almost in the center of town Luke thought we should head towards where the bus station was back on the east side of town it made the most sense because st. Louis was east of here but Zack thought it would be too obvious but they'd probably be waiting for us and the rows most likely had roadblocks by now but it was tabi who thought much differently she'd been so quiet this entire time but finally she said we needed to go back for Jess Zack just looked at her Luke bluntly said no Abby though wasn't going to settle for that answer she started to cry well maybe that was just rain dripping down her face she asked what if jess was still alive or her too needed help the three of us knew that we couldn't go back regardless of whether she was alive or not but Abby didn't want to hear it I begged her to stop getting louder but soon she was shouting at us calling us monsters telling us that this was all our fault Abby said she was going back by herself that she was going to get you she kept backing up we were trying to get it to stay to calm down and think about this but just as she stepped back to where the side alley of the theater was her head jerked to the right an explosion of blood spraying from the left side of her head she made a sick groaning sound as if trying to talk and then just drop to the ground I know that I scream even though I shouldn't have because that grabbed my arm and pulled me to him and Luke began to run the opposite way down the alley east it was I was in shock I hadn't even heard the gunshots before she fell to the ground Abby and Jess were the second people I'd met when I'd come here they were in the general store buy the same brand of drinks as a Zack was buying for me they were beautiful girls and best friends they'd been friends since before they could remember and they were nearly inseparable in fact over the past numerous years I can only recall a handful of times and they've been away from what Jess had been in love with Luke but Luke liked Abby unfortunately Abby had never gotten over her last love we ran down that alley as fast as we could we didn't even look behind us we turned down this alley and then that swerving in and out of building doing the best we could to avoid the main streets we didn't see another soul until we got to where the bus station was Herrmann station was small nothing big and glamorous just a small outdoor station with kiosk where they sold the tickets it was quiet there Luke had expected to find at least a bus or two since they were normally a couple that were kept here for backup or emergencies but they have a long gone apparently they've been evacuating for a day or two before now quietly it was like they knew who they did and didn't want to say we would have to run from here make our way to st. Louis by foot Luke even grabbed a map from a nearby kiosk just so we knew where we were going and where to avoid he'd made the trip to st. Louis numerous times but this would be the first time any of us would walk there we let our guard down we'd finally thought we were free that we had our way out and that we were going to get out of there we've started walking towards the tree line to the woods and we didn't bother checking behind us we were stupid Luke heard them first those heavy combat grade boots slamming against the concrete as they ran he told us to run toward Zack to keep me safe they had their guns up and firing before I even knew what was going on I heard the bullets ricocheting from around us as Zack pulled me by my hand towards the trees I didn't dare look back at Luke I could hear the screams again just like before the male people were dying Luke was dying while we were running high as AK what was going on why this was happening I thought we had government immunity that we were safe that we could live Zack told me that the immunity was over but the newest president had thrown out the agreements and redeemed us all a threat to the nation he called us monsters he said we had no reason to be here anymore Zack told me that we were no longer safe he said that all we could do was get to st. Louis where the safe house had been built just in case anything like this had ever from that point to now sitting in this Shack it's all still a blur we'd run for quite a while then just started walking east and it started to get dark when the sound of helicopters could be heard in the distance Zack told me not to worry about it to just keep moving but I had this overwhelming feeling of dread building up inside of me we were in the middle of nowhere I had no idea where we were or which way to go Zack was leading me every step of the way and I trusted him just as I always had since the day I'd met him he was my Savior and my protector he'd recognize me the moment I dented Herman he knew that I was someone who would need to be protected he took me under his wing and did just that he introduced me to his friends took me to the mill showed me what it was like to trust and have friends again even now when his life was on the line when he knew that if he left me behind he could save himself he still protected me he taught me so much over the past noon where she is I didn't know what I would ever do without him I'd relied on him so much and now I didn't even want to think about what would happen if we were separated but we were separated after hearing those helicopters in the distance we heard the dogs then the people the men were loud as they hunted at student woods obviously not trying to hide the fact that they were close it was like a game of cat and mouse to them the hunters become the hunted when they were starting to surround us Zack hid me in some brush and told me to find the first opening and make a run for it I didn't want to I wanted to stay right there and die with him I stayed long enough to see this start at the fight they kicked him and punched and he took every hit even though I knew he could have fought back he was stalling he was saving me it took every fiber of my being to not call out for him to scream his name as I watched him taunt him and then stab him they laughed at him called him names and dared him to fight that like the others but he didn't he just looked to wars where he'd hidden me and closed his eyes I still don't know how I got out of there or even when I just know that I ran the moment they shot that first bullets I ran for what felt like hours I ran until my chest burned and my body ached I ran as fast as I possibly cooked putting as much distance as I could between me and there now I'm here hiding I can hear the helicopters now far off in the distance but I don't know where I go I am going to fight I have to it's in my nature I've already drunk my last bottle of fangs and I remember that first bottle Zack ever gave him the government had created this for us to sate our hunger so that we didn't need to feed so we could live with everyone else we worked we loved we laugh we did just as everyone else did we made names for ourselves and became citizens we didn't need to train to hunt we didn't need to fight we grew weak and civilized we were no longer monsters we weren't vampires we were just us but that's gone Abby Jess Luke Zack they're all gone their fangs is gone we are once again the monsters the creatures of the darkness I can hear the dogs near see the artificial raised from their flashlights and spotlights through the broken windows the humans have declared war they intend to eradicate and remove every last one of us this is war and I will stand and fight [Music] [Music] so anybody who is a fan of True Blood would have guessed which fish guess we should show I was talking about similar theme but I hope you didn't guess how it was going to end to see well you know I am every Monday Wednesday Friday I'm here with a new story food so hopefully you'll all join me again really soon bye for now
