Chapter 2 - Hero or Killer

When I was a child, my local priest once told me

"Do not fear of God's punishment, Lukas. Even in His anger, there is love, even in His punishment, there is a gift, even in death... there is life" 

A god who offers love as much as hate? maybe that's why I never understand how can be someone loyal to a god when he doesn't purely loves His creations... I realised I fell to my toughts... what I was doing? 

"Lukas, get up!" 

Ahh, yes... I shot Morela... her blood pours on my shoulder, warm and sticky. Horrible smell, Horrible feeling...

"Lukas!" 

I realized... I killed someone.

"Lukas!" I looked up to William with my eyes shot open "William?" William picked me up "We need to get the fuck out of here... I do- I don't know what the fuck..! is happening but we need to get out and tell this to others" I looked around I saw Morela and Vilnius on the ground, both dead hopefully... After looking at both dead bodies for another second I opened the door and we start walking. I never realized how silent the town is today like everyone is, dead...

"Do you know where, Evelina, could be?" I don't know the last time I was worried this much about anyone but I had a feeling... Morela and Vilnius they are.

"They said they are going back to office but looking at the time they might be on the lunch time" I looked at the time and realised it is four P.M "Yeah it is lunch break, at least we know where to go" 

after 40 minutes of running we made it to the place where our group wents to eat every time, I opened the door "Evelina! Guys!" I shouted but no respond. "Guys we need to leave now" William also shouted. For some reason the entire shop is looking empty but it doesn't feel like it, I hold my gun and start walking to the stairs "Guys if yall can hear me this aint no joke just come out... something very fucked up is going on" me and William already realised something is not normal and now not only we are afraid for our friends we started to fear for our own lives too, before I start to walk through stairs, William hold my shoulder it scared me a little but the thing, William, was looking was even scarier. A woman, was holding a cup drinking something at first me and William didn't realised but then we saw... someone's eye fell through the cup, the woman went down, picked up the eye. "Don't mind me, Gentleman." she said and started to suck the eye. I pulled my gun to point her but William hold me "Lukas, no! she... looks so normal" the way William said it made my fear turn into anger and I responded with fear and anger "Normal!? that fucker is no way near normal she is fucking sucking someone's eye... a god damn eye" William looked at me with fear "I know... but a part of me says it's still human, look at her she looks disgusted" I looked at her and she is actually disgusted and crying? After a bit I got tired of looking at someone eating an eye "We need to go upstairs William and then arrest these... things" William nods and we started to go up the stairs. 

While we slowly going up I could feel the fear, also while I get to think that I killed someone... what if she was also 'normal' like William said to the girl we saw now? did I just killed a predator... or a victim? also with my shot William was also forced to kill Vilnius... is he alright? is it good time to ask? will I ever get a chance to ask? 

We get up to second floor and every table was empty but one was full with tons of people trying to sit on it some standing at the side. I pulled my gun "Police! show me your hands all of you" after I shouted all the people looked back and hold their hands up but for some reason they still hide the table "What you guys are hiding?" I yelled and pulled one to the side

and... I saw... 

Sander... I saw Sander's lifeless body, worst part is that there is no blood... like they just sucked out of his life. 

Only thing I could do at that moment was to look at my friend one last time because I know I was in the middle of these monsters and I know... I am nex-

"Lukas! careful" William grabbed me and pulled me away, for a moment I thought I was dying and I was right these things tried to attack me next before I could think of anything me and William started to shoot. One by one they fell, some even started to scream of fear but at that moment we lost our own thing that make us human...

We lost our ability to have thoughts, we didn't think anything. Why they did this? how they did this? what reason? we didn't think about anything and just emptied all of our clip on them, killing all.

Today we become nothing but killers but for some we become a Hero. 

we get out of the store and saw a multiple police cars coming out one of them was Evelina's car. Evelina get out of her car and hugged me meanwhile rest of the officers entered the building. 

the only thing I could've asked was already asked by William 

"Why you all left Sander's there Evelina? What happened..? Sander... he-" Evelina looked down and replied

"I will explain everything"
