I thought this might go a little further than the other story i wrote The Man in the Black Suit.

Why you should run

I’m running. I hear its breath. It’s further away than before now. It will catch me eventually though, because it always catches its prey. It could be after you as well. They are more of them. Though I can’t give you an exact number, all I know is that there is more than the human race combined. They can become us. They are everywhere, and anyone. From the officer that worked on your murder case, to the guy that lives next door. They could even be your dog. They get everything someday.

Humans are supposed to be immortal, but these things thrive on our existence. I can’t tell you what they actually look like, I have trouble finding words to describe the sheer horror I felt when I saw it. One thing you must know, never try to fight. They are older than the earth itself. They can kill by just a single touch. Only some people manage to record them. They usually call them some pretty famous words like Satan, The Grim Reaper or even Fallen Angel. Let me tell you a little story, no, let me tell you a fact about life. There is no heaven, no hope, no courage and no chance of survival when they are after you. You can only see them when you are supposed to die. That’s why they’re after me.

I was in a car crash and sustained some serious injury. Nonetheless I survived. I was happy, until I saw it. Now I’m on the run for my life. I better keep on running; it’s starting to get closer. I’m running again and its breathing is getting louder. I think there’s more than one. I take a hard turn left and hear the noise of claws scratching against brick. I’ve been running so long, I don’t think that this should be my life. I will eventually die anyway. This is the only way to keep them from catching everyone else. Make myself a massive target for all of them. remember one thing, if you face a near death experience, head home, grab everything that you need and run. It’s the only way out. I see a light up ahead. I reach the centre of the arena. Remember this record because this is why you should run.

News Report Excerpt from a local news agency

Note found on body. It reads:
