"The End" (first draft)

Screaming at the top of her lungs she yells it’s the end still confused on what’s bothering her I simply watch her menace through the house. Finally, irritated by my calmness she snatches me and drags me across the room telling me I’m crazy. Yet, I’m not the one screaming it’s the end. She brings me to the room and points outside. Thinking its some kind of joke I look but then I realize I'm wrong! Dark purple clouds twisting in swirls for as far as I can see covered the night sky. Then I see that there is a strange figure floating around. Blood red eyes, dark featureless face, Black cloak covered in blood, and teeth as sharp as a needle and as white as paper, he was truly a sight of fright! He seemed to be coming right at us and as he came closer my wife got worse. I remember this morning my wife was afraid to look into my eyes saying she simply couldn’t see the end in my eyes she couldn’t see me die. Of course, I thought she was being silly and probably just had a nightmare but now I see what she meant and too can’t look into her eyes. The figure seems to be coming closer and he looks like he’s smiling as if he knows I’m scared as if he knows what I’m thinking. Without even crashing the window he enters the room, my wife now stood there as if confused or waiting. But alas there was more to be hold and more to be foreseen he swiftly went pass me as if I didn’t exist and dug himself on my wife’s neck and as seconds went by she grew paler and now she lies on the floor dead, or so I thought. Her teeth grow white like his and its getting longer by the second and she is becoming rosy and beautiful as she was when alive. Her eyes now lie open and she is slowly rising to face me, my love is alive! I run to hug her but she simply bites my neck. At first I take it as a sign of affection but slowly I feel myself loosing blood and energy! NO! It can’t be! But it is she is now a vampire and is turning me into one. I don’t think it’s necessary to tell you what happens next for you see the world is now of undead creatures and you shall now join! Thus alas the world shall collapse as we know it and we shall have a new, more interesting world of the now called the under world but soon to be called home!

As I sit reading the letter my friend wrote to me a few weeks ago I wonder why he was talking like this and what he meant by these silly things. I now am on my way to meet him just for a visit but as I get closer to my destination I'm starting to feel queasy and awkward. Why must you do this to me? Why must you test me? Go away! Stop it! No go away! I don’t care leave me alone! Where is he? No. no. no….! I'm not crazy I can’t be crazy I got the letter he can’t be dead he's alive I know it! I'm going to his house right now! Wait where’s his house? This is the address that was on the letter! There’s nothing here!

“Excuse me, excuse me, do you know where Daniel Thompson lives?”

“Sorry sir but he left this world four years ago; he passed away in a car accident”

“That’s not possible I got this letter yesterday! Where does he live? Where’s his wife?”

“I'm sorry sir but that’s the truth and as for his wife, well he never lived for his wedding you see he was on his way to his wedding when he died. His house has been torn down to build a school now so that’s no longer there either.”

“You lie!”

Thus I'm sorry to say but this is where I must leave for now my friend awaits me at my home and he has brought his wife and I must accompany them for some while.
