(Post) Movie Review: X - Men: Days of the Future Past



Calling all geeks and nerds! Prepare to be blown away from your seats for the latest installment of Marvel’s all time infamous groups of super humans, the X – Men. After the third movie (X-Men: The Last Stand) which have been criticized by some comic book fans to be a poor adaptation of the X – Men series perhaps this year’s X – Men: Days of the Future Past will redeem the X - Men movie franchise and give us another shot of geekgasm!

Days of the Future Past is an original story from the comic book series of X – Men. The series narrates the tale of our fave mutants as they try to change a significant event in the past in order to save their race from the perils of being wipe out in the face of the earth in the future. This horrifying apocalypse of the mutant race become possible due to these machines (The Sentinels) that have only one purpose why they are built: to terminate all mutants whether they are threat or allies. Though it is inevitable that there are some major to minor difference from the original comic series, the movie is still remains true with the gist of the whole story of how Professor X and Co. change the past for a better future between humans and mutants.


The first scenes in the movie will quickly display that effect of the Sentinel Program in post -apocalyptic future as they totally dominate and destroy a small group of mutants lead by the future Kitty Pryde (Shadow Cat). Later on Kitty and the gang will meet up with Professor X, Storm and Wolverine (Cyclops and Jean are no show here for their unexpected and disappointing demise in The Last Stand). Surprisingly, another addition to the roster of our hero is the friend turn villain turn ally Magneto (Complexities is the name of the game). In order to stopped the rampage of the Sentinels, our feral friend Wolverine must go back to the past to stop Mystique from killing the scientist responsible in building the mutant destroying machines. Sounds easy? But it will not just take Wolverine’s adamantium claws to push to its limits (by the way he didn’t still possess his adamantium skeleton during the movie) but also his patience and his heart to convince the young Charles X. Xavier and Erik to join him in his seemingly impossible quest.

Quick Silver (Evan Peters) has no doubt stole the scene in the latest X-men installment with his wacky and amazing blinding speed. His role is a must to remember (though its kinda short)
As expected in any Marvel based super hero movies are the eye popping visuals and CG effects that greatly enhanced the explosive action scenes. Among that must see scenes here is the crazy and humorous trick of Quick Silver to save Wolverine, Magneto and Professor X from the rain of bullets while everyone is in slow-mo while “Time in a Bottle” is playing on the back ground! (Everyone in the theatre is laughing out loud during that part! Epic scene with an epic music is always equivalent to Classicness!) Other noteworthy scenes is Magneto’s moment where he rip apart a foot ball stadium  and let it float in the air like a flying fortress while he control all Sentinels that showers lots of mean bullets in the sky (Death from Above tactics isn’t it?). No one wonder Magneto can be the scariest villain in the X – Men universe with his superb tactics combine with metal manipulation powers (kudos to the chess games he plays with Prof. X). Sad to say, some mutants like Bishop and Blink ( she's so gorgeous by the way with his teleportation slash space bending powers) have a very short and nearly unnoticed role in movie. Majority of their appearance is strictly for action packed scenes when the Sentinel go head hunting the mutants.



Story wise, the movie I believe are more beefed up than the previous one. More conflicts make the whole movie interesting as it dig deeper into the history behind the friendship of Eric, Charles and Raven and how it end up after the story of the prequel movie X – Men First Class. We can see here a different angle on their character and how they all bear the suffering imbued in them because of the Mutant X – Gene. Expect a different side of Magneto as he shows that behind his steel heart is an enigmatic brother with a deep and zealous love for all his mutant kin as well as a near hopeless and wasted Charles X. Xavier who lamented seriously after he loss lots of his love ones ( that includes Raven and Eric in an emotional aspect). You also have to see what will happen if the future and the past Prof. X meet and greet one another (expect lots of insightful wisdom for sure!)


Of course it is a cliché to say that it all ended up nicely but prepare for a total twist that will show who will really decide the fate of the mutants before the movie reach its conclusion.


Days of the Future Past give us a fantastic ride of thrilling mutant power fest and complex story that let us have a glimpse that behind those incredible powers they possess, they are still but humans who bear both the gift and curse of having a heart and soul and responsibility that in every decision they made will affect everybody in their past or even in their future.

Inferno's Canto 143

After reading Dan Brown's Inferno and also the classic Inferno of Dante Alighieri, its a shame if i wont give my deepest gratitude to both of these superb writers. So here is a poem that basically turns the horrifying scenes of Inferno into a long journey towards a long lost love of Dante; Beatrice ( why do awesome writers have to suffer so much!?)

"Love, which quickly arrests the gentle heart,Seized him with my beautiful formThat was taken from me, in a manner which still grieves me.

I took the path towards the dark night
Into a place where soul is never beyond
the light
Underneath the pallid land
Where stars aren’t born in the sky

Here in this journey
To seek my beloved Beatrice
And find a cure for humanity
I went down to Inferno

My sight are seared
And my soul is singed
Not with the flames of hell
But because of man’s sins

But my heart still ails for Beatrice
Even if the dark night of my soul
Is upon me
We might dwell in an ethereal plane
But my love for you is still concrete and real

And so my journey will never end
Though I saw terrifying fiends
In the devil ditch of this hell
I will still coming for you my dear

For I believe there is Paradise
And tonight is the beginning of
Forever
Now that I see at the end of the path
A night sky shone brighter than any other star.

IM Mortal ( Part 2)

Sorry for the late post! Here is the final chapters of the short story i made about the P. Stone. Watch out for my movie review to X - Men: Days of Future Past^^. Memento Mori!




III.

A year after the incident, people from all walks of life begun to change rapidly. From the infinite festivity and orgies that they wallow themselves they starting to feel less and less pleasure of living. Nobody enjoys drinking, smashing things and making love since the day the whole world witness how a small pale girl meet her demise. No one shouldn’t die now but here is a lone girl who is resting now in its final place. Nobody knows who killed the girl for no one care about that day on what is killing and dying.
Many begun to question if the Philosopher Stone if it is still effective and can sustain their lives, their capriciousness and their pleasure. Critics begun to appear to bashed Dr. Flambell endlessly. Doubting his discovery which before they revere and worship more than any gods in the world. No one knows that Pandora died not because the stone failed, but Dr. Flambell is the one who really fails to become a good father and he over look the consequence of his discovery.
“The Philosopher Stone, the miraculous discovery of the great scientist Dr. Flambell has been forcedly confiscated by the people and then burn it on the streets. After years of making people living in immortality and happiness, the stone is now believed to be a fraud and many condemned it now” the reporters voice boomed in the TV as people begun to throw the Philosopher Stone in the fire and cried “We Want Death, We Want Death, We Want Death” all over again.
“If he can provide this drug or whatever, surely he has something to counter its affect. You know, just like some of the snakes who possess both lethal poison and the antidote, Dr. Flambell is surely knows the cure to immortality. That’s logic for you” said a grinning expert in the screen. Then afterwards in the screen some videos are played wherein people begun to kill themselves once again but without the laughter and joy in their face. They are attempting different suicides with desperation and urgency. There is man there who shot himself with a gun in his head twice or thrice but he didn’t die. A woman, who drinks muriatic acid, feels a burning pain inside her and then nothing happens. A man jumping from skyscrapers, a boy who is trying to drown himself in the pool, an old woman who beg a guy to ram her with his car and lastly a bearded filthy beggar who walks along the street holding a large placard which is written on it the word “ KILL ME NOW PLEASE” is flashing on the screen. The man is tearfully begging to other people who only stare at him with their own eyes in blankness and emptiness.
All of these things are now blamed to Dr. Flambell. The famed and honorable doctor is now the most despised man of all the generations. If assassination is possible then surely Dr. Flambell will never see another sunset anytime but to the dismay of everyone, nothing can harm the doctor. Not even guns or blades for he is also immortal like them.

 IV.

Sitting on his soft and velvet couch, Dr. Flambell just watch the TV with widened eyes and expressionless countenance. Today is the 3rd death anniversary of Pandora and only a lone bottle of whiskey is his only companion. His whole mansion is as empty as his heart. Nothing can be heard but the sounds from the Television set that becomes incoherent with his ears. There is nothing that Dr. Flambell can feel now. He can’t explain why this happening to him and why he can’t feel something. No pain. No love. No one.
He look around him and saw her daughter smile. He never see that girl smile and yet now finally he can’t believe that he see her again. All smiling like an innocent angel. Her smile radiates a light that is so bright yet so soft and delicate; penetrating the Dr. Flambell into his soul. It sears it with warmth and burns it with such a feeling that the doctor had never felt. A feeling of redemption.

V.


Millions and millions of boxes are inside the 200 feet tall skyscraper wherein all this misery begun and tonight everything will also end right here. The skyscraper is now stripped out, all the gold inside and outside it are all removed. This night, Dr. Flambell will show to them that everything can be ended. Mortality is finally not a certainty but a possibility.
Dr. Flambell begun to pour the last gallons of gasoline in the same spot wherein he announced that he finally found the Philosopher Stone and how he will reproduce it. Perhaps it’s the inner child within him that makes him seek that stone, the endless curiosity didn’t pay well. What’s worse is that his curiosity didn’t kill him, though he admitted that inside he has been already dead, even before the time he discovered the stone. Even before he met Pandora, before he met his hope.
Click! His lighter blaze with a yellow flame that flickers in the darkness. Dr. Flambell look up and see again Pandora’s smile. It’s inviting him now to a new place where bliss is real and happiness came from the heart and not from a stone. The real paradise where everyone should belong. He smiled and in instant he dropped his lighter.
At the moment the flame taste the gas below, fire like tidal waves begun to spread around. From the ground floor then within a minute it covers up to the uppermost part of the skyscraper. The blazing fire brings forth a tremendous heat and light that extend to all parts of the city. As the people begun to see the burning skyscraper they can’t help but to feel the tears in their eyes. Everybody begun to feel a tremendous joy that they never felt since the day they begun to consume the stone. They ran towards the skyscrapers with so much happiness in their face like they finally found something that they have been looking for their entire life. Millions of people storm the building until one by one they are consumed also by fire. The fire is the secret; it is the key so that they will finally experience a new life. A rebirth. Death.

And then a loud ecstatic laughter is heard in the entire city. The fire keeps on burning and burning and burning. That night, the burning skyscraper outshines all of the stars in the sky.  It is the most beautiful thing that my eyes had laid upon and that is none other than what they call HOPE.

Im Mortal ( Part 1)

I'm always have a keen interest on the so called Philosopher's Stone and the complex myth that surround it. So for another round of inspiration from the unknown i hereby share the 1st part of my story about a world where the secret to immortality is finally revealed. Stay tune for the part 2!





" The first requisite for immortality is death."

 - Stanislaw Jerzy Lec





I.



In celebrating his 86th birthday, Dr. Allen Flambell takes a 12 inch dagger where its blade is made from pure brilliant gold. The symbol of immortality forged to become a sinister weapon. Dr. Flambell glances at the wicked blade. His reflection is can be seen as a middle age man with smooth and fair complexion. His hair is as black as ebony without any trace of silver gray hair or baldness though his eyes are in deep steel gray color with a keen sharpness of a thinker but possess a spark of a charismatic man.
Donning himself with a classic double breast red suit with elaborated golden patterns of argyle like design, Dr. Flambell grace his visitors and friends together with flashing cameras of the media men. Inside his 200 floor colossal skyscraper which is similarly coated with melted gold, people from all walks of life are eager to wait to see what kind of secret this enigmatic doctor has finally found out. As the doctor stop in front of hundreds and thousands of people, he takes a white small stone in a pocket. All eyes are glued to this man who now exhumes a certain aura of a king or perhaps he himself has finally reached something that man believes to be his ultimate destiny.
 Someone offered him a glass of wine wherein he drops the small white stone. The stone slowly dissolve as it reaches the bottom of the glass. Slowly, the wine sparkles and shimmers as if it contains countless stars that swivel around the liquid; it seems that there is a new born galaxy that emerges inside the innocuous glass. Dr. Flambell can’t help but to admire the wine inside the glass which now turns to be the most precious thing in his life not just today but forever.
“This is the key…the key to man’s wildest dream” he thought to himself. He smiled, as he drank the wine straightly. After he gives a satisfying sigh, he took the dagger and without any second thought he slit his throat. The crowd suddenly becomes silent as they witnessed something that they can’t believe with their entire eyes. Flashes of light filled the whole place like the lightning from the sky also wanted now how the most intriguing and mystical riddle that took millennium and countless ages  have finally answered by mere mortal.
After a few second, the slit in the throat of Dr. Flambell healed with no scars at all. But he isn’t done yet. He continues to slit his throat until big and multiple lacerations covered his neck. Fresh blood flow down into his suit red suit, blending it perfectly in his majestic clothes. After a second all of his wounds disappear. He loss sheer amount of blood and yet he is standing and staring at the whole crowd with his piercing eyes.
Then he chuckle, he is trying to control it but the amount of triumph in his core is too much to bear, too much for him to contain. He burst into laughter which at first sounds like laughter with an overtone of madness but as it continues, it becomes a meaningful victory laughter after an almost eternal struggle against the whole world.
That day, Dr. Allen Flambell becomes a name that defies any name in history books. His birthday is the day of his rebirth and also of mankind… That day is the day that the Philosopher Stone has been found. Immortality becomes not just a possibility but a one big fact. The New Age of man has just begun.

II.

“Look at them dear” with a soft and charming voice, Dr. Flambell tries to persuade again the 11 year old girl who is diagnosed just recently with schizophrenia. They are watching on the window of their black limousine how the people indulge in festivity with terrifying gusto. “Look at them Pandora, this how we should live, this is heaven dear” Dr. Flambell with all the patience and tenderness of a real father  he is never get tired of  convincing his beloved Pandora who still won’t taste nor drink any food seasoned with the Philosopher’s Stone. Her parents say that every time they try to feed their only daughter with the stone, the girl suddenly go into a tantrum that they can’t bear to witness. There is horror in the girls face, like someone will going to kill her every single day they try to make her take a bite of the stone. They try almost everything including forcing the girl to the point that they nearly tortured her due to their desperation. But it seems Pandora is much scared with the stone rather than the wrath and inhuman treatment of her parents.
Later on, Pandora’s parents finally give up and lose their sanity completely. They have thrown her parents to a desolated place where even their own existence will be gone forever. There are no hospitals anymore since no one is suffering from sickness and no one ever dies now. Pandora however is an exception.
Dr. Flambell adopted Pandora and treat her like her own daughter. And now there daily bonding with one another is strolling along the town, watching the people lives that have been controlled now by the stone. “Sooner or later, she will find out that she got no choice but to take a bite with it” Dr. Flambell say to himself as he watch the girl look at the window with her blank and empty stare. She is like a doll, a black haired marionette with incredibly pale complexion. She is wearing a black dress that suits her very much. Pandora might look indifferent but Dr. Flambell adores her so much and he will be most pleased if finally the girl decides to consume the Philosopher Stone.
“What do you think my dear? Do you like to be like them?” the doctor ask it a thousand times to Pandora and a thousand times he always get the same answer to the young girl: NO.
But today is different. Pandora just stays silent as her foster father asks again the question. Her eyes are glued to the scene that she saw. Countless faces who are laughing like there is no tomorrow. Boisterous laughter that echoes along with loud music where everybody dance with awful and sleazy movement. All of them are scattered around the town, all of them are making noises doing things that they don’t normally do; to satiate the innermost pleasure that their body is crying to be released before. They are not just drunk and intoxicated with alcohol; they are drunk with the pleasure of immortality. They feel that no one can stop them from doing what they want. They can destroy, ravage, hurt and make love to whoever they like because they are the kings and queens who will live forever. Even the most evil acts are permissible for they are too engrossed with total hedonism. One can murder or rape anyone including his or her own kin without any hint of shame or guilt for no one will not be hurt; only their laughter that is filled with such madness, only their eyes occupied with lust and greed and only their actions that reeking with savageness reflects in the eyes of the little girl.
Pandora watches how this seemingly harmless merriment are all but mask that permanently veiled the futility and superficiality of their existence. The people enjoy the chaos and they are devoured by it. This is not paradise. This is not the place Dr. Flambell is talking about. This is all but lie and this world is nothing but a wasteland now.
Suddenly a limping puppy begun to walk timidly just a meter behind Dr. Flambell’s limousine. Pandora shifts her sight to the little dog that is now moving towards the crowd. A group of adolescent boy spotted the dog and a crazy thought is emanated on their malicious grin as they approach it. They get closer the poor dog and surround it. The dog whimpers as he saw what the leader of the group is holding; a baseball bat surrounded with dreadful spikes on it. The boys lick their lips with anticipation as they hear the dog cry of fear which is like a delicious music to their ear.
“No…” Pandora meekly says.
“Pandora my dear please…Don’t-“
“No!” Pandora opens the limousine door and ran swiftly towards the dog. Dr. Flambell is surprised with what her daughter just did. “PANDORA!” he shouts but his voice is drown with the laughter and music that deafens the town. He ran to the direction where her daughter went but to his horror, he only saw a group of boys smashing endlessly something in the ground while giggling and laughing to one another.
“Oh come on Greg, is that your hardest hit?! You are such a puss!”
“Hahaha watch this sucker!”
The leader of the group begun to swing the spiked bat so hard that as it hit Pandora’s body, flesh starts to fly and blood splatters the face of the boy. They howl and laugh like animals feasting on their prey.
Dr. Flambell only stares and froze as he saw her beloved daughter being slaughtered by those merciless boys. He don’t understand, why would her dearest Pandora didn’t even take just a little chunks of the Philosopher Stone? If only she eat some of it, maybe this nightmare will not happen, this will not happen to her treasured Pandora.
After the boys are satisfied with slaughtering the body of Pandora they begun to noticed that Dr. Flambell is watching them.
“Hey Mr! You wanna hit her too?”
The leader of the boys throws the bat in front of the doctor. The bat is now smeared with blood from its handle up to the upper part of it. Bite size flesh are hanging along the spikes that surround its body. The boys start to leave the body of Pandora. While they are walking they give a high five with one another as if they did something that is totally remarkable and will make their parents proud.
Dr. Flambell snatches a gun in his pocket and shoots the leader of the boy. He succeed in making a headshot but the boy just scratch his head like some lice bite it and then he look at the professor and laugh.
“Nice try, Old man. Thanks to that Flambell guy and to that Stone, even guns nor blades cannot hurt us now”
One of the boys throws a stone at Dr. Flambell. It penetrates deep down to his head and then it exits it for almost a split second. The doctor didn’t flinch nor move. He just standing still like a statue there while the crowds are starting to surround the body of Pandora which is now become a heap of tattered and unrecognizable matter. Some just stared at it like it is the first time they saw something like that. A lady wearing a ripped off lingerie begun to cry and then laugh then it went crying and crying. Some begun to scream with terror but majority of them just stare at the girl.
“I-it’s impossible”
A limping puppy begun to come out of the girl’s bloodied arms. The little dog still whimpers while licking the blood in the finger of the girl.
That day the people suddenly remembered what is death and wonders how it is feel to die.

Twilight 12

Hey folks! Since my favorite hour of the day ( or night) is 12:00 A.M, i'd like to share a short story i made. Hope you will dig this one..




“By this time it was well past midnight. You know how that is. It’s a time when you start asking questions about things that in the light of day you wouldn’t consider twice. It’s a time … well, we both know how that goes, in the dark hour.” 
― David Nickle

Its 12:00 in the midnight and all of the clocks in the world stop.
Analog, Digital or even our old and rusting grandfather’s clock begun to freeze as it hit the number 12 like someone unseen command every clock in the world to cease. Everybody woke up from their deep slumber. Some folks who aren’t too drowsy to sleep try to fix their clock but in their dismay it never works out; it is stuck at 12:00 where it isn’t morning or night. My younger brothers who have been watching sci-fi horror most of time told me that we are in the twilight zone. That mysterious phenomena in the T.V show where the characters are trapped in a some kind of bizarre world where the odds and mysterious things become as normal as having a one sunset and one sunrise every day.
I want to laugh with my brother’s sheer imagination but I guess from now on I will never see any sun rise or sun set anymore.
We lost time that day. We didn’t even know when we will start our day or when we will have to go to work or at school. At first, I felt that we are in paradise. Imagine, it’s like we have an endless summer (though we can’t see the sun and everything it totally in the darkness) where there is no school and I can play Final Fantasy all day. But days and weeks passed (of course we all just estimate the day and time nowhere days and its confusing) we begun to notice that trees begun to die. Most of the forest around the globe begun decrease up to 60%.  City people really didn’t care at all with that news. They just really care how will they work if they didn’t know when will they have to wake up or sleep again. It’s obviously scary to see people now in the city with sullen eyes that never blinks at all. Some developed deep eye bags that swallow their whole eyes. They nearly look like zombies from B-Rated Horror movies in our collection. Yet still they just keep moving and moving around the city. Groping and wandering around the city where the only lights that you can see are from lamp post and cars. But the clock is still on twelve and it never bulge or move. That’s the time when I feel that it isn’t fun anymore to have an endless summer wherein in fact we didn’t know if its winter season now or spring.
After some years (again we were just estimating everything regarding time) people seem to adapt the new environment. Everything just went back to normal except we are still in total darkness and most of the forest in the world died as well as the plants and flowers begun to vanish one by one. Today’s foods are mostly from animals: meat and fats. Stores are now selling foods and items with triple prices. They say their supplies are somewhat scarce now that we are living in the “Twilight” Age. People still try to work like normal people would do. Mom and Dad told us that if they don’t work, we will never live. School is still out so me and my brother are now being tutored by an old woman from our neighborhood who always bring some fresh steak for us. We found it too gross to eat that kind of food but she insist that a semi-cooked steak will makes us healthy and strong. Dad told us once that the steak that the old woman brings is delicious. He asked if it’s a pork or beef she just smiled revealing her perfect set of teeth (she doesn’t have any denture) and said it is a special kind of meat.
Crimes then suddenly become violent. Every time the news flash on T.V I have to cover the eyes of my young brother for it’s not appropriate for him to see bodies dismembered and slaughtered like pigs. He will just ask why should his eyes will be covered every time there is news on T.V. Mom and Dad didn’t really replied well so I said to him that the news is not good for kids now a days and it only tells scary things that didn’t really matter at all. “Like in the Twilight Zone?” he asked. I just laugh and hug him. I am such a lousy liar after all.
I knew it will really makes matter worst after I watched a documentary created by some experts on what is the effect of the twilight age in our lives today. It shows that being in total darkness for so long without the sun can affect our physical and mental welfare. It somehow changes our DNA or something about our genes that makes us adapt to it like we will have the ability to see in the dark and have a much sharper sense. It’s cool, we are becoming like mutants. But I nearly fell in my seat as they discuss that as time goes by, now that we are also running out of meat since domesticated, farm and even wild animals are losing their numbers rapidly. Then as the documentary continues, it plays a CCTV video of a lone girl walking in a street. Suddenly, a thin man sprang behind her and tackles her. At first I thought the man will rape the girl but as I look closely, the man swipe is hands against the girls belly like a feral beast. Blood splash in the street, then after wards a scream is heard while the man is feasting on the girl’s intestines. He glanced at the hidden camera with his two glowing sullen eyes. They are like burning coals that sends a chill to my spine, I was shaking that time that I think I will go on a seizure. Then the man smiled, revealing razor sharp teeth with blood all over it. A deep eye bags crinkle as he grin.
“Hey big brother, what are you watching?”
I quickly shut down my laptop with my hands trembling.
“Ah-no it’s nothing. Just some show, you know—“
My brother just looked to me curiously. He is so thin now even though we can still eat 3 times a day with nothing but meat.
“By the way, I tried to eat that steak from the Old Woman” he said sheepishly.
“What? Are you kidding me?”
“It’s delicious! You should try some!” he offers me a handful of meat in his arms. I nearly throw up as I see that the blood from the steak is too fresh. I remember that man from the video as he literally eats the girl.
“It gives me some cool powers too!” my brother proudly says as he ran outside where all the lights are shut down and you could see nothing but pale moon light which is now sarcastically a shocking blood red, like making some fun of me after I watched that documentary. We only see the moon every once in a while. It  reminds us that time still exist but tonight it makes me remember that man in the documentary and the bloodied stake. My brother went to street while I followed him behind. Our block seems so quite, not even cicadas and frogs are heard. My brother stepped into a darker part of one of the alley. I called him to stop his game since it’s quite dangerous for kids to just stroll around in dark places. As I enter the alley, two bright red eyes begun to stare at me in the darkness. My knees tremble in fear as it approach. I screamed until my lungs ached for air then suddenly I heard a giggle, then a bunch of chuckle and finally laughter. 
“You are such a pussy big brother” the bright red eyes begun to have a face. It’s my little brother. Then crowds of people begun to surround us. From my teacher, to the police women, even our Mayor was there. Mom and Dad together with our tutor emerged behind my little brother like they just materialized from the darkness. They eyes are glowing red, like the color of the moon tonight, like the color of blood.
“You should try it!” said my little brother as he munches the bloodied steak in his arm. Blood drips in his hands and on his mouth. Everyone grinned just like them man in the documentary. The smile of a beast or demon with razor sharp teeth. They start to drool blood one by one as they try to get closer and closer to me. I can’t move and tears starts to flow in my eyes. I also wet myself which in some way didn’t matter at all. Their hands starts to touch my body, first its delicate then it become harsh like they are trying to tear me apart.
It was 12:00 in the midnight. Everything is just silent. I feel those teeth sink into my thighs, groin, and neck and then suddenly the moon begun to grin. Her eyes are red and her teeth are dripping with blood.

And then I smiled on her.
