The mjourney of the five best friendsystical
One beautiful morning, five best friends, Piyumi, Hansana, Vishal, Sanidu and Netuli, were getting ready for school. These five friends gathered at Vishal's house to go to school. Everyone got ready early in the morning and came to Vishal's house. But when the other four friends came home, Vishal was fast asleep. Vishal was always the last to get ready..
After that, all five of them go to school. They live in a beautiful village near a small forest a little far from the city. They come out of this big forest every morning with a little fear in their hearts. The reason is that the people of this village talk about a haunted bungalow in the middle of this forest. According to the rumors of the village, the people of this village say that the souls of the people who lived in that bungalow roam this forest. Some have even seen these ghosts. That is why they do not even think of going near this forest. But Netuli does not believe in these things, because she has recently come to this village, so she does not believein them very much. But the other friends are very scared about this.
The five friends go to school anyway and come home in the evening. When they arrive, the forest is a little stranger than it was in the morning. They hear one sound after another from this forest. They start hearing strange cowherd sounds. When the five friends come near this forest in the evening, they don't even look at this forest. Because according to the rumors in the village, if anyone looks at this forest after 6 pm, a demon will come and drag that person into this forest. Several people in this village have disappeared in this way.
Piyumi had taken on the task of decorating the school for a festival on the school holiday. So they left their homes early in the morning for school. Since they left at around 5 am, it was still a little dark near the forest. So Sanidu, who had been thinking about the future, had brought a torch from home. One day, he set out on a path near the forest. While he was walking, they started hearing strange sounds. They started hearing the sound of a fox howling, as well as the sounds of animals that live in the dark like owls and falcons. When they went a little further, they started hearing a sound of leaves rustling. They thought it must have been the sound of them walking. Even as they tried to calm down, the noise became louder and louder. Unable to figure out what it was, Sanidu pointed the torch towards the forest and saw a very tall, long-armed creature with long fingers and sharp claws staring at them. Seeing this, Sanidu started to bark loudly. Netuli, who looked towards the forest with this scream, saw the shadow of that creature in the distance. But when the others looked, it had disappeared from sight. Somehow, Sanidu calmed the friends down and took them to school..
When he was about to go home from the last party at school, he was in a hurry. With the incident that happened this morning, they were a little scared. Somehow, the five friends went home. It was a full moon day. As they were walking near the forest, they felt something strange. Since it was a full moon day, the entire forest was dark. As if by surprise, no sound had been heard in the forest today. Without taking anything, the friends went ahead. On the way, they started hearing the sound of the leaves again. “No one should worry,” the elder said. All the friends went ahead without taking anything. The torch was with Nethulee. Since she did not believe in any of these things, she suddenly held the torch towards the forest. Then, this time, he saw Chaya again in the morning, and he started running, carrying her in his arms. At the same time, the other friends came running after Nethuli. Anyway, there was no trouble. The five friends went home without them. But since everyone had promised not to tell anyone at home about what had happened, no one went home to tell anyone anything.
Piyumi, who was very tired, immediately went home, put on a good wash and went to bed. The other four were also tired and went to bed early. Piyumi's house clock struck 12 midnight. But Piyumi was sound asleep and didn't hear anything. Suddenly, a strange black shadow passed by the window where Piyumi was sleeping. At the same time, she felt something strange. She woke up and looked around for a while, but there was nothing there, so she went to sleep. After a while, Piyumi felt a similar shadow pass by the window, but this time it was the flower pot that was kept near the window from the outside, which scared Piyumi a little. She thought for a while, drank a little water, thought it might be a cat or some other animal, and went to sleep. While sleeping like this for a while, a noise starts coming from Piumi's room. She opens her eyes in fear, but there is nothing there. When she covers herself with the bedsheet to sleep, she sees a black, ugly-looking demon crawling out of the bedsheet. Suddenly, Piumi wakes up as she screams and falls. Then she realizes that she has seen a terrible dream.
When they came out of the house early in the morning to go to Nethulila's house because of the school holidays, they saw that the flower pot near the room had fallen to the ground. Piumi ignored them and went to Nethulila's house. She was also awake early in the morning. She was very scared when she saw Piumi. Nethuli had also had a dream like Piumi. Together, they went to Vishal's house with Sanidu. When they went to Vishal's house, they realized that all five of them had had the same terrible dream. Thinking about what to do about this, they realized that something was wrong. Although the other four had only seen dreams, they realized that Piumi's house was haunted by evil spirits. They wondered what could have happened. They could not imagine anything. Finally, Vishal said, "Let's tell our grandmother about this." Speaking like this, he told Vishal's grandmother everything that had happened. The grandmother was very scared. Then the grandmother said, "Those demons come after the first person they see. Then they drag him into that forest. Then they come after the second person they see." When the grandmother said this, everyone was surprised because she saw the demon first because Sanidu. Then Piyumi said that she saw it about 5 minutes before Sanidu screamed.
Now everyone is very scared about what to do about this. Then the grandmother told her a solution to this. “There is only one solution to this. According to the folklore of the village, you should bring water from the pond in the pujabhoomi of an old temple in the middle of the forest and pour it on the statue of that bungalow. This is what everyone who is caught in this curse should do.” Upon hearing this, everyone was afraid to do this. With this, everyone left for their homes with great fear and curiosity.
The friends who went to the houses started thinking about this. How to do this. As soon as darkness fell, everyone fell asleep. That night, the same things that happened to Piyumi that day started happening to everyone. The next morning, the friends gathered and everyone was willing to do this work. Somehow, everyone prepared everything they needed to leave the houses and left that night. Everyone left the houses without telling anyone at home. Everyone got together and made a plan for the journey they were going to take.
The friends gradually moved forward and heard strange sounds as the forest got closer, this sound began to increase. Now the forest was in front of them. They began to go deeper into the forest. Everyone moved a little further into the forest and felt strange. They began to feel a strong feeling that someone was watching them. The forest became silent. The fog gradually began to increase. The darkness gradually began to increase. Everyone felt that something strange and tangible was moving in the darkness. All the friends were moving in one direction. Sanidu went behind, followed by Piumi and Netuli. The group was moving in front. Sanidu, who was walking behind, felt that someone was coming behind him. So Sanidu looked back. Then, very scared by what he saw, Sanidu started running. He also started running because of the others. After running for a long distance, he stopped at one place and asked Sanidu what had happened. Then he told what he saw: "I saw a strange animal behind me. The animal was about 10 feet tall. It had red eyes and long legs. It stood on two legs like a man. It had a deer's antlers on its head. I was very scared when I saw that animal. So, I ran." After Sanidu told this story, the other friends were very scared. Netuli started shaking. She said loudly that someone in the group was missing. After saying that, the others also got worried. Hansana was missing. Everyone started calling Hansana's name. There was no response.
The group started shouting Hansa's name. A voice came from inside the forest, "I am here, I am here." But Piumi said that this voice did not sound like Hansa's. Since there was nothing else to do, everyone started walking in the direction where the voice came from. While they were going, suddenly someone covered Piumi's mouth and dragged her into the forest. Sanindu, who had gone ahead, was also dragged into the forest. Someone also dragged the other two into the forest. It was no one else, it was Hansana. Hansa said that it was not me who was talking. At that time, the elephants also started hearing vishal's voice. Everyone was sweating profusely, wondering what this was. The group started walking towards the forest without making any noise. After a while, the group found a deserted house. Vishal, who had been looking at the bungalow for a while, said, "Today we will stay in this house." Everyone decided to stay in the bungalow, which was completely deserted. When they went to the upper floor of this bungalow, they were able to find bedrooms. They were very comfortable. With a little happiness in everyone's heart, they stayed in this house that night..
Sanidu woke up to the sound of birds chirping in the morning. When Sanidu woke up, Vishal, who was with them, was not there, so he woke up the other friends and started looking for Vishal. Just then, Vishal, who came from a room under the bungalow, said something very strange. "There is a laboratory under this house," he said, surprising everyone. "How can there be a laboratory in such an old house? It can't be," said Netuli. When everyone went to look, they found a computer there. When they turned it on, they were surprised by what they saw in a video. It was a video of how the strange creature they saw was created. The people in this house were experimenting with vaccines using deer and humans. One of the vaccines they produced went wrong and a young woman in this house had turned into a strange monster. That monster had killed them all.
It has killed and eaten people. The video further explains that this animal can imitate sounds. While telling this story, the person recording the video is also being eaten by this monster. Now everyone understands that they cannot escape from this by doing what the wet mother said. Because of this, everyone got ready to go home. A big gun was found in this house. The others also got ready to go home by finding some weapons.
As the group of friends walked a little further, it started to get dark. They also started to hear the sound. Everyone set off calmly and quietly. As they walked, they felt someone running fast behind them. When everyone looked back, they saw that strange creature coming behind them. As soon as they saw this, everyone started running in different directions. The group scattered. Everyone started to feel lonely. The forest became silent again. Vishal adjusted the gun in his hand and looked around carefully. The bushes around Vishal started shaking. Suddenly, Netuli came forward from the bushes. Vishal, who was very scared, fired a shot. The shot hit the other side, saving Netuli. Their happiness was short-lived. The strange creature started approaching them. Since not a single shot hit the animal, the creature chased them. When the two went to catch the strange animal, a hail of bullets hit it. The animal died there. Since no one was home, the parents had informed the police. The police had also rescued them. Somehow, everything turned out well.
But the police officers said they saw another animal dragging the dead body of that animal...
END….?
The sight of body after body streaming down from hundreds of conveyor belts all over the country as they enter the processor, then flowing into and filling giant tubes of the centrifuge for organelle purification has been nothing less than a nightmare. As a distinguished O.R.E. inspector with the highest level of clearance unknown to the public, I’ve had to visit and become part of various projects on black sites all over the continent. The numbing and constant desensitization is the least disturbing aspect of my job. After we turn on the centrifuge, we separate pieces of the organelles into fragments; the purified remains are used as samples for genetic splicing- -for the elites- -while the rest is for the creation of clean chemical energy C.C.E., which is the crucial component to the public as organic renewable energy or so-called, O.R.E.
A little over 250 years ago, around the 2050s' the world was divided into 195 countries, and their leaders and policies governed each. At the time, there were world superpowers: The United States of America, located in North America, Russia, and China were both located in Asia; they were the top three countries with a formidable military, economy, international alliances, and political influence. Other honorable mentions, such as Germany and The United Kingdom, are still around today and continue to reside in Europe. As you know today, six continents with countries within their borders still exist, but after the last World War, not many countries had much of a choice; they had to align themselves with one of the five superpowers. Most countries chose to side with the United States or China, some sided with Russia, and the remainder either went neutral or found themselves part of Germany or The United Kingdom.
As of today, in 2301, only one world government controls the world. The UN disbanded, and then a year later, Russia and China cyberattacked the United States, knocking out the entire power grid. Washington D.C. was the first location to get its power back up and running, and then the tech giants in San Francisco managed to be the first city. The top tech companies rebuilt and fortified every military, bank, and government firewall nationwide. Working on powering and protecting New York City was crucial due to the Stock Market plummeting. Individuals and companies lost so much money, and those who didn’t have cash were hopeless. The banks had no control or access to facilitate any form of business. Credit and Debit cards held no value anymore, plastic mementos with random numbers that used to mean something.
By the time the Stock Market was fully functional, which took 33 days, almost 10 million people committed suicide after 14 days, then another 40 million by the 30th day; in total, a little over 50 million people took their own lives. In Chicago and Los Angeles, grocery stores were raided, mass shootings skyrocketed, and homes/apartments were burned to ashes after the cash, food, and weapons were stolen. Several citizens in the cities throughout the country followed suit, and almost 100 million people fell victim to heinous crimes; at least 70 million people were killed before the military became involved. The police did as much as they could, but with their reputation in the eyes of the public tarnished, the amount of respect and authority dwindled after a couple of weeks.
Almost half of the United States population was decimated before the terrorist attacks on American soil. The country was in shambles, cities were burning, and the streets were littered with debris and the bodies of innocent victims. Unfortunately for China and Russia, the Allies joined forces. The alliance, which was formed during World War II emerged once again, but this time, they came in to assist and save the United States. The previous allied countries, the United Kingdom and France came together with Germany and Japan, the former Axis powers. Germany and Japan replaced Russia and China in this War and vice versa. Japan had boots on the ground in China 54 days after the cyberattacks, taking over the island of Hainan and then destroying a significant amount of their navy in Zhanjiang. As the Japanese continued their strike, the French, British, and Israeli Air Forces flew into Belarus and bombed their military bases out of existence. This is where Germany would take their tanks, artillery, and infantry into Ukraine as they made their way to Moscow. The Ukrainian Army gave as much help as possible even after the war with Russia. At the same time, the Polish armed forces sent their troops into Belarus to prevent any aid or communications with the Russian Military.
Once Belarus was out of play, the German and Ukrainian Forces began their march into Moscow. As they fought and gained ground, making their way into the Capital, The British and the French Air Force got more reinforcements, ammo, and fuel in Belarus. After Poland had taken control, they helped clear the way for the German and Ukrainian infantry. Moscow was under the control of the Allies within days. Japan was doing everything it could to keep control of both naval bases, but they were fighting a losing battle. As they were retreating to regroup, then sending in a second wave to finish the job, Tawaiin’s navy showed up, giving the Japanese forces a massive boost in morale to propel them to take control over both Hainan and Zhanjiang, crippling China’s Naval Forces.
From that point forward, all the Allies needed was time and patience after a couple of years of fighting against the Axis powers. They were overwhelmed, and eventually, the confiscation of nuclear weapons gave their leaders nothing to threaten the world with; a treaty between the Allies and Axis powers was agreed upon and signed with several conditions, which took over 30 days to finalize. It seemed like for a few years, the world held its breath, waiting for the same countries to revolt and abandon the terms and conditions of the treaty, but for the next century, everything stayed the same. The world will always need opposition if there is only peace and no war. We will be left with nothing if there is only war and no peace. A balance, one way or another, must be sought and protected at all costs.
As the years passed, A.I. had taken over the world completely, but not in the way we all thought. Some robots became sentient, while others were confined by the strict boundaries that lie within their coding. As a species, we thrived even more than anyone could have imagined. Many of us, possibly the entire human race, had their bets on AI destroying and siphoning our lives from us for their benefit or vindication. Don’t get me wrong, several years were stained by the blood of men, women, children, and the essence of sentient beings, but in the end, the AI and humans created a symbiotic relationship that saved Earth and everything that had life from within. As more time passed, our civilization grew to a point where the world needed one governing body, one with humans and AI as one, making everything under the sun, shine as bright as the stars above when it sets.
A century has passed, and with the evergrowing success of our world government, EROS, we’ve performed what people a few hundred years ago would call miracles. Our civilization has colonized the Moon and reached undiscovered planets near the edges of the Milky Way and distant planets we could only see through telescopes of the highest caliber. Advanced forms of energy do not take and destroy the life filling our ecosystems but provide them with the resistance to elements that once plagued them. The life expectancy of humans has risen to almost 150 years of age. Diseases come and go because cures and treatments are so advanced that the deadliest illnesses and pandemics haven’t existed since the late 21st century. Hunger, the starving of nations and their people has almost vanished entirely. Technology flourishes like a plant that has control over the sun and provides its own warmth, waters that feed the soil where it grows, and the earth where the roots dig into building a foundation strong enough never to perish.
Life is collectively referred to as a dark fantasy, although many of us attempt incorporating ideas in our head, searching for ways to escape reality. I for one believe anything that can befriend you, can kill.
Every creature has a dark side but mine doesn't have my best interests at heart, I mumble short prayers, locking all the doors and windows shut.
Every step I took upstairs, made the wooden stairs creek, I keep having this feeling am been followed but every time I look back, am left with goosebumps and my head increasing in size.
I swallowed an imaginary saliva down my throat and continue walking up slowly otherwise I will freak out and run upstairs, that will mess up my night.
If you know anything about darkness, you'll know it leaves no room for the weakest heart. This foreign presence happens whenever am home alone, I made a research on the life beyond and discovered that the level of one's fear determines how far we're willing to let the darkness in.
I gently crawl under the duvet and sleep on my right side facing the door, my heartbeat was accelerating, you could hear every beat of it. 2,3,4 minutes later, the gruesome feeling was gone and I accidentally took a nap that lasted for two minutes until my ears picked a creaking footstep 👣 approaching in the direction of my room, dragging a metal object on the wall, I froze on the bed.
I searched for my phone under the duvet and my eyes found it far on the table which was close to the door, this wasn't a normal circumstance so, my mind is blank.
"Do you wanna play", the voice said, sounding distant but very near. That was when I remembered all the short phrases used in horror movies, I stupidly find myself screaming them one by one.
Is anyone out there?
"Who the hell are you?"
Show yourself coward.
"What do you want from me?"
The noise died down and just when I thought it's over, the door to my room was kicked open with full force.
