OccuranceNotincluded t1_j16z710 wrote

Just like everyday, i sleep at a bench inside a subway station. I've been homeless for 4 years now, the cause of it was my divorce. Since then ive been eating from trash and stuff 'ya know the ol' homeless persons buisness.

This morning particulary, i saw a graffiti artist drawing on another wall at subway. It was a normal occurance, so i paid no heed for about let's say 3 months since i really have no interests in it. but this one late night when i couldn't sleep, i had a strange urge to look at the graffiti and to my schock it wasn't art at all. It was words a whole paragraph, it details incoming events and disasters to name one "In november 13, 20XX 13:40. A solar flare no close than 4.5Milion meters shall be blasted towards the earth". And that was tomorrow.

I treated it was some nonsense, after that i tried and succesfully went to sleep. I wake up, i do my normal stuff like finding food out of trash, and scavenging for stuff that i can sell. Then it happend, The solar flare hit earth by 4.5 milion meters. i felt a burning sensation, like something was coming to me, i look up and see a bright light.

My eyes immediately reacted it felt like it was melting but it wasn't. I blink multiple times, and as i regain my vision i see something in the distance. It wasnt humane, cause i'm preety sure there isn't a human with Pointy ears. He becomes more clearer, he is holding a bow thats pointing at me. After i realise that i was the one being aimed at i immediately panicked. In my 43 years on earth, this the first time where i felt intense pressure and the reason to live. As i hide behind a large rock, i can hear that he's yelling, something along the lines of "Pig bastard, where are you?".

It can speak english, shockingly. as i hide i can hear him getting closer. I immediately look around, and see a sharp rock. I grab it hastily, i got a little cut in the process. But i wait for him, as he passes by, i slash his heel making him fall over. After a seemingly short victory dance, i run and run untill im out of breath. I see a empty village, i settle there. Now with my goals in mind, trying to find out where am i, and how i can get back, or maybe i was given a second chance. Whatever it may be, i'll accept it.
