Your name is Okan, You are 17.
Lately, You've been having to stay home from everything because a mysterious plague has befallen your dingy city, Rotting away people from the inside out.
..It's tough. They only cover the cost of your small Apartment, And a few day's worth of groceries. Your dad's out of a job and your sister is out of her medication..
Your dad gets sick, with something unknown.. Doctors can't seem to find the time to check in, So you'll have to make due.
Your sister is busy studying for her "degree that will help me support dad", And your brother's missing, Probably off breaking laws with his friends again.
So you're the only one left to get groceries.
...on your way home it rains.
A lot.
It hurts to walk. So you find shelter in an abandoned building around.. And there, You discover a doorway, Apparently it's just a Storage room.
It seems normal atfirst, Though, You don't hear any rain anymore.
It sounds nice out there, actually..
You venture out, And..
...
What is this.
What.. where..
Where are you? You're in a patch of woods that has eventual metal-cross fencing.
You gotta be close to home, Right?
...um.. This place is.. Oddly serene. You forget a lot about the plague and about your siblings almost instantaneously, Mixed in with panic of being lost.
The door behind you loudly clicks locked, So seems like that path is out.
Scorched's Notes -
While a lot more mature in tone, I think this story could have been fun! I was in more of an emo phase though, So it'd probably be quite gory.
