《WriTE Halloween Contest》The Swarm - by RedDragonyte13
Advertisement
It’s been several years since the swarm of bugs came to earth. We thought they came in peace… we were wrong. Millions dead in the first day, only the strongest survived. My name is Vaughn and this is my story.
“Vaughn! We have to get in the cellar! They’re coming!” My wife Lindsay shouted as she grabbed our son, Thomas and ran into the cellar.
I stood there, dumbfounded at what was happening.
‘They said they were coming in peace… those goddamn liars!’ I thought in rage.
I heard the sound of chittering in the distance. They’re here.
“Shit!” I shouted as I ran to the cellar.
We were there for hours.
Days.
Weeks.
They didn’t leave.
We took our chances and ran.
It was a mistake, Lindsay was ripped in half with Thomas in her arms.
I screamed in despair as I fell to my knees. But, they ignored me.
They just crawled past me and ate everyone else.
I was the only one.
The only survivor.
I swore to avenge my family.
My friends.
My sanity.
It took five years, but I finally got enough people together to put up a fight against those… those monsters.
“Now! My friends! We shall go to war against that shit eating swarm! Let’s go!” I shouted to the resistance.
“”YEAH!!!”” Thousands of men and women shouted back.
“TO WAR!!!” I shouted as I opened the door and gunned down two of the giant bugs outside.
The resistance followed suit and started to gun down every fucking bug they saw.
But. It was all for nothing. Even if we killed thousands. Thousands came back.
There’s just too many of them.
Everyone’s going to die.
I’m going to die.
I… don’t want to die.
...I’m not going to die!

I’m going to rebuild!
I’m going to kill every single one of those giant bug fucks!
“RETREAT!!!” I shouted.
The sound of hundreds of men and women running towards me hit my ears.
Then, the chittering.
Every second, dozens of soldiers died.
Until, there was only one left.
Me.
I’m the sole survivor, again!
“Why!? Why am I the only one to survive!?” I asked myself. Not noticing the chittering behind me. Until it was too late.
“Huh?” I said as I felt the mandibles of the giant bugs on my neck.
Then, I heard a crunching sound.
Then… nothing.
THE END.

Kalar's Continent
Magic is a fickle thing, hard to grasp and even harder to truly master. Mana flows through everything in the world, every rock, plant, and human. They all breath, grow and influence their surroundings in their own right.Join Teo, a bright young boy with a gift for Arcane Magic, through his journey to tackle the Elements, master his Craft and climb to the very peak of magic itself.Who will he meet, friends or foes? Trusted companions or bitter rivals? Will he be able to find his answer and get to the real meaning of magic, all while wrestling with the complex laws of nature and his own unripe emotions?There is only one way to find out.The story will start with a few chapters of introductions in volume 1 to establish the characteristics and the nature of the world the characters live in. After that, it will probably become a lot more fast-paced and incorporate real story progression. My goal is to fuse the common magic advancement system in a weak-to-strong fashion, together with elements of naturalism, magic combat action and little bits and pieces of science, wherever necessary, to form a bright and interesting story about a boy chasing his dreams about magic.
