Jakarta 31 December. 11.00
South City Mall, one of the crowdest mall in south Jakarta. Daisy a 19 years old girl, currently enjoying her usual Hot green tea latte while waiting for her college friends at Starbuck.
Suddenly a sudden touch to her shoulder...
"Sorry girl, we took so long..."
"Sorry sorry, the traffic is kinda weird today"
"Yes Daisy we're not lying there are surprisingly many police on the street today"
"..."
This is Daisy three college friend, They have been friends for a few years, Rahel the drama queen is in the theater major, she already plays in a few small-budget local films, Sally took the business major and Melissa follows her, parents major in politics. While Daisy took major in Art. These four girls are the Jakarta college four beauties.
.
"You'll forgive us right girl... you are always nice...
.
Daisy just smiles and nodded, compare to her friend she's actually a little different, she's a simple girl. Jakarta college is one of the best school in Jakarta, most of the students came from a rich family. Daisy, she's an orphan, her mother died when she was little and her father follows three years ago. Her parents left her some heritance who currently being managed by her aunt. Daisy is one of the special students who got accepted in the college with a special scholarship. She's a talented artist.
.
"Anyway on the way we met Adam and his friends, I invited them here... he said he will join us"
.
"Waaa Adam will be joining us, hows my hair" Rahel started her dramatic routine.
.
A few minutes later Adam came with his two friends, Jason and Keane. Adam is what these girls thought as the ideal boyfriend. He's handsome and smart. He is the student council president and the basketball ball team captain. His two basketball buddies Jason is a tall bulky guy, for his age, he looks like a person on steroids. Keane is much shorter, he is a very talkative guy.
Keane "Hi girls, there are four of you and three of us but don't worry this Keane can handle two girls at once" Adam's hand grab Keane head down... "Please excuse him, he's always like that" Adam not only handsome he's also a gentleman.

There are now seven people on the group, they moved to the mall balcony corner. Rahel took a sit closer to Adam. She really likes him and not afraid to show it. But daisy somehow feels this Adam has been secretly staring at her.
"So what do you boys have plan for this new year eve?"
"We the basketball team suppose to gather tonight but many of our friends suddenly cancel"
"Is it that doomsday topic again?"
"Yes some of their parents are very protective I guess"
"I thought it was expected to start today... but I guess its just all nonsense"
"..."
"Look!! the sky is weird today.."
"Don't be such a drama... its probably just raining stor....."
"..."
The clear blue sky and white cloud that was there just a moment ago suddenly turn into thick dark clouds. it seems moving like a smoke gas and spread out fast covering the sky. A few seconds later a lightning storm can be seen inside the dark clouds. It's a bolt of blue lightning. It didn't strike down, but it swimming around on the cloud.
.
Thunderous sound repeatedly heard on the horizon, it gave a chill to everyone hearing it. The wind blows really strong... the group needs to hold on to something to keep their feet steady.
.
"It's weird.. the wind is blowing towards the storm"
Suddenly the wind and the thunder stops...
.
CRRRAACCK!!!
"..."
BRAAAKKKK!!!
.
"..."
The group and everyone on the balconies walking up and seeing the scenes outside. There are multiple car crashes can be seen. There is one car that got flip over by the bus and crash into the bustop.. there are some passerby got hit and thrown away.... it was chaos outside... Not long after the mall light goes out. before anyone trying to say anything about it. A horrible thing happen..
.
TTTTSSSSSS.
"..."
.
Up in the sky an airplane swirly fall from the sky and drop to the mall on the opposite side of the streets.
.
Adam screams "Everyone lay down!!!"
.
.
KKAAABBOOOOOOO!!!!!!
.
the glasses around the cafe breaks, Daisy wake up from the floor with a ringing sound on her ear.. The crash and explosion was less than 100 meter from her and the group. A figure help her up, it was Adam, but she cants think anything at the moment other than seeing back to the scene outside of the balconies.

.
.
It was such a horror. Wreckages and fire... most people on the opposite balconies were crashed... Daisy can see the body of a person hanging on the balconies. Scream and cries everywhere. The group are shocked and terrified. The design of the mall are identical between two opposite balconies, make it seems like a mirror and horrific thought came to their mind...
"My phone is off let me see yours!!"
"Mine too.."
Adam walks to the cafe counter and asks for the landline phone... it's also off. even his watch is off.
"..."
"Is this really happening?" Melissa said what's in everyone mind at the moment... everyone starts to relate to the doomsday video, the timing is accurate. Sally start crying thinking about it...
Adam intervene "Don't panic, nothing is sure, this could probably be a terrorist attack. An EMP attack can be developed by many countries these days."
Adam manages to relief some of the group despair... but the situation really is upsetting. Daisy walks closer to Sally and hugged her...
Many people rushed out to the street. people worried things would get worst, it's natural to think of going back home..
Daisy speaks up.."What should we do now?" everyone looks up to Adam. He thinks for a while and said. "A terrorist attack or Doomsday, either way, this place is too open.. it's not safe. We need to find a safer place first... whose home is the closest?"
.
The closest house is Rahel's, but its a few blocks away.
"Ok, we will go to my place then". Adam said.. its an apartment just a block away... what do you think?"
Most of them want to go home but its probably not a good idea as its too far and the street are in chaos at the moment. Everyone then agrees to go to Adam's apartment.
"we are uncertain how long this disaster would last, as we are currently in the mall. It's probably a good idea to get some supplies first. and we need to hurry... many would think the same"
Led by Adam, the group ran to the first floor and to the supermarkets. They each grab a big backpack and start filling it up with foods and drink. Just to be sure Adam and the boys went to the hardware store and took some tools; Hammer, Knife, and axes.
Not long after the supermarket suddenly becomes crowded. "Time to go"
Daisy said "wait we should leave some money in the counter"
"...:"
Three men, four women with backpack walk out of the supermarket and start carefully walk to the apartment. It's one kilometer away from the mall.. but the journey seems much longer than that. The group saw some corpses inside a car with no one to help and people running around the street.
Finally, the group reaches the apartment lobby, There are some people rushing out of the apartment with big bags.. there are no securities around. the group walks up to the stairs.
"It's the 8th floor, look at the bright side.. it will be unfortunate if it is the 18th floor" Adam try to make jokes to lighten up the mood, but none of them in the mood for jokes. only Daisy smiling at him knowing his intention.
They finally reach the apartment. it's pretty big two bedroom apartment... the group resting in the living room, they are a lot calmer at the moment.
"So Adam, I never know you have an apartment here?" Rahel asked
"Yes this one belongs to my dad"
"Never heard of you speak about your dad"
"Yes my mom and dad divorced a while back, my dad actually just gave me this key a few days ago."
"This photo is your dad? that uniform... is he a cop?"
"Yes he's a high-rank police officer"
"That's good probably your dad will come and help us"
"I doubt it"
"..."
"Your eyes...!!"
"Keane your eyes turn red..." the group altogether seen it. Keane's eyes are bloody red...
Keane walks up the corner.. seeing a mirror he becomes panics. "I am fine. I am fine... nothing wrong !!...don't look at me like that!!..."
Suddenly Keane turns smiling... "Hahaha... Hey, Sally, yours is also the same"
