My feet hit the ground as quick as a deers and silent as a panthers. Trees flashed by along with cabins and people I knew. I was running from the darkness. The darkness that was overcoming my sector. Then the first scream breaks out. It stops and everything is eerily quiet for a few seconds and then a chorus of screams break out. I can pick out the screams of the people I know. I choke back my own scream as I hear children shrieking and crying in terror. I skid to a halt and turn back. As soon as I do the darkness overcomes me, black as pitch. The screaming stops and it's quiet once more.
I stumble over something warm and twitching. A body. I look down forgetting that I can't see. Nothing. Just darkness. I stumble around trying to find someone who is alive. Then something catches my attention. A light flickers close to where my hand is. I lift up my hand and will the light to flicker again. To my surprise my finger lights up with a white-hot flame.
