Failed prayers

Chapter 1-Landon

I wake up, my alarm blaring. I let out a sigh, and got out of bed. I very sleepily got into the shower, and then got dressed. Making my way out of the bathroom, I grab a few pieces of bread, and throw them into the toaster, turning on the TV to listen to the news. Once my toast was finished, I grabbed it, heading to the living room to enjoy my breakfast and watch the news.

"The sanctuary has finished completion on its newest particle collider." The reporter stated. "They will be running it for the first time today.. It is expected to be loud, so we recommend buying the all new-"

I turn the TV off. I always hated science... Particles... Biology... not really my thing. I get up, and decide to go on a walk, hoping that they haven't started the collisions. I put my shoes on, and head out the door, beginning to walk to the nearest store.

As I got there, I noticed an extra military presence, with various Vehicles and a multitude of soldiers. I headed into the store, and began grabbing what I needed.. Milk, Jam, and of course, more bread. I was on my way to the eggs, when the power went out, and a large tremor occurred, knocking the basket out of my hand.

I quickly made my way outside, wondering what was happening, and the first thing that I seen, was a large beam of light, coming from a distance away. It seemed like a lightning bolt, and then.. Reality cracked.

A yellow and white crack began to form in the sky. The clouds parted, and the ground still shook. I watched in awe, and then, something started to come out.

Humanoid creatures, with white wings and yellow bodies, began to claw their way out, dive bombing into the road. People screamed. Guns were firing. And one of them landed a few feet in front of me.

I froze, in horror, in shock, and it began running on all fours towards me. I grabbed the closest thing to me, which was a cart, and I swung it at the creature. The creature's head got split in half, yet it was still alive. I ran back into the store, as it charged at another person.

The Military shot at them, and a group of soldiers ran in, quickly deploying Expanding walls and ways to barricade entrances. I shockingly was the only one in there, except for the soldiers.

I made my way to the soldiers, and began discussing with them.

"What happened?!"

A soldier responded back.

'The Sanctuary created a rift to heaven.'

"... HEAVEN?"

'Yeah. it's real, but we can't go into much more detail.. We'll have to hold out here.'

"Okay.."

I made my way to the furniture, creating a makeshift bed, and laying in it. As I drifted off to sleep, I prayed that everything would be okay... however... as it seems... that isn't a good idea anymore.
