Description:
Sci-Fi Story “Chug, Chug, Chug, Chug!” yelled Mikey as Ivin finished his beer. They were all very intoxicated and paranoid that they would be caught. There were three of them, Ivin, Mikey, and Jake, and all of them under age. Ivin and Mike were sixteen and Jake was fifteen, almost sixteen. They were all having a good time, when Mikey showed them all something that he never should have. “What is that?” asked Jake, very eager to find out. “It is the weirdest looking thing I’ve ever seen!” exclaimed Ivin. “Isn’t it cool? It’s my brothers. He made it last night,” said Mikey. He seemed very eager to use it, but Jake and Ivin didn’t know how. Right before Jake asked Mike what it was he said, “Here you go guys, Ivin, you go first.” “I don’t know what it is, Mikey!” “Yeah Mike, what is it?” asked Jake anxiously. “It’s a beer bong,” Mikey said very mysteriously. “A beer bong? How does it work?” asked Ivin. Mikey gave Jake one part of it that looked like a funnel and told Jake to pour some beer down it. Mike put the tube part in his mouth, and started drinking the beer that Jake was pouring in. “WOO! That stuff’s great!” shouted Mikey. They all took turns drinking from it until they couldn’t take anymore. “Hey, do you guys hear that?” asked Jake. “Yeah, what is that?” Ivin asked. “Sounds like a cheese grater.” Said Mike. “A cheese grater? No way! It sounds like a train, or a plane or something.” Said Ivin. “You guys are morons. It’s a siren or something.” Said Jake, completely positive in his answer. “Wait a minute, a siren.” Ivin asked, “It’s the cops! RUN!” The three boys started running as fast as they could out the back door, when Mikey fell down. Jake and Ivin turned around to help him, because the three of them were best of friends and could never lose one of them. When Mikey looked up to see his two friends running, they were in spotlights. He thought it was a helicopter and had decided to give up. He put his head down to pray when all of a sudden there was complete silence. He looked up suddenly and heard and saw absolutely nothing. He was scared out of his mind. Jake and Ivin had disappeared, the cops had disappeared, and everything was gone. It was as if he had just woken up in the middle of the night, but he didn’t. “Guys!” Mikey screamed, “Where are you. This isn’t funny you assholes!” His screams echoed off into the distance. He wondered where everyone had gone and why he was alone. He was scared. He was very scared, but not for himself. He feared for his friends. He felt it was his duty to go out and find them. He had to find them. “Guys! Dudes this isn’t funny! All right dudes I give up. SERIOUSLY!” Mikey was walking outside now. Everything was still quiet. He happened to look into a person’s windows, and there were televisions on, radios blaring, showers running, and even food cooking, but there were no people anywhere. He had decided that he was probably just on a weird trip from all of the booze when he heard a voice that he had never heard. “Who’s there?” asked Mike. “You know who.” Replied the voice. Mikey tried to turn around so that he could see whose voice it was, but his body was stiff. He couldn’t move at all. All at once, there was an extremely sudden flash of a bright light. Then, he wasn’t in his neighborhood anymore but in a square room with no doors. The only things there were chains, each one connected to a limb and a corner. He was in the middle of the room in the air. He suddenly felt an immense pain and shouted. The pain was relieved instantly then a voice from the floor said sorry. He couldn’t see a body, or any living form anywhere. He could only hear this strange voice. “Where am I? Who are you? Where are my friends?” Demanded Mike. “Your friends are fine. There is no need to worry. Everything will be back to normal again soon.” Said the voice. “Who are you? Let me go! If you don’t let me go…” Mike was suddenly interrupted with a loud booming voice. “SHUT UP!” Mike was perfectly quiet and still. “What’s going on?” He asked quivering. “I told you don’t worry. We just want to show you something.” The voiced boomed. “I’d watch if I could but that loud voice is making me deaf!” Mike screamed. He felt if he screamed he’d regain control. “I’m sorry,” the voice was quiet again, “but please just watch.” The wall in front of him flashed. It looked like a T.V turning on, he thought. That’s what it was. The voice told him to pay close attention. “The year is 2351, and the world is under attack.” Mikey sat watching the huge T.V as it went on with its report. It looked just like the news. Some parts of it made Mike extremely bored, but some parts grabbed him. “Earthlings have lost.” This headline made Mikey scream to the strange voice. “WHAT! What is happening on Earth?” Mikey demanded the truth. The voice replied, “Nothing, nothing is happening on Earth, literally. You were chosen to see this and spread the word.” For some reason, Mike instantly knew what the voice was talking about. “Show me more.” Said Mike calmly. “Finally, you understand.” Said the voice. The T.V went on to show the end of the human race by the human hand. Mikey tried to figure out how to stop it. “I’ve got it!” Mikey exclaimed. BOOM! There was another flash. “Mikey get up!” Ivin yelled. “Yeah dude, we got to get out of here!” Said Jake. Mikey stood up slowly and simply said “Follow me.” Ivin and Jake were mad at Mike because he didn’t start running with them, but they decided he has to know what he’s doing. The three of them walked outside and much to their surprise there were no cops. It was a fireworks show. They all started laughing at themselves for being so immature and jumping to conclusions. Mikey decided that his vision was an omen, so when his friends left, he stole his parents car and raced to the closest television studio. He broke in and wired the cameras so that it would be broadcasted on every channel. “We need to be more active!” Mikey screamed, “We never know what will happen next. Stop smoking, drinking, watching T.V, or anything else. Go out and get an education and get physically fit. Our laziness and closed-mindedness is destroying us.” Before Mike could finish, the police stormed in and arrested him. Jake and Ivin saw his arrest on live T.V and decided that he must have a good point. They motivated as many people as they could to get up and go out. The year is now 2354, three years after the assumed end of the human race. Ivin and I have succeeded and our good friend Mike had finally gotten out of jail. |
