Stitches
Chapter one: "fancy meeting you here"
Judgement day.Oblivion.The apocolypse.The end of the world. whatever it is that happens when the planet known as earth
will be no more, this is it.The human race will kill itself in the infinite abyss that lies ahead of this calamity. And i was the person who
foretold such events. it was 12 years ago, when i was 4, i had told my mother ' won't have a 17th birthday, will I?'. its a very rough
foretelling but it still predicted these events that are coming now. My name is Daniel Glenford and i am currently 16 years of age,
and in exactly 2 months, 24 days, 23 hours, 17 minutes, and 48 seconds, the world will end; on my 17th birthday. All the american
scientists say that I'm the catalyst for the event that will come and I should be killed. I dont think i'm not the catalyst for the reason
that they want to kill me, but how could a human life cut the thread that is existance? How could an innocent unknowing child kill
an entire race of beings?

"they're here again.." Mary said as some kind of sharp objects screeched across the large bay window in my living room.
Mary is my girlfriend that has been with me for 3 years. most girls always steer clear of me becaus they think I'll kill them with my
'supernatural powers'. I rolled my eyes as i got out of my recliner. "huh.." its really been noisy since my parents left me here to die..
I finished in my thoughts. Mary didn't like me reminding her that i was left to die. "i'll be back shortly" i said as i grabbed the shotgun,
which wasn't even loaded, to go 'scare' the lunatics away from my house. I cocked it then started walking down the side of my house.
they must have heard my foot steps and then started the chainsaw that they were 'oh so obviously using to scrape the window'.
"s**t...." i whispered to my self, then they came running.. I had to sprint back to the house and block the door with my body and go
grab a couple of slugs, but I wasn't fast enough. As I started loading the shotgun, i saw a chainsaw blade cut through the door, just
inches from my head.I rolled away from it and then started shooting the door. magnificantly, the chainsaw then fell out of the little
tear in the door. I had killed the man wielding it. Then I heard another murmuring, then of all my rotten luck, another b*****d has the
gal to pick up the chainsaw! "s**t" I cussed again " Mary get over here and help!"
she then grabbed the nail gun from the garage, " always a pleasure to help ' kill the baddies'" she speaked sarcasticly
at the end. "oh gee.. i see you don't want to help..well, then just leave me here to get killed by a horde of CRAZIES!" i screamed
the last part. i knew how much she hated to be remind of painful things. she didn't answer. i sighed, then was brought back into
perspective when the chainsaw cut through the door again. i fired several slugs, and there were at least 50 nails pertuding from
the door. when it was all over, we looked outside and only saw 5 bodies "wow, only 5? i must be getting worse with my aim, i
used at least thirty slugs.." Mary didn't answer again. "look mare.. i'm sorry, i didn't mean it" i said as i was rubbing her shoulders,
trying to ease the tension between us from the attack. " yea whatever.." she said as she brushed my hands off her. then she
just walked away.
I then sighed. I hate it when she does this. I then rolled my eyes and walked into the living room and sat beside her on
the couch. "hey look, im sorry." i said. she just turned away." look, i only said that so you'd focus on the loonies." this time she seemed
to actually listen to me. "do you accept my apology now?" i asked. she sighed and then said" yes.." i smiled at my triumph in the matter
"thanks" i said as i sat with her on the couch. "we should really get this re-upholstered"i said. She laughed at my comment that was
completely unrelated to the conversation


here are some author notes on some questions that may be asked.
the idea for two main characters that are in love came loosly from the twilight series.
i based dan loosely from my personality and mary from some of my friends personalities. and im not saying who, so dont bug me about it.
i know that the small fight scene is very resident evil-esce but keep in mind that these people are crazies who want this kid killed so they can live.
and i got the title from some events that will come at the end. keep in mind im making this up asi run with this and i think the ending will come in from what i had in mind.. i think.
i know i used words such as ' s**t and b*****d' but it fits the character, hes somewhat hardened from fleeing for his life and hes also sixteen, so..yea.. so i hope you will enjoy this book stare if u dont i will hire an assisin to kill the populous of the world that is smiling right now..
