- The Next Day -
I woke up feeling fresh, last night sleep felt more comfortable than ever, although those screeching noise did annoy me a bit, they became more frequent than before, they've started doing that about 1 to 2 months ago? I'm not really sure but I'm sure they weren't there when this whole thing started, anyway, I got to prepare food.
*Eating noises*
Canned tuna never tasted better, good thing they can be eating right out of the can, would have preferred the spicy version though, adds a bit more spice, pun intended.
As I was seating in a chair and eating, I noticed something outside the window, with everything covered in snow, anything that moves pops out like a sore thumb. I can't really tell that well what it is though, I hope not one of those creatures, they're not too far from here which worry me a bit, for now I'm just gonna observe them, no way in hell I'm gonna go outside to get closer.
- A bit of time passed by -
I've finished eating and still, that thing standing out in the open near trees ain't moving, I'm starting to think it might just be some statue or something or my eyes are just messing with me, I'm still looking at it, I'm still looking at it, I'm still looking at it, and boom, nothing happened, guess even if the world is ending it's still reality. Wait, its, is it melting the snow around it? I didn't notice until now since I was so focused on the thing but the snow around it has started melting, does that mean it radiates heat or something? slowly but still... This is awkward as hell, I'm just watching this whole thing happened and got no one to talk about, I guess more like boring than awkward but I shouldn't be too excited, for all I know that thing melts more than just snow, but it's excruciatingly slow that I'm sure it only melts snow, I mean, I've been looking at it for the past 30 minutes and I've only noticed it just now.
I'm gonna try to get closer somehow, and somehow I'm pretty sure this is going to be a bad idea. I looked around for something — anything — I could use as a weapon. A frying pan and... a rake? Not great, but it'll have to do, although I think I should just keep the rake alone but frying pan sounds cool too so I might as well put a strap on it and put it in my back.
Holding my quote on quote weapon, I slowly opened the window and climb out of it, the atmosphere is tense, it's complete silence except from the sound of wind and distant thunder, looking at my surrounding, there's plenty of place I could ran into incase that thing isn't a statue, to my left are plenty of trees, to my right is another home, I'm just gonna open the windows just in case, after doing those I slowly approach the thing a closer and closer, my heart started pounding, pretty sure of excitement, I might as well be a psycho at this point, I'm getting near the thing and started having a better view of it, it looks like some sort of statue of someone or something standing upright, its hands both straight beside body and looked to be carved within it, now I'm starting to think it's actually some sort of statue. The melted snow around it started to widen too. Taking a deep breath I continued approaching the thing, I'm only a few feet away from it but doesn't seem to be doing or planning to do anything...
Each step breaking the silence, while the sound of whooshing wind echoes around, the roars of the sky can be heard too frequent but the creature still hasn't move, and rather than getting to near it, I decided to go around to see its other side, slowly I circled the thing, I started getting clearer view of its front, slowly...
I finally got a glimpse of its front, and it was... nothing...
Just as flat as its back, well that was anticlimactic. Its as if it's trying to replicate a human body but it could not visualize the little detail or even facial structure. It's melting the snow around it yet getting closer, I didn't feel any heat whatsoever, anyhow, this thing hasn't move or done anything, I'd also rather not touch it but I'll make sure to keep an eye on it.
- The next day -
So far... that thing is still there, hasn't move at all, the surrounding snow has melted completely which proved my theory, but... Why did it only appear now? I've been in this place couple of times and I've never seen it. Something must've been here at some point not long ago, I better start packing than risk the chance of encountering whatever those thing are, I've seen some weird shit but nothing like this.
