Chapter 1 Mutation

*Beep*

[General message]

'What is this?' Eri stopped walking at the sign of this holographic projection.

And from the looks of it he wasn't the only one to be experiencing this dillema but other people were viewing this purple holographic box.

--

[Welcome to the selection process. I am your host and wonderful monitor in this series of plagues. So I beg of you....]

[Make sure to scream very loud when you die]

---

Eri's breath held itself, what sort of help was that supposed to be? It looked as though a prank but felt so real.

Some people were already ignoring this however Eri payed all attention thanks to his curiosity.

---

[You will now experience the first plague and the end of your race. For those that can evolve and do the needful, they will become stronger while others that fail will die]

[For those that did not ignore rejoice for rewards will be given for a good listening ear]

[Die well]

*Splink*

With that the hologram dissapeared leaving Eri with so much confusion that he had his mouth drop.

Just as he thought, just a prank.

Feeling a bit of sadness and confliction, Eri made his way to enter a retail supermarket shutting the door behind him.

The people in the store were so few and they were kind of disoriented.

Wait, why was that?

Eri ran his mind through every possibility that could have occurred and found one. The broadcast was worldwide..... That meant this wasn't a prank and.....

*BOOOOMMM!!!*

The clouds instantly became dark pouring down raindrops heavily.

This sent another confliction to Eri. The weather forecast hadn't said anything about rain earlier did they?

"Phew, thank God I got in here if not I would be soaked," He was glad at that fact turning around to continue with his shopping but his eyes caught a clue that put him on edge.

The rain was somewhat pink?

Not only was rain falling but pink rain at that fact. Now something was truly off.

*SHWIMMM!*

And like that the rain stopped all of a sudden.

Eri gulped hard knowing a storm as heavy as that wouldn't just stop all of a sudden. He got a bad feeling from this.

"Shit, what the heck is happening?" A beefy man who had bought all his goods bumped into Eri in an angry pace to leave the supermarket. "That rain gave me a scare."

Eri felt a sudden urge to stop the man from venturing outside but knew he would get smacked or insulted if he did. So what was the harm in letting him be, it wasn't like anything could happ.....

"AHHHHHHHH!!!"

*SPLOOOSH!*

Not making a feet from the door the man was being tackled down to the ground by two other men.

That was not the fact that shocked the people watching from the stores but the way the two men behaved. First of all their skin looked rottened and filled with purple disgusting veins, their action was to bite the man like animals ripping him apart quickly.

What jolted Eri the most was the record time they used to devour the man, just a minute or two and the man was a pile of bones and intestines..... And he was beefy!

Taking faltering steps back Eri was already having contingency plans.

From what he saw and the knowledge he had concerning movies, this were...

*Ding*

The automatic door opened itself displaying it's welcome sign to the two mutated men that devoured the beefy man to enter.

At this point everyone had broken into panic, some were even frozen but Eri only watched in horror noting this was the end of the world.

His world and his hate for Automatic doors were at the pique of expiration.

"Mum, dad, sis, I guess this is the end."

In the next moment the Mutated men made their move pouncing onto the people and ripping them apart one after the other until the supermarket was painted red.
