My name is Zion Mendoza I'm 19 yrs. old this year. I was born in a small country of Philippines.. Well that's all i'm willing to share at the moment, as for why am i writing this damn thing? that's for you to find out and for me to share... hahaha

My story starts one day like any other day as i was lazing around reading some novel like i did countless times before in my room, oh my room? You asking about my room...?

Well i have two words to this describe it (controlled chaos) in everybody's view it looks messy, well it is messy but that's not the point, my point is i like it that way period, end of story! Well b'coz it may be chaotic but to me its not, my room will always be the place i can relax, and all that mess and chaos helps me unwind. haaaaii taking a deep breath, enough about my room let's get back to my story.

As I've said i was lazing around in my room when all of a sudden everything went dark then silence like the world just stops, what the heck! i said out loud. is it a brown out? I said in my mind, i failed to notice that it's 4 o'clock in the afternoon and the sun should still be up and it should still have some light in the windows.. Jaaaaames i shouted calling to one of my housemates, i remember passing him by in the living room earlier today before i went to my room to read, no answer, joooooo he's one of my other housemate his real name is Jomar but we all call him Jo for short.

Are you there bro i shouted again, and again no answer, i thought i heard his voice Earlier guess i was wrong, where the hell is my damned phone tapping the table next to my bed where i was reading, and the place i usually put my phone, slowly feeling the surface of the table got it, huh why is it not working i clearly remember charging my phone this afternoon before i have my lunch, darn it did this thing run out of battery already no way! such bad luck now of all times, darn it "cursing in my mind" haaaaii i let out a sigh, i think i have a flashlight in my closet i was silent for a few second.....

Darrrrnn it 'i cursed again in my mind' normally it's an easy thing to do just walk right in to my closet but unfortunately my room as i describe it "controlled chaos" i clearly remember i have few things laying in my room and some of them are some unfinished glass of water that if i happen to toss over its going to be a disaster because few of my precious books just happen to be somewhere in the floor as well darn i'm screwed my prize possessions, i can't let it be damage, no way i was going to let it happen.

I rather stay here wait for cavalry to arrive or for the electricity to come back.

And as i was thinking of just taking a nap to let the brown out passed, then it happens my whole body stiffen cold sweat suddenly pouring out of my body, it feels like when you are alone and you feel like someone or something is watching you but no matter how you look nobody is there its the same feeling just amplified it a hundred time no a million time thats how i felt that day, i still got shiver every time i think about it... Moving on,

So i started sweating, a lot, and my body started shaking out of my control, my heartbeats racing fast like my heart is going to burst open or something or close to it, my mind is in chaos and i started panicking i wanted to scream but my voice is stuck in my throat i started looking around even though i didn't know what i was looking for or what, and i was there in my room shaking and sweating for no logical reasons at all,

Brrrrrrrrrrgggggggg suddenly the whole house began to shake, and from the distance i can hear things falling and breaking and in my room i can hear some of my action figures falling down on the floor, a a..an earthquake? No way!

The shaking and sound of things breaking continues on.

And here i am stuck in my bed unable to move, sweating all over, my body is shaking and shivering panicking but unable to do anything.

I feel like i'm have a cardiac arrest or something not that i know how it feels like, but i thought it's similar or at least close to that. My mind is running all over thinking of what to do next and how to get out of this situation... I force myself to move and with great effort i was able to stand.

I know i should be running for safety before the whole house collapse on top of me but instead i was standing in front of my bed quivering for reasons i don't know what, "calm down you ass, calm down why are you panicking you moron" i said to myself... Haaaaayss taking a deep breath trying to calm my mind i started to relax a little, i i i ne nee need to get out of here while shaking. i whisper, i started to walk slowly not caring if i spill all the unfinished bottle of water laying on the floor,

Thinking what the hell is going on? Whats happening? that's what racing on my mind while i'm slowly walking toward my closet to get the flashlight out, it's still pitch black and i can't even see my hands in front of me "brrrggggbb" rumbling continues and sound of things breaking but other than that no other sound there should be shouting or screaming from the people next door who are always noisy all year long and when the right moment when they should be making noise nothing except the rumbling of the earthquake and sounds breaking things and the sound of my heartbeat there's nothing,

And i should mention that no more than a minutes has passed since i started shivering for no reasons,i tried walking toward my closet using all my strength to steady my shaking legs while feeling my way toward the closet.. And then finally i felt the door of my closet, and as i was opening it to get a source of light to see what's going on i stop... Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr a growl not like a dog's growl, I've heard a lot of dogs growl every day before and after work, that dammed neighbors dog never fails to growl at me night or day, rain or shine that dog always there to growl at me whenever i pass my neighbors house so yeah u can say i'm an expert in terms of dogs growl and this is not like any other dog's growl i heard before, GRRRRRRRRR it sound more like a scapping and a little bit of flapping sound combine it with beast growl put them all together and then multiply it a hundred times and you're close to it, to tell you guys the truth i really can't describe it i just know it's the most terrifying growling sound i heard in my entire life.

And that sound is coming from outside my window just a few feet from me to my right, so yeah im scared i almost piss my pants or may i did i can't tell.. BRRRGGG the rumbling sounds continues and of multiple things breaking but that was the last thing on my mind right now even the danger of the house collapsing i didn't seems to notice at all, it's like nothing else is happening and the only sound i hear is the growling sound of what sounds like a huge beast and a THUD sounds of a heavy footstep.

THUD.................. My eyes are locked at the pitch black to my right where the window is suppose to be. And even though it's pitch black and i can't see anything at all, but my eyes is fixed on the windows i can't see,

THUD.. THUD.. the footstep is getting closer and my tears is starting to fall and my body continues to shake, and I'm losing my strength while sweating at the same time i'm shouting in my mind, i have to run and hide but my body won't listen, i just stood there like a Buddha’s statue looking at the blackness that's suppose to be my windows waiting for whatever making the most awful and terrifying growl and heavy footstep I've heard in my whole life.

The sounds is getting closer and closer and to tell you the truth i just want to whoever or whatever making that sound to come faster and get all this craziness over with, THUD.... THUD.... THUD it stopped..

SILENCE.....

there is only silence in my mind i can't even hear the rumbling anymore my sight is fixed in the darkness to my window.

GRRRRRRRRRRLLLLL.... GRRRRRRRRR... Sounds of monster growl,

Haaa haaa im breathing hard then i saw it..

A huge eye, blood red illuminating in the darkness looking at me... Then my consciousness fades i pass out.........
