"Haah! Haahh!" I'm running and following Lewis to the evacuation center.
I looked up to the sky as the light changed to a transparent boundary. Its appearance is like a grid pattern, like a fishnet but three-dimensional. We stopped in our tracks as the boundary hit us from the top as the floor and some of our classmates that were hit by the boundary emitted light and passed through our bodies like a wave.
After the boundary of the cyan light hit us, a transparent cyan panel appeared in front of our faces.

"Analysis?" One of our classmates muttered in a shocked expression.
What is this? Is this one of the Isekai genres I have heard about? System? Integration? No is this one of the popular Gate Apocalypse popular manhwa stories that I have read in my free time?
"LEWIS! Let's run NOW!" I shouted at me with a terrified look. His face was sweating as if he understood the words in the panel that appeared.
We all ran, and I checked my phone to see if something changed. I noticed the network signal was gone. Did the light act as an EMP or something?
"Paul, what is your understanding of our situation right now!" Lewis asked me while running. The sweat dripped on my face with fear and exhaustion.
"I have read a couple of stories about this. I think something bad is going to happen all over the world. " I answered with an exhausted voice while running.
After running almost a hundred meters I think. We stopped running and ran out of breath.
"SHIT, we have to hide in a shelter right now!" I exclaimed with fear in my voice.
"Paul what is happening right now!" Mia and the other two classmates who were with us while cleaning asked me this difficult question.
"I have a vague hypothesis and I th-." I answered their question but the cyan panel appeared once again. The previous panel disappeared simultaneously as this one appeared.

My worst fears have come through. Golden lines traced the shape of our bodies, scanning our heights and sizes, stretching over buildings like glowing veins in the air. But where red lines appeared, the world seemed to twist and groan, preparing to rupture. Luckily we don't have an i-.
"Save m-m+!!!!" Cleo, who helped us clean the classroom, had red lines all over his body. His body twitched uncontrollably, deformed like some kind of monstrosity. The clothes he was wearing changed colors in a sickening pattern similar to an oil spill in the ocean.
Mia, Pria, and Leah puked at this as they witnessed this abomination of a creature.
I struggled to breathe. Every cry, burst of light, and hideous shape burnt into my memory, transforming it into a chaotic haze. Was this real? Was this the end? Or was I already dead, locked in a nightmare I couldn't wake from?

"RUNN!!!" Lewis's voice trembles as he says it in a loud and terrified voice. I snapped back to reality, my face dripped in a cold sweat, and I ran.
"節存ಉvБы...ы!!!!!!" His voice mixed with agony, pain, and anger all at the same time.
We ran back to where we came from but the same is happening to them. One of them is in a liquified state as if that creature's bones have never existed in the first place, and the other one is like a gem in a geode as if his body crystalizes and continues to expand and shrink.
"LET'S HIDE INSIDE THE BUILDINGS!!!" Lewis shouted immediately, but our friend Pria pointed to the top of the buildings, and we saw the debris of buildings floating mid-air and glitching almost as well as the sound of explosions reverberating in the buildings as well.
My face and mind blanked as I saw a giant figure made of human flesh and taken the form of an arachnid above us.
We can't survive this.
"RUNNN NOWWW!!!" Lewis screamed at his throat as he commanded us to run fast.
We ran forward to get away from that thing above us. We ignored the dead bodies lying in the road. The debris of the building continues falling as the road gets narrower. My face turned white as I saw a wall of flesh screaming with multiple voices reverberating in my mind.
A tear flowed in my eyes seeing this monstrosity.
"SNAP BACK OUT OF IT EVERYONE!!!" Lewis screamed loudly, snapping us back to reality, and continued to run to the right of the junction.
I ran out of breath but I couldn't stop running. Not now, I still have something to do in this life. I don't want to die!
A concrete wall fell above us as I leaped on my side to avoid the wall. As I turned back, Hammel, his legs!
"BLUUAAACGHH" I puked. The blood on him was scarlet red, and my vision started to blur.
His legs were crushed by the debris as Mia and Leah tried to help him.
"Hammel! I haven't confessed to you yet! Please..! PLEASE DON'T DIE ON ME!" Leah
sobbed her heart out as she tried to let Hammel out of the debris he was stuck on.
"Leave... You have to... Get out of he.. re." Hammel's voice weakened as his body is loosing blood to a terrifying degree.
"Mia... Please.."
"Alright." Mia grabbed Leah out of there as Leah tried to get out of Mia's grasp.
"NOOO! HAMMEL!" Leah screamed loudly as her face was covered in tears trying to save Hammel.
"Leah.. I love you." Hammel confessed his love to Leah as his voice began to fade away.
I rushed forward to both of them and unshackled Leah's hands to Hammel.
"Tha.. nk Y.. ou.." His eyes fade as his arms fall to the ground.
He's dead.
My eyes widened seeing my classmate, who was with us, died in front of me. I closed my eyes as I bowed my head.
Leah sobbed uncontrollably as we dragged her away, her cries cutting through the chaos like knives. Both of my legs moved on instinct, my mind was blank—Hammel’s lifeless eyes burned into my memory, a friend of what we couldn’t save.
