Consequence

I have to warn you

By Savannah gravestonePublished 4 years ago 3 min read

I have to tell the world that I'm sorry for what's headed your way. The choices that I've made will effect you all. I knew that there were ways that this could backfire, i just didn't bother doing my research. This is something that i truly regret but at the time i really didn't care what might go wrong. I really wish i would had taken all the possibilities into consideration before i made the decision. I should have talked to someone first.

When all this started i was new to the craft and didn't know things could end up quite this bad. I had finally found real love and wasn't ready to let it go. The day i received the worst phone call I'd ever gotten, was the same day i had found the spell. By days end, my mind was made up. I decided reanimation was the way to go, but oh what a mistake.

Almost an entire month went past after the spell had been cast so i assumed it was trash. I was so wrong. It all started with everyone seeing what we thought was a ghost, standing and staring at his parents house multiple times a day. Then the sound of heavy footsteps on my porch late at night. I would hear knocking on the walls of my bedroom late at night. This went on for several months unti it began to escalate. I could smell him and also would feel something rubbing my shoulder. I would just brush it off and ignore it until he started to talk to me. The first time i realized he was completely solid was the happiest day i had ever experienced. At first i enjoyed it. It felt like he had never left. That was until I began to notice all of our friends began to pass away as well. I noticed that they would all come down with a mysterious illness before their passing. First it looked like a virus that had been going around but we were so wrong. It moved so fast, if you weren't better within 24 hours you would be dead. Some deaths were final but others became, less than people.I wish that i could go back and change my actions. Then maybe this world would have a chance. Maybe i would still have some friends to call on. Maybe...nevermind it doesn't matter anymore. We're all doomed anyway. Sorry, But i have to be blunt. I have to be sure that i am understood. If i am unsuccessful this world will be doomed . .

It's beginning to spread faster and i don't know how much more time i have to inform people. Almost my entire state has been wiped out. I've been searching for months and so far I haven't been able to find any news source talking about this. Absolutely no one is talking about this so i will warn you...if you start seeing what you think are ghosts of your loved ones, it's not...get as far away as you can. You only have so much time to find a safe place to hunker down, maybe for the long haul. they're coming for you. Please if you are reading this, show it to all of your friends and spread the word. Help me try to save the world. ( in a whisper)Oh god he's here again...he's twisting the doorknob...i don't know how much longer i will last here. Please take care and whatever you do, don't ever try to reanimate a corpse. You won't have the chance to regret it.. .
