"11th of May 2025.
Dear Diary, this is my first entry.
I don't know if I should make these long or short; I heard that these help you vent your feelings or something.
It feels pretty weird..
But nothing much happened today, college has been a drag; as always.
I guess I'll just write these every day. But that's about it."
Caleb closes his Diary, he sets it on the desk.
He stands up and stretches a bit.
Caleb Dunn is a 6 foot 3, brown haired, 21 year old college student. He has a bit of stubble, and has blue eyes. He comes from a middle class background with two parents.
He stares out of his window, he notices there is still sunlight. He checks the time on his phone, "16:23". He thought it was later because of how slow his classes felt.
He decides to text into the group chat he has with his friends.
Caleb:"Anyone tryna meet up?"
Anna:"Naw"
Dan:"Where?"
Alex:"Sure"
Caleb:"The old fountain?"
Dan:"👍 "
Alex:"Aight"
Caleb sets his phone down.
He puts on a coat and laces up his shoes.
He gets there pretty fast, and checks his phone to see any updates.
15 minutes pass.
'Tch. Did I get ditched?'
He goes back into the group chat.
Caleb:"Guys?????? Where r use??"
He doesn't get a response.
He decides to give up and head back to his dorm.
On the way back he decides to check on Alex, to see what he was doing.
He runs up around 3 flights of stairs; he gets to room 202.
He knocks...
No response...
He notices that the hallway is awfully silent.
"Al-"
A door is smashed open and flies off of its hinges. Behind the wall Caleb hears a faint guttural growl.
A staggered being of blood and ripped flesh stumbles out onto the hallway.
'What the fuck!? what the fuck!? WHAT THE FUCK!?'
Caleb stumbles up and tries to run.
The being starts chasing him... It's faster...
Caleb gets to the stairs and hops on the rail, he slides down and when he's close enough to the ground he jumps off and rolls to the door.
He barges out and intakes his surroundings, he looks up to the windows.
A window gets smashed and a guy is thrown out by the thing.
The guy screams as he falls, he plummets to the ground in a pool of gore.
Caleb, holding back his gag reflex, immediately calls the police.
"911 whats your emergency?"
"U-Uhm there there there is this th-thing that j-just killed some guy..."
"Sir can you describe the assailant?"
But Caleb had dropped the phone, as the thing jumped out of the window and landed in front of Caleb.
Then Caleb witnessed something... The guy who died stands up and starts growling, half his head split open.
Caleb immediately starts running away, but the things are faster.
"HELP! HELP! HELP!" He screams in desperation.
As he's running he feels something warm and liquid-y land on top of him.
He looks up to see a guy ripped in half by one of the things.
Caleb couldnt keep it in, he vomits on the ground, but he keeps going.
'Should I run off campus? God Dammit!'
Then he turns a corner to see... Alex?...
"Not you too..." Caleb reaches out his hand to Alex who's become one of them.
He stares for a bit; but it broken out of the trance by being slammed 5 feet in the air, his ribcage caving in.
Caleb reaches out and grabs onto a ledge on the side of the building he's next to.
His arms ache but he grabs on.
He climbs through an open window.
A guy reading a book is on his bed.
"Hey man who the fuck are you!?" He exclaims.
"There's some beasts outside k-killing people!" Caleb exclaims.
"Crawl right back out of the window boy!" The guy rolls his sleeves up, clearly poising to fight.
"W-Wai-!"
The guy punches Caleb in the face, breaking Caleb's nose.
'Shit! Now I'm fighting a human!?'
The guy throws another punch, Caleb ducks under it. The guy stumbles forward and Caleb kicks him to the window.
"Look at those things!"
The guy starts trembling.
"W-What are they!?"
"I don-"
A brick is flung into the guys skull, its lodged in there, splattered with brains and blood.
The guy; dead; falls out of the window onto the concrete.
