Someone had to say it. Virgis looks at Nathan and nods toward a car, implying they should look at it.
Virgis walks towards it when...
There is a flash of light. Virgis is thrown. He remember in the bible someone was blinded by God like this... Well that was what Virgis felt. His palms glowed. He slammed down onto the ground and everything floated a foot up for second and then down. Then it all froze. Virgis isn't just saying that because people usually say that in these things. He means, the world literally froze. Virgis looks around. The flash of light is like a sun with rays reaching out all around them, from every angle, but strongest from a group of bushes and buildings. HE looks over every frozen body, and stops at Nathan's... Then he looked to Kate. HE had friends... He could get through this... Well, he didn't know how to get through this part. He felt a surge through his veins, and it felt like they were popping and he was expanding and the world was exploding.
Then it all went to hell.
It all rewinded, and this time Virgis was thrown into Nathan and Echo, and then Virgis was thrown against the car, denting it. He lied on the ground, on his side, his vision blurry. The world spun. He thought he heard a scream, and a lost guitar strum. A sweet, golden melody lost in the chorus of millions. Virgis rolled over, got up, and stumbled around, seeing blurry images, colored dots, flashing, and a body. His head pounded. Virgis nearly fell over again, but steadied himself by putting a hand on the car side.
When his vision came back, he saw who it was. Dominique, lay dead, on her back. She rested peacefully, her hair lying spread out over the street, her left arm straight out, the right arm straight out on the guitar, holding a pick. Virgis heard a noise and tripped over Dominique's body, hitting his head. The bushes he saw were actually a row of hedges. The noise he heard was rustling. The thing he saw; Lots of movement through the hedges, towards them. Objective: Run.
What did Virgis do? Crawl, towards his friends.
(Would anyone be interested in doing a three character roleplay in this universe that would eventually meet up with these characters? Please note: This roleplay would require at least 200 word posts.)
