Glumps

DAY 1: i know that none of you are probably going to believe me, hell i wouldent believe it if i was reading this, but i HAVE to get this out to the public. It began like any other day, i ate breakfast, hung out at a friends house, ate lunch, went home and eventually made myself dinner. but it was around 10 o’clock at night that i started hearing strange noises…almost like, a plane being flown overhead the house but very vaugly. now i live in a 2 story house, patio deck in front of a lake and i live with my mom, my stepdad and my little brother who had all gone off to bed. but i didnt think anything of it, it was probably just a plane? well it was about 10:30 before the noise stopped and i was on my x-box360 talking with some friends and playing video games like any other 14 year old boy would do. it had been about 2 hours, 12:30 at night that i decided i should probably go to bed, so i shut down my game and turned out the lights, and i was just about to head upstairs when i saw…saw this blinding light shining through every window, i instantly blacked out. being shaken awake by the sound of a powersaw, i was again blinded by a light overhead of me, but my eyes quickly adjusted. i was laying on..well i dont know what it was, it was almost like a surgical table, i was strapped down tightly, and was i saw sent true terror into me, i can’t describe what they were, those bastards, they had a human form, 2 arms, 2 hands, 2 legs, 2 feet, but…on each hand and foot contained only 3 fingers and 3 toes. i dont remember much else about it, except the feeling of a needle going into my arm.

i awoke in my bed sweating, “was that a nightmare?” i said to myself still breathing heavily. “yea, just a dream…” i sighed to myself laying back down. when i rolled over onto my side i felt a sharp pain that almost made me jump out of my bed. my arm felt as if it got stabbed by a kitchen knife. but when i looked at it, there was no marks what so ever, im a little worried guys i dont know whats going on.

DAY 2: ok guys im a little freaked out, i went to the grocery store with my mom to get some milk and eggs and while my mom was walking towards the dairy section i looked over in the candy isle and…and i saw something, nothing i had EVER seen before, it was almost like an ape, it walked like one and had black fur kind of like one, but it was smaller than an ape, about the size of a normal house cat, its face looked exactly like a humans but…upside down and it had no fingers, only a stub at the end of its arms, but it had feet, feet that looked like a normal primates. i dont know if what i saw was real but im starting to get a little freaked out.

DAY 3: something is wrong, something is terribly wrong, im seeing them everywhere, those, those things! i dont know what they are or what they want but NOBODY seems to notice them, ive seen them walking on the sidewalk of streets and even in a persons car in the back seet! somebody please explain to me whats going on!

DAY 4: they arn’t real, they can’t be, i SAW one walk through a person, as if it was a ghost! they can’t be real, they just arn’t! DAY 5: one of them touched me today, walked right up to me as if it was a god dam monkey and reached out and touched my leg, i felt it, i was the ONLY person who could feel them, or see them. i’ve been searching the internet for hours looking for some evidence what so ever that i wasn’t the only one who had heard of these things, but so far i haven’t found a thing. week 3: it’s been about 2 weeks since i have last written about this. i’ve been seeing more and more of them lately, as if they have been here all along, i’ve been locked in my room for the past couple weeks, the only time i come down is for school and to eat dinner, even at school i’ve seen them, in the lunchroom and even the bathroom once, just sitting on a sink, looking at itself in the mirror. what do these things want? week 7: it’s been 4 weeks since i’ve last written. i have been studying these things, i’ve named them “glumps” because thats the only sound that they ever make “glump, glump, glump” i’ve figured out that they are herbavores, the only time i’ve seen them eat is when they are in a field, eating the very tall grass, i even built up enough courage to hold one of them, it almost…nustled into my arms like a purring kitten. it was extremley weird and made me feel pretty uneasy considering how ugly these creatures really are. i feel like im going crazy with these things everywhere and nobody seeing them but me.

month 2: it’s been about 2 months since all of this started, i havent felt a need to write about the glumps until now….people are starting to dissapear. i’ve been seeing less and less people on the streets, and even at school it looks like kids are missing. and the really unnerving part is…nobody else notices the missing people. as if…they never existed.

month 4: there are very few people left in the town…who knows maybe the entire world is having these occurences too. but all i know is that this town used to be populated with over 3,000 people, now all i’ve seen is about 30-45….i’m getting more and more frightened by the day. month 7: everybodys gone…my friends, my family, even all the animals are gone, im in a world alone with myself…and the glumps, they keep trying to touch me, to get me to hold them, i wanted no part in it, i stole every food item i could from the grocery store and locked and boarded my house, ive been in here for over 2 and a half weeks, my food rations are getting low i’ve been having to eat less and less each day just to survive, i can’t handle it anymore im about to just end it all. month 9: im all out of food and drink…i found a gun in my dads drawer with 3 clips, i’ve loaded it all, i’ve got the gun to my head…i’m about to end my life.

as i wrote those last few words i pulled the trigger and all i saw was white…for about 2 minutes, then i felt like i was being pulled out of something…a pod almost. “jimmy! jimmy are you ok?” it was my general. “whats going on?” i said confused my eyes still not adjusted to the light. “jimmy you just exited the simulation of a possible alien encounter for your last test as an astronaught, you lasted 9 months, a lot longer than most people, with which you would make excelent survival. you passed.”
