As I balance myself on top of the spaceship, then took out one of those foods left in the space ship, it was a space cracker apparently. I ripped open the wrapper and bit into the piece of shrunken bread.

I thought about Gumi, her beautiful brown eyes and soft hair, how she always comforts me whenever I was hurt in any way as if she was my very angle protector, healer of my heart.

I have always wanted to be her protector.

But now I can't, I'm trapped, and I broke my promise.

I must've broke her heart too.
I've done the worst,
how terrible a man am I?

I though as I rumbled with laughter, my chest seems to be heaving in burning pain.
Why.... Why?!?!?!
My howls of laughter cracked and broke off, hot rivers of sadness washed my face as I buried myself within my knees, whimpering, sobbing alone on this lonely planet of nothingness and death.

As I sobbed, a crack caught my attention,
It sounds like as if something was stepped on, someone or something stepped on one of those rocks.

Crack

I spun around, my eyes widen in fear.
Is that the monster?
The rumours.... are real?

Crack

I spun to my right,

Crack

I spun to my left,
and quickly to the right again.

I was stunned,
there it was
the 'thing'
the monster.
It's black body swam in the air,
It had no eyes yet I can feel it's cold hard stare upon me.
Black mists covered most of it's body, only claws and it's face to be seen.

I gasped,
It stretched out its arms and began plodding towards me,
Calmly and evenly divided steps.

Crack

Crack

Crack

I stumbled and crawled, racing into the spaceship and locked the door.
Cold sweat ran down my cheeks,
fear.
I quickly began rummaging the place for a suitable weapon to guard myself,
and maybe even kill the thing.

As I was cramming through the things left, loud screechy scratches begun to shriek into my ears, it must be the monster.

I found a fine cutting knife and a few long sharp ended pipes.
They could've be good enough, at lease for now.
Slowly I creeped towards the door,
I want to kill that thing that killed my friends.
I have to,
Because of it my fellow friends died one by one.

Because of it I have to leave Gumi.

Because of it I am stuck here dying.

I slammed through the door in rage.
