A town about 100000 people live here many lived life as usual although something strange began happening people began disappearing

Not a lot but they did notice them missing especially some veterans that live their people were on edge not wanting their children to go outside since they feared they would be kidnapped

Now we focus on a single person

Jake Frensby a collage student that mostly didn't go outside of his home, work, and school

Jake

Man I'm tired why does work, have to be so hard why do I have to clean up if they mess up man

Oh well at least out side is nice and cool with a breezy wind almost winter

I walked by the park nothing interesting not many kids go outside nowadays

Mmm might as well go on the swings

Will swinging back and forward

'mm what should I have for food today last night I had beef jerky very good today some rice'

Walking I passed my neighbor's house, old veteran named Martin always was very stubborn and grumpy but never hated that damn now I miss him not in a wired way just thinking about the good old times

I wonder if my roommate is home already or still at work

Walking by the side walk I saw an ant hill

Ha what if I just like kick it. Naw it's to mean they spent months building that

I can't wait until I get home play some games enjoy the afternoon and then go to school

I work mostly morning for the afternoon is for school

Arriving at the door I went in and saw it was still a mess

'jesus I need to clean'

Before eating or anything I went and got the broom to sweep the kitchen and the other rooms.

I left a note on the fridge for my roommate

"Your turn to clean the dishes"

I made my food and went to watch some TV after half an hour I hoped on the game mostly strategy games and some COD just to pas the time

Ring ring

My phone was ringing some one was calling

"Hello how is this"

"Hey Jake today their won't be school as sum unexpected events have happed on school grounds"

" What happened hello ..." The phone cut off

Huh I need to call Stewart maybe he knows what happened

I called him

Ring ring

And no answer damn I called again

He pick up

" Hey I'm at work" and hanged up

Ah that's a relief he's okay

I'll just wait until he's on his way home

Now I don't have school so I can lazy around

Looking around their was just game and cleaning

I of course choose games I don't wanna clean I already did my part

After a 2 hours I called Stewart again

" Yo you know what happened at school"

Stewart " nah didn't know they cancelled by the way imma be working all day today some people just don't want to work you believe that"

Jake " haha I hate when they be doing that shit like common I have a life too just work your hours and go home"

Stewart " Fr they be tripping but hey positive I get more money"

I ran to the door

' damn if the cut the water it be more tomorrow i need to run"

After paying

Damn like this we won't be able to get a car but water is important ah

I went to the couch and started to seeing the news on the TV

8:00 news over the last two weeks people have been disappearing because of these disappearings the gangs of the town have started to grow and become more active they have been having gang wars and the police have started to become affected with shootouts happening the Major has asked the military for help

This is getting worse how can they let it get like this

The good thing is that we don't live close to the gangs territory but I'm sure they will expand to our direction

Well enough news time to sleep I have to go to work tomorrow

Going to my room and straight to sleep

....,...

Next day

Jake woke up nothing new hearing his alarm moving his arm to stop his alarm but he didn't reach it his eyes slowly opened still groggy looking around noticing that his bed felt more cold and confy

Wh-at is this looking around I noticed my covers weren't here mabey they fell down that has happened before and the alarm it sounds louder than before why is that what's going on

I walked towards the edge that was supposed to be my bed only to find more I jumped down and kept walking seeing where the end would appear

Slowly I started to realize something "did I become small"

This question kept running throug my mind

And finally I arrived on the edge looking down I saw the wooden frame and the floor it looked so low like when you go to a bridge when you look down or a mountain

'im stick here I'm stuck'

Panicked struck me ' I need to find how to go down immediately'

I kept walking down and up

Then I remembered my phone it should be on the top near the corner I ran and ran until I got there looking at my charger it would make it to the furniture and to the floor yes I need to find food survival is needed
