 I woke up to the shouting of nurses. Oh great what had happened now? I blink dully and look around. A kind nurse with the name Darcy printed on her little card rushed around my bed in a flurry of shouts, medical supply's and white uniform. I stared up at the celling in annoyance. It was a dull grey. Huh thats weird. Last time I was here it was a light blue. Hmm maybe i was in a different ward. I sat up and looked around at my surroundings. It was all different shades of grey and white. The curtains were white and the bed was white and grey. No color to keep things sterile I guessed. The nurse Darcy had left at this point, tittering in her high pitched voice that I wasn't to have any visitors. I scolded at this and lay down to sleep. It wasn't long before i was in La-La land. I dreamt of a kid who was in an accident and lost their sight. I was so real that i woke up with tears in my eyes. I had to know it it was true. I called for the nurse and stared up at the now dull grey ceiling. She arrived and immediately asked if something was wrong. I said no and proceed to ask her about my dream. “ oh honey I'm sorry but it was real”, she said sadly. I suddenly looked at her and froze. Her once brown hair was a dark grey and her skin was almost white. “ Sweetie that was you. You lost your vision in an accident the other day. You have been diagnosed with monochromacy and will never see true color again. It has no cure but you can use color blind glasses to help you. But you will have it for the rest of your life”. 

Monochromacy - comes from the Greek words of mono ( one ) and chromo ( color)

 A car beeped its horn and i woke with a start. The hum of the radio and the other cars was oddly comforting. My best friend was humming along to whatever song was stuck in his head. I yawned and stretched in the cramped space. “ oh your awake! We're just about the airport so we will be there soon. Then you can sleep on the plane”, he said smiling at me. “ thank god!” I sighed. “ I haven't been sleeping and its annoying to sleep at 8 am and wake up at 4 pm”. He laughed. “ girl you gotta fix your sleep schedule”. I laughed and rest my head on the window, watching the scenery go past. It was pretty. And calming. We pulled up at the airport and unloaded our bags from the back and the taxi drove away. We walked inside and began searching for out other friends. Now all of my friends were guys and the one I was with ( Zach ) was gay. Zach had never met the guys and I wanted to see what his reaction was. I pulled out my phone and pulled up the group chat with the text on where to meet up. Under the sign for the gate we were going through. Gate 14. And true to their word there they were. Jay sitting down on the floor, nick and Luke were chasing after each other and getting a ton of dirty looks from others. William was quietly reading something on his phone and Karl was taking photos probably for memorabilia. I ran up to them and gave them all hugs. I came back for Zane and dragged him over. “ guys this is Zach. Zach this is Luke, William, Karl, nick and Jay”, i said pointing to each person in turn. Zach smiled and waved. Soon enough we were boarding the plane to Huston, Texas. Why? I dont know. We were actually going to Florida but wanted to pick up Michel in Texas then drive over. When the flight was over i stood up and stretched after another long nap. The guys were quietly talking and i was glad to see Zach was fitting in nicely. In the car it was absolute chaos. The music was loud, William was eating and driving. Karl was hitting nick and I was hogging the aux cord from Luke. Lots of photos were taken and lots of memories were made that trip.

The cat went into the void of endless sadness. He didn’t want to but the dog said “ there will be endless amounts of fish and catnip”. And he was sold. He leapt into the abyss and was never seen again. The dog chuckled and walked away. “ now mum and dad will love me more”, he thought as he went back inside his doggy door. But boom suddenly the cat came flying out of a magic portal with a magic carpet, a mansion, a limo, and a girlfriend (which the dog would never get). The dog was outraged and sad (he’d never get a girlfriend. Never have never will) “Boohoohoo” the dog screamed as he looked upon all the little kittens and the mansion and the limo with lots of little car seats for all the little kittens. The dog had never had a girlfriend let alone puppies.

 This all happened because of a disastrous rainy day in 1869… It was a cloudy and wet day. Very bad weather if you ask me. Two humans were walking along the pavement, dodging puddles and other humans. But these humans were special. They came from 2021. Yes, they were time travelers here to destroy the world with COVID-19 because they hated their great grandmother-in-law on their uncle’s girlfriend’s aunt’s side. The woman pulled out a vial of the deadly disease and dumped it into a giant river. A little pup was thirsty and went to the river bed to inhale liquid. But of course, there was a virus in the river and suddenly the said pup became immortal, could talk to cats, and was able to open pocket dimensions. But on the downside, he was so ugly that only the time travelers ever adopted him (spiderman style). 

 The terrible end
