A SCARY NEW WORLD By Rich Ornelas.
Chapter
Two What’s Happening?
What’s Happening?
After making damn sure he is not speeding while driving
home,he starts looking though the huge windshield on his big Ford cargo van, and sees
in the distance several helicopters flying around with those big bright search
lights. Then he really gets worried because those choppers are in the direction
of his home. Many things are racing through his head right now. Are my kids ok?
I hope everything is OK.
He gets his phone and try’s to call Debbie his wife,
and there is no answer. He doesn’t really freak out, because this has happened
before. Sometimes she forgets to bring her phone into the bedroom.
There have been several times he has called to wake her up to make sure the kids get on
the Bus in time. There have also been several times he ended up having to rush home to take them to school, because she forgets
to turn on the alarm or; forgets to bring the phone in the room.
At this point
he is still about 15 miles away and gets a call from someone claiming to be
from FEMA. He is saying to himself. What the hell am I doing getting a call
from FEMA? They start asking him questions like, “How many bodies can you fit
in your van? And do you have a facility to store bodies?” at this point Nelson
is really freaking out. He does have a storage facility that can hold up to 45
bodies. So he tells them my van can haul three legally. The person on the other
line then says, “How many can you fit; in your van?” at this point Nelson is
sweating bullets, and he answers with a very almost inaudible voice, “10 or 15
depending on the size of the people.” The person on the phone says “OK thank
you, and keep your phone on we may need you.” When he hangs up the phone his
heart is beating a mile a minute and says out loud “WHAT THE HELL IS GOING
ON?”
As Nelson is driving home cautiously, keeping his speed
limit under the legal amount, he looks out of the passenger side window
noticing that there are several cars and people in that parking lot of the
mall. After looking a bit more he notices the helicopters are above the mall
flashing the bright lights on all the people and cars in; that parking lot. What in the sam hell is going on, and who are all these people? After looking a bit more he sees that they are all
dressed in black uniforms with large letters on the back of their shirts and
jackets that read UN. Oh shit! It’s happening. He forgets about the speed limit and
punches the gas to get home.
He pulls in the drive way and is half way out of the car
before its even in park he gets back in and puts it in park runs to the front
door shit! I forgot keys. He runs back to the van. Are you fucking kidding me
he locked the keys in the van. No Biggy, I a spare set behind the bumper. He
gets the spare after it took him 5 mins to locate where it was at, opens the van
door, gets his keys, and runs in the house.
The house is dark as he is looking
for the light switch; he hears the dog walking down the hallway. She wants to
go outside to go to the bathroom, so he opens the door for her and runs to the
back room where his wife is sleeping. Sits on the bed and starts to try and
wake her up. Honey… honey… with a very groggy voice says. What’s up? It’s
happening… no response honey wake up! We have to go. She sits up in the bed and
says, What’s happening? The UN troops are just a few miles away in the parking
lot of the mall, and they are getting ready to do whatever it is they are going
to. What? She says, what are you talking about? Honey we have to go now! I’m
tired babe; I’m going back to bed. No you’re not, you’re getting up, and we
have to get the hell out of here right now.
She gets up, goes to the fridge, gets
a glass of water, and sits down at the table. Now what the hell are you talking
about? Look, I went to the hospital to pick up a body, and I had to wait for
like an hour in a half. The dispatcher told me there was something going on in
the ER, so I walked over there and it was full of people that have been shot
and God knows what else. There were ambulances everywhere. On the way home I
seen several helicopters flying over the mall, and when I looked to see what
was going on in the parking lot, there were 100s of people standing all around
what looked like a bunch of armored vehicles. When I took a closer look, I seen big UN patch's on the backs of their shirts. And on the way home I was listening
to the radio, and all that was playing on the stations was a repeated message
stating everyone needs to stay in their homes… BOOM!! What the fuck was that?
Debbie woke right up after that. Was that a fucking explosion? OMG babe; Debbie
says, let’s get everything together.
As she was getting the food and water situated,
I turned on the TV and the same message was playing on the TV as well. Stay in
your homes a nationwide curfew is in place anyone caught outside their homes
may be arrested. What the heck is going on? He walks to the back room and tells
her what the TV was saying, and at that point she looked at Nelson with a very
scared and concerned look on her face.
He went outside opened up the shed and started removing all
the camping gear and survival stuff. He walked to the back of his van pulled
out the cots he had in there and put them in another van. He started loading it
in the van,then his phone rang, and without thinking he answers it. “Mortuary
removal service, how may I assist you?” then that same woman that called him
earlier said she was going to text him some addresses, and that he needed to go pick up
these bodies. His heart was pounding so hard he could not even talk. He said Ok to her and at that point she hung up.
He ran in the house with such a scared look on his
face and tears in his eyes. Honey he cries out, I forgot to tell you something else that happened to me while I was out earlier. What did you forget to tell me? FEMA called
me when I was driving home, and asked me a bunch of question like how many
bodies can I fit in my van, and if I had a storage facility to store the bodies.
What! Yes they just called me a minute ago wanting me to pick up some bodies.
Just as he said bodies the texts start come through. He starts opening the text
messages. His wife looks at him and with a very stern face says you are not
considering going and picking these bodies up are you? I don’t know what I’m
going to do honey, but I know this, if this is a total invasion and I don’t
help it’s going to go harder on us. Are you out of your mind? We need to go
right now and get to the bunker. Babe we have been planning for this moment for
years. We knew this was going to happen, granted I did not think it was going to
happen this soon, but never the less its happening, and we need to go now. Ok,
ok let’s do this, they are still several miles away, keep getting things ready
and I am going to go to this first address, and see what’s really going on. I
will be back and we will leave. What! No! You’re not going anywhere. Honey if
we know what’s going on we will have a better chance of getting out of here. Ok
I still don’t think its good idea but go ahead, and please call me if anything
happens and we will just leave in the other van. Ok he says he runs back to the
other van and grabs the cots he had just put in that van and gets them back in his van, And he drives away.
