The year is 2036 the streets of New York have been littered with the bodies of the perished for days yet knowone looks at them, no one sees them, no one except one man.
The man sat sipping his Hot Chocolate out of the polystyrene cup that held it. He remarked at how cool it had become in such a long time despite the snow outside. He watched as the people passed by laughing and joking whilst they bought their christmas shopping but all it brought was a sad smile to his face. It was in this smile that the man of around 26 looked so aged. His black hair seemed to lose it's colour but his eyes burnt with a cold steel. The man was called Marco not much about him was known other than that he had once been involved in a secret government operation but he seemed to now be showing signs of schizophrenia; people tended to leave him be thinking he'd gone mad but he knew they would be exactly the same if they'd seen what he had, if they could look into his mind. He looked at his drink as the steam slowly coiled out of the cup, looking up as a bus walked pass them his face was struck with a sudden fear, as he gazed out the window he stared into the eyes of a young girl. Her face was covered in black dirt, her pink blouse stained with her blood as she clutched a simple brown teddybear that had droplets of blood drop slowly onto it. She looked at him without blinking and pointed to him. Marco lept up in fear, spilling his drink over the table, he looked at the spot she had stood in but it was empty. He looked around at the puzzled faces before running out of the shop. A dark figure hidden under his black baseball cap simply watched him silently before starting after him a few seconds later.
