Dead and Beyond

It was a cold morning in September 1982. There was a new toy store opening on this very day, but the ad advertising this toy story said r16, so there was not much of a turnout.

The toystore was called 'Dead and Beyond'. It was filled with toy figures with guns and swords. There was only four of us in the store and we were all aged between 16 and 17. The other three were nerds. I was the only one disappointed with the shop because it didn't have anything I liked.

The lights flashed off for a minute and I heard gunshots and the screams of other people.

When the lights came back on the man who was at the desk in the corner was gone and I found the other three dead.

I turned around to see a gun pointed at my head. The last think I heard was a gunshot and my head hit the floor.

Darkness fell upon me.
