MISCREATED

My name is Jaxon. And today started like any other day.
I went to work at IKEA like usual. The drive was boring. Very cold on a March morning, radio blasting
and the heater dialed to 11 as I tried to forget about my shitty job on the 10 minute commute from my house to IKEA. I was thinking of stopping off and getting Brady some McDonalds or something, the boy never eats. But I didn't have time, I'd be late, and my boss wouldn't be so happy about that.

Everyone at work was a total dick to me, besides Brady and June. Brady, 17 years old, still a Junior, really cool kid. He's into drugs though, not going to lie and act like I haven't bought a gram or two from him.

June is some 40 year old woman who treats us all like her own children. She's great. Cares a lot.

Now there's the people who hate me. My boss, Mrs. Hare. 30ish, complete psychotic bitch. Probably sleeping with Brady.
There's Tom, an asshole who thinks he's attractive so he's constantly taking pictures of himself, and Peach. Not sure if that's her real name but she's just a dick to me for no reason.

Today, things got really strange. I got to the store, clocked in, things went as usual for the first few hours. I was restocking lamps, Peach and June were off looking at some chairs and talking about something, Brady was getting high off his ass in the break room, and Tom wasn't there. He called in sick. Things went pretty usual for a bit though. Peach was a complete bitch whenever she came within 15 feet of me, June kept giving me compliments, and my boss was busy dicking around in her office. Then, it happened.
Around 10 AM, Brady came out stoned out of his mind, stumbling around the break room entrance screaming "CREATURES! CREATURES!" at the top of his lungs. At first, I didn't get what he meant at all. I thought he was having some weird episode. Then he pulled us into the back room.
The TV was on CNN. Some news clip was playing, a picture of a strange silhouette in the corner.

At around 5 AM this morning, a sudden wave of mishapen and rather disturbing entities closed in on New York city, killing 1,400 in the process, injuring thousands more. These things seem to be extremely aggressive, and the military is advising that everyone stay inside. The wave is beginning to spread across the US, reports coming in from Chicago and Wyoming currently. Stay indoors. Do not go outside. Do not look in the mirror.
