Entry for the 27th
I woke up this morning way too early for me. My mom's phone was ringing constantly at 4:30 in the morning. It went of three times in a row before I finally got around to dragging my ass out of bed to answer it. And when I did... nobody's there. Typical. I didn't think anything of it at the time, but later, I would come to realize that as the pivitol moment in my day.
I re-awoke at 7:30 to go to class. I did all my normal routines, showered, got dressed and put in my contacts, and that was when I noticed something was just not right. I couldn't see anymore, and I mean... damn I couldn't see crap. So, I took my contacts out again, and I could see clearly. Strangely, somehow, my eys were corrected, and I had perfect vision again. Thrilled, but weirded out, I hustled out the door, late as usual.
As I got into my car, I noticed the lighting outside was strange, it seemed to be getting darker by the minute as I drove. I looked at my cell phone, maybe I was 12 hours off and didn't realize it. Nope. 7:45 am. By the time I got to school, it was pitch black out. I started to think, maybe its a solar eclipse. So, scanning the sky, I looked around and all I saw were stars. Thats when I noticed the sky wasn't black for night, but almost greenish in hue, and the stars shown almost red. This went way beyond my comprehension and I really began to worry something terrible had happened. I stopped a few people I passed to ask them about it, but they just looked at me funny, like I was an idiot for asking them a stupid question.
As I walked along to my class, I noticed most everyone was going about their normal buisness. Then I noticed one guy, standing around looking up. Approaching him, I was about to ask him when he spoke up first. Looking right at me he said "What the hell is up with the sky today?" I just shook my head and told him I was as perplexed as him. We started talking about it, but niether of us could come up with an explanation for it. Intorducing ourselves, it turn out Gary lives on Campus and had woken up and run out the door late, like I had been, only to realize, something wasn't right with the world.
We decided that we'd better stick together for the time being, and ignore the fact that we should be in class, because well, this obviously wasn't normal and class could wait. Most everyone we tried to stop and talk to about it, just brushed us off and we even got a few snide comments about how this was completely normal and we'd better just stop wasting thier time.By 10:00 we'd found two other people that were as lost as us, Shawn and Amy. The four of us just hung around campus for a while, and then decided we'd better get indoors, cause people were starting to stare at us as they passed us by. Every now and then people would pass by us and start whispering.
We all ended up in Gary's dorm room. We tried looking info up online, but found the only info we could get said this was perfectly normal, the way things were every single day. At this point, we were completely lost. So after much discussion, in which we all talked abou what we did that morning, we found a common thread. It turns out we all got strange phone calls at 4:30 in the morning, and there wasn't anyone on the other side. Also, it turns out that we all had some sort of "disability" that was cured when we re-awoke later this morning. We each tried calling our folks, but none of us could get an active line, and Shawn was the only person to get through, ended up with a wrong number, at the correct number.
We turned on the Tv, figuring we'd better get as much info as we could as to what we were dealing with, and the news is always full of good info. Nothing interesting was going on, except for scattered reports of people "claiming" things were different to the local authorities, which prompted their immediate arrest for making false claims. So, at least we weren't the only ones, but anyone who reported anything were being arrested.
The next couple of hours went by very slowly as we watched the news reports increasing, unitl finally, the President had issued a state of emmergency, local officals were to arrest anyone whom seemed to think the normal natural way of things wasn't correct. By 5:00 that night, thousands of people across the country were being detained, and scientist feared some epademic was sweeping across the country.
Scared to do anything, we sat around, too afraid to eat, to afraid to try and get away, not that there was anyplace to go. at 6:00, it started to get light outside again. And, by 7:00 the sun had peaked over the horizon, but the sun shown purple, not yellow, and all the colors outside seemed to be just slightly of hue.
Its now 8:37 PM. Its full daylight now, and we're still sitting here, the four of us. None of us can reach our parents, or anyone even remotely related ot us. We've found several new internet sights with info on whats been happening to us. Some of the others like us seem to think that our brainwaves have been altered and we're seeing things differently because of an inaudible noise we got in that mysterious phone call this morning. Other theories are that we were taken to a new planet, or that we've entered some dimensional gateway through cell phone usage. I don't know what to make of it. All I know is I have to write this down, so that way someone, somewhere, someday, might read this and figure out what happened to us. If you have any more information about what's happening to us, please, email me and let me know.
Hold on a second. Gary's cell phone just rang for the first time today, in fact its the first time any of ours has rang today... He didn't recoginze the number, and we're afraid to answer it so he let it go to voicemail. Oh... there goes my phone, hold on...
... ok, we've turned our phones off now, all of our phones just went off all at once. Amy's trying to find some info about that online right now. This is way to creepy for me.
... apparently, the phone calls are on everyone's phones that recieved the same call this morning. Some have answered it, some haven't. Noone's heard from those that have answered it. Its late now, almost 12:30 in the morning. Its still sunny out, if you can call this sunny. Gary seems to think we should turn our phones back on and answer them. I'm for it, because it can't make things worse than they already are. The cops are going door to door, or so the news says, arresting anyone suspected of being a "Turnie" as someone named us. I don't get the name...
... We took a vote between the four of us, and only Shawn is against answering the phone, and I drew the short straw as the one that gets to answer the phone. So, here goes. Ok, my phone is on... and there its ringing now. Here goes nothing...
