Within In

D-Day again?

I am sure that I died yet I woke up in my room, I stared at the white plates of the ceiling while my heart was beating as if I was seeing a nightmare.

Quickly, I raised my upper body to check the door that was brutally blown off just to find it in its place, while "Arsenio" was sleeping soundly in his bed; I was confused but then I remembered how I was revived before, so I grabbed my phone and checked the date.

"October 09th, why? it is the D-day"

I thought as I jumped out out of the bed to open the TV while I was hoping I would see no bad news but again, I was at dismay, the news was full of dark monsters invading the whole world and crushing people mercilessly.

"Am I immortal?"

I wondered as I froze.

But there was no time for this, I have to wake up "Arsenio"; so I rushed to him and yelled:

- Wake up! they are here.

Just like last time, he shouted in fear:

- What?

At that moment we heard screams and crushes sounds from outside; "Arsenio" quickly got off his bed and looked outside from the window, his eyes widened in fear as he took few steps back and muttered:

- You were right; I can see them.

Then he covered his mouth and continued:

- What shall we do? I do not want to die.

His words made me remember, he died in front me twice already but I decided that it shall not be thrice.

I quickly held the toy that worked last time and contemplated it trying to figure out what was special about it, but I could not figure out anything; the clock was already ticking, the "Damar" we faced last time was going to come at any moment.

But nothing came to my mind and the "Damar" had already blew off the door.

"Arsenio" screamed but I did not waste another second, I threw a toy but not mine, I threw "Arsenio's" tidy bear while filming the whole process with my phone which I was holding with my other hand.

And as I expected, it did not work.

"Arsenio'' shouted in fear:

- What are you doing?

I ignored his question as I quickly grabbed my car toy, the one that defeated the other "Damar" last time and threw it at this "Damar".

It hit the "Damar" very lightly,  but the aftermath was tremendous, it bend in pain, made a loud humanly cry that gave me shivers, the purple electric waves turned to navy before its huge body hit the floor making a loud bang sound.

I took a step closer while still recording everything with my phone in my hand, I touched the body lightly with my foot and it did not move, it was dark and dead.

This time I was determined to show the world that I was able to defeat the "Damar" but not for the glory it was to give them hope and because I needed help, I may be smart as people say but I have never finished any accomplishment alone, I was always inspired, helped and supported by everyone around me even if they did not notice it.

"Arsenio" kneeled down to the body while wondering:

- It looks like cloth.

I smirked and said:

- "Arsenio" you should decide whether you are a coward or brave.

He defended himself, loudly like a child:

- I am not a coward, anyone would be scared of those monsters, I mean who would not want to live, but once I felt safe I had to understand what are those monsters and this is when I noticed that..

I interpreted his nagging:

- Sorry, no need to get mad, I was just wondering.

Then I zoomed in the camera because I know what was waiting for us.

"Arsenio" pulled of the mask off the monster, and a human head showed, but this time was a different person because the "Damar" we defeated last time was at the toy store.

And of course "Arsenio" shouted while I simply stopped the recording; he looked to me, terrified, and asked:

- Its a human, why are you so calm?

I replied:

- Did I tell that I lived this apocalypse before?

"Arsenio" stared at me with eyes widened and answered:

- Yes and I did not believe you.

I shrugged and said:

- I saw this before but this time I will fix things.

I uploaded the video of the whole process on my social media and wrote:

"I defeated a monster, I threw a toy at it as you see but only one toy worked while every other toy that I tried before did not affect it, can anyone explain this? also it turned out that we are not facing new monsters, they are human wearing a mystic suit"

I pressed "post" and hoped that anyone would be able to help me in understanding what had exactly happened.

Although everybody was busy surviving some were able to do some crowdsourcing, aside from the questions, astonishment and side chat analysis, a lady with a foreign name asked:

" From where did you but this toy"

I thought that this was a good question before I answered:

" From a charity fund collectors here in New Jersey"

Then a minute or two passed before he posted again:

"May be that is the difference between this toy and any other toy, it was a product of a good act"

Her reply made sense, because before the apocalypse the news were filled with nothing but violence, discrimination, hate, terrorism and wrath.

I thanked this person and started to write a new post:

" Update; those monsters can be defeated by...

But then I remembered the m******e I caused last time so I deleted the post and decided to make sure first of the how effective this idea was.

Here "Arsenio"  wondered:

- So what we do know?

I replied:

- If this is true, we can either hide in this room and use charity tools to protect us or we can go out there and find out the source of "Damar".

He looked as scared as a stray cat yet he said:

- I will not stand by and watch people die.

As I expected from the most considerate person I have ever met, I smiled and said:

- Then lets go and test our theory.
