Chapter 6: The Desperate Search

As they set off towards Gary's sister's last known location, Peter and Gary moved with a sense of urgency. They knew they had to find her before it was too late.

The streets were still chaotic, with people running wildly and screaming. Peter and Gary dodged and weaved through the crowds, their eyes scanning the horizon for any sign of Gary's sister.

"I hope she's okay," Gary said, his voice tight with worry.

Peter nodded. "We'll find her, Gary. Don't worry."

But as they turned a corner, they were confronted with a scene of utter devastation. Buildings were destroyed, cars were overturned, and debris littered the streets.

"Maya!" Gary shouted, his voice echoing off the buildings. "Maya, is that you?"

But there was no response. Peter and Gary exchanged a nervous glance, and then they began to search through the wreckage.

As they searched, the timer in the sky continued to count down.

25:00... 24:59... 24:58...

Peter and Gary knew they were running out of time. They had to find Maya before the transformation began.

Suddenly, Gary heard a faint cry for help. "Peter, I think I heard something!" he exclaimed.

Peter's eyes lit up with hope. "Where?" he asked.

Gary pointed to a nearby building, and Peter took off running. Gary followed close behind, his heart pounding with excitement.

As they entered the building, they saw Maya trapped under a pile of debris. Gary rushed over to her and began to lift the rubble off her.

"Maya, are you okay?" Gary asked, his voice shaking with relief.

Maya nodded, her face pale with fear. "I was trapped," she whispered. "I couldn't get out."

Peter and Gary exchanged a relieved glance. They had found Maya, and she was safe.

But as they turned to leave, they were confronted with a terrifying sight. A group of people were transforming into monstrous creatures, their bodies contorting and twisting in ways that seemed impossible.

The timer in the sky had reached its final countdown.

10:00... 9:59... 9:58...

Peter, Gary, and Maya knew they had to get out of there, fast. They turned and ran, not stopping until they were blocks away from the transforming creatures.

As they caught their breath, they looked up at the sky and saw the timer reach its final count.

0:00.

As the timer reached 0:00, the alien's voice reverberated around the entire world, echoing off the skyscrapers of Tokyo, the Great Wall of China, the Eiffel Tower of Paris, the Statue of Liberty in New York, the Taj Mahal in India, and the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro.

"The time has come," the alien's voice boomed. "Half of humanity will now undergo a transformation. You will become the monsters you have always feared."

Panic erupted around the world. People screamed, cried, and ran wildly through the streets.

"But do not worry," the alien's voice continued. "You will have a choice. You will be presented with a list of options, and you will choose which monster you wish to become."

The alien's voice paused, and then continued.

"Death is not an option. If you die, you will resurrect as an insatiable monster, driven solely by hunger and rage."

The world descended into chaos. People begged for mercy, prayed to their gods, and screamed in terror.

But then, the alien's voice shouted, "SILENCE!"

And almost immediately, the entire world fell silent. It was as if the Earth itself was holding its breath, frozen in terror.

The alien's voice continued, "Good. Now, I will explain how this will work. Half of humanity will receive a notification popup, like a system view. You will see a list of monsters, and you will choose which one you wish to become."

The alien's voice paused, and then continued.
