Fomo Burger

Chapter 5: CHAPTER 5



Suddenly, Fomo Burger heard a scream in the distance. It was a familiar scream. It was Sweet Burger's scream. Fomo Burger immediately snapped back into reality and rushed towards where the screams were coming from. This then eventually led him back to the group. He saw Sweet Burger sitting on a stool with her injured arm. "Hey are you okay?" he asked rushing towards her. "I mean how stupid could you be!? You got our friend group killed, you got lost not once but twice now and you nearly got me killed. I mean I love you but you need to focus" she replied. "You… you love me?" Fomo Burger said in shock. "Yes, I do. I really do, and I have for a while. I was gonna wait until after this was over, but i'm telling you right now so that you can start to properly focus" she responded. Fomo Burger was surprised. He realised that now he had to concentrate.

Fomo Burger and the others continued throughout the lab and eventually found a broken window. "Let's go through this window, let me help you Sweet Burger" Chicken Burger exclaimed. The group went through the broken window. Both Fomo Burger and Chicken Burger helped Sweet Burger climb through the window. Once they all got through the window and escaped the lab Crazy Burger noticed some civilisation not too far ahead. They had finally escaped the forest.

Once they got to the civilization Fomo Burger realised something. "Guys, this is Burgersville, we have gone in a circle" he said. "Let's go back to my house then, we can rest there for a while" Sweet Burger ordered. Sweet Burger lost her parents one year ago in a fire. The cause of the fire is still unknown to this day. So now she lives in an abandoned house on the edge of Burgersville. The group followed her and eventually got to her house. They entered the house and started to rest. After a couple minutes Sweet Burger asked Fomo Burger to come with her upstairs to talk. As they went upstairs Chicken Burger glared at them in a jealous manner. Both Fomo Burger and Sweet Burger then entered her bedroom and shut the door behind them.

"Hey what's up? Is your arm alright?" Fomo Burger asked. "No, I need to show you" Sweet Burger replied. The two looked at each other. Sweet Burger lifted up her arm and unwrapped Chicken Burger's clothing. The wound she had was leaking black liquid. It looked like the arm had been corrupted. "I don't know what's happening to me" Sweet Burger said in a panicked tone. "Is it… are you, infected?" Fomo Burger asked. "I don't know, please don't tell the others, I trust you" Sweet Burger replied. She then kissed Fomo Burger. Fomo Burger felt butterflies in his stomach. "I won't tell anyone don't worry, why tell me though?" asked Fomo Burger. "Well, you're always left out with this kinda stuff right, thought if I were to tell anyone it would be you" she said while letting out a small chuckle. Suddenly, Sweet Burger started to vomit. The vomit was pitch black and had leaves amongst it. Fomo Burger immediately rushed her to the toilet. "Hey look at me" he said "Are you okay?". "I'm fine, sorry I don't know what that was" she replied. "It's alright, maybe it's best if you stay up here for now. I'll check on you later" he said. Fomo Burger then left and went back downstairs to the others. "Where is she?" Chicken Burger asked whilst giving Fomo Burger a slight glare. "She's upstairs and not feeling too well, so don't go up there" Fomo Burger replied.

A couple hours later the sun finally started to rise. Various sirens could be heard in the distance. Crazy Burger went to look out the window. The city was destroyed. Black smoke poured out of every hole. "Hey Fomo Burger" Chicken Burger said "you know this is all your fault right?". Fomo Burger felt a shiver go down his spine. "You killed all of Sweet Burger's friends, you nearly got us killed and I mean look at the state of the city. All of this because you decided to break the amulet" Chicken Burger stated. The room went silent. Sweet Burger then came downstairs. She had rewrapped the piece of clothing around her arm. Chicken Burger stood up and walked out the front door as soon as she came down. "Fomo Burger, are you alright? I heard all what he said" Sweet Burger asked. "I'm fine" he responded after a short pause. The room then went silent for a while. Suddenly, Chicken Burger burst through the front door. "DUCK!" he yelled. A massive branch with thorns crashed through the window shattering it. The tree creature was back.
