Skeletal Arms

Hello my name is Pluto and I work at Dark Magazine as a journalist. I have been feeling strange for a couple of days ,and I do not know why. But…. one day I go to work and I feel energetic ,but exhausted at the same time. I have been having this itching sensation on my forearms ,but did not think much of it. After an hour of having the itching sensation on my forearms, I decide to take a look to see what was irritating it. I see it for the first time that my arms are turning into… a skeleton. I can see open flesh floping against the bone ,and blood soaking my shirt. There was just a big slit down both forearms that were just bone with two things of flesh just hanging on by threads of flesh on each sides of my arms. I scream loudly to get someone’s attention and,well, that did not work. I pull the sleeves of my shirt as high as I could on my arm to show someone that something was happening to me. I walk out of my office and down to the boss’s office to show him. When I got there and showed him, he thought I was insane and thought that I should either go to therapy or go to an institute for help. I could not get anyone to listen without them looking at me funny, so after a couple other tries, I decided that I was going insane or something. I went to an institute to get help from someone.

A couple of years later they finally let me out. I went though a killing spree and killed lots of people because of how angry I was at people for not believing me about my arms.To this day, even though I am in jail, I still have to live with the smell of rotting flesh and itching sensation on my forearms.
