Martians came to Earth

I remember, it was a Monday when they came on Earth saying they had a vaccine against Covid-19, "One tablet and you will be vaccinated! No need for a shot!” That was their argument.
Everyone believed them, trusted them. It was decided that they would first "vaccinate" children...
When they entered my classroom, all the students stopped breathing, they looked like humans! Yet we all knew they were not.
They came from Mars, everybody had seen their flying saucer land in the stadium.
The scariest thing was when they started talking. They spoke English in a very high-pitched voice. They approached my English teacher to supposedly vaccinate her, but instead they ripped her eyes out and a wave of blood flowed from her eye sockets. Then they ate her guts like a pack of wolves . It was so disgusting that everyone shouted in terror!
I was very scared, and maybe the Martians could smell fear because when we began screaming, it was like a signal for them, they threw themselves at us ready to kill us. I braced myself and sprayed one of them with hand sanitizer. He jumped back and began to liquefy.
For one minute, I thought “I can kill them!”. But it was just a dream…
Then, the Martian started to recover. He doubled in size! He got close to me. I knew I had to get away, run, and scream but I was paralyzed
Someone in the room screamed, 'it's war! Chaos!' That Martian was only a few meters away from me … If I hadn’t moved, I would probably be dead today!
I remember when the Martian stretched out his hands to rip my eyes out. I thought about my family. At the last second, my body moved and suddenly I was running for my life.
I ran on to the corridor, which had never looked so frightening, since the lights were no longer working. I went to the staircase but then, I saw a lot of Martians coming to help the monsters who were in my class.
Then, I was convinced all was lost.
My teacher was dead, maybe a lot of my classmates too, that new pack of Martians would enter my classroom and kill the survivors, no choice: I had to stop them.
I shouted at them to attract their attention. When they saw me, they hurled themselves at me. Then I ran out to the other side of the corridor and I rushed to the second staircase.
I went to the lockers and hid myself in the corner of the room between two lockers.
When they came into the room, I pushed a lockers’ rack to crush the Martians. When I was sure that they were dead or unconscious, I left my hideout and went to the street.
Everything was upside-down, some houses were burning. There were a lot of dead bodies, I still tremble when I remember that moment.
Today people still hide.
No one can go out without risking to be killed. We have trusted the wrong persons, we are trapped! Formerly, Mars Attacks was a good reason to laugh, now it is true the Martians are here, and humanity is in danger!
Perhaps, one day they will go away or we will find a weapon which can kill them.
