"Mister Frank.. Are you sure that thing's dead?"

Frank assures me, walking inside the evacuation area I hesitantly asked. Some areas had clusters of broken up cement and metal piled up. Frank takes a ladder and looks up at the broken and open ceiling, small snowflakes slowly descending down. He sighs, I look around and finally see the murder drone's corpse, seeing it up close.. was a bit scary but my curiosity was bigger than my fear.

Just as when I was about to touch it.. The lights flickered abruptly.. And eventually it was pitch black. Frank held out a flashlight but when I looked back at the murder drone it was.. Gone? 

I heard a loud screech behind me. I quickly turn to Frank only to see him get pierced by a metallic limb.. Driven to fear I froze on the spot.. I wanted to move, I wanted to run. But why can't I?! I'm about to die. I closed my eyes knowing well that it was my end. 

I never imagined that I'd die to some kind of monster.. But I hated the idea of dying without my questions answered and my purpose unperceived.
