The school looks like a giant ball of fire. as I get Closter, it gets hotter and hotter. I hear my teacher yell "David! No!" He thinks its foolish of me to try to help, and it is. I sprint for the door, and finally get passed them. I feel the fire burn my skin, and some parts of the school are falling right before me, the school is about to collapse.
"Joseph!? Diego!?" I yell, hoping for a response. I get none.
"Guys?!?" I yell, this time louder. with panic in my voice.
"David!" I hear. Its joseph, I recognize his voice. but, its weak, and sounds like he had been crying
"Joseph?" I say.
I see him, and he has been crying. His face is as red as the fire around us. Tears dripping from his face.
"where's Diego? I ask. I regret asking. He points to a pile of wood that looks like it has fallen from the celling, and there is only a hand sticking out.
"oh god, no" I say, moving to the pile.
I grab a piece of wood. It burns, and hurts a lot, but I manage to lift it out. I do the same for the rest of the wood blocks, and after a while, I get use to the burn. I uncover the last one that's on top of him, and check his pulse. His heart is beating, and he is still breathing.
"Diego!" I yell
He opens his eyes slightly.
"Hey, David. What the heck happened to your eyes?" He says. he's probably just hallucinating, he has been in a pile of burning wood for a while.
"what happened to your face?" I say back, joking. Although, his face does have lots of ash on it.
I pick him up and put him on my back.
"We got to go" I say, looking at Joseph.
He nods, and we manage our way out of the school. Once were out, we sit far from the school. we see everyone by the school, and the fire department.
"Contacts?" asked Joseph. I didn't know what he has talking about. I gave him a confused look.
"Your eyes" He says.
He hands me a mirror. I look at myself, and look at my eyes. I couldn't believe it, they're.. they are blue! I never had blue eyes, they are normally brown! Then, the blue seemed to have been sucked out instantly. They are back to brown. This was the weirdest day I've had so far.
