The last thing I remember is walking home from my friend's house. It was so dark it was like an abyss, darkness swallowing around me but  with shallow patches of lights due to the street lamps that I pass every now and again that guide me home but besides  that I could barely see what was in front of me.Maybe I shouldn't have been walking in the middle of the road at night?  ...Because the next thing I know there was a blinding light and then pain , so much pain almost like it was glowing red inside of me. I've never felt anything like this before and then  it became peaceful ….I woke up on the side of the road that was now filled with light and noise. Ambulances and cop cars filled the area stooping at least 50 feet ahead of me..What happened?How did I get here?Also who is hurt?I searched the crowd and the cops were putting some lady in handcuffs… maybe a drunk driving accident? I ask these questions to myself.Maybe I should get closer to see what is going on?....I walk over to where all the paramedics are. One is talking on his radio ....”um hello what's going on, Is someone hurt”?I try to get his attention but it was like I did not exist like I was air he was looking through.I sigh in annoyance…ugh i guess i should try and get closer since he wont tell me…
