Ren woke up felling queasy and cranky from the party last night. He sat up to help Allisa, who was knocked out from a fallen painting. Ren got the water cup and dumped it on her head.
"What the heck!" yelled Allisa with her drenched head. "What was that for?"
"You were knocked out from the portrait," Ren said.
He went downstairs to get some tab water in his empty cup. When he did it, no water came out. "That is strange," he said. He noticed some dirt on his hands and walked to the sink. Still no water came out when he turned it on. "Now there is something wrong."
He walked to the television and turned it on, and the news was taking every channel. "What is happening?" Ren asked himself. He turned on the news and it was all about water.
"It seems that yesterday all of Earth's freshwater has been used and now there is no more freshwater." the news reporter said. "This is Today's news and we hope you can help."
