Bucky looked at the tv, and it was now 9:03 AM when the south tower was struck.
"Daddy why did that plane do that?" Bucky said
"Oh my God! Jules!" Winnie screamed as she found her phone.
She began to frantically called Juliette, and Colin's phone not knowing that one of the planes that hit the tower was Colin's flight to LA. James began to call his father on what was going on.
