I screamed out to her, no reply she lay motionless on the floor a pool of blood surrounding her body. I sheilded my Eyes, River my little sister shivered in my arms at the site of our mother. I hugged her tightly as a large smash came from down the hall, and the crying stopped. I knew they were gone and if this didn't stop soon so was I.

I heard a loud crack and then the roof collapsed in, River gave out a scream and I hugged her close to me. This was the end I had no idea how short my life would be until I heard the very last words from mother: "You cannot predict what will happen today, only remember the days past yesturday." and with that a tear dropped into the dusted ground.
