Prolougue~~

I couldn't believe this was happening.
Everything and everyone around me was moving real slow, people screaming, kids crying, running feet. I blinked so many times. Pinching myself... telling myself "its only just a dream".
I heard a small whimper and sniffles coming from some part of the room over all the loud sounds . I looked over to the seats; where I was sitting some half and hour ago, and there I found the source of the whimpering and sniffles. It was a little girl.
I got down on my knees so I wouldn't look like a big monster to her.
"Hi sweetie, whats wrong?"
She removed her little hands away from her face. And began to speak.
"My mommy"... She said between sniffles. "I..I cant find her". She started to sob even more. The tears came rushing out of her big brown eyes. I brought her into a tight hug.
"Ill help you find your mommy ok?"
"ok"
I was happy to see a small smile spread across her face. But that smile quickly faded. I turned around. I heard a ear piercing sound. And there I saw it, something small was heading towards the building. I couldn't quite see. As It got closer I made out its image. It was an airplane heading straight towards the building. Screaming and cries escalated. Thoughts racing through my mind
Everything went black
