"hey Juliet!" I heard someone call. I was in the middle of lacrosse practice so I put my stick down and turned around. A girl with short purple hair starts walking towards me.

"Hey Aleks!" I say giving her a hug. Aleks is one of my best friends. She is about 5'5, smart as hell, a senior, funny, and as she likes to describe herself, a "cool cat". She is the definition of Tumblr. Ya know the flower crowns and the hipster style. Yeah that's aleks for ya.

"So how's Nick?" She asked as she pulled out her phone. I rolled my eyes. Yeah, Nick is my brother. Aleks has a big crush on my brother. Don't tell anyone her but he likes her back. It's kinda cute actually.

"He's fine. Why weren't you at the party yesterday?" I asked picking my lacrosse stick back up and catching a ball hat my team mate threw to me. Aleks got startled by the ball.

"I was doing the homework for social on Alexander Hamilton, which may I add that should be doing that right now instead of playing Indian stick ball game or whatever it's called." She stated as I threw the ball back. "And I went to nicks game..." she whispered the last part.

"You went to nicks game? why?!" I asked. She shrugged and looked down at her phone.

"Oh my g-" She said clearly frightened by something but before she could tell me the coach cut her off.

"Miss Aleks , if you arent holding a lacrosse stick them get off my field!" My couch yelled to her. I guess I'll never know what she was scared about.

45 minutes into practice the football team came out to practice. The lacrosse team watched as they ran into the field. Then Ben ran out. He flipped his brown hair out of his face and looked my way. I gave a little smile and he smiled back. He's just so perfect, how can anyone be so perf-

"REVLON! JULIET REVLON! YOURE THE CAPTAIN OF THIS TEAM PAY ATTENTION!" my coach yelled.

"chill fam." I mumbled under my breath and continued on with practice.

1:23 pm

"...so Elizabeth Schuyler was truly..." My teacher rambled on in Social Studies. I looked down to see my phone going off.

Megan: look who is sitting behind me...;)

I roll my eyes and smile a little. Aleks is sitting to my left and taps me on the arm to put my phone away. Also, because I forgot to mention: Megan one of my best friends also. She's very sarcastic, bold, loves bands, has bright fiery red hair. Her and I are "Harry and Ron" well at least that's what she likes to call us. And of course she is the master of taking creep photos.

I start typing back to Megan.
stop creeping mega-

Then my phone shut off. I try turning it back on but nothing happens. at the same time, the power goes out. Commotion fills the room. A loud horn comes from outside which makes everyone in the class run to the window.

I look at all to see terror in her face as cars crash into each other. She looks at me as if she has seen 100 puppies die at once.

We all watch at the cars crash and stop but then a plane, in mid air, stops and starts to fall towards the ground. Within seconds the plane explodes as it crashes into a million pieces sending fire and smoke everywhere.

From here on out, there would be no power in the world.
