A/n: I think you all know what happened in Nice. A van crushed 84 people to death, whom there were 10+ kids. I'm going to say this, how has humanity stooped so low?

Btw, I'm French so I wrote a little something. Also, the change of tense in what I wrote is normal.

If I were there, what would've happened?

I would've been there, waiting impatiently for pretty fireworks to burst into colourful lights, and to capture this moment in order to find a little joy in my mundane life.

My friends would've shouted a few excited words over the sound of the crowd, but I wouldn't have heard.

I would've gone to get some ice cream from a van, knowing full well that ice cream had a lot of calories.

I would've counted down the minutes and seconds to the release of the bright colours in the sky.

Then, I heard screams, no not of excitement, but screams of horror, pain, confusion, fear.

I turned around and was greeted with a burst of colour.

No, I thought. Not this. I didn't want this. I didn't want any of this. I don't want this. I don't want this. I don't want this. I didn't ask for this.

I screamed with my eyes shut and covered my ears, trying to block away the noise of my friends. The sound of the crunching bones, the blood sloshing, the terrified children, the hushing of the mothers rocking their child back and forth telling 'tout va bien' over and over again.

I opened my eyes, to see my vision tinted in red, my hands, were dripping, dripping with red. Everything, everywhere was red. My dress, my shoes, the floor, the bodies. I looked up, and the only pure white van I had seen, had been sullied with the colour of blood. It's raring eyes, mustered with power, glared at me.

So bright, I thought. And with a brilliant light, a pain hit me, square in the chest. I fell. I heard my own bones crack, my feet, my legs, my hip, my ribs, my neck. I could only see, in my blood-tinted vision, the corpse of a little girl, dismembered, shrivelled, bloody, lifeless.

So young, I thought, before my vision blurred and I sunk into my own pool of blood.

Pray for Nice.
