The Survivors Of 9/11

Chapter 7

Celeste couldn't believe that she was still alive. Everyone in the plane was dead. "Celeste, Joy? Are you guys okay!?" Celeste was relieved to hear her dad's voice. Celeste was actually glad to see that Joy was still beside her, alive. "Yes we're here! Is mom okay?" Celeste asked. "Yes, I'm here!" Mrs. Begal shouted. Celeste looked down and screamed. She was at least 1,300 feet up in the air. Joy was still crying,"How are we going to get down from here?" She wailed. Celeste heard Mr. Begal gasp,"What if we were able to just go into the tower? We could just climb over there and take the elevator to the bottom floor and vacate the building!" Everyone seemed to agree with the idea. This time Mr. Begal carried Joy over to the building. When they had arrived over, Mrs. Begal and Celeste went. They both made it over.

Celeste had looked down once or twice, but she had kept going. Then the Begals started to look for an elevator. They found one near the corner of the room. Celeste looked outside to see dozens of helicopters orbiting the building. They didn't see the Begals. "Guys wait!" Celeste shouted to the Begals,"We could just have a helicopter rescue-" There was a loud crackling sound coming from the ceiling. At first Celeste didn't know what it was, then she realized by the cracks in the ceiling that the building was about to collapse! "We'll never beat the falling building in the elevator! We have to jump out of the building!" Mr. Begal said. "Are you crazy! We'll all die!" Mrs. Begal shouted. Mr. Begal shook his head,"It'll be a less likely chance of dying if we aim for the water!" As the building started to fall all of the Begals jumped out of the building. They headed straight toward the water. Celeste knew it would hurt, but they had a chance of surviving. Suddenly, everything went black.
