We were driving in the woods, all I could see were trees... TREES EVERYWHERE!

I turned to Katy and said,"And if you look to your right tour, you will see wonderous trees and if you look to your left you will see more wonderous trees!"

We giggled. I looked out the window again.

"Hey Katy look a deer," I said.

Then I saw it run out in the road in front of the bus.

"OH NO!" I screamed.

The bus swerved and fell off the road, I looked over and saw a girl and boy fall out of a window as the bus rolled over and over.

I heard glass breaking somewhere in the bus and I screamed.

I felt my own window break and a piece of glass cut open my cheek.

I heard other kids screaming around me and a few more kids flew out the buses back emergency door that had flung open.

I did somersaults and hit the floor.

Darn school buses for not having seat belts!

There was still screaming but it was getting fainter and fainter and then all I heard was silence.

Everything was still....

I groaned and saw smoke from the bus.

I tried to sit up but I was limp so I just lay on the bus floor until I felt myself get feeling back in my legs and arms.

I heard a moan from under the bus seat I was sitting on before we crashed and looked under it.

"Katy!" I screamed.

"Julia!" she screamed back, "Help me out of here," She said.

I grabbed her arm and pulled trying to get her free from under the seat.

After much pulling she was finally out.

We looked around and saw no one.

I stood up and so did Katy.

Although we were wobbly we could walk.

I walked to the front of the bus and saw a bit of red hair on the bus floor between the seats.

"Emma....." I whispered.

I rolled her over and saw her pale face.

She used to have Bright, cheerful green eyes, but they were now dull and lifeless.

I checked for a pulse and didn't find one.

I looked over at Katy and shook my head.

We both teared up.

We didn't know her for long but she was still a living, breathing human.

After a while we got ahold of ourselves and started walking around the bus.

I found my duffel under the steering wheel in the front of the bus.

There was no driver so I guessed he smashed through the windshield during the crash.

Katy found her Dark blue duffel on a broken bus window and grabbed it also.

Then she looked at me.

"What are we going to do Julia?" Is all she said.

I just shook my head because I had no idea.
