(Savannah p.o.v.)(b.b. time one day) {b.b. means before bomb times.}

"Adelle how much time do you need?" I told her.

I was not in the mood to wait because things weren't exactly in my favor.

Than a man walked into the front gate. Devin snuck up behind him With a knife.

"I have a message for you." He said as he walked uncomfortably close to me. Devin was ready to kill him.

"Haley says there is no running, there is no hiding and are going to be dead by tonights sunset." He said.

He turned around to walk away but Devin jabbed his knife into the guys gut.

"We have to leave." Said devin.

"I have a person in mind who may provide us some shelter, but he really doesn't like me." Said Adelle to me.

After she filled us in on the plan we quickly packed up and left. We were off to the home of Jeremiah.

We got there and a boy named Tristan. Spoke to us through the door but refused to open it.

"Please we need help, let us in." Said Adelle through the door.

"I would but there would be no promises I wouldn't kill you so take this opportunity to leave cur." Responded Tristan.

"Please let us in." Said Savannah.

"We can let you in but not Adelle. We have... bad history." He said.

"You guys can go and I will fend for myself, its fine." Said Adelle ready to leave.

Devin walked up to me and whispered " If these people are legit that I think this is our best option."

I nodded but felt bad for Adelle.

"Stay near the home." I told Adelle as she took off.

Tristan let us in but instantly knocked us both out with help from a girl. When we woke up we were locked in a room, doors made of thick metal.

We got up and started looking for some kind of weakness in the door. I was focusing on the doors detail and the loose bolt. It was too tough to get a grip on, Devin began knocking softly at the walls.

"Here." He said as he kicked the wall. A hole formed and he kept kicking until we could fit out.

"After you." He said.

"Don't be so nice." I sarcastically while stepping out of the wall.

I walked around to the front door and saw Adelle was sitting on the front steps.

As I was about to open the door it locked and the house security system said "lockdown protocol 2.9.45 active. Take cover in the secret area."

I saw a giant missile hurdling towards us and so did Adelle. I was desperately trying to open the door to save her life.
I slammed, yanked, and banged on the door. Than the bomb got extremely close and Adelle back up and waved bye.

The bomb hit and the impact was so abrupt the house shook and everything in it fell. A shelf hit my head leaving me dizzy and not able to see clearly. When my eyes focused back i than saw something so new, so disturbing,... total destruction.
