“Attention, passengers. This is your captain speaking...”

I awoke to the voice coming from the airplane’s general speaker system. With eyes still closed, I tried to focus on the announcement.

“... all seats should be in an upright position and your tray tables closed. You will be informed of any extra precautions as needed. I apologize for the inconvenience...”

The woman beside me was already buckling up. “Heavy turbulence,” she said.

I nodded and fumbled with my own safety belt just in time before the plane jolted sharply, eliciting panicked screams from the passengers. When oxygen masks dropped down, a horrible thought struck me. The situation was freaking serious.

Another jolt moved me to quickly put the mask on, then a flash of light blinded me, followed by a deafening blast.

I could remember nothing else after that.
