20 or so minutes had gone by when I snif, oh no...the CAKE!!

It was burning, I went into the kitchen, crap. No way, this couldn't be happening, I looked around the flaming kitchen. Horrified, there was so much smoke that I couldn't see anything, except the huge, billowing flames coming towards me, I ducked, a long slithery flame came towards me touching my face. My neck. My amrs. I screamed with agony as wrenched away. Away from those flames, away from my worst nightmare. Reliving everything, my brother screaming in pain, my mum screaming at me to get out. Everyone screaming for me to get out. Screaming for me to get my brother. Screaming for me to get Caleb and get out.

I slammed the door in rhe face of the flames trying to get me, to burn me, I tried to run to the phone. I tried to run up stairs. But I was stuck, fearful and scared in the middle of the living room, TV blaring, the flames were going to be in this room soon, in the room that I was stuck in, unable to breathe, unable to move, I was stuck.

That was when everything went black and there was nothing. Nothing at all. It was peaceful not having to think, not having to worry, not having to see, not having to smell.
