On Friday, April 5th, 2018, 30 km north of Tisdale, Saskatchewan in Canada, there was a fatal crash involving the junior hockey team called the Humboldt Broncos and a semi-truck driver. There were 29 people involved in the crash, including the semi driver and the people aboard the bus.

15 dead.

14 injured.

And at least 2 in critical condition.

In this short story, I will try to reimagine how it would feel, being on that bus, at that time.

This is the story of the Humboldt Broncos.

My prayers go out to the families of the deceased and the living. I pray for the physical and the mental health of everyone who knew them. And who are them.

You will be forever in our hearts. Never forgotten.

*Currently Editing!!* "See? Isn't it beautiful?" she whispered, breaking the comfortable silence between us, her voice soft and full of awe. "Yeah." i whispered, my gaze still locked on her. "It really is." She looked at me, a puzzled expression on her face. "You're not even looking at the sunrise," I smiled, gently brushing my thumb over her cheek. "I know." β€’ β€’ β€’ Emmalyn Ansley may seem like the epitome of sweetness and humor, but beneath her warm exterior lies a world of pain that no one sees-not even those closest to her. Despite her outward strength and fierce independence, the reality is far more complex, as her body bears the hidden scars of a life that has been anything but kind. On the other hand, Mateo Ellis is the embodiment of cold indifference. Hardened by a life devoid of love, he presents himself as a ruthless, self-serving young man who trusts no one beyond his tight-knit circle of friends. He's never known what it feels like to be loved, and he has no desire to change that. But when these two seemingly incompatible souls collide, the result is anything but predictable. Will their meeting lead to mutual destruction, or will it spark something neither of them has ever experienced-something that could change their lives forever? πŸ…#1 in Mental Health 14.07.2024 πŸ…#1 in Abuse 15.10.2024 πŸ…#1 in Addiction 05.02.2025 πŸ…#1 in Trauma 15.10.2024 πŸ…#1 in Fighting 25.10.2024 πŸ…#1 in Panic attacks 15.10.2024 πŸ…#1 in Shooting 27.02.2025 πŸ…#1 in Sad story 02.06.2025 πŸ…#2 in Depression 06.11.2024 πŸ…#2 in Overprotective 06.11.2024 πŸ…#2 in Bad boy 05.02.2025 πŸ…#2 in Loss 05.03.2025 πŸ…#3 in Sunshine 09.10.2024

...We were so caught up in the shared moment of care free joy to notice the midnight grey Toyota pickup truck speeding directly towards us. Meters before impact dad finally caught on to what was about to happen, despite it being day the approaching vehicle's headlights blinded us as our cars breaks slammed on, the sound of the tires melting away as the rubber tires scraped against the pavement filled the air and the scent of burning rubber overwhelmed my nostrils, despite our efforts the brakes didn't slow us down, we were to late. There was nothing we could do as we collided head on..." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Attempt two at writing a book lmao, summaries without spoilers are not my strong point but here you go: After a tragic child hood accident Astra is left utterly alone, forcing her to make a massive move across the states to live in Tennessee with her grandmother. A few years pass and Astra finds it difficult to deal with the trauma she experienced as a young child, but surrounded by friends and throwing herself into education she starts to heal, until she meets Jason. In the beginning Jason was a kind, caring guy who seemed genuinely interested in getting to know Astra, but not everyone is who they seem to be. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TW LIST!!!!

Berkley and Dean had been best friends since they were in diapers. They were so close they could finish each other's sentences and had never spent more than a week apart in their entire lives. They grew up together because their Dads were best friends and co-owners of a fishing boat company they had started up together after college. Dean had always looked out for Berkley and tried to protect her from getting hurt by guys that had bad intentions, and she trusted him more than anyone else in the world. That's why, when they went off to college together and she decided she wanted to experience sex for the first time, she couldn't imagine doing it with anyone else but him. She wanted her first time to be with someone special, someone that meant a lot to her that she could trust. Dean refused at first because he was afraid it would mess up their friendship, but he eventually caved when he found out that refusing meant she was going to do it with a guy that he hated instead. He was so protective of her that he finally gave in. The deal was, it was just going to be one time and they'd go back to being just friends after, like it never happened. The problem was, they didn't think through all the consequences that came along with having sex with your best friend. **** Warning!

My superpower is invisibility. Not by choice. It's the only way I know how to be. Until the cute guy on the bus shows me how to fly, but there's a catch. And it has nothing to do with me being the one who can see him. But sometimes falling feels a lot like flying. And I don't know if I'm ready for either. Prompt 20: You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me."
