9/11

I wrote this short story for my english class so it's a little raw. The assignment was to write a small story about nine/eleven with us being a part of the event. This is from my point of view and I wasn't really a part of 9/11 haha. I got full marks for it so I'm hoping y'all like it ! :) BACKGROUND ON 9/11: 9/11 happened on September 11th 2001 (hence "9/11"). The Al Qaeda terrorists hijacked three planes and flew them into the two World Trade Centers (commonly known as the "Twin Towers") and the Pentagon. The Al Qaedas also hijacked a fourth plane, but when the passengers found out what was happening they over ran the terrorists and decided to fly the plane into an open field in Shanksville Pennsylvania instead of letting the hijackers crash into their target; which is believed to have been the White House. In total 2998 people died that day, in Al Qaeda's attempt to "wake up American citizens".
