A blinding flash of light coruscated before my eyes, making me wince at the colorful waves the took place after the sudden brightness. An immense, roaring pain ripped through my ribcage that made me produce an ear-splitting scream. One that I couldn’t hear myself. I began to feel lightheaded and dizzy, and I felt myself collapse to the dampened ground with a splash as the world dissolved into waves of black. So this is what it feels like to die. Every single day, this appears in my head. Every single night, I get no rest, seeing my best friend get shot. I watch as she loses more and more sleep from this nightmare. I just want to save her.
