Don't Look Up

'When the time comes, no
matter the circumstances.' I heard my mom and dad's voice in my head speaking in unison.

The sound of blood-curdling screams filled the ear mixing in with the sound of the hum. The hum seemed to sing along with the sounds of the scream.

'No matter what you hear, you must never look up.'

"No, don't look up. Don't look up. " I chanted to myself as my head touched the ground. I heard voices following mine over the hum which turned angry. The hum began to try and take control of our bodies trying to force us to look up.

It was like a game of tug of war....

And I refuse to lose.
