City Blackout

It was a normal afternoon in the city, cars usually driving, kids at a park or two, people late rushing to work. It’s the usual type of day you would have, although there was still school and kids would have to go to it including me. I always thought school was a waste of time and i still think it is because you can look anything up on the internet very easily, but i'm forced to because of my parents saying they want me to have an education. As I walked down the long street crowded with multiple people rushing past it was like you couldn’t see anything if you were short, as I was getting near my school I went to a coffee shop but got a donut instead of coffee. I always thought coffee was disgusting because of the taste, once I left the shop I was right around the corner from my school, one of the worst schools you could possibly go to. People would either ditch school or wouldn’t do anything or the work given. As i sat down at my chair while the amount of people in the halls started to shorten and disappear the bell rang and school begun with the long torture ahead of it. As i started to fall asleep it got darker like i was fading away of some sort, but until i noticed the lights were out and there was a weird feeling going through my head, it felt like i was pushed by someone- no something. Everyone started panicking and running around and pushing each other, some were calm some weren’t. Everything was chaotic until multiple crashing noises started to happen outside, i thought it was cars most likely which it was of course. So many things started to happen at once it was hard to actually understand what was going on. As I started to make my way out of the school the teachers tried to stop me but I disobeyed what they said and moved straight ahead trying to get to the exit. There were barricaded and blocked by purpose but some on accident from the roof. I found a way out up to a roof and see what was outside and get out of the school and finally see what was going on. Once I got to the roof it was like an apocalypse had started, or some type of virus got out. Although there was still light outside, it was cloudy and everything was destroyed, buildings had shattered glass in them, some seemed like they were going to fall apart, people were running away from something or someone as more cars started to crash. It felt like an outbreak had started which is what I thought, but it was no outbreak people said. There was no sort of communication, not even my phone would work, maybe it was a shockwave possibly, or even a government EMP. i didn’t know what was going on until jets started to fly around the city, until a jet crashed into a building, my building. As it started to fall over it hit my school and i almost got caught with the collision. I started to head home as the sun started to set down. I didn't want to be stuck out at night where anything can happen at a time like this. As i ran to my house i forgot that i had to use an elevator to go up, i was hoping the building was fine so i wouldn’t get crushed. since the whole city power was out i knew that i can’t use it so i went up the stairs. As I walked I felt like I was being showered with thoughts: why did this happen, why here, my mom ok, what’s going on, so many things I couldn't think straight. I finally arrived at my house but no one was there. Well no one should be here because we don’t have a dog, i'm guessing that my mom is still at work but i could never know. I lived up a bit on the 4th floor which was not as high but good enough where I can get down to the first floor easily. I looked outside and there was no sun, it was pitch black dark, not a single thing to be seen. For about an hour or more i didn’t look at the time but nothing serious has happened in a while well not that i sought of. There was still no power on my phone, it was like living in the dark because I couldn't see the news, any stories, I couldn't contact anyone. it was a matter of time before something else happened. I couldn’t think of anything else to do, i was about to go to sleep but i had a thought, what if everyone evacuated but i didn’t go with them, what if this all happened on purpose, maybe someone was targeting this place maybe i should leave. As i packed some things getting ready to leave i started having some last thoughts before i left. Once i went down the stairs to the first floor there was something moving on the street, with all of the cars crashing into each other i was surprised, i tried to catch up with them but they disappeared into the darkness nowhere to be seen. I thought to myself this was the best choice I had, maybe the emp had shockwaves in the city still so maybe if i left the area my phone would work. I wanted to find answers about why this would happen, it may sound dumb but maybe this was a test, maybe this is all fake, what if it is? I started walking down the street away from the city hoping for help or something. Until then i never knew what was ahead of me and what was going to happen, i guess i just had to give it a try, before i fully left i found a stick on the ground. I decided to use it and put a sleeve on it like some type of grip on a sword just in case something happened, I walked off ready for anything that came into my way, i’ll find my mom soon….
