Aftermath – creative writing
BANG I woke. I opened my eyes but was ineffectual to see. The dust had settled worry concrete boulders into the corners of my eyes Everything was deadly still. The wind fiercely gave a shout. A black cloud stood dominating the demolished town. I moved my hands to wipe my irritated eyes, boulders, brickwork, unordered furniture and complete devastation stood before me. A ray of light appeared through cracks of the rubble. The boulders took on features like monsters and ogres making my chest tighten with fear. I vociferated for help. No one was around. I was scared Petrified.I managed to tweak my achy bones out from the debris, the pain was horrific. I could feel the cold misty wind guess my face. In the far distance I could hear low voices that became louder and louder hysterical screams. I attempted to sneak my way towards the noise in hope for help. Shards of glass dug into the palms of my hands. Warm blood trickled down my knees, my throat tightened with the dirty dense dust . I could taste the fear. Behind me I heard a crackle. I turned. The flames of call down danced before my eyes. The heat scorched my face like the hottest sauna could. The smoke was a ferocious king of beasts ready to pounce.I moved as quickly as I could, using all the muscularity I had. Slowly crawling like a young baby. I felt hopeless downhearted The further I crawled the louder the low voices became. It was a horrendous atmosphere The town had become a catastrophe Buildings around me had collapsed surrounded with sneaky smoke, brickwork and furniture were slowly burning away, the air was thick full of apart(p) flumes, why wasnt anyone around? What had happened?No building stood tall, burnt out office work scattered the debris, ashes and flock played in the wind. My body filled with just one emotion anxiety. Cars around me were smashed and stifled with fire. I watched in dismay. Crashing noises appeared. Brickwork collapsed- followed with a speechless smash. More rubble f ell with bold broken go to bed Screaming voices emerged. I crawled towards the screams. I was able to hear sirens wailing in the faint distance carried by the wind. I began to see flashing lights though the dark debris. There was only one word to diagnose it hope.Suddenly I glimpsed with the squint of the eye. The site of panicked people was ahead of me. My heart skipped a beat. I shouted, Hello, can you hear me. No one replied. Can you hear me? I screamed. I waited. I listened. A young lady ran over to me. Its okay, youre safe now, announced the lady. Whats happened? Whats happened? I perennial. She didnt answer. She grabbed my arm and wrapped it round her grapple giving me support. We approached the flashing lights. Countless amounts of ambulances and fire engines appeared.Hundreds of people were gathered staring at the ruined town. legion(predicate) people were hysterically screaming and crying. Dead bodies were covered with white cloths. I became speechless. Tears ran down my face. Its over, you survived, piano explained the young lady. I took a big breath. I closed my eyes. I thought. One word repeated through my head lucky.
