The Explosion


I decided to go for a walk to get some fresh air. As I step outside the cold air hits my cheeks and fingers, causing them to sting. I look up and all round me is mist and it seem to be covering the whole city. I glance at my phone: it’s 8’clock, bang on. I start to walk up the street when I hear ‘bang’ it sounds like an explosion going off behind me and bang, another one goes off. It must be fireworks, it is November 5th.I look up in the sky expecting pink and green colours in the sky but instead I see fiery orange everywhere and little black dots in the sky. It is as if the mist lifts a little and I see dead people all over the roads and pavements, cars toppled over, houses falling to the ground.  Suddenly all I can hear are screams: people, are running down the roads. What the hell’s going on?
 I hear a humming noise but can’t see what it is .When all of sudden, another explosion goes off, hitting the ground. Trees are crashing down around me and on to cars where people are trapped inside screaming to get out.  The ground is starting to break in too, people are grabbing hold of fences , posts, anything they can find  so they don’t fall down the hole. I turn to help them when I hear another explosion and its heading straight for me.  I run as fast as my legs can carry me and the humming noise is getting closer.  Its bloody following me for fuck sake leave me alone! I carry on running when the explosion takes  me  unexpectedly and throws  me  to the ground I cry with  pain . I sit up and feel blood trickling down. I use my coat sleeve to wipe away the blood and in the sky is the object hovering ripped to pieces around me. I try to get up but my left foot is not working, I glance down and see my trainer has been ripped to pieces. My foot is full of blood but with trances of black to. I don’t have time to sort it out because the object looks like its set to launch on me again. So I hobble up and try to get the hell out of here until I reach a dead end and there is nowhere to go. The object is upon me. This is it, this is how my life going to end before its really began.  Come do your worse you arse hole. The ground erupts below me, I fall to the ground, screaming, until nothing else comes out. My eyes began to close and my heart starts to slow down rapidly. 
My eyes flicker open slowly, where am I ? Is this heaven ?. I open my eyes wider and the room is lit up with tiny lights and the rest of the room is dark and cold . I can see a desk which is messy with half eaten food. There someone sitting in the corner, I move about five blankets of me and someone says “ you’re a wake finally it’s been about week  I thought you were never going to wake.”
I try to say speak but can’t . I finally move the blankets to try and stand up. When the guy screams at me, I would not do that if I was you.”
As I look down to the floor I remember my foot be badly hurt. There is no longer my left foot which is now been replaced by mechanical foot. I scream at him what the hell have you done to me!
