-----------
In a apartment complex in New York, a young woman in her early twenties sat in front of her television waiting anxiously for any indication of what was happening. she wasn't alone in this as many people were scared witless at the moment.
A mysterious voice had been heard across the globe and with it many things had begun to change. Planes that were in flight all around the world had fallen from the sky after the blinding green flash happened. Cities were at the brink of rioting in some parts of America and in other countries. some people had started falling ill mostly the elderly but there was worry of the illness spreading. stock markets were crashing as the index fell to an all-time low.
Human civilization after one day had started to collapse. many people looked to their leaders for guidance, but all had been silent until a notice had sent via text to every mobile. a press conference had been set and now the people waited for news.
on the television screen a still image of a podium stood awaiting the speaker. an old gentleman slowly walked onto the stage and squinted at the cameras.
This man was none other than the leader of the free world. President Joe Biden... his face was pale, and he seemed slightly dazed as he began his address to the nation.
"My fellow Americans. . . Just 8 hours ago our planet suffered a tremendous tragedy many of our dear friends, families and loved ones passed away in such a short time span and I knew many of us are still reeling from their loss."
Just then the women's mobile phone started to buzz pull her attention away from the speech, the caller ID was her older brother, John Harris. quickly answering the call. the woman spoke. "Hey John! thank god you're alright, I haven't been able to get through to you all afternoon. Why didn't you pick up my calls? Are you able to watch the broadcast right now?"
There was a slight pause on the other side before her brother's voice came through, it was hollow and raw like he had spent a lot of time yelling. "Emily, its dad... he passed away. we found him in the wreckage of his plane just over the property line in Franks fields."
~Background tv. "Our scientist have discovered 3 new earth like planets occupying the same orbit as our world, it is yet unknown if any intelligent life exists on them, this is currently a cause of great concern for humanity, but also an opportunity."~
"*Grasp* Oh no Daddy... gods no!" The women cried, tears running down her cheeks.
Taking a breath and steadying himself John continued. " Sis, i want you to stay in the city for now, i don't know how bad things are going to get but i believe you will be safer there. Jennifer and I will be heading your way with the kids first thing in the morning."
~More background tv. "We are currently issuing the mandatory evacuation of small towns and settlements under C grade cites a list has already been posted on the government's official website. While we hope this may only be temporary, but our country is plagued by many uncertainties so too minimize the potential loss of human life we have come to this decision. this decision has not been made lightly, we will work tirelessly to ensure the safety of our citizens and figure out the possible ramifications of this event."~
controlling herself as best as she could, Emily replied to her brother. "Of course, John, there is enough room here for your family just please be safe... i can't lose you too." she then asked. "What about dad?"
John answered right away. " I buried him next to mom under the willow tree. his soul should be happy being there with her... I'll be in New York tomorrow afternoon Sis, and we'll talk more then but I got to go for now, see you Sis, I love you. "
Emily choked back a sob and with drown smile she replied. " Okay brother I'll see you when you arrive. I love you too bye~"
