Chapter 1 Edinburgh, 2042
Tyler watched the world around him shift. As glasses crashed onto the already glass and china covered kitchen floor, he ran after his parents into the crowded Eddie's block 'o' flats hallway. People everywhere where desperatley trying to escape the crumbling building. The 12 year old boy held his mothers hand as if his life depended on it,like she could somehow save themselves from their consealed doom. tears where streaming down everybodys cheeks.
Parents looking for their kid's , Kid's wailing for their parents. People trying to run back to get their precious stuff. All the while Tyler just stood there huddled into his mother and father.
The earthquake's shakes just seemed to get stronger and the building itself seemed to be swaying from side to side. 'strange' Tyler thought to himself just a few minutes ago, he had been waiting for his friends to go out. In fact he had just had an arguement with his parents and now they where hugging each other like nothing ever happened. What he really didnt get was the fact that he had seen the warning's on tv, but i guess he just tought it was fake, just another stupid prediction that the met office spat out so that people would keep watching the weather. Still usually he would of packed a survival kit just in case full of stuff that seemed nesseary if it really happened. He had done it in the past but nothing ever occured, yet the one time something did happen... is the time he didn't prepare for it. Despite his fear he still thought 'how ironic'
CRASH
A plant pot fell from its small table. 'No doubt about it the earthquake is getting stronger we are all going to die! ' Tyler felt tears roll down his cheeks. He wiped his damp eyes with his , too big for him, jumper which he got from the latest Art expo in Canada.
Then something strange caught his eye
or rather
Someone...
