Elizabeth was only 7 when the apocalypse hit. Out of her whole family, only her younger sister and she survived.
First the earthquakes came. They shook the whole world as buildings collapsed and chaos began. Fires were started, and the world was in a state of terror. Elizabeth was holding her younger sister's hand as her parents quickly shut the door and covered up the windows. They turned off the TV, which was filled with news reports. One by one, they were going dead as the satellites collapsed. Victoria, Elizabeth's little sister, was terrified. Their older brother, James, was packing up. They had to run.
Next, the tsunamis came. They crashed over the land, burying Japan and Hawaii, as well as other islands. Elizabeth's family lived on the east coast of the U.S.A., and they drove inward. They nearly made it to one of the numerous safe havens that were popping up. But, as they were driving, it started to flood. James got out helping to push the car with his parents. The water level was getting higher. James got inside the car, as well as the mother, but the father didn't make it. As he was swept away, they rode the waves inside of their car.
The volcanoes erupted, and some of the most feared ones as well. The family eventually made it to a safe haven. Getting out and looking up, they saw a mountain of black ash rise up. Yellowstone had erupted. As the tephra came pounding down, they run as quickly as they can. One sad, small twist of fate took their mother as she was impaled by a piece of metal.
The kids made it into the safe haven. They stayed there for a night and a day, when the atmosphere crashed. James had run outside, helping people inside, when he disappeared. He was never to be found again.
Elizabeth remembered hugging Victoria, and trying to remain brave. She also remembered that moment when the ash parted slightly to let a sunbeam fall on the sisters. Elizabeth then decided to never give up hope for a new life.
A/N: Yeah, it's a little depressing. Anyway, what do you guys think?
