It was dark, the pounding in his ears wasn't just the sounds of mayhem in the entire city as everything went ro hell around him.

His rapidly pacing heart was rapidly as if threatening to leap out of his chest.

The lights going out although strange were nothing too concerning what with all the portable technology and smartphones all around everyone kept going about their evening without a care in the the world.

Nobody expected terrorist attacks not in the city while the government had several agencies working around the clock to prevent such things that is. The main focus of that sort of radicalism was used in barbaric and backward countries such as the middle east and africa, nothing would dare touch a pristine city of glass

However, something was very wrong that evening in the city as entire city blocks winked out one after another as if some strange domino effect.

The second warning sign should have been the cell towers and radio stations in the city going dark some abruptly stopping mid broadcast.

But what really should have gotten the most reactions was the destruction of the police station as whatever tore it open literally chunked three city blocks showering its surroundings in burning debris and shrapnel.

No the world had ended for the young man earlier that same day.

His father had gathered all their belongings into a pickup heading out of the city. His old man hadn't bothered to say anything as he hopped into the drivers seat his face a mask of focus. The families hunting shotgun on his lap they soared down the streets taking back roads and avoiding the mainstreets as the world fell apart around them.

The ride in the truck had ended quickly after reaching they reached one of the last city limit signs. Courtesy of a flaming semi that came barrelling after them from out of nowhere and whatever evasive maneuvers his father had attempted were all in vain as the sound of twisting metal and fracturing glass and acrylic announced that the back of the pickup was violently separated from the ground.

The semi sent them careening off to the side of the highway before impacting the concrete barrier as the pickup was flipped over and dragged along until finally coming to a violent stop.

By some miracle the cabin wasn't completely crushed. By the time he had escaped the inky darkness of unconsciousness he looked for his father. Finding that his sire was missing he began to struggle to escape the wrecked vehicle. And after successfully escaping the death trap his seatbelt had become. He gingerly slid on his bavk over a few pieces of auto glass.

once he had succesfully escaped the ruined vehicle he proceeded to help his father to help his father
