Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts, Disney, Final Fantasy or anything related to Square Enix or pretty much anything at all except for the few characters that I have made up ie. Dan and Sam. This will be the only disclaimer for the whole story and I'm not even sure why I'm making a disclaimer since it is kind of obvious I don't own anything.
Sam's P.O.V.
It is blistering hot out. Five freshmen have already fainted and twenty students in all have puked. That's pretty sad when its only the second day of band camp.
The instrument groups are being separated to play their own parts of music. The low brass section is "walking with purpose" towards their designated area while the other sections are running, jogging or any assortment of the two.
The clarinets are in their own smaller friend groups talking about gossip as their adviser is talking to the band director.
"So Sam, what are you doing after this?" Sabrina asked. "You can come with me and K.C. and go shopping."
"No, I'm going on a date with George." I say.
"Come on, you go on a date with him every day."
"Just because your boyfriend wants to hang out with you only twice a week doesn't mean mine does." I say on impulse. Why does she have to argue about this everyday?
Sabrina opens her mouth to argue about that, but Mr. T, the main band director blows his whistle to call every one back. Sabrina gives me an angry look and then storms off.
"Okay, everyone, we've finally got the drill charts." Mr. T waves them in his hand and then distributes them to me and the other senior instrumentalists to hand out. "They think there is no way, but we'll show them we can play Led Zeppelin for marching, just like how we played The Who last year." No one really knows who 'they' are, but it still brings a cheer. "Okay okay, enough cheering. Every one to your first spots." We all quickly find our spots while helping the freshmen in the progress.
Mr. T is about to speak when a huge gust of wind comes over us. It feels so good over my sweaty skin. Then we all noticed the big black clouds coming over us. I can hear the low brass rejoicing that their rain dance might finally have worked. No one noticed that the clouds ware looking pretty ominous to me, though, or maybe I'm just paranoid.
Suddenly we all can hear a terrible screeching as a blast of wind breaks off the speakers form the top of the band pavilion that is in front of the practice fields we are using.
Mr. T has to jump out of the way before the speakers crash to the ground right where he was standing. I've never seen him move so fast!
Several people go over to make sure he is okay.
We could all feel the warmth of the sun then. The cloud just leaves as quickly as it had appeared. "Well that was melodramatic." I say to myself.
"Well, now that that's over with. "Says Mr. T. He's still a little startled by almost getting hit by the speakers. "Everybody get back to your spots." Everyone groans as they head back to their spots.
A huge rumble could be heard from far off. Some of the low brass start to ask every body if some one was hungry. "Was that the thunder from those clouds?" I ask K.C. She gives me a shrug.
Then… the earth shook. And if the wind scared some of us, then you have no idea how scared we are if we encounter our first earth quake.
This isn't just some earth quake, either. It must be at least a category 5000! A chasm opens up in the parking lot, taking all of our cars with it and even more cracks appear through most of the ground.
Everyone is running around this time. Event he adults are. All that I can think of is to get out of here and that's what I do. I run off to the bike path that's across the soccer field from us. I need to make sure Mom and Dad are okay at home.
Dan's P.O.V.
"What the hell is going on?" No one bothers answering me as they all run in different directions. The low brass section I was with disperses to every direction around me.
"Dan, stay here. Nothing can fall on us in an open plain." My friend, Ben, says. I can only agree with him. Well, no one here really does know what to do during an earthquake. We've never had one before.
But wait, where is my sister? "Sam! Sam! Where are you?" I look around but can't see her.
"Is that her over there?" I look to see where Ben's pointing. A blonde girl is racing across the soccer field. I quickly run after her. "Dan, wait! What did I just say?"
I easily catch up to her." Hey, wait!" She turns around and I find out I was running after the wrong person. "Amber?"
"Dan, what are you doing?" Amber says. She looks shocked, thinking I came after her, which I technically did.
"I thought you were Sam. Have you seen her?"
"Oh," She says disappointingly. "I saw her run across that bridge." I quickly run off to the bike trail bridge leaving Amber behind. "Could have at least thanked me."
Once over the bridge, I see people running through the Frisbee golf course. I also see Sam running away from atop the hill following the bike path.
By the time I get to the top of the hill she was already going across another bridge at the bottom. "Damn it, slow down." I pant. "I may be faster, but you have way more endurance. SAM!" She finally stops after hearing me giving me enough time to catch up.
"Sam, what are you-" A loud cracking noise interrupts me.
"Look out!" She pushes me out of the way as a tree falls down on the path.
"S-sam!" I'm at a total loss of words.
"Dan, we need to get home." She grabs my hand and takes off with me having to keep up.
We run by the grade school, the softball diamonds, follow Main Street as a whole bunch of cars speed by, and go down to the end of our street.
Our house is the last one on our street. The street just stops right in front of a corn field. Once we reach the door, Sam quickly unlocks it with her key. But wait, why was the door locked? The door opens and we see that the house is in ruins.
The front of the house is the only wall standing. All the others were knocked down when the deep gaping crack appeared through the house. "You don't think-" Sam couldn't finish.
"No." A thought came in my head. "The door was locked, so they must have left before this happened. Come on, let's get out of here." I pull her out of the destroyed home.
We start to head up the street when, with another shake, it starts to collapse towards us!
"Run!" I yell, this time dragging her into the corn field. The rough corn husks are making my legs, arms, and head extremely itchy, but I keep running. I can hear the ground behind us collapsing.
"Whoa." I slide my feet to a stop, although I'm almost pushed by Sam anyways. In front of us is another chasm.
"What now?" Sam asks.
"We'll have to jump."
"Are you crazy! We'll never make it!"
"Either way, we'll fall." And with that, I tense up ready to jump, and thankfully Sam follows suite.
"Jump!" I yell, and we jump across. It looks like we're going to make it. One of my legs lands on top, but Sam completely misses and pulls me down. I quickly grab the cliff with a hand as I keep Sam from falling with my other. Both of our weight is exhausting my arm, though.
"Dan, you can't hold on forever." Sam is on the verge of tears.
"No, just shut up."
"But you could climb up without-"
"No! Don't be stupid!" I'm not going to let her fall, especially since it is mostly my fault.
"Well… if you won't let go." She starts wriggling her hand trying to break free.
"Sam, please. Don't do this." My arm feels like it's going to snap off if she doesn't though.
"Make sure Mom and Dad are okay." She says, and then falls.
"Sam!" Right when she lets go, the part of the cliff my hand is on crumbles under my grip, and I fall after her.
