As Lizzie walked down the stairs, she headed directly to the kitchen. As she entered, her mom said, "Hurry up or you'll be late! You have 6 minutes until the bus comes!" With that, Lizzie grabbed a peach and ran out the door. As she was running to the bus stop, she heard the engine of the bus roaring behind her. She sped up, and made in to the corner seconds before the bus did.
"Hey Lizzie!" said Miranda as Lizzie slid into the seat next to her, out of breath. :I didn't know you could run that fast."
"I didn't know I could either!" said Lizzie, jokingly.
About five minutes from their school, Lizzie thought she saw smoke in the distance. As the got closer to their school, Lizzie, Miranda, and all of the other kids on the bus were awed by huge flames shooting up, but they still could not identify what it was. Lizzie became worried. "What if some place I know is on fire? What if it's a friend's house? What if it's." and before Lizzie could finish the thought, the bus stopp about 500 yards from the school. They saw that the huge mounds of heat and fire were emerging from their school.
As Lizzie felt the heat from the fire even through the bus walls, she saw teachers rushing out of the flaming building. Some students were crying, some just stared in awe. She turned to Miranda and searched for something to saw. She saw a tear drop from Miranda's eye and Lizzie leaned in and hugged her. She whispered, "Everything will be okay." Inside, though, she wondered if it truly would be.
