Chapter/Part: 12

"What is that sound?" Eric asked as he was walking back down there steps after getting some food for everyone.

"What sound? Annie asked. While Julie looked worried.

"Oh it was coming out side it sounded strange." Eric replied calmly.

Meanwhile Mary Was at the her place. She decided she better go down where almost everyone else is. She heard a funny sound and didn't want to be alone anymore. She looked out of the window and saw that the wind was picking up at a very fast rate. After this she ran towards the steps and down. She almost reached the bottom when she tripped. Making her roll the rest of the way down.

Matt after his shower went back to his room to study some. He decided he wasn't hungry and didn't go eat. He heard a sound that he only heard one other time. So he ran to the basement where everyone else was as fast as he could. Taking his books and paper. He made it down right as his dad asked what is that sound. He didn't want to tell the little kids that it was a tornado. So he wisely kept his mouth shut.

Lucy and Kevin after Lucy asked what's that noise went to the basement with everyone else. They weren't taking any chances. They got down there also as Eric asked what the sound was. Lucy went with the mothers to watch the kids. While the men went to look from the top of the steps out a window. Matt was right. There was a Tornado. They went back down the steps took so blankets that were on a shelve and gathered everyone in a back room. It was safest there. They made it there just as the power went out. The covered with the blankets and stayed huddled around each other.

Simon and Hank were in Simon's room. Simon asked what the noise was. Hank wasn't sure if it could be a tornado and didn't want to guess. Hank told Simon to stay there and to relax while he was going to go out and ask some questions. Hank didn't come back. He ended up helping with his patient to get to safety. Simon didn't know where Hank was or for that matter what the sound was that kept roaring. The went out but being in a hospital has its reward for it came right back on by the generator. He was getting nervous. Hank told him to stay there so he did.

Mary got up after her fall. She knew she would be bruised later. She went to where there was a crowed around a big room. She asked what was going on just as the power went out. Needless to say her answer was there was a tornado and she better huddle in and cover with a blanket. Which she did.

Back at the house. The kids screamed and screamed. Even Ruthie. Lucy held onto Kevin and shock. Kevin held her whispering reassuringly. Matt was behind Julie who was clam and held her child. Annie held Sam and tried to smooth him. While Eric tried with David.

Simon figured out there was a tornado after awhile. But never being in one had no idea what to do. So he got up and sat under the bed. The tornado was getting stronger and he could her it. He wanted to see what was happening. Being curious he crawled over to the window and opened the curtain. Not 5 minutes later did he realize that was a mistake. He thought you learn from you mistakes. Which in this case he defiantly learned from his mistake. The window started to shake. It shattered and glass cut and landed all around him. He tried to move backwards and ended up falling twice before he made it to his door. He opened it crawled out and shut it as quickly as he could. With in 10 minutes the tornado was gone. There was just rain.

At the house everyone unbundled from each other. Matt, Kevin and Eric were the first ones free. Lucy Got out of the group of the children and women and went to hold tight to Kevin. The Women and kids got up slowly and were still holding on to each other. The Men went to go check out what damage was done. They made all the women stay much to their displeasure. The house was creaked all over. They stairs upstairs were messed up. They would have to rent somewhere so they could fix the house. It would take awhile. They went and looked at the garage it was totaled. They then went to tell the women who would be upset. After that they tried the phone to call the hospital but the phone was down and Kevin didn't have his cell on him nor did Matt.

Mary was fine. Everyone else was to. She wasn't in the middle of the storm but nonetheless is shock her up. She was worried about Simon and her family.

Simon was bloody and hurt from they fall. He seemed to be they only crazy person to stay in his room. But there were a lot of people being hysterical. He was near a lady who was crying. He crawled over and started to talk to her gently calming here. A nurse was near by in a corner and also calmed while he talked. Nether noticed the blood. After awhile they were calm and the lady went back to her room. The nurse was about to get up when she heard a voice.

"Simon Camden what happened to you?" Hank said with concern.

"Um nothing much."

"Nothing much you say? Well look at you Simon your all bloody with deep cuts and you have glass in some places. Now tell me what happened as I get you back to your room."

"Um my room wouldn't be a good idea." Simon said.

"Why not? Here come over here while I look you over." He said.

Simon told him the whole story. He even admitted that he was in pain. They put him in a new room. Then they cleaned him up gave him painkillers and he fell asleep.
