“ I know how this sounds, but… I think a plane just crashed.” 
Alex looked up from rummaging through his back at the bizarre statement. It was just one weird situation after the other now. How was this not a dream? He followed Selene slowly toward the window and stared outside. Black smoke was billowing up in the sky not too far off. 
" We need to go. Like now." She said.

"I'm way ahead of you sister."[/color]Alex mumbled, throwing his back over his shoulder. He hastily made his way out the door, not checking back to see who was following him. First, he had to go home and see if his family was okay then he'd check out what the random smoke was about.

[color=lightcoral]"Good thing my dad taught me."[/color] Emma told Ming Hua and made her way over to the controls. She sat down and turned on the motor. She couldn't get the nagging worry that her dad had fell off and drowned off her mind. No one just disappeared. She paled as she clutched the steering wheel, imagining her mom and brother's faces when they heard it was her fault her father was dead. She had abandoned him and left him to die. To top it off, if she had just went to school none of this would had happened. 

She swallowed. If he had indeed fallen in, he was dead by now. She bit back tears and drove the boat towards the shore. Once at the dock, she stopped it and hopped off, her wet sneakers noisily pressing against the wood. She tied it up rather hastily and turned to the boy, [color=lightcoral]"That guy that was hollering at us is gone."[/color][/center]
