"Amidst The Blackness...
Lies...what?"
Ana opened her eyes slowly, the darkness staring back at her. She coughed and hacked up dust and debris as she slowly rolled over onto her side and studied the dirt-covered, destroyed streets she was currently laying on. "Mngg owww," Ana winced as she sat up and discovered that her body was covered in bruises and scrapes. She rested the palm of her hand against her forehead as she thought to herself, 'what the hell just happened? let's see...I was walking down some of the streets in Jersery City looking for this return adress,' Ana paused mid-thought to raise her other hand and check to see if the letter her father sent to her mother was still alright. Far from. The paper was chared, ripped, tattered, crumpled, destroyed to point where it could not be distinguished as 'paper' or even 'trash' Ana sighed and pointed out to herself 'oh well it's not as if it will do me any good now.' She looked around herself, seeing the destroyed, ruined buildings. All hope completely vanished from her heart, her very soul, as she realised that a once bubbley, busy city had turned into a desolate wasteland; Not only that, she could see no other life form. No other human standing up and saying 'ow' or coming up to her with worry 'are you all right?' and not even a 'Gotcha! Did you think that was real?' and then happy laughter and faces. Ana curled up into a ball, despite her bruised torso, ribs and arms. She buried her face deep between her knees and wept. The sky began to sob with her. She wept for hours and hours. She wept for humanity, she wept for sanity, she wept for love, life, she wept for her soul, her timid scared soul. One thought passed through her mind...
