#where everything started

Dust.

Once I opened my eyes dust was all I could see.

I couldn't hear anything, I couldn't smell anything.

Strange. When I closed my eyes I was...trembling.

I looked around me and saw an immense quantity of flames.

Then all of my sleeping senses came to life. The suffocating smoke that pervaded my lungs; my eyes that watered profusely; my leg stuck in something too heavy for me to lift, and my skin burning. The sound of the flames creeping towards me resonated inside my ears and skull, making me feel dizzy.

And then the fear hit me. The fear of being stuck. The fear of never getting out alive from here. The fear of not getting back to my parents.

A fire?! What is happening in here?!

Then I remembered what happened.

There was an earthquake, one of very big dimensions; it wiped away everything.

I remember some professor calling the ambulance, people going out, I was going too but my leg was stuck. I remained there as everyone came out.

I could hear the screams of...was it Nicole? My best friend Nicole? And the others too..ambulances..then I remember closing my eyes.

I looked better around me and I wasn't at school anymore, or to better say it didn't look like a school, more like an abandoned building. I couldn't hear the sirens of the ambulance or the screaming of the people outside.

I couldn't move, so I was still stuck for sure. I tried to look out of the broken windows, starting to breathe badly for the smoke, and I saw the stars.

Stars?!

I tried to remember what time did the earthquake happened, and what I remembered didn't match the time I was on.

Wasn't 12 am when everything started..?

A solid 5 minutes later I could hear some voices, or only one voice, I couldn't quite understand, coming towards me. I tried to scream to make my presence noticeable, and the result was a cough attack.

Eventually the person (or the people) heard me and moments later I was in the arms of a man. I think he was speaking to me, but I was so confused I couldn't hear him. Everything I saw was a helmet covering the face of the man, and a hint of green in background.

He took me outside and finally I could breathe some fresh air. I looked up, and saw the stars, along with a yellow-ish light in the background, the fire raging and moving behind me, burning my back.

The man then took me to a ship, but I couldn't see anything, I was so sleepy, I eventually closed my eyes, entering a sweet-scented place. I could feel something cold pervading my skin, but I didn't have the force to open my eyes anymore. I just want to sleep...

And with that, I entered a sweet lullaby.
