???? 2062 “A soldier screaming Chuán rù,Po,Po (Incoming!!!, Run,Run) is rushing furiously while holding his M4 Carbine Military grade gun tightly in his blood and dust covered hands. BOOM!! Everything in a 10-mile radius abruptly vanished after a tremendous flash of light and a massive fireball, and all I could see was debris and a massive mushroom-shaped cloud of smoke. ???????? ????: ******Over 2 million people have been reported dead in the past two weeks following the detonation of a nuclear bomb in Eastern Asia, the world's 10th such attack to date. ****** A mom staring down at her 10-year-old son who is gasping for air and gushing blood from his chest begs him, "Stay with me, come on, don't die on me." "Mum, Mum," he chokes, "I can't breathe, I can't." He chokes on his last words as his hands gently loosen their hold on hers. She holds his hands, her swollen eyes dripping profuse tears that drops unceasingly on the blood stained ground. Unfortunately, the earth refused her tears as little puddles of her tears where formed on the ground. Kelvin, Kelvin,” she screams, sadly no one seems to care, people were dying, Old men, and women, young adults, Teens, children, he was just another on the casualty list, and definitely won’t be the last……… “This is Madness, total madness, what have we done to deserve this? I ask myself as i stare at the sky, looking at the sun, which seems to lose it’s beauty as dark clouds seems to block it’s already depressing look. “The government promised us the new world order will be For the world good, They told us it will bring about world harmony, but what’s this? Peace?? A man yelled in my general vicinity. I was seated next to a group of people who were talking, and I could bet a billion dollars and still win on what they were discussing. The number of people dying was rising dramatically, yet the central body in charge of international politics remained completely mute. The alleged global harmony and tranquility was a complete lie. Please allow me a little bread, sir, I'm sorry. If you question a little girl, no older than 12 years old, with blonde hair, gorgeous blue eyes, freckles on her cheeks, and a creamy striped dress. Her gown was ruined, and it was clear from the look on her face that she was starving. When I suddenly realized I held some silver and gold, I stopped myself from saying, "Silver and gold, I have none." “here you go, have it all” I could only watch in terror as she leapt on my hand like a wolf, gobbling the bread heedlessly. What happened to your parents? I queried. She turned to face me, and as I noticed I had stroked the wrong cord, tears began to slowly form in her eyes. "They are dead," she said, trying to hold back any tears, but sadly one fell and ran down her cheeks, and when she finally lost control and started crying, I grabbed her. All I could say was, "I'm very sorry. I couldn't help but be in awe as I passed the macabre scene of burning buildings and bodies, with mutilated bodies and body parts scattered everywhere. So she gripped my hands. What’s your name” I asked. “Kim” she answered with a shaky voice. “Kim, please, can you avoid looking at the bodies, ok” I asked…. “Ok, I’ll try,” she replied. ************ “ Why did your parents pass away? I questioned as I gave her a drink can. She laughs and reveals a small portion of her pearly white teeth and dimples, saying, "I can't really explain, I was home with NaNa." She had a lovely face. "Nana is my nanny. She was in the kitchen preparing lunch while I was outside playing with some flowers. When she called me inside for lunch, she turned blue and looked directly at me. Tears streamed down her face as she ran towards me and gave me a tight hug. I couldn't understand why she did that, but she cried while holding me in her embrace. She stared intently at me, expecting some sort of explanation—which, regrettably, I was unable to provide—for why they were killed in an auto accident and why the Pilot and Co-Pilot had inexplicably vanished. …… She started crying, and all I could do was try to calm her. We'll make it through this, and I won't let anything bad happen to you, so trust me, Kim. That's okay. Even though I was apprehensive, I was sure I could. Are You Sure? I realized at this point that I had to be strong for this little child when she asked, looking at me with a ray of hope. I answered, "I promise. I said, "Come on, let's go." As soon as we began to move, a bomber jet flying at supersonic speed whizzed over. I saw a jet release a bomb, which was Trouble.... Kim! Suddenly, there was a sonic boom, and then several jets started flying past us. We hurriedly ran away from the situation while she held my hand. Suddenly, 20 feet away, there was a powerful explosion, and all I could see was a bright fireball. The shockwave propelled us and several others into the air, where I blacked out. ……………… ************** My head felt so bad and my ears were ringing, but I swear I could see the solar system. I had no sensation and was unable to move any of my bodily parts, Kim! Kim….. I mumbled. Oh no, my head hurt so bad, Kim!, Kim! I struggled to get to my feet. I screamed,…. I moved around helplessly, falling on my knees I saw a lifeless body on the ground with a large broken glass stuck in the Throat down to the Jugular artery, the face was heavily scarred with burns, At first I thought it was Kim, I gave a sigh of relief because it couldn’t be her than I stood up to keep searching, but, something wasn’t right, i turned back to stare at the body, it had the Same footwear Kim had, I stare closely at the body……………..
