The Storm: Creative Piece

It started to drizzle as I got home. I was a little wet but felt like I was soaked. "Mom!" I yelled. No answer. It was weird because my mom usually would of answered me by then. It was a Thursday night. No school Friday because it was Memorial Day week-end. I looked outside my front door window. It was all gray outside. When  I looked up to the clouds it was black. I turned around and walked into the kitchen grabbed a apple and went inside my room. I sat down on my bed and turned my TV on. "Criminal Minds" was on. So I started to watch that when I fell asleep.

I woke to a crash. It sounded like it came from outside. But it was to foggy where I couldn't see anything. I yelled "Mom!" No answer still. "Dad!!" Still no answer. I was mad that no one was still home and I looked at the clock. 8:00 P.M. I tried calling both my parents and still no answer. I walked outside my bedroom and looked out the window again. I heard another crash but this time I saw a very bright flash. I screamed then I realized it was lighting. I went in the kitchen and looked around for something to eat. I heated up some pizza and turned on the News in the living room. To see the weather.

All the weather said was that there was a tornado watch. "Great." I responded to my self. Outside you could here it raining really hard and it was all flooded on the streets. I was really scared considering, I had no idea where my mom and dad were. They didn't leave a note. So where could the be? I thought to my self. I started to cry and a alert is on the TV. I run in the room. "WARNING: Everyone in Pewaukee get to a safe location. A tornado had been created in the storm. Get to any lower level floor or NO window room." Tornado has been detected!" I screamed. and ran into the bathroom with my dog and cat. I thought to my self, I was going to die.

All I could remember was running in the bathroom. But after the third time screaming I woke up to my alarm clock going off. I jumped out of bed and looked out side it was sunny. I looked at the calender, it was Thursday again. Like nothing ever happened. I laughed to my self. " Mom!!" I yelled. She came in my room yes sweetie?" I hugged her and she was in shock. "Your not going anywhere today right?!" She looked at me puzzled. "No, Helen. I'm not why?" I hugged her again and started to cry. "No reason, Just wanted to say I love you so much."
