It was a normal day.
The sun was shining. It wasn't raining. Nothing was WRONG.
Beth and Jerry had the house to them selves for once.
The little ones had just started pre-school. Summer and Morty where at high school.
The house suddenly erupted, wood and plaster flying everywhere after a huge noise.
A bomb?
Beth didn't know, all she knew was suddenly she was in pain, on the ground and the house was fire and flying wood around her.
She screamed for Jerry and her father but couldn't hear her voice. Had she even said anything or was the ringing in her ears stopping her from getting the words out?
A second explosion made the pain worse. She looked down. A jagged door trim has stabbed her through the middle.
Above her the roof was gone. She could see where the madness was coming from.
A space ship above them was readying to for again.
She staggered to her feet, only making it to the living where Jerry lay on the floor, not moving.
Beth looked at him and sunk to the ground bedside him. At least they would die together she thought as the world went black.
