Quick Write: Fire 10 Oct. 2013

Everything started to light up, smoke seeping through, people panicking as they looked around for some way to get away from the fire as they coughed. Screams of pain could be heard through the cracking of the fire.

No one knew what caused it and no one was able to actually think of a reason for their lives were slipping away. Screams fading away along with their souls.

A silhouette of a man with, what seemed like, a long piece of cloth draped around his head, was seen jumping out of the chaos happening behind him. He looked like he was the only one able to escape the burning claws of this fire.

"Run" he screamed to himself and anyone else who was still alive, as he was running away, running far away, never stopping, from the terrible tragedy.
