the time running down

Breaking news appears on the tv saying there is a new epidemic and so everyone starts racing to the stores to get supplies like food,toilet paper, paper towels and other things when all of a sudden all the lights go out in the store, everyone starts screaming and racing to the counters. Then everyone goes quiet i think to myself what the hell is going on. I get home and i look outside and there is a huge clock in the sky, i say to myself what is this, is this a joke. I take a closer look and it has an hour left i say to myself is this the end? I think to myself its over this is the day the world ends. I rush to my basement and start collecting everything to get me through whatever this is if i even can survive. I come out to look at the clock and see 1 minute left now i am freaking out nobody else is like me they are all like robots and im thinking they are taking control of us this is the governments plan to make us go insane. The clock reaches 10-9-8-7-6-5 i rush to my basement and sit down, i can hear what seems to be 3-2-1 the clock reaches zero and everything goes quiet no sound of anything, i start thinking what is going on this is insane. I come outside to see all the people just going on with there daily lives and i am going insane by now screaming and yelling ‘‘what the hell is going on’’. Someone looks at me and says ‘‘happy new’’...
