Anon: A Fictional Narrative

The air was full of dust and it made my throat irritated. Amanda pointed up frantically with fear in her eyes. I looked up to see a huge cloud of black smoke. The streets filled with the sounds of sirens and horrifying screams. We had no idea what was going on but it felt like WW3 had begun. Other witnesses told us that a plane flew into one of the towers. I lived about 30 blocks away so my first reaction was to get to safety. We started sprinting down the sidewalk. We heard the engine of another plane because this

The sound thundered through my ears. The ground shook beneath my feet and it felt like I was floating on it. Then another flash like lightning and that ground-shaking, deafening noise again” As you can probably tell, this is where the village is being bombed.

“This is it”, Will said softly as the he is in tower was collapsing. The jet fuel in an inferno about 20 feet away, scorching the concrete. There are dismembered limbs, scorched around him. He remembers the moments before the plane hit the 1st tower. He was terrified when he saw the plane collide. There were objects and debris flying everywhere. The people around him were terrified, wondering if the people in the other tower were alright. The tower was shook from the impact. He knew that he had to run, or else he would die. He sprinted as fast as he could to the stairs, when he was younger he had a similar experience, the Oklahoma City bombing.

A secondary school child could explain a test on the subject of dormancy, effect, and influence of the huge crashes on the two 107-stories WTC 1 and WTC 2 that brought about the breakdown of the 50-stories WTC 7. The other four towers were so little it would have been impossible shake brutally enough to fall. The basic truth was that the crashes of the two planes with the upper parts of WTC 1 and WTC 2 were seen by numerous individuals and recorded on features. In that capacity, the effect from impacts at the upper part of the towers must be calculated into the reenactment, for its total power of effect, its influence on shearing the base of the structures, and its warm impact in starting the falling breakdown. Tower 7 was both sufficiently high to catch more prominent vibration than each other tower and sufficiently close to be completely overwhelmed in fiery remains, garbage, and

Logan flicked on his flashlight and pointed it to the ground, “ It looks like there are footprints going towards the tunnel”.

The main theme of this book is how everyone in the city works hard in order to survive every day of the siege. The men on the hills and the ongoing war have thrown everyone’s lives into utter chaos. In the first chapter, the following quotation is repeated three times: “It screamed downward, splitting air and sky without effort. A target expanded in size, brought into focus by time and velocity. There was a moment before impact that was the last instant of things as they were. Then the visible world exploded” (Galloway 1, 3, 6). These two quotations serve as a connection to the beginning of the war and how a single mortar shell transforms the lives of tens of thousands of people.

Suddenly, the music stops and the wind quits blowing and the smile is removed from Derek’s face. His eyes widen in fear as he sees the glass of his windows floating through the air. He sees the world around him spinning and hears the deafening sound of metal collapsing around him.

By the end of the day that we mainly spent waiting inside Java Jolt for the police to tell us our building was out of danger, London had set up a meeting with her detective friend to met up at our house at around 6:30 tonight. But, by that time, we were just getting let back into the apartment, and we just didn’t have the time to clean up the broken plates caused by the vibrations of the explosion. Our energy had disappeared as we watched the death toll rise and rise to over 30- one of which was one of the guys on Austin and Reed's football team. The building was nothing more than a brick base and ash spread out for miles around the scene. The first responders are saying how lucky everybody is because it’s a miracle that so many people got out of the building in time. Suddenly, we heard a loud, hollow knock on the door that disrupted my

He was eager to go to bed, as he had a long line of customers to merely deal with in the morning. As he walked into the bedroom, to his horror, he noticed that his room had been trashed, as if an enraged animal had been set loose in his home. All of his papers were scattered, the frame of his bed broken and his clothes scattered across the room, many of them torn. He then heard what sounded like ceramics breaking in the other room, which was the kitchen. As he slowly crept into his kitchen, his heart beating quickly, he had noticed that all of his mugs, cups, plates and bowls were falling as if by themselves, with many already broken on the floor. “ARGH!” Foreman groaned in pain as he felt something crash against the back of his head. He immediately turned around, and to his horror, he realised that there was a woman, somehow floating, throwing

“All of a sudden, there was the shift of an earthquake. People ask, "Did you hear a boom?" No. The way I can best describe it is that every joint in the building jolted.. We all got knocked off balance. One guy burst out of a stall buttoning up his pants, saying, "What the f*?" The flex caused the marble walls in the bathroom to crack.”

After about 15 minutes the wind picks up even more and the Arch becomes uneven. Tim is a construction worker with Dave. He works in the same section of the Arch. The wind is so strong that Tim loses his balance and falls back. Knocking Dave up and over the edge of the Arch. He falls for about 100 ft before a big blue net catches him below. Dave doesn't know what to say. He sits there and just waits until someone gets the crane because he is still 150 feet off the ground. He is so glad that someone put down the net. Dave is thinking, and he is kinda upset with himself. If he didn't convince everyone to go back to work he wouldn't have almost fell to his death. The company lets him go home and take the rest of the day off. Once he gets home he doesn't want to say anything to his wife and kids because he's afraid that they will be frightened. So he just goes on with the rest of his day. Dave eventually goes back to work the next day and doesn't mention anything that

The power of the kick flings me down the hall. I skip across the floor before rolling to a stop, bumping into the wall. A groan escapes my lips as I lay there, agony hammering through my body. My midsection screams at me and I pray my ribs aren’t broken. I start to sit up, trying to roll onto my stomach. I never get there because Jagger’s already next to me, forcing me down with a heavy knee on my chest. He applies pressure on my lower ribs, depriving me of what little air I have left in my aching lungs.

All of a sudden the people felt a ringing noise in their ears, then they realized what had happened, bricks flew into the wall, bringing the buildings down to ash and rubble.

The author helped me understand by saying the explosions effect on people. Like how the author singled out one person, which helps the reader sympathies the people better. It was told through what happened to Noble, what Noble saw, and how Noble lost a family member.¨The shock wave lifted Noble into the air. He landed, unconscious, near Richmond School. For about 10 minutes, black rain fell-a sludge of benzol residue, molten pieces of the Mont-Blanc, and other debris. When Noble came to, he saw that most of the buildings were gone. His jacket had been blown off. His skin was blacken by the rain. Shards of glass stuck of glass stuck in his hair. I mean can you imagine waking seeing black rain falling, glass in your hair after becoming unconscious for 10 minutes?

Father Kleinsorge woke up around 6 a.m. on the morning the bomb was initially dropped. Feeling weak and tired from a
