It was the strangest thing I had ever seen, with tubes and wires all connected to one strange rectangular machine.From the beeping sound protruding from a speaker, I would compare it to the machines in a hospital room, but this could potentially be much worse than I had expected.. never I had even thought a invention like this was even possible.But what had forced the creator to think up this machine.Forget that .. I know why, the orange suit I saw him wearing the other day, was a prison uniform,six years ago he was divorced and started selling illegal items from the back of a blackened truck with huge tyres so he could gain enough money to devise a way to get rid of his mental wife, until two years ago when he got locked up... but at what stage did he find time to build this contraption? And where did he gather the mountain of resources needed to just make the switch activate it...Suddenly a horrible BANG! comes from what used to be the door, now it was just a wall of concrete, was I found, was I not supposed to be here, just a mere 6 seconds after a horrible stench of mouldy cheese and grime from the sewers forced its way up my nose, and a feeling of the ground collapsing beneath my feet makes me left to only hope this is just a dream but just managing to open my eyes I find my legs moving and I watch as the ground whip by and then, my legs collapse and I grip to a nearby pole, or at least I thought it was a pole but it was just a hallucination brought on by the fatigue my legs have just caused my face to meet the tiled floor, as the windows tilt to a 90 degree angle my face feels the impact and a terrible sense of pain shoots through my nose and forehead, was my nose broken, well if it is or not its bleeding ... BADLY!

as my mind brings me back to reality, I find myself in a white room, hearing the beeping of the machines beside my hospital bed forces me back to a daydream and I panic as I slowly realised it wasn’t the machine of the mad man.. I slowly raise fingers and gently touch my nose and as expected it is bandaged, the room goes fuzzy as I glance up to the wall revealing a bunch of translucent sheets in front of a bright light and, yes that's my nose, broken and out of shape, as I try to sit up I find a tremendous force pulling me back down and before I black out once again,I see a young nurse with bouncy auburn hair leaning over me and I hear her whisper in a very gentle tone three words “You are okay.”. When I come to a sound outside startles me and a blur of thoughts rush through my sore head, It’s just rain, as I calm myself a bolt of lighting and a strike of thunder hit the world I am trapped in, and I see the nurse return to my room,she’s saying something although I can’t quite make out what she's saying but she is rushing me out of the room then it comes to me, she was yelling “WE HAVE TO EVACUATE!” as the world around me rushes by I am plonked down on a seat next to a old man with a bald head, but he’s not bleeding and he’s not breathing, as I panic, another doctor by who introduces himself as Riley,tells me “it’s okay”, I scream back at him, “IT’S NOT OKAY!” the lights flicker in such a way I could swear it was a pattern but I don’t have time to think.

  1. Wow that's a very descriptive piece of writing. I have a clear image of it in my mind.
