Just before it entered the water, Ed raised his right hand, forming it into the shape of a gun, and held it steady with his left hand. Bang! imobiliare bucuresti he said as he shot the gun at the tornado. The dust storm ceased, dropping its dirt to the ground. Tomorrow morning, all of the concerns and doubts will be moot, John thought. The new Alliance will get their instructions, and the fate of the world would be in their hands. He had always thought there would be some kind of warning before the last day arrived. He imagined there would be a war for a year or two that spread across the globe, ending in a thermonuclear holocaust which engulfed the entire world.
Or maybe it would be an asteroid that scientists had located in the heavens and failed to move off course. Humanity would learn that they had until a certain date to get their lives in order, because they would be hit and the earth as they knew it would be no more. Not this day, though. No warning, no getting ready, no time to say good-bye. Life would continue. All the good people would continue to be good, and all the bad people, unfortunately, would continue to be bad. Saturday—tomorrow night—the world as they knew it would end, and there wouldn’t be enough time to even cry.
Wow, another beautiful day, Jesse thought as she packed her backpack. The almost-full moon from the night before lingered low in the cloudless sky. The pines smelled sweet, and the slow breeze created a timberland symphony as it whipped through the treetops. She saw an eagle circling high above with hope in its wings. A great mountain range rose up beyond the lake, to the north. The snow-capped peaks stood out sharply in contrast to the deep blue sky behind them. It was just another Saturday morning in the wilderness outside of Seattle. I love this place. They headed toward the NBC, walking in single file. Each had his or her pack, ready for the trek.
They were pumped; even Steve had an air of anticipation about him. Jesse pushed Matt on the shoulder. Last trek you started to ask questions. You know the rules: no questions! Don’t you dare get us in trouble this time. Jeremy looked back over his shoulder. Yeah, keep it buttoned. In a low voice he added, You watch. There is something different. I can feel it. Steve and Matt both rolled their eyes. Jeremy sneezed. You’ve never had allergies. You’ve got a cold! Jesse insisted. Nope! Just allergies. They all laughed. We’ve done this a hundred times, Steve said.
