TWISTER
In the distance, she could see the cloud twisting down to the earth. Panicked, she got in her car and took off down the old dirt road. Having only seen a twister once in her twenty-three years, it had left it's mark after taking her mother and father; she knew to get somewhere safe but in this wide open area, she had to go somewhere and fast. Because she didn't know anybody in this area, she just drove in the opposite direction of the tunneling cloud as fast as she could safely go. With no cars in front of her and the cloud behind her, she was able to push the peddle down to the floor but the old 1965 Mustang did not want to go as fast as she was hoping for. The tunnel was catching up with her and she had nowhere to go. With the sound of it, sounding as a train horn right in her ears, it was close; too close. She closed her eyes for just a second but when she opened them, things were twirling around her, and she knew 'this was it'. With a sudden sharp pain in her head, everything went black.
