"Laser Show" by Marie O'Grady
Last night was crazy! I mean, there were laser light shows, explosions, screaming and panicking. I couldn't believe it. When the thing happened, everyone was in an uproar, running as fast as they could and screaming. They never came up with a slogan for last night's disaster, but watching these weird creatures kill nearly everyone was amazing, both in an awesome and totally scary way. My dad was out of town, so he's probably okay, but who knows? Not me. My mom tried taking my older brother away from one of the things, but they were both eaten. It was grody, man!At least I know that my little brother and I are okay. We have to hide though. Now some of these things are friends of mine. They started to like us, me and my brother, and didn't think that we deserved to die. That could be because I lead them to a group of the stupidest and moost annoying people I know, and they were willing to let me and my little brother survive because we supplied them with a big herd of moving food. Like I said, it isn't all bad; it sucks that big brother and Mom are gone, though. There's probably, maybe, one hundred thousand people left...but hey, whose counting. Gotta go now. Little brother is trying to get into the sleeping chambers of the things. I don't want to lose him, too. Until the next disaster, be careful out there folks...it's ugly.
