It happened fast.
Very …
Fast!
Fog so thick I couldn’t see but a few feet in front of me …
Headlights didn’t help all that much …
I was going pretty slow …
All of a sudden …
BOOM!
Some kind of explosion shook the ASV and flashed the fog to bright white; like I opened my eyes inside a big vat of milk! I stomped on the brakes and just kind of sat there stunned.
Couldn’t see anything …
Couldn’t hear anything!
Then …
All hell broke loose!
BOOM!
Ground shook like an earthquake tremor or something!
Something moving in the fog!
Big red glow flickering behind them …
Girls staggering …
Running …
Limping …
Dragging each other …
Waving …
Screaming!
Stunned me dead stupid!
They came right at me …
Waving …
Screaming …
Crying …
Bleeding!
Running like in slow motion …
Away from the giant red glow …
Right towards me!
Their clothes looked funny …
Uniforms …
Cheerleaders?
What th’fuck, over!
