Just as we flipped our
backs we were breathless to see…
Hurry
up Kevin or else you will be taken in by the swirling tornado. We did not have
much time to talk as the tornado was gaining on us. Kevin a lad of mine was
lacking behind and the two of us were in front waiting for him to catch up. The
sky was getting darker and darker and with the clock ticking, the sight was
becoming unbearable to keep facing at. ’’Can’t the two of you
just take me by your arms? I can’t go any further.” Kevin exclaimed. “It’s not the time to ask such
bizarre favors; don’t give way so easily.”
The
tornado was so vigorous that we could feel its intensity below our feet. It
seemed as if it was rumbling for something to feed on. The three of us tried to
make way to our boats which were on the sea shore. It was hard to budge through
the woods but eventually we were relieved to catch sight of our boats.’’ Come
on guys just a little more and we will be cruising’’. James shrieked in a
reassured manner. ‘’Guys, guys……..Would you want to peek back for a few
seconds’’? Kevin politely said giving us a shrug.
Just
as we flipped our backs we were breathless and hallucinating to see hell up in
front of us. This was just lunatic. Chills were sent up my spine. Everyone’s
eyes were glued to the churning tornado in an uncanny way. Our feet were wedged
and no one could dare utter even a single word. The wind that screeched the
sand off the earth’s surface was piercing through and now our body was oozing
abundantly from numerous parts. We all had given in. My body was getting
incompatible and the sand that was infected prevented the blood flow. I was
losing sense and getting numb. Suddenly, I fell to the ground and
simultaneously the other two fell too.
I guess these are my last
words, they are a few but it’s all I have left to say. You guys meant everything to me and I’ll be
expecting you in the other world. I
was being sucked in sliding on the ground towards the wicked claws of death. My
eyes were getting heavier and the only thing I saw was them both smiling in
return.
