Alone

Alone… the only emotion I’ll ever feel again...I’m not just saying that

because my boyfriend broke up with me or my best friend lied behind my back,

no… I am the only person left on this Earth.

A year ago the world became unlivable and the population finally began to

take action. The government began issuing thousands of transports to get us to a

new planet, researchers were searching for a new usable planet like never before

and families were packing the necessities.

Even with all this planning no one was prepared for the first meteorite. The

huge ball of rock and fire hit in the night eradicating entire small towns without

anyone realizing. It came in too fast for scientists to warn us.

We knew the world was going to end soon. Hell, we’ve been polluting it for

decades without a sign of ever stopping. Because of humanity's stupidity we had

to begin rationing water a few months ago, trees of all kind are now an endangered

species and the population has begun dying off due to widespread disease.

Evacuations started as quickly as they could after the first strike, but billions

of people trying to escape the toxic world and lugging around giant spaceships is

time consuming. It took weeks to fill even one transport.

The world only got worse as time went on. The asteroids began getting

more and more frequent and it almost seemed the world wanted to be

destroyed. Animals would randomly drop dead in piles causing countless

extinctions all at once. Fires, hurricanes, tornadoes and other natural disasters

caused millions of casualties. Whole families died before even getting a chance to

finish packing to leave.
