Personal Narrative-The Asteroid In High School
Far away, the city’s doom was coming.

“Anthony!” Mom yelled.
I quickly scrub my teeth as the electricity in my toothbrush runs out, signaling I’m done. I rinse my mouth and scramble down the stairs.
With time catching up, my breakfast manages to fly straight into my hands.
My mom’s bionic eye that was charging on the counter almost fell down, but my hands barely save it from what would be a shattering drop.
Out the door now, I reach for my bike. Obviously with this great day happening, it clatters onto the ground. I sigh a sigh of disappointment and walk my bike to the end of my driveway and leave for school.
No kids are on the street as they are probably already at highschool.
“Anthony hold up!” Cory called. As usual, my friend is always

We need solar energy to survive in our city, and if an asteroid hits, anything is possible.
“Bye!” Cory is always home as fast as possible to read and do his homework. Though always late for school, his grades are near perfect.
I pull up my bike and I shut the door with more force than expected. “Hey Mom.”
Must be in her VR room I decide. I bounce downstairs, and open the soundproof door with my house pass card. “Mom,” I call out, “Did you hear about the asteroid hitting our city?”
Mom takes off her VR set,“Yes,” she replies. “Well, thanks for reminding me that I’ve spent too much time on here.”
Her eyes look a little sore and she looks a little tired.
Mom follows as we go upstairs.“Is Dad coming home today?” I ask, “ Isn’t today the day he is supposed to be coming home from his job?”
By now we’re already upstairs, with Mom ordering a new pizza, extra, extra everything. Normally I don’t like to eat fat foods, but if Dad is coming home today, then I’m willing to eat whatever he is. I go to my room and open my binder, looking at all the work I have and reluctantly, I start my studies and time flies

“This is not a drill. Go to your emergebunkers immediately.” The man quickly runs to his car in a panic really. “Sorry, but take care.” He drives off nearly twice as fast as the speed limit. Only half a minute later we were in our bunker. We had multiple cans of food in there and a small hole in the ground for business. Our bunker is about twenty feet wide in both directions and about seven feet tall. Obviously it’s underground about five feet. The city installed these ever since a horrible plague that cause multiple deaths. The people that survived, thankfully could’ve been brought to a better condition with some electronic parts such as stronger arms and legs for the ones that didn’t work anymore.
This must be a serious situation because we only use bunkers in really serious situations. Such as a plague and we need to decontaminate the city. Through a speaker in the wall the voice says, “By now you should all be in your emergebunkers. There is an asteroid as big as three miles wide in diameter expected to hit just 3 miles away.” That night I must’ve got only about an hour of sleep, I once heard the estimate of the size of the asteroid that took out the dinosaurs was about seven miles wide. What could a collision that close to where we are do even if the asteroid is less than seven miles

    However, when I asked my grandparents if they knew anybody, they said that they used knew someone who lived in Fayetteville who had a house with a bomb shelter in their backyard. The family that lived there has since moved away and no one lives on the property anymore. So, my granddad arranged for the owner of the property, who he knows, to show us the shelter. On Sunday, April 16th, we went to the property and saw the bomb shelter. We could not go inside because a hurricane had flooded the shelter. However, we could still look inside of the hallway that led to the shelter. While I was there, I took a few pictures of what we saw. Overall, this was a great experience of seeing a fallout shelter in person rather than just studying one…

    Peering up to the window, I smiled as I knew the day was going to be great. I rubbed my eyes with the heels of my hands, and jumped out of bed. Heading down the hallway to the backyard, my eyes focused on the green grass beyond the screen door, I knew this was the day. I’d been trying for weeks, but that day was different. I had a good feeling in the pit of my stomach that all the trying and failing would turn around. I grabbed my shoes and socks from the back door, sat on the wooden floor, and quickly put them on. Luckily my shoes were velcro and didn’t tie up, as I had forgotten the bunny song to help tie up shoes. As I pushed the screen door open, I noticed that Dad was already outside, taking my training wheels off. He wanted me to succeed almost as much as I did. I raced towards Dad, bounced up and gave him, what felt like, a gigantic hug, as he seemed like a giant compared to me. He put me down and I skipped into the garage, where all the magic was going to happen.…
