   * BREAKING NEWS * This is Gale Weatherman coming to you live from our Times Square location. This just in, there was a explosion at 1 Police Plaza a few minutes ago. Fifteen people have been injured and five people have been confirmed as dead at the scene. Though we do not know what or who may have caused the explosion there was a duffle bag found at the scene. In it was an alarm clock, a piece of rope tied to an action figure and a note that read "That was only one, can you find the rest before time runs out ? - Xoxo" The mayor has commented and said "At this point in time we do not know where the other bombs are planted, but I'm going to ask the city of New York to come together in unity until we figure this out. We have enlisted help from the Armed Forces and other specialized forces like the NSA CIA and FBI. We will work effortlessly till we come to an explanation as to why this has happened to out city."

That was the last thing I remembered before I woke up under a pile of debris. The sheetrock pressed up against my chest made it hard for me to breath. That along with a pile of rocks and a cloud of smoke made my asthma act up severely. My ear was ringing, my head was banging and I couldn't see much. Only a few cut power lines sparking over the now destroyed cubicle and papers scattered over the floor. I looked to my left and I saw Janice, our new floor intern. She was fresh out of college and had only been working with us for a couple months, she was only 22 years old. I tried to gather my self to sit up, there was a huge hole in the wall. It was about 20 feet wide, and 15 feet high. I realized I couldn't move my legs, immediately I started to panic. Crying hysterically, i started feeling very light headed. Before I passed out all I heard was this loud thump, when I looked up all I could see was a silhouette of man. Who was it ? Strong and standing tall in a blue suit with a single white star on his chest. Was it him ? I could feel the Sheetrock be lifted of me with ease. That was it, I passed out. Next thing I know I was soaring through the sky like a bird who was drinking jet fuel. I looked up to see his chiseled face, serious as ever. It was him! He looked so intense, like nothing could affect his judgment. He looked down and gave me a smile, just like that I was out like a light.
