They came from the sky

The sun came up that morning over an Earth that was devastated. All of the buildings had crumbled to the ground, all of the lakes, rivers, and oceans had dried up, and all of the people were gone. On a lonely, flat, endless plain you could see a lone horse walking in the distance. The horse walked over hard sand and dirt. All grass, trees, and plants were gone. Also in the distance, far away from the horse, there was a lone Saint Bernard dog walking in the distance. The dog was injured and limped. The horse and dog approached each other. “Are you hurt badly?” asked the horse. Just some scratches, the dog replied, but what has happened to you? If I tell you, you are not going to believe me, the dog said in a very serious way. I will believe you but please tell me, the horse insisted. Well do you really know what happened to the earth? “No, I just know that something came from the sky and them everything was gone”, the horse answered; that’s just a part of what happened, the complete story is that they came and everything they wanted, and destructed the rest. What are you talking about? Who are they? The horse confuse ask. They are the one that came from the sky, How do you know that?, I was there when it happened, and they took my family, after they torture I had the opportunity and I scape, I have to go back and rescue my family, Would you help me? I cannot do it by myself? But what if they caught us? , the horse said in a scary way; “I have to take the risk no matter what happens” what would you do if you were in my place? If I was in you place I would do the same. They walked miles and miles until they get to the dogs house, when they arrived the saw the house completely destroy and they found some strange footprints leading to the forest; The horse didn’t wanted to go on, because he was very afraid of the mysteries of the woods, the dog told him don’t be afraid, everything is going to be ok and I would be there. They came into the forest, and they felt that somebody was chasing them, and they start running, and they saw a light in the middle of the forest and they decided to get close to find out what it was; when they were close enough, they saw the shadow of the family and tried to get closer to see them better, and when they were right in front of they could see that they were death. In that moment the creature that was following then caught them. Immediately the dog woke up and saw that everything was a bad dream, since that day he learn to appreciate his family, and to show his love, because he realize that they could be gone in any moment.
