WW LESSON 8 It was August the 2nd an acrid smell in the air,but I was lax about the cool summer air and found no need to hurtle my energy to what was to me a small ordeal on the road of life. After all many people had to cope with the smell that day.Within an hour I felt congested, so I opened the window for a breath of fresh air. I breathed in the air and it smelled like a war zone with many casualties. Out of the window through the strange mist I saw a throng of people laying doown and mumbling at random. At a headlong pace I flung my body out of the window and there i stood crouche about a foot from the soon to be casualties. I could not impede to much for I had the slightest desire to be noticed. My actions that day were inevitable. I had to initiate my senses but keep myself stringent to avoid detection. Ideas of what to do smoldered inside my aching head. TO BE CONTINUED…………………………………………..
