Novel & Cerita Falling Skies 1

My boot lands on wet earth. And like a nightmare, the ground disappears beneath me. For one horrible second, nothing happens. Then everything does. The soil gives out. Loose rocks slide violently beneath my feet. My stomach drops. “Oh shi—” The incline collapses under me. I scream. And then I’m falling.

She sniffed, walking inside, feeling a bit depressed that she didn’t get that hug. Selena walked after her, bombarding her with questions, “What happened? Why didn’t you call me? How can you be so careless? Was that why you went to the hospital?!” “I fell down.” Cassandra mumbled, throwing herself on the couch, staring up to see the cat’s tail sashaying from the ceiling fan. She also noticed how the lamp of the fan was missing.

I dial my emergency number since my phone is in my hand. I watched Candice trying to flip herself and struggle to be free then she kicked the guy making her free. We both run and we went to an dark alley. Then we heard a gun shoot and we automatically frooze. Were both shivering of too much fright. "Hello babe!" And that's the last time I ever witness since I feel a needle in my neck making my eyes closed feeling dizzy. ************************************ Present I ran as I watched her being drag out of nowhere. I feel afraid since I didn't know the place where in. All I can hear a bird chirping.

her heart was pounding loudly in her ear that she thought she would pass out. Isabella received whoosh of hair , shutting her eyes tightly she found herself out of Rudy Jone's office. Slowly her eyelids drops open, staring around she found herself in between sidney and Hayden. They were both determined , angry and dangerous. she stop breathing for some seconds when she witness Beasty emerging and Sidney shifting too. Oh goodness! Not yet. Isabella thought to herself in horror.

“You want to call the police? Go ahead if you’ve got the guts! “A nobody from some second-rate college. Without me, who would give her such a good job?” The lounge door shut, cutting off all the noise from outside. I lowered my head and looked at the woman reflected on my phone screen. Both sides of my face were swollen red, with clear finger marks printed across my cheeks. My hair had come loose, too. I looked like a crazy woman. … The door handle turned, and someone came in. It was Emily, one of the company’s old-timers.

Just as she was about to make her exit, her eyes met the piercing gaze of Doctor Hannah, who had been silently observing from the doorway. Startled, the nurse let out a piercing scream, jolting Lena awake. Jayden, alarmed by the commotion, rushed into the room, his heart pounding with fear for his wife and child. His eyes widened in shock as he saw the nurse cradling his newborn in her arms while a lifeless baby lay near Lena.

The falling rocks entombed his family, community, and all he knew. His ears were deafened by the colossal crashes and his eyes by the humungous dust clouds. He couldn't hear anything or see anything, and he felt as if he was coughing up blood, trying to free his throat from those all-encompassing streams and plumes of rocks and dirt, hellbent on suffocating him. He watched his home fall into a giant heap of dust, crushed under his own weight. He looked up towards the cloudy, grey skies, and saw a swarm of tiny, grey dots under the cloud cover. He needed to rescue his family. He stood to sprint towards them, only to see the first of the burning, red flames to fall from the sky.

Across the sky panels, I see cracks forming. Each crack pulses in rhythm with the ache inside me. “You want exceptional?” he says softly. “Let’s escalate.” He lifts his hand. The city below freezes. Cars halt mid-motion. People suspended mid-step. Time isolates me. Then— The air tears open beside me. Dylan falls through it. Hard. He lands on one knee, breath ragged, eyes wild. The moment he looks up and sees me— The heat detonates. It is not gentle reunion. It is collision.

Then we’re falling. Alex yanks me against him as the emergency lights flicker on, casting everything in a sickly red glow. His heart pounds against my cheek, his arms forming a protective cage around me. Eliana stumbles, catching herself against the wall. Marcus’s papers scatter across the floor like autumn leaves, revealing glimpses of damning evidence in their descent. “The emergency brakes should engage automatically,” Alex starts, his voice steady despite our plunge. “The system was just inspected last—” Another shriek of metal cuts him off. We drop faster, the floor numbers blurring past: 15, 14, 13… The force pushes us up slightly, creating a sickening sensation of weightlessness.

"We’re leaving. Now." The sky outside pulsed with red and orange, the city burning itself to ash. Autumn flinched at every new explosion. Her hands gripped the seat, knuckles white. Bastion stole a look—she was smaller than ever, huddled in the shadow of the console, hair tangled, face streaked with tears. He watched the city shrink in the rear viewport. Streets are splitting open. whole neighborhoods were being swallowed up. Towers falling. The sky choked black. The world she’d known—gone in minutes.
