She ran as fast as she could toward the chapel.
Carrie went into the broken building. She moved toward the back where there was still some roof that could protect her from the storm.
But, halfway to the back, she stopped. She noticed some shapes in the darkness. It looked like a small group of people crouched low to the ground. She could see them. She could also see through them. Carrie screamed.
Behind her, she sensed a presence. She could not look back. She could not move forward. She could not speak. She could not even breathe.
Suddenly she was thrown through the air. She landed on her back meters from the chapel. Her head hit the ground. She was knocked unconscious.
“Mom…Mom? Can you talk to me? Mom!”
Carrie heard Sam's voice but couldn't see him or answer. "Where am I?" she thought. Her head hurt. Her mind was filled with visions of fire and people crowded together. All she could feel was fear.
"What's wrong with her, Stu? Why can't she answer? Where is the ambulance?"
"I don't know. I'm sure they're on their way. Don't worry. She'll be…she’ll be fine."
"But where did the blisters come from Stuart? Look at her feet. What is happening?"
Sam was crying. Stuart grabbed hold of his little brother and held him close.
Carrie wanted to cry. All she wanted to do was speak to her boys. To see them.
