She leaned her head forward and quickly looked around in somewhat of a groggy state. Puzzled as to what woke her up, she threw off the fluffy white bed sheet and looked over at the alarm clock on the desk to the side of her bed. "<span style="font-weight: bold">3:32 am</span>", the green digits illuminated in the dark room.<br/><br/>"<span style="font-style: italic">Ma'am, open up!</span>" Shouted a voice from outside the door.<br/><br/>"<span style="font-style: italic">Wh... who's there?!</span>" She quietly crept to the door of her 4 room apartment and looked through the peep hole, all while brushing her light brown hair out of her face. 6 men had squeezed themselves into the narrow corridor outside her apartment.  2 of them dressed in black suits, they looked like some one you would see on a Men in Black movie or something - both holding small hand guns.<br/><br/>The other 4 were in some sort of yellowish plastic suits. They both wielded much larger guns.<br/><br/>The second man in the black suit spoke up "<span style="font-style: italic">Ma'am. This is urgent, open the door</span>".<br/><br/>She slid the chain lock across the door, and turned the rusty metal lock open. They could have easily busted in if they had wanted.<br/><br/>As soon as the she began to open the door, 2 of the men in the plastic-type suits bashed the old wooden door open nearly knocking her over and moved into the room with guns drawn. They had to be at least 6'5" tall. Each of them began closing blinds, and looking out windows.<br/><br/>The 2 men in black stood at the door, each with another plastic man beside them. One was tall, possibly 6'2" and had a lighter skin tone. The other, somewhat shorter, but still taller than her was tanned. They each had glasses and ear pieces.<br/><br/>"<span style="font-style: italic">Miss, you will need to come with us right now.</span>" The tanned man urgently prompted the two plastic men to start out of the building.<br/><br/>"<span style="font-style: italic">I'm not going anywhere until you tell me who you are!</span>" She screamed as the other two men ushered her out the door.<br/><br/>"<span style="font-style: italic">Your father sent us. The USA has issued a DEFCOM 2 warning to all residents.  We are to get you out of here.</span>" Each of them nodded and began moving to the emergency stairs that would eventually reach the first floor, of the 8 floor apartment building. The other 4 men followed close behind not breaking from position, not even once.<br/><br/>Each of them began talking in their ear pieces, while moving so quickly down the stairs she could barely keep up.<br/><br/>They reached the two glass entrance doors, and emerged to the city street she just started calling home. The cold breeze nipped at her face and neck all while moon light shone across her pale skin. She hadn't even had time to change out of her pajamas.<br/><br/>Everything was<span style="font-weight: bold">quiet</span>.<br/><br/>She looked around; 2 vehicles waited under the yellow shine of the street lights. A black older modeled car which had clearly been newly painted, and a dark green military jeep with room enough for 4.<br/><br/>The men split up, the yellow suites moved across the lawn towards the military jeep. While the men in black made their way down the front cement walk to the black car.<br/><br/>She jerked on the arm of the two men who were pulling her "<span style="font-style: italic">Where are we goin...</span>"Just as the men sat in the military jeep a loud noise cut through the air, the jeep exploded into flames. Her ears started ringing and the intense heat and brightness instantly shut her eyes. Windows shattered from the building behind her.<br/><br/>The mangled steel frame of the jeep hit the ground 20 feet down the road, chipping up bits of pavement and littering the ground with metal scrap. The 2 men in black grabbed her again and started running towards the building for cover. Before they made it back up the cement path another explosion sent the black car sailing in the air, and knocking her to the ground.<br/><br/>Everything went<span style="font-style: italic">silent</span>, everything went<span style="font-weight: bold">white</span>.
