A motorcycle crashed into the freedom tower. Jessica checked her watch. 7:32. Not soon enough. Too soon. It would happen, it was happening, it was true. What she saw there was true. All the fear she felt then rushed back into her throat, making it hard to breathe. She tugged at her best friend's sleeve, gesturing to him that it was time. It was happening. She was right.
The world economy collapsed at 7:34 eastern standard time, the value of any and all currency at dead zero. Governments collapsed. The world fell into riots. Total chaos. The end. But Jessica and David drove away from New York City to a prepared bunker in the woods of upstate New York in their well-stocked van. Survivors. Lucky. Unlucky. The end of the world had begun, just as she had been told it would, with three minutes to spare before the next event.
