I was walking through the town and there was nothing, no people nothing only dust storms. I looked around and I only saw shops, they were empty it was like a ghost town I was scared and horrified. It was getting late It was getting darker and darker .I sprinted back to my home I was hopping my family was there. But no one was there I was alone with nothing no family. It was midnight. I heard creaking nose I went under the blanket But it was just the wind It was morning I woke up still no one it still was a ghost town. I was getting hungry so I went to town hopping there will be food in one of shops but there was nothing I was hungry, It was scary all alone with no one I was alone I missed my family. I missed every one there no one to play with no one to take care of me no one. I was sad no family nothing all alone it was a real GHOST TOWN. Missed my family I loved them so much I missed them. It was getting late I was tired so I went to my room were it use, to be so I went to go sleep on the couch but there was I was scared I was yelling at the top of my lungs. I started to cry because I missed them but I heard a screaming! nose in the closet I opened the closet I saw them it was my family. I was happy I wasn’t sad I was happy .We started to rebuild the town and our family was closer than ever .we checked all the houses we found most of the family’s. Everyone was thanking us for finding them they were so grateful
