Survivor
Title: Survivor
Challenge/Prompt: Cloud
Original Fiction
Rating: PG
Warnings: None
It was the last time she ever heard her own name. Frightening mushroom clouds had blocked out the sunlight, and the world as she knew it had disappeared in an instant. The memory of that day stayed with her, even though the very thought of it made her heart ache with longing.
Yet, somehow she had survived.
"A fantasy," she thought, as her eyes scanned the silent valley below. "The word 'survivor' isn't just a fantasy."
She knew her chances of finding anyone alive were slim, but she continued, allowing what little hope she had left to carry her onward.
