THE REAL WORLD SOUTH COAST METRO

THUNDERSTORM RATTLES SOUTH ORANGE COUNTY - 2 people where taken in for heart palpitations and it has been confirmed that lightning struck the ground four times in south Orange County. No deaths at this time but its really to early to tell as rescuers comb through apartments and homes as most people hide under-neithe blankets and beds to take cover from these deadly atmospheric discharges of electricity that can reach in excuses of 54,000 degrees Fahrenheit, and you really can't track these suckers they just strike where ever they want so it COMPLETELY NORMAL FOR SOMEONE TO BE SCARED OF THEM, in fact I believe more people should be a little more fearful of these death rays.

LAST NIGHT ON THE REAL WORLD SOUTH COAST METRO

NAT: What was that?
PHE: I don't know
(flash of blinding light)
PHE: O M G!!!
(thunder)
PHE: AHHHHH I'm going to Krystals room
(tapping on her door)
PHE: Krystal...I think we are having a thunder storm
(flash of light)
KRYS: what....
PHE: (defy's gravity and literally flies into Krystals bed without an invitation)
KRYS: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?
PHE: but I'm scared, please
KRYS: you can have this thin sheet, DON'T TOUCH ME!

(lightning and thunder crackle in the midnight sky and rattle our small apartment, all 3 of us look outside our back window to watch as thick bolts of lightning attack the building next to us, there is no point in counting to see how close the storm is, it is pretty much cuddling in the bed with us, its that close)

NAT: I think that was it, I have seen worse in Chicago son
PHE: so your going to stay in the room and die alone?
KRYS: Phoebe its over, sleep in your own bed

NAT: O ya I remember that, we all ran and left Matthew behind
PHE: yeah and mom is screaming from the house GET YOUR BROTHER

KRYS: ok we will sleep with our door open AGAIN!!! but phoebe you can't keep running to my room I will pepper spray you one day
PHE: its a risk I am willing to take
NAT: I am going write a real world about this
PHE: No that my thing, I'll write it
NAT: ok fine
PHE: but you submissions are always welcomed

(everyone is in bed, silence fills the sky)

NAT: Did you think the world was going to end?
PHE: Yes I woke up and was like did the earth just split open, o man I'm still here must have not made it, but it felt nice that you guys didn't make it either
NAT: wow
(lightning and thunder strikes again)
PHE: AHHH (huddles under her blanket)
NAT: AHAHAHAHA God heard that
PHE: Forgive me Lord

Next Day

JAMES: I'm confused by all this talk of "thunder". I must have slept right through it.
NAT: Phoebe didn't, she is scared of thunder, she thought it was the end of the world, I think she prayed herself to sleep.

NAT: She is weak, Stupid Mexican
JAMES: And now we are going to have one on the Supreme Court, oh wait...never mind she is Puerto Rican
NAT: I hate Puerto Ricans
JAMES: My wife is Puerto Rican
