Lightning flashed and crackled outside, illuminating the dark room where the girl slep. Her short dark brown covered her thin face, and her sheets covered her petit frame. She slept peacefull, the storm not bothering her. She liked thunderstorms and rain anyways. Her boyfriend had just brought her upstairs and tucked her in, as she had been too tired to bring herself upstairs. Right now he was getting in his car, reading to drive home, despite the threatening lightning and fierce winds.
The girl continued dreaming as thunder boomed loudly, her thoughts still on the passion and heat she had shared with him less than fifteen minutes ago. A loud crash disturbed her peace. A huge piece of metal came flying through the window, plunging itself into her midsection. The girl screamed in agony as the metal sank deeper and deeper into her body, destroying nerves and crushing her spine. The sanguine color she had admired, even lusted over, oozed out of her and onto her sheets and skin. Her mother, alerted by the cries of pain, rushed into the room and let out a gasp of horror at her daughter.
The girl screamed yet again in pain, her nerves sending pulses like sledgehammers to her brain. Again and again she shrieked in agony as her mother stood wide-eyed in terror, watching the metal drive itself deeper and deeper into her body.
Lightning struck again, this time using the metal chunk as a lightning rod. The girl wailed in agony as the white-hot current pulsed through her body. Flames burst from her stomach, quickly spreading to the rest of her. She howled again and again in pain as flames licked hungrily at her flesh. She struggled and shrieked more and more until she expired. Her once beautiful, supply body little more than charred ash.
The next morning, her boyfriend's car was found crashed on the side of the road. He had been heavily intoxicated and crashed into an eighteen wheeler. The collision threw his bumper off of the car and into the strong winds, which carried it back to the woman he loved, as if to say goodbye to her and possibly bade her to join him.
A few miles away, a boy woke with a start. Sweat had drenched his brow, and he was panting heavily. Reaching behind his bed, he unearthed the "picture" his ex girlfriend had given him before their breakup. He silently cursed her name and went back to sleep.
