My friend Jackie came over to my house, but didn’t tell me she was moving.
Answer:
I kept looking over my shoulder, expecting to hear soldiers ordering me to stop or worse, opening fire on me. I never asked for any of this, I was just a simple government worker until yesterday when everything changed.
The text message came into my phone at about 10:32am while I was at my desk working and for sure, it looked like a prank text which I didn't find funny. Some minutes after that, I got a call from an unlisted number who gave me the most chilling news I've ever heard, and which I still hope against hope that somehow this is all a prank.
The text message contained information about an alleged nuclear attack against Russia in less than 16 hours, which would surely cause a world war. It said the President and some members of the military were keeping it top-secret and were going to launch the attack without letting Congress know. It was up to me to get this information to the Speaker of the House so he can hopefully stop the madness.
The sender was part of the team who were working on the nuclear weapon but he somehow smuggled the information to me.
The government were on to me and agents were already on their way to pick me up, it was a race against time to show the Speaker the text message and convince him of its authenticity and hope he acts fast.

A young naval officer in a neat uniform announces that there is hope and that the people should be patient because help — a naval hospital ship — is coming. The survivors breathe easier knowing help is on the way.
