His future, and that of many others were now laid in mists, Karrson thought as he patted the dust off his clothes from the now growing dust-rain and went in search of his classroom.

Yes, he confirmed to himself as he laid on hid bed. The armed forces came, and after a briefing in the classroom they were told that they would be evacuated the next day, leaving them a night to pack and rest. Most of his roommates had gone to sleep already. Before they slept the had a very boyish discussion on the cause of the explosion, the Ground Zero Incident, the military experts named it. Some said it was a large scale terrorist attack in which perhaps nuclear weapons were involved. Unlikely it seemed to Karrson that the most secreted parts of every nuclear nation’s arsenal could simply be stolen and remain unnoticed. Well, of course, there may always be exceptions, and other ways to obtain or create a nuclear weapons are available. If that be true, thought Karrson, than they had possibly been exposed to deadly doses of radiation already, and a painful would await them, as he look at the dust falling like snow outside the window.He was a southerner, and has never seen snow before, to those who have seen snow maybe the dust would appear to be but a rough imitation, but to Karrson it was all the same, and he found it breathtakingly beautiful.As a matter of fact, he now sat on the windowsill with one leg before him and the other touching the floor. Nukes? Can these weapons of annihilation create such beauty as he saw out of thw window? He thought not and the pillar of dust convinced more. Maybe aliens, some said. Still unlikely that seemed to him, yet he could say nothing to oppose it, for, according to his friends, the universe is infinitely large and thus its chances remain unknown.
