This was a part of my year 8 descriptive writing project. This is a loose connection to cars, it had driving in it. depending on how much homework i get and how many requests i get i might make something better. @Tizzy
It was a normal evening when 'it' happened. I was driving home after visiting my parents in Manchester. When I left it was about six o'clock. I really should have left earlier because it was an hours drive and winter was coming. When 'it' happened I was about 15 minutes away from home and it was dark enough for me to have to turn my headlights on. I was driving up a quiet, country road. There was a forest with very tall trees where I would sometimes walk my dog. It was a cloudy night; I knew there would be a storm coming. A clap of thunder rolled through the sky and I felt frustrated. I hated driving in the rain, it was much more difficult. If I had known what was about to happen I would have been thinking something very different. As I turned round the bend I saw a man standing in the middle of the road, just standing there. I swerved just in time and went onto the grass. I got out of the car and slammed the door. The man was staring at something but even so I marched right up to him. I was going to say something but when I saw what he was looking at I had no recollection of what it was. In the sky, hovering just underneath the clouds, was a circular flying object. I had no idea what it was but I had a feeling that it was dangerous. As a bolt of lightning, coming from the aircraft, hit just to the left of us that feeling was confirmed. 'Run!' I yelled and that is exactly what we both did. We ran straight into the forest, and that was out first mistake.
