The asteroid hit the Earth and particularly the continent of Europe with such massive force that it felt like the planet was rapped by the hard Knuckles of the gods. So much debris was thrown into the air that the blue planet was no longer visible from outer space. Forest fires were sparked and the day instantly became like night. My parents had told me a day before that they were going to London for ballroom dancing at Buckingham Palace. The ball was to mark the coming of age of Prince William. I had no clue if they had still gone to Europe and I had no way to reach them.
From our space shuttle we saw the Asteroid sail past like a ball of fire as it came in contact with Earth’s atmosphere. It was shaped like a huge bar soap. My strawberry milkshake slipped from my hand and fell to the cabin floor.
“The governments of the world are accountable for this!!” screamed Marvin. He was the head of our mission in space to fix the space shuttle OBE. “They should have known and done something about this!!”
“I was reading a magazine some days ago that speculated that even if the Government knows of an impending asteroid collide with earth, they really have no defence or protection for the Earth” I said. “That may be the end of human civilisation as we know it gentlemen.” I said sadly.
“I guess it behoves on us now to ensure that the human race continues!” said Bill with a side perverted look at Anita who was the only female on the mission. They both never got along. “We may have to draw straws to decide who gets the mating rights!!”
“Don’t you dare come near me, you psychotic infidel!!” she screamed backing away from him.
“Bill, I said it was the end of human civilisation not the end of civilised behaviour!” I cautioned.
