Recommended: Power outage incident

Four weeks ago, it was Thanksgiving, almost all of my family and some of my friends were there. We had just had a good meal and some were ready to leave. Me and my girlfriend were getting ready to go, and as we said goodbye to our families, the strangest thing happened. The power in the house went out and the weather was great, so that couldn't have caused it. I went up to the door to look outside to see if this had effected anyone else. When I tried to open the door, it had locked. I asked if someone had locked it, everyone said "No." I went to unlock it and it wouldn't budge. I went to the back door, it was locked as well. Then, as if out of nowhere, I heard screaming. It sounded as if it came from the basement, so I rushed there with

    Me and my family were done watching an exciting movie at AMC called “Ready Player One”. It was was about video games and ,also it has a lot of action too. Trent and I were acting like a lunatic after the movie so my mom told me to stop and I calmed down a bit, but that didn’t stop Trent though. My dad walked towards the soda machine refilling the drink and the enormous popcorn bowl. I felt really spiritless to the point where I just wanted to help my dad refill the drink. My mom disappeared into the restroom and Trent was fooling around like a insane monkey. While I continued refilling the drink, I heard a click and banging on the glass door. I then turned around and saw Trent banging on the door outside, that’s when I realized that Trent locked himself out of the theater. “HELP ME,” Trent said through the door, but I couldn’t hear him, it just made me burst out laughing. “Trent how did you get outside”, I could barely get the words out of my mouth since I was laughing all over the place. “ What’s going on,

    The moment that the torment ended and I had time to configure my senses I ran to my still screaming sister. I moved her to the couch and gave her a pillow that she clenched onto as if it was her own child. I then VERY SLOWLY crept over to the door. I had no idea what had just happened or where it even came from. I reach the door and crack it open the slightest. It’s pitch black out. Not a single noise hits my ears. The fact that there’s a black out in San Bernardino, CA and not a single person is trying to take advantage of it scares me. What in the world is going on?

I was really looking forward to getting home and slumping on the couch, watching Season 2 of Stranger Things written by the best, Matt Duffer. I had already been walking for 10 minutes and my feet started to hurt. I didn’t have my phone with me, so I couldn’t text my mom and let her know where I was .

It was already dark so I quickly sat up and started walking the rest of the way home.

Once the officer gets back in his car we all start laughing while at the same time wondering if the police will ask to see our so called sick mother.

    I can clearly remember being in the car on a humid day with a little overcast. We were driving in the car when all of a sudden the wind started to pick up and it started raining a bit. Within five minutes, the weather progressed and there was so much wind blowing around the car that we could no longer hear the radio. I can remember when I saw a stop sign spinning in circles like a “merry-go-round'; with electrical problems. I do not remember how my mother got us home so quickly and where we were because all around us was a thick gray fog. However, all I can recall from that point on was sitting with my head in my lap in the back seat of the car. I never witnessed the true power of nature until this incident.
