I could see the flames engulf the passenger side of the car and I could feel my lungs filling with smoke. I tried to scream but my voice wouldn't leave my dry aching throat. All I could hear was the screaming in my ears and the scratching at the back of my seat. "Sloan help me please."

I tried so desperately to reach for her hand from across the middle armrest, but it was just too hot. My skin burned from flames lapping up from the roof of the car. Blood began to drip from my lip unto my forehead. The car is upside down. I began to silently panic reaching for my seat belt as a piercing cry filled the air. "Mom! Jordan!" I felt as if I couldn't yell loud enough. To my ears my voice was forced and quiet. I couldn't get enough air into my lungs.

I began coughing, desperately trying to turn my head to see my brother and mother, but the flames were so overwhelming. Everything became blurry as I fought to keep my consciousness and the sound of sirens filled my dreams.
