911DA Story: Story

Well I was going to school that morning. When I stepped into my classroom I saw my teacher crying, wondering why she might be crying. I was thinking to myself, why? would she be crying. I looked up at the television, to see the newscaster flashing the same report over and over. At first I couldn't figure out what was going on. All I saw was a plane crashing into the empire state building, and seeing it collapsing. Then I figured out was going on, NewYork City wasn't going to be the same anymore after this day.
