The night was clear with a dreamy sky. The kids were in the back of the truck. They layed on their backs and saw the trees and street lights run by. That is until we drove out of town and into the country. Stars called to my kids eyes like flowers on a spring day. 

On our way home there was to huge flash. The next thing I remembered was waking up in the grass and then seeing my truck flipped over. I screamed. Both my children were dead. 

I held them both. For hours all I could hear was their ghostly voices. In my mind I said all the prayers I knew over and over again. And then there was the flash again. 

When I opened my eyes we were inside of a clear room. I layed my kids down and stood up. I walked toward a window and saw the earth below. 

I turned back to look at my kids and saw that some creature some thing had picked their bodies up and had them floating beside it. I tried to tackle whatever it was but found I could not move.

The creature then placed 2 color filled orbs on my children's bodies. There were strange sounds and chimes. Every vein inside of my kids bodies seem to be filled with light.. it was beyond what beautiful could describe. Their bodies got brighter and brighter. The creature would look at me from time to time with its white eyes. 

Both my children's bodies were as bright as the sun. Then I saw something enter their bodies from outside this room. Both of them stop shining. And then they opened their eyes. 

Once again there was a flash and the three of us were back at the truck. I then heard a voice inside of my mind. It spoke 2 words.. " I'm sorry"
It was an accident
