You're alone after an earthquake now, trying to survive
Also you're like thirteen
And you live on an island in the middle of nowhere in Washington State
And you have two other kids to babysit
So you're not at home
And you are completely and wildly unprepared for all of this
And you don't actually know how to deal with someone getting a giant gash in their arm
And you have to leave the house because gas leak
And you also don't actually know how to deal with someone breaking their leg
And you don't ever get contacted by any other survivors until the very end even though there have to be other people alive on your island
And you don't actually know how to deal with someone's giant arm gash getting infected
And your house sank
And you'd get rated E10+ for scenes of peril if you were a videogame
(Also you have an endnote: What if I wrote this entire post in single sentences and left out all the end marks)

Very cleverly written, Sam!
