Dear Author... This was really good! I was totally creeped out! The end could be coming... but how... is this going to be the way? Will any of us make it out of here alive? Who's gone to live up high!!!?!

This is a very well written story about the last moments alive. It seems like a great way to get transported to the afterlife. As the contest states, the end of the world drives this amazing story. Great job and good luck!

I loved reading this..what started as a very dramatic and thought provoking image, with lots of tension, ended in a very warm and comforting climax. I thought the character description and imagery were very good and I could see in my imagination everything taking place very clearly...I really enjoyed it.

Interesting.

I found myself wondering if I was looking at a dream in a dream, wondering which world was the real one, the one burning away without hope or the one burning away with an escape. An escape through a gate made of bubbles would seem to be the obvious "dreamscape" but good apocalypses are unpredictable, after all.

Quite enjoyed!

A well conceived story supplemented by good storytelling. I enjoyed the approach you took with the piece and i could pick up on the projected the notes of desperation and it felt genuine and unsettlingly plausible as a narrative. I could see myself enjoyong an expanded version of the story. Great work.

Yep, well done. No "nits' I see except maybe the whole thing. This sounds like "The Awakening" when solar flares consume the earth. You have, kindly, opened a portal, for certain people. I am not sure why but I am of the opinion you need to stop the solar flares. You seem more than capable of doing that, why not do it?

Jackson's a good person and does not deserve destruction, nor does the earth. It would be nice if you explored the roots of cancer and discovered who is responsible for it.

Thanks, good story.
Have no sixes,

    Thanx for dropping by, Jeff....and, you're right, that would have been a good angle for a different contest....this one, we're stuck with the destruction of the Earth being imminent and the whole driving force of the write. ;) ;) Good to hear from you and Happy New Year! ;) ;)

    Look forward to a write of yours not controlled by a "contest."

    Thanks
