It was the day before the Chicago fire. I was moving to Chicago and I could not wait. We were traveling by train. Once we were there it was dark so we went to are new home. First we unpacked all of our stuff. Then we all got into our beds and went to sleep. Then about at 9:00pm I was awakened by alarms. I heard loud firetrucks people were loudly yelling FIRE FIRE. People were screaming HELP! Firemen quickly fled to the huge fire. I was regretting coming to chicago. The I heard my parents yelling WILL come here! So I quickly ran to them and they said we need to get out of the house. So we ran to the door but the door was blocked by these heavy pieces of wood that had been pickup by the strong wind and carried to our house.
We tried pushing as hard as we could, but it wouldn’t budge. So then we broke throw the glass window. Firemen helped us get past the burning wood. Then they asked us if we were ok we all said yes. Then they took us to the train that we were on to take us to Chicago. And soon enough we were back at our old home.
