[ WP ] What will the apocalypse be like ?

It was like any other day, except the world was ending. So, you know... different. 
 
 I unwrapped my sandwich. Egg Salad with Bacon and Old Bay seasoning. It was something I ate as comfort food for the last 25 years of my life. Technically, it was gross. Why would you put these thing together? But, as it stood, it was delicious. It's what I craved. 
 
 The sun was setting, and the sky was turning bright orange. I sat on the roof my my house staring off into nothing, admiring the beauty. You could hear screams from around town, but it did n't bother me. It was something that you sort of grew used to when you found out the world was ending in five minutes, roughly. It was like white noise, almost; it was there, and you knew it, but it was more background noise than anything. 
 
 Biting into the sandwich, I noticed how good it tasted. It was one of those things I was going to miss. The crunch of the crispy bacon. The saltiness of it all. The way that the eggs slowly became nothing as they were destroyed by my incisors. Really, and this sounds kind of weird, it was one of the the more important things that I was going to miss. Sure, family and friends were up there, but food was one of the biggest things. I was going to miss how it made me feel. It made me feel safe. 
 
 What did n't make me feel safer was a giant rock coming from the sky and destroying the house next to me. It made me shiver in fear, and tears involuntarily started to descend from my eyes. I was crying, because there was nothing I can do. There is no stronger feeling in this world than helplessness, and you do n't know that feeling until you've had a house that was formally inhabited by your neighbors destroyed by a giant asteroid as you sit on your roof and polish off a sandwich. 
 
 I hated how this was ending. I had so much left to do, so much left to see. I had never seen Niagara Falls, or the Pyramids in Egypt. I wanted to sky dive, surf, and rock climb. But instead, I was watching the cloud above me turn blood red and rain fire down on top of the world around me. 
 
 The houses, grass, and telephone polls became ash, and the only thing that comforted me at all was the fact that it would be over soon. I had always been somewhat of a masochist, and I wanted to watch it all end around me. It was one of those things you ca n't quite explain, but know you need it as it happens. Here it was, too: the end of the line. 
 
 I was just glad that I got to enjoy my sandwich before the world burned around me.
