The air began to stir.
That’s how it always started.
A slight tingling in the breeze above your head that made its way to the hair on your arms.
Something was coming.

A meteorological shift in weather patterns.
That’s what they had told everyone.
Very few knew what really caused the disturbances.
Standing there now feeling the buildup of the wind she knew exactly what was coming...
