How Many Chances???

As I awoke half startled, face still screwed up in a frown. I lay there quietly, wondering what in the world had just gone down. I raised myself up slowly, cautious of what I might find. Could that have been the sound of Gabriels trumpet, the end of all mankind. It was so dark,
