Prologue

A piercing scream hit Kacey's ears, making her heart pound violently.
"Mum! Dad! Where are you?" She called frantically.
No answer.
She looked out the window, into the gale, the wind blustering leaves from the trees.
Running down the stairs, Kasey swung herself around, snatching her coat as she hurriedly strapped up her shoes.
Running full speed down the front path she quickly tied up her hair, desperate to make some use of her free arms.
She knew where she had to go.
It was obvious that a tornado was coming, meaning that she had to get to the underground shelter before this weather started heating up.
Down the lane, through the alley, over the bride to the small pothole above the underground shelter.
Holding her notebook in her mouth Kacey bent over, her fingers scrambling over the pothole until she found the clasp.
She took the first step down and was about to take another when she heard a scream, even more piercing than the last, echo over the bridge.

Looking up out of the pothole she saw a small child about to jump over into the rushing water and was about to cry out, but something made her look further.
This was when she first saw Flying Apes.
