"The world went quiet. Too quiet."
How and why? Just use that line as a basis for a short story!

silence

I stood there, too entranced to move. This feeling slowly crept over me as I drifted off into a deep slumber. This was a feeling of darkness. Something crept over me which made me feel afraid, but then, in an instant, I felt releived. It was almost like everything holding me down just slipped away, and I was left with a feeling of peace. It was a good feeling.

I noticed a light, so I approached with caution. It was my desk lamp. Why am I here? I remember being only a few blocks away, walking to work, when everything went blank. Now I am here, sitting in my room, listening for a noise. Something, anything. It's just a little quiet - too quiet.
