Accident

I knew something had happened outside because there was a deathly hush. I carefully went up towards the road, nature seemed to have gone into shock. There had been a terrible car accident. In the middle of the road was a pile of crumpled metal, faintly smoking. I think there were two cars locked in an intimate metallic embrace. I was scared to go near, afraid of what I might see. Other people arrived but nobody went near. Horror seeped towards us, keeping us away. I heard voices on mobile phones. No police arrived, no fire brigade and no ambulance. We waited and waited. Eventually I left. For all I know it still remains.

Obviously something scary around that I need to look at and manfully tackle, can think of several things!
