The Final Storm

Extreme events have been occurring around the world, whether they be human driven ones such as riots, or natural ones such as extreme weather. Tom and Gillian Grady and their thirteen year old son Graham Grady, who recently moved from the city to the country in an effort to save their family unit, are weathering an extreme event of their own, a heavy rainstorm, unlike one they have ever experienced. Immediately after they lose power, a man stumbles into their house and collapses. When the man regains consciousness the next morning after the storm has passed, all he can remember is that his name is Silas Hendershot, and that he just experienced some traumatic event. He also believes that their farmhouse is his. His ramblings are also as he is speaking with the voice of God. Beyond the issue of Silas having nowhere to go, Gillian, thinking that he is a kind and caring man, wants to let him stay for as long as he needs. Tom, however, doesn't trust him, believing that he is not telling them all he knows. What else Silas does say implies that some catastrophic event has occurred, and that the apocalypse is near. Although not wanting to admit it, Tom slowly does begin to believe Silas' God driven messages about what has happened and what may be about to happen. Regardless, they are still humans on Earth and decisions that each of them makes still has human related consequences.
