I have 3 days to write a short story. For my English class.

I kind of want my Excellence grade but looks like I'm going to fail my best class. Perfect.

On what subject, and how long a short story?

Here's a tip: if you run out of inspiration before words, have a mysterious cadre of ninjas suddenly jump out and attack a character. If you're not given a subject, you can even start a story with a fight scene like that.

Apparently the university is being evacuated.  My brother (the only one actually there at the moment) doesn't seem to concerned, and my sister lives close enough for him to walk, but...

That's pretty good so far. Not sure where you'd want to take it. Personally I'd go for something dialogue-heavy where Jo proselytises some kind of weird pseudo-nihilistic "nothing you do ultimately matters, so go make the most of it" ideology which I tend to associate with infinite parallel universes.
Three days is a bit tight but I'm sure you can pull something at least achieved/merit worthy in that time.

I'd volunteer but I frankly don't know if I'll have the time in the immediate future.

I'm really pressed for time. I'm uncertain I would finish it, let alone get it proofread.

Much burn. This is how I see people who join Bay12.
