Quickly





quick·ly [kwik-lee] 

–adverb
with speed; rapidly; very soon.



With the tornado sirens blaring at 3 a.m, I quickly grabbed my kids and headed downstairs. I had every intention of camping out in the basement. Except, I have a very creepy basement. And I absolutely despise having to be down there. So rather than creep into the basement, kids in tow, I decided to have the kids lay for a bit in the living room, about 7 feet from the basement door. And as quickly as the sirens alarmed, they died down and we returned to sleep. Well, everyone but me. I had to be absolutely certain that there would be no more severe weather.
