You were probably running your laptop on battery power and it dropped to a critical charge level, at which point the laptop is designed to shut down automatically.

If you were just "copying" files, the originals should still be on the laptop's hard drive, but if you were "moving" them the originals will probably have been deleted.

You can try this free recovery software if necessary: http://www.easeus.com/datarecoverywizard/free-data-recovery-software.htm
