Will I ever find a home?

rescued at last.

⚠trigure waning⚠

They left us tied up for weeks. Until one day I was sitting with my eyes closed, remembering my life before all of this hell, about the time me, Erica, Christina and our friend Logan spent at the riverside. And all of our memories, while the little ones naped and the older ones tried to make a plan to escape, when suddenly me Eica and Christina ropes came undone. "Guys my ropes are undone. I'm free". I told my friends happily but quietly so that the men didn't hear me. " that's amazing hope". Johnny exclaimed quietly, as Erica and Christina. began unifying everyone.johnny stood up with Jacob and Alister and they busted Jacob up to the window so that he could open it. We all spoke about it and decided that Lucy Jacobean and Alistor should go and get help, we helped them climb out the window and like that we were down three friends at least for the foreseeable future. And we all had hope , after all of those months of felling numb i had a tinie speckle of hope that all this pain , the torture, the fear would be over.

The next day the men came to check on us as they did every morning.when they came in they saw that we were all untied and that three kids were missing they went completely ballistic, two of the men ran upstairs and brought back 6 guns one for each of the men. They each pointed their guns at us, and we all had fear glistening in our eyes and we all looked at each other terrified thinking that they were actually going to kill us all. I nearly collapsed but thankfully JHony held me up and off of my broken leg. While Erica, Riley and Cody protected the little ones and Christina stood at the other side of me helping Johny support me. The men began to pull the triggers on the guns when the door was broken down. One of the men pulled the trigger and it went right into my uninjured leg. I let out a cry of pain and about 20 police officers ran inside, everyone of the men were grabbed by two officers each. Their guns were removed and they were handcuffed and taken out of the building. I began to hear loads of sirens, and we could see the flashing lights. I fell to the floor weak from the blood loss and the pain. Johnny knelled down besides me and pulled me onto my lap cradling me. I felt like i knew these arms, but my big brother was probably well gone with a new name and i know that i will never find him.i was scare of both my past and my self an everyone else around me, but yet at the same time i was so relieved that it was all over that i could go back to riverside with Erica and Christina and we would see Logan again. A male police officer knelled in front of me and Johnny and he said " your safe now kiddo and all your friends are safe at the hospital waiting on us and they are all OK". He told me softly as the other officers made sure that the others were OK and began escorting them out to police cars and ambulances. I wasn't afraid to admit it. I may have been scared of the officers but it did feel really nice to have an adult speak to me softly and respectively. " I'm officer Gibbs ,and I know that you are very badly injured. Is it OK if I carry you out to the ambulance because your brother here may be strong but the last few months have taken a town on all of you". Gibbs asked me softly, I turned around to Johnny and he nodded at me reassuringly. "OK" I replied to Mr Gibbs , the first word I had spoken all day. Gibbs lifted me up with ease and cradled my two his chest protectively, he carried me out to an ambulance as an older-ish lady led Johnny out to a police car. I was getting placed in the ambulance as they were leading Johnny to a car when I finally spoke. " wait johnny don't leave me please" i cried getting scared.the lady officer tried to put johnny in the car but he broke free and ran to me. " it's OK firefly you're safe i'm here firefly i'm not going anywhere". He told me ,stroking my cheek and holding my hand. " bubbles is that you''. was all i got out before the darkness consumed me and i went back to a time i hoped i had forgotten, a time where i had a big brother to protect me we always used nicknames, i was his firefly, and he was my bubbles and buba. When our parents were bad he would take us into the sliding door closet and it would be our special place, our place with our own kingdom where all of our subjects are our friends. I missed those safe times in the closet then we were split , I went to family Johnny went straight into the system. I was stuck in my memories for what felt like a life time, i wanted out, but at the same time i wanted to stay with my Noha. Please don't leave me i kept muttering as i flew closer to the light. I though for a second that i was dead but i could here the muffles voices of my friends talking around me. The strongest being Johnny who was obviously right next to me. I could now fell his hand in mine, he was stroking the top of my hand with his thumb.
