With blood on my hands and my clothes drenched, with chills down my body, the thrilling excitement of accomplishing my dream has finally ended.

"Carder, Carder can you hear me?" said a familiar voice in the distance.

As I look down of the stained wood floors with blood trickling down my elbow I call back.

"I did it. The pain has finally stopped, I don't feel it anymore"

"Feel what anymore?" cried the voice again.

As I turn my head in the direction I yell,

"Dunkin" as a call of relief runs threw my body as she crawls into my arms.

"I missed you, I thought I would never see you again" as I look at her with tears seeping down her face.

I look up as I see my life flash before my eyes.

"Run." I call as I stand up with little strength I have left as I race to the door, dropping the knife I used to murder the people I thought were my parents.

My sticky hands clinging to the door as I rip it open with all the strength I have left as I fall to the floor holding my chest with blood trailing out.

"It's over." I call as I tell my sister to leave while she still can.
