The Dutch Boys

Chapter 5: Camp Auschwitz

The family was thrown onto a train carriage meant for carrying animals, they all knew what just happened, they were caught. They didn't know where they were going, all they knew was that it was bad. There were probably 20 other people shoved onto the train, including the 8 of them. There weren't any windows, just three cracks in a row,letting sunshine just barely flood through. There wasn't even room for anyone to stand up, Lucy had her mothers shoulder pressing against her arm, Luke had his fathers elbow in his stomach, Levi was sitting next to Liam, Levi had no room to stand his head up, so he had to rest it on Liam's shoulder, which he enjoyed, he secretly had a crush on Liam. That night to conserve heat everybody hugged, including Levi and Liam. The next morning they woke up to a horrendous smell, Levi thought back to a time when his mother had accidentally lit a fish on fire and the horrid smell it had, but Levi knew this smell was way worse. The train came to a stop, and they were all pulled out, they were ordered to go in a line of people, when they were in the line, they had 4 numbers tattooed on their arm, after that they were taken to what everyone called the barracks. That day they were ordered to stay in the barracks. They all fell asleep that night thinking what's going to happen.
