The enemy agents closed in, primed to kill. Little did they know who they were messing with. Erica lunged at the first soldier who had no time to react before he was unconscious. Catherine turned to me and said "Benjamin dear I need you to go into the backyard and go into the doghouse" Now to any regular person Catherine might have sounded like she needed mental help but I knew better. I ran out of the destroyed building an enemy agent attempted to pursue me but was quickly taken down by Catherine. I ran out into the backyard and found myself looking at a yellow doghouse the size of a filing cabinet. The name on top of it read "Bingo" I smiled knowing the inside joke. I stuck my hand inside the dog house until I felt a switch. "Bingo" I flicked it and the ground below me opened and swallowed me up.

Erica's POV

"Benjamin dear I need you to go into the backyard and go into the doghouse" I heard my mom explain to Ben. Good, at least he'll be safe there. As Ben ran, the enemy agent attempted to pursue him but was stopped by mom who slid under him and took out his feet making him fall onto the ground where she quickly flipped him on her back and slammed him down onto the wood floor, knocking him out. The enemy agents suddenly stopped and all put their fingers to their ears. They must have earpieces on. They looked at us and opened fire. I raced under the destroyed dining table while my mom hid behind the couch. 

Now us being Hales, designed our furniture specially to be bulletproof in case of a situation like this occurred. I quickly realized why they hadn't used their guns earlier, because they wanted us alive but whoever they were working for must have had a change in heart.  The firing stopped and I looked at mom to ask for our next move. She gave me a mix of hand signals which meant for me to rush right and her to rush left. She counted down on her fingers 5,4,3,2,1 at 1 I lunged right of her she leapt to the left but then a massive fist caught her by the throat. I looked and saw Dane Brimmage in full combat gear lifting her off the ground. 

I ran over to help when I heard a loud bang and then there was a sharp pain in my right foot I looked and saw a hole through my leg I didn't have time to worry about bullet wounds right now. "Put your hands up or she gets it," Dane said in a menacing tone. My mother's eye's filled with tears. I did as he said and put my hands up. "Actually, I think you can kill her now Dane." A voice said. I turned and saw my enemy and former crush Joshua Hallal. "NO!" I screamed, tears filling my eyes. Joshua smiled and pulled a gun from his pocket. "I've wanted to do this for a long time." He said. "NO! Please, I'll do anything" I pleaded. He laughed. "One of you will die tonight. Now, who will it be Erica? You or your Mom?" "Me." I said immediately. He pondered this for a second. "Erica, dear it's alright everything going to be ok-" At that moment a shot rang out and my mother's once beautiful face had a hole in it. "NO!!!!!!" I screamed, sadness overwhelming me. I was filled with anger as I lunged out at Joshua who sidestepped me and I went flying into the staircase. He laughed and said "Tisk tisk Erica you should know not to let emotions control your actions" I was losing blood fast and was in considerable pain but I had one thing driving me one objective. To tear Joshua into a million pieces...
