Okay, this is formatted weird since I wrote it on my iPad, sorry :(

As the guys voice screamed at me, my head pounded, and the room began to sway. Probably because of loss of blood. I was so tired, and for the first time in weeks, I had lost my will. My will to keep on fighting these people. My will to keep my little brother and my friends safe.   Why, why did this happen to me? My life was perfect. I had a wonderful family and a nice girlfriend. Straight A's. I'm only 12 myself, but I mean, we're only kids. Here I am fighting off a 14 or 15 year old guy while I'm on top his girlfriend. This is crazy.  I step away from the girl, and mumble to Aidan, "You know what? Why are we fighting them? They did nothing bad. They should be allies. Meanwhile, I'm leaving. Taking a break from this shitty world we live in." I walked away, grabbed a Hershey's bar and went towards the back of the store. I found a nice place to rest for a while, took a tabloid magazine and pulled my iPod out of my back pocket. I shuffle through the songs until I find some Eminem songs. I listen along to him, read a bit and eat until, I'm forgetting all about what's happening outside. I quickly switch the song on my brother's playlist, not feeling like listening to spongebob sing about bubbles. The lyrics of Arise by Flyleaf pound in my head.

"Tell the swine

  We will make it out alive

  There's a note in the pages of the book

So Sleep tonight,  We'll sleep dreamlessly this time

  When we awake we'll know that everything's alright

And sing to me about the end of the world 

End of these hammers and needles for you

Hold on to what we all remember fighting for, 

There's some strength left in us yet

  Hold on to what we all remember dying for, 

There's some hope left in it yet

The show on your face, and your razor blades

  The twilight is bruised and there you lie

  And sing to me, about the end of the world

  End of these hammers and needles for y-" I hear footsteps coming up behind me. I instinctively clench my fists, waiting for whats coming behind me. Instead of receiving a blow on the back of my head, I feel a hand touch my earplugs and pull one out of my ear. Mya.  "Mya? What's wrong? I thought you were back there reasoning with the others..." I whispered.  "Shush, we can't talk here. Come on." She pulled me up and dragged me away from my little paradise I had created.  "What is it Mya? Why can't we tal-"  

"Shut up, Matthias!" She growled. "Follow me. NOW." I followed her, towards the back of the store, near two huge black doors. 

"What is with you, Mya?" I said through my teeth. Mya clutched my arm even harder, pulling me into the huge storeroom.

  "I'm so sorry, Mathias. I just, I just-" She started crying.  

"What is wrong Mya?" I said. "What's wrong??" 

"I have to do this, Matty, I'm so sorry, so sorry, so sorry..." Another wave of sobs racked her body. 

"What are you talking about?" I replied as she pulled something out of her back pocket.

"Mya," I said, stepping backwards. "What's wrong??"  "Sorry Matty..."

"HELP, PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME!!!" The girl screamed as I watched a hoard of strangers come closer to her. She turned, and ran towards the store, took a shopping cart and rolled it towards the strangers. About 5 of them went crashing down to the ground. Desperately, she jumped onto a shopping cart and started to scale the shale columns. A stranger some how got near enough to grab her leg. She screamed, shook her leg and climbed up even faster, towards me, since I was on the roof. Another stranger threw a piece of shopping cart someone had ripped up and left by the door. She almost fell, but kept on climbing up. When she reached the roof, I stretched out my hand, and she grabbed it and I pulled her up. "Thanks mate." She said to me, as she arranged her straight dark brown hair into a sloppy bun and extended her hand. "I'm Victoria. Nice to meet you."

She looked at me with her brown eyes as I said, "Hey, I'm Aidan, nice to meet you too madam."
