I was sitting down at the table reading an english children's book. Lenny sat in front of me, listening for any mistakes.I read very choppy like and everything distracted me. I learned how to read at age five. Now I was doing it again at twenty three years old.
"Farmer Mc-" I didn't even try reading the name.
"McElhenney." Lenny pronounced the name and I nodded. "Yeah..."
I got distracted as I saw Sadie. "Hey." I greeted.
She gave me a smile. "Good luck." Sadie walked past me with a wink.
I looked back at her. "Thanks." I watched as she walked away and heard Lenny groan. "Rosa, can we focus?"
"I am focusing." I sat up straight. "But this book makes me feel like a child." I told him and he sighed. "Well, we have to start off slow. Just try again. Please."
I sighed and continued reading. "They...where all his own."
"Right, so it's were." Lenny pronounced it differently. "So there's were, where, and we're."
I looked at him confused. "What are you talking about right now?"
"So there's were as in 'we were together'. There's..." Lenny explained, but all I could focus on was a horse riding in.
"What the hell is that?" I squinted.
Lenny gave me a disappointed look. "Rosa, you gotta focus-"
"I'm serious." I pointed over to the horse and Lenny looked over at it.
I focused on the image and saw the most horrifying thing I ever laid eyes on. Kieran was riding in on a horse, only he was decapitated, holding his own head. His eyes were gauged out.
I felt myself become sick.
I heard Mary Beth yell a horrifying scream. "It's Kieran!"
There was shooting. Lenny and I immediately ran to cover.
"Oh my god." I breathed out and Lenny looked over at me with shock and concern. "That was Kieran..."
I took out my handgun and Lenny did the same. We took out as many O'Driscolls as we could before falling back into the house.
"Is everyone accounted for?!" Arthur yelled. I looked around the house for Sadie.
"Where's Sadie?!" I asked in a panic.
"She's not upstairs." Karen came downstairs and I sighed frustrated. "I'm gonna go find her."
"I'll come with you." Arthur said and I nodded. "Okay."
We went through one of the windows. I heard Sadie's scream and I ran quickly, Arthur covering me.
"Sadie!" I ran behind the shed.
There she was. Taking out three O'Driscolls on by herself. She stabbed one of them to death.
Arthur and I both stopped and watched in shock.
She was covered in blood. It didn't scare me, more surprised me. Sadie was driven by anger. I guess it made sense. These people took her husband from her. Why would she be angry?
"Sadie, why didn't you get inside?" I breathed out and she scoffed picking up a gun. "And miss all this?"
"Let's go." Arthur ordered and we began shooting O'Driscolls.
"We needed you in the house, Mrs Adler." Arthur said in between gunshots.
"No yall didn't!" Sadie kept shooting almost aimlessly.
