I just got off of work, a long eight hour shift on my feet listening to customers complaining left and right. 'Talk about a long, crappy day. Thank goodness it is finally over and I am off the next two days.' I think to myself as I are walking home at eleven thirty at night. As I am walking, I pass by convenient store. I pause for a moment at the door. I think to myself, 'Wine sounds really good right now. It would definitely take the stress of the day off.' I open the door of the convenient store and I hear the door chime go off as I enter the building.

The clerk is standing behind the counter as I walk inside. "Evening, Y/N."

"Hi, Jenny. How are you?"

"Good. I see you are out late tonight. Another late shift at work?"

I continue talking as I walk to the back of the store where the drinks and alcohol is. "Yes, and what a night it has been. I am so glad that I am off tomorrow and the next day." I open the door to the cooler grabbing a bottle of red Moscato, then grabbing a small pint of chocolate ice cream. I head to the front to the counter to check out. Jenny is tidily arranging the counter, her movements mechanical, betraying none of the stress that lingered underneath.

Suddenly, the tranquility shattered when a masked intruder bursts through the door, brandishing a gun with a menacing ease that chilled to the bone. Jenny's eyes widened in pure terror, her breath catching in her throat as the figure advances towards her. In that heart stopping moment all I can do is watch in terror as this horror unfolds before my eyes. 

A loud yet shaky voice erupts from the intruder yelling at Jenny, "Put all the money in the bag and hurry up!" The person sounds scared and their hands are shaking. Instinctively understanding the gravity of the situation, I attempt to try and talk to the intruder.

"Hey there..." The intruder turns the gun towards me. "Try and relax. We will give you all our money and anything else you want. Just don't do anything rash."

Intruder yells at me, "Shut up and just give me all your money as well!"

"Okay, I will. Just please don't hurt anyone." I pull my wallet out of my purse and pull all the money I have out of my wallet and place it on the counter. Jenny grabs the money and adds it to the money that she has placed in a paper bag. I step forward and grab the bag of money. As I am stepping forward towards the intruder, their finger tightens on the trigger. A shout pierces the tense air, a desperate, "No!" The sound is barely a whisper against the loud crack that follows. I move with a speed driven by adrenaline and pure resolve, lunging in front of Jenny, as human shield against the storm.

The shot rings out, echoing off the walls, a sound too loud, too final. I feel the pierce and burning pain in my chest. I collapse to the ground.

Jenny screams, "No! Y/N!" The sound of anguish and despair, Jenny rushes to my side, her hands shaking as she tries to stop the flow of blood, her pleas for help dissolving into sobs. 

The intruder, startled by the unexpected sacrifice, fled into the night, leaving behind the scene of heartbreak and devastation. Jenny cradles my head in her lap. "Oh Y/N, please don't die. Please! Why did you do that, Y/N? Why?" She pleads as my eyes close and as my last breath leaves my body. "No, please stay with me. Come on, open your eyes and fight."

Jenny keeps a hold of you even as the lights of the arriving police cars and ambulance paints the night in blues and reds. As the paramedics get to me, there is no pulse and no heartbeat. They strive and work hard for quite a while to try and revive you but, they are unsuccessful. You are pronounced dead on the scene of the crime from the gunshot wound.
