The movie will start out where there's was an elderly lady named Emelina, and she was telling the story

of her life to her grandchildren, where her siblings were still there with her, too.

Her siblings listened to the story with bittersweet eyes and a faint smile.

Some of their family members and friends were lost during this time. Emelina's grandchildren didn't

seem to get what their grandmother was talking about because they were too young to understand, but

the movie with Emelina read her autobiography in first/third person's POV.

Emelina starts the story with, "Once upon a time a peaceful afternoon in Vietnam, where the day has

started out like any other day. Everyone was doing what they were doing, but in a split second, there

was a sudden pause and the day had turned dark."

My little cousin, Kevin, and I were inside of the house, while my other family member is out of the

house. We heard on the radio there was an invasion from the French, and there was a bomb that land at

the corner of our house at that time. Soldiers were coming in our country from left to right. What was

once a peaceful day is now facing the dragon/storm in the eye.

I hid my little cousin at the safe corner of the house, I told him to stay there for a second while I go back

into my room and get something that is very important to me and that is all my belongings. That is from

my electronics, change of clothes for me and my little siblings, and some of my belongings.

Then I went back to the corner where Kevin was and where he was self-destructed everything that was

around him. He was letting his anxieties and nervousness get the best of him. I was just there staring at

him with a big sweat drop. We got out of there while we can. I tried to calm him down for us to hide, but

he's so clumsy, he left a trail where the soldiers can find us and track us down. Every five steps we took forward is every three steps backward for us. He leaves the track, I covered the track. *dramatic cries*

in the story, I tried to tell him to calm down, calm down, and get a hold of your anxiety because at this

point I was getting so tired and dizzy trying to go back and forth to covered the track.

Skip to the next scene I called my family and we agree to meet up at this train station. I was

sitting on the train station's bench with my cart. Things, snacks, etc. that I just buy. Then there

was kid who kept stealing from my cart.

The first time the kid stealing from my cart, I let it slide. The second time he stole from my cart,

I asked him politely to stop taking. And the third time that he steals from my cart, I went to his

guardian and ask him to stop his/ her kids from keep stealing from my cart. This time I was fed

up. The guy defends the kid by shouting at me why am I picking a fight with a kid. Then it cause

a lot of commotion and the crowd is now around us. Someone took a picture of me and post

online say I was shameless and pleaded with guilt. When I got to the train station with my

cousin, I saw my brother and his brother. They stopped me and disputed the whole situation. I

was so mad. I was fuming with anger and the smoke was coming out of my ears. My siblings try

to calm me down and I calmed down.

My siblings explained what was going on back home. They say the other family agrees to come

later and go on this specific numbered train. Before that they have some business to take care

of and we say okay. Some of the family members died during the bombing. We lost some of our

precious family members and they stay back to mourn and set up a formal funeral for them.

One of the family members that had passed away is my father and my cousin's mother. A

pensive and remorseful face from all of us. "We must go, to get a hold of ourselves until we can

get a grip of what was going on before we can think of saving anybody. We got on the train. The

environment and the I felt a little bit teary, but I kept a strong face for my siblings. My siblings

was crying because a loss of our parent. Then I couldn't hold it back anymore, I let my cry and

sob as loud as I wanted/ needed to. Later, we have reached a concentration camp, but this

camp is not to hurt or harm anyone. It's just for people who are trying to get back up on their

feet again. My siblings and I was shown to a dark room with four beds at the four corner of the

room. We were grieving for our loved one. My cousin wanted to sleep with his brother so they

can be there for each at that crucial time. I went over to my brother to ask how he is and he

says he's not okay and I agree with him on this one. The one time with didn't get along finally

reunited. We hugged each and cried on each arm. We sit and talk to each other for a specific

reason before I go back to my corner of the room. That day I cried a lot even though I was

shutting my eyes to go to sleep.

Couple months later, we got into a team with the people who want to go back to reuse any

survivors and our family that is is still there. We plan a strategized plan. My cousin decided to

come and leave his brother in someone's care. And that's the end of the first movie for this first movie
