Brurnt

Chapter One: Murdered

I remember the night like it was yesterday. Mothers scream, fathers yells, and baby Katie's last cry. That night of 1998 was the worst I never will forget it. I was the lucky one. I was the one who got burnt...

My parents Ashley Parts and Lucas Parts were killed when I was only 7. I tried to save them but I was too late fathers words were, remember the training and don't forget to protect Katie, Annie, and Carson. I failed to protect Katie because she couldn't run as fast as us. Her scream haunts me, I wish I could've saved her. Annie, who was 6 at that time was asleep when the murders came. She got lucky woke up before they got her and got Carson and met me out by the pool. Carson who was 5 at that time ha no memory of what happened he found a way to forget, it's good because he worries too much.

I am Selena Parts now I am 16, Annie is 15, and Carson 14. We are running from the same people who murdered our parents, some how we always get out of their sneaky little traps.

"Annie, I can't sleep." Carson said to Annie.

"Carson your 14 now, go sleep with Selena!" Annie said frustrated.

"Fine!" Carson said back.

"Selena, Annie won't let me sleep with her." He said to me shy-like.

"What exactly are you asking Carson." I said.

"Ha-ha, very funny move over, you know what I am asking!" He said smiling.

"I know, no snoring or you going back to your tent!" I said in a serious tone.

"Okay, okay!" He said.

"JUST GO TO BED YOU TWO!" Annie screamed from her tent.

"Okay!" Carson and I said at the same time.

We must of slept in because we could smell Annie cooking breakfast again.

"Oh, look at the only 2 people who can sleep in when we have to keep moving!" Annie said laughing.

"Shut up Annie!" I said cranky.

Annie rolled her eyes and I laughed.

"Where's Carson?" Annie asked me when we were eating.

"Sleeping probably." I said.

"No!" She said.

"What are you talking about!" I asked.

"Never mind, I'll go wake him up." She said.

I nodded my head and kept eating until I heard a scream, Annie's worried scream. I ran to the tent only to find her crying and handing me a note.

"Read it, read it OUT LOUD!" She screamed at me.

"Okay, Dear Annie and Selena, you may remember what we did when you were kids. Murder. We took your brother he's pretty easy to convince. Remember Selena, your burnt. Oh poor dear Annie, your sister lost her favorite sister, she's burnt. We took your favorite too. Carson isn't with you anymore he's with your parents." I said in tears by the first word.

"They killed him didn't they!" She screamed.

"I don't know!" I screamed back.

It was silent for a while maybe 20 minutes.

"What do they mean by they took my favorite?" She asked me.

"Remember how I favorited Katie, then they killed her?" I asked.

"Yeah." She said.

"Well that means I got burnt." I said.

"What do you mean by, burnt?" She asked.

"It means I can't forget, I fear more, and I lost my favorite, so I'm burnt." I said.

"Oh." She said.
