Chapters will start out short and get longer as the story progresses so I can update sooner.

I have been trapped in target before. It was the day after my foster family adopted me and my new sister and I we were trying on bikinis for the summer, when there was an earthquake. It wasn't a very big one, I didn't even know it happened until everyone started screaming bloody murder. It really wasn't a very big deal at all at least until the target manager announced that the building was on the brink of collapsing and of course at that very moment my sister Natalia couldn't find her shirt in the piles of swimwear we brought into the dressing room. Natalia was also adopted into the family when our adopted family took a trip to mexico and saved her from being sold and most likely used for slave labor. She was 7 at the time and like me had grown up in a very poor home so our 'parents' loved to send us shopping together so we could spoil ourselves with things like clothes.

Natalia has dark pin straight hair and perfect caramel skin and until that day I thought she could look good in anything. So while we were throwing bikini bottoms everywhere everyone was either exiting the building, screaming, crying, diving under furniture or if you were a staff, coming into the dressing room instructing us how not to die. Thats when a hispanic lady ran in and took off her target shirt and gave it to Natalia and then ran out screaming about how she saves lives one person at a time. And I think we spent more time laughing about how funny she looked then we did looking for her shirt in the first place.

So Finally after like forever we ran out of the dressing room to the front doors just to find we were locked in.

You would think that the big crowd and police officers would see two teenage girls shaking the door screaming there heads off but instead they were too busy securing the building so people like us don't get hurt by doing things we were doing. In the end target was perfectly fine and nothing was wrong with it in the first place and Natalia and I got a good story out of how we got to eat a gallon of ice cream that after a while turned into us having a nerf war and then being crushed by rubble when a nerf bullet hit the wall. Thats how I knew when I woke up to darkness and a voice tell me the original version of that story I knew it was Natalia.

"Please wake up" Natalia begged me. What!? I tried to open my eyes...Why can't I wake up! I tried to move but my arms were being held down and filled with pins and needles. "Uggg" I moaned. "Shes awake"! Natalia exclaimed. "I'm awake! Oh good cause I really want a milkshake." I yelled. Wait I just said that out loud.

There was lots of yelling and beeping and whirring and screaming... my screaming.
