So This is my story, the story about how in an hour, my life turned into a living hell. It all starts with my family leaving to go to the annual family reunion that's held at PENNY'S BBQ (a local restaurant in our town) I was left home alone because I was grounded, "love you Helena!" Dad called to me from the door "love you too dad!" I called back to him. I wasn't one of those petty teenagers who 'hated' my parents, my family was the most important thing to me. My WHOLE family was there... Literally my sister, brother, grandparents, uncle, aunt, and of course my parents. My moms parents were both dead and she didn't have any siblings. I was happy with my life, it was going well at that point and I was about to move into an apartment in New York City! That wouldn't last much longer though... When I was home alone I decided I needed to at least see my grandparents and family. I made my way to the restaurant and stopped as I looked through the window wide-eyed. There was someone with a gun to my fathers head and another with a gun to my mothers. I started crying my dad saw me and mouthed 'I love you' and then boom. I couldn't let that happen to my mom so I ran into the restaurant and piledrove the man knocking him down with all the force I had everyone ran out screaming. I looked over to my mom crying as she said 'I love you' and then bang, her lifeless body dropped to the ground. Then a few other guys with guns came in and surrounded me and the rest of my family, I grabbed my 14 year old brother and somehow managed to sneak him out of there and told him to get the police. They took my grandma then my grandpa as I screamed stop at them and then All I rember Is falling into my own pool of blood still fully conscious and aware of my surroundings they then took my sister "NO PLEASE DON'T KILL HER NO I LOVE HER!" But they didn't listen. They were about to finish me off putting a gun to my head, but the sound of police sirens could be heard and they took off with a bag of cash. I crawled over to my dads corpse crying at the sight of him dead. "Daddy I love you." I whispered clutching his hand and shaking violently "I'm so sorry I-I couldn't s-stop them they were too s-strong please don't leave dad." I clutched my moms hand and held it tears flowing, I saw my sisters bloody body and it sent me over the edge and I was having a mental breakdown. The cops showed up and asked what happened. I explained everything trying not to cry again and they looked at me suprised that I had fought back at my age. "You did everything you could and more, you saved your little brother... Wait why are you holdig your stomach honey?" The lady asked me "They shot me." I said with a gravely voice from the pain. "OH MY GOD SOMEONE BRING HER TO THE HOSPITAL!" The woman shouted to the officers and they nodded. "It'll be okay sweetie." She said with a sad smile. I groaned at the wound I managed to grab my dads pocket watch and my moms locket necklace of our family, I grabbed them so I had something to remember them by... I was lifted into the ambulance and everything blurred out but I remember seeing my brother sitting next to me saying "Do this for me sis, don't leave me alone." And I from then on vowed to never leave him alone in this cruel world.
