My name is Leonard Jefferson, but you can call me Leo. I'm a normal teenager, well... I WAS a normal teenager until it happened, but I'll just tell you my whole story. It started when I was born my whole life my dad ignored me, he would only ever talk to give me orders. He was always working even at home, he loved his work more than his family and I was always kind of mad about that. My mother was very similar, I was supposed to care for my brother because they were too busy. All I ever heard was "Leo, where's your brother? Leo make Isaac some dinner." My brother, Isaac, was different though, he was only eight but he looked up to me like I was a hero or something. I loved my little brother, he always called me "Big Lenny".
One day on the bus ride home from school, I saw a man when we had come to a stop sign. He ran to the door screaming. "LET ME IN!!" he yelled "GET ME AWAY FROM THIS MONSTER, PLEASE HELP ME!!!" My bus driver assumed he was talking about a person who was going to kill him. She didn't know what to do, so she opened the door, just trying to help the man. He ran in, and smiled evilly as the doors shut, "YOU IDIOTS!" he yelled "Now, you are all being kidnapped for ransom. I'm sure I'll get a nice price from you." He then pulled a gun out of the back of his jeans, and aimed it right at the driver's head.
He made everyone give him their phones. I hid mine and told him I didn't have one. As you can guess that didn't work, he pointed the gun at me and grabbed my book bag, "What do you think I am stupid? I know everyone has a phone, kid." He searched and found my phone in the bottom of my bag. "Kid you are smart, but not smart enough. I like you, you're coming with me," he said grabbing my arm. "You will be just like me, a criminal, I have been looking for someone to continue my work for when I die. And that is going to be you." he said followed by a villainous laugh "No," I said, "I won't be your stupid apprentice because you will be dead!" I then grabbed at the gun, missed and he pointed it at me. "Raise your hands... I gave you a choice, and you chose."
I raised my hands, and looked him in the eyes, "Well, I guess you got me." I said starting to grin. I couldn't believe it but I was enjoying this. Now that the gun was in my face I could easily tell it was 500 magnum, pretty powerful gun. He looked scared, and I knew he had the advantage but I wasn't scared. I reached my arms a little closer, still saying I was surrendering. Then my arms got close enough to touch him and in one quick motion I swiped my right hand down to grab the gun. My left hand catching him in the face, his gun was being held pointed at the ground. He fired it, it just went through the floor of the bus, and I pulled the gun out of his hand after a lot of struggling. You should have seen his face, pure terror, I held the gun up to him. There I was with the gun pointed at the middle of his chest.
He pleaded, "No, please, I was never going to hurt anyone! PLEASE!!!" I looked at him, smiled and shouted "LIES!" I pulled the trigger, he flew into the window and his limp, lifeless body slowly slid to the ground leaving a streak of blood on the window. I turned and looked at the bus driver, "Call the police, they need to take this guy out of here." I said satisfied with my work. The bus driver and all the students were looking at me with intense fear. I dropped the gun and sat down in my seat, covered in blood, the driver walked up to me. "WHAT DID YOU DO?!" I looked at her, I was upset, and how could she not appreciate what I did? "I did what I had to, and he would have killed you all if I didn't do it." I said anger rising.
I picked the gun back up and walked up to the front. I said, "YOU ALL SHOULD BE THANKING ME RIGHT NOW, BUT SINCE YOU ARE ALL TOO SCARED I'LL JUST LEAVE!!!" I was yelling, I was mad. I glared at everyone and walked off the bus, leaving my book bag, I was too mad to be lugging around 20 lbs. on my back. I walked and walked, eventually I came up to some woods, I looked in and saw nothing, I walked in no sign that anyone had ever been in here, no path, litter, nothing. I walked and walked and couldn't find any trace of living animals or humans anywhere. No squirrels, no deer, nothing. This was odd I hadn't even seen any bugs like bees, or flies, not even a single mosquito.
