Caged Bird (Niam AU)

Chapter One: Last Goodbye

A/N: I dedicated this to Infiniam because her story Only The Night is freaking awesome.

Niall's POV

I could only observe as my mother helped my stepfather pack in such a hurry they only looked like blurs when they passed by. I might only be thirteen but I knew exactly what was going on. A few weeks ago my mother told me that an evil man named Hitler wanted all the people of the Jewish race dead and the only people he accepted into his country we're Aryan.(A/N: In this story Niall is a natural blonde.)

She told me that there would be no problems with my stepfather and his other family, which we got along with very well, because we lives in Poland and Hitler couldn't invade without starting a war with The Allies. Naturally I believed her, but it seemed that Hitler didn't care about going to war because he invaded Poland a week ago.

My stepfather had all his things packed and ready to go so we headed outside to our car. It would just be a short ride to the small plane he had on the outskirts of town. He had already transferred all his other relatives and was finally ready to leave himself.

As we reached the plane we noticed we were being followed by a German automobile. So naturally we ran out of the car and sprinted toward the plane. I didn't know why, but I think my mother and I would much rather die and save my stepfather's life than save ourselves and let him die and leave his three other kids orphans.

As we neared the plane we could here the distinct sound of combat boots and guns being ruffled around. We finally reached the plane and my stepfather wasted no time in jumping on. He obviously knew that my mother and I wouldn't leave and he had other children to care for so he started the plane as fast as he could and started to zip down the dirt runway and float of the ground all while tears formed in his grief stricken eyes.

All I could do was watch as he flew higher and higher. I turned and noticed the men didn't stop running towards us and one of them with deep brown eyes and a nicer uniform held the gun pointing it at the planes engine. I had to do something.

"NO!!!!" I heard myself scream and run towards him, without even second guessing it.

He seemed startled, but nevertheless kept his position.

I basically threw myself at him and diverted the guns direction right when he shot the bullet.

The shot barley missed the plane and I could not have been any more relieved.

Suddenly I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist and lift me off the ground. I flailed and squirmed as much as I could but to no avail.

"Bad choice sweety." He snarled at me with no hint of remorse in his voice.

The deep brown eyed soldier wouldn't let me go. He suddenly stopped and turned me to look at the horrifying scene behind me.

"No please stop!!!" I yelled at the soldiers.

I watched as the other soldiers beat my mother to death. And I couldn't do anything about it. The soldier made sure I watched until he no longer heard my mothers chocked pleas.

A/N: Really intense huh. Well get ready people because it only gets worse. Anyway please sent me feed back I want to know if I should continue this story. At least one comment or vote please.
