Lucy's PoV

  I was very anxious before it was 7 in the afternoon, I already wanted Denisse's party to start even though...I was just getting dressed.

  The knee-high lilac dress and black sweater were the perfect combination that described my personality: happy and cheerful, along with my long, black hair which is very straight.

  Once I was ready, my parents and I made sure to leave at an acceptable hour to get to Denisse's house on time.

  When we arrived I noticed that Sam hadn't arrived yet, but I held to the hope of her getting here soon. I entered the house and greeted my friend with one of my typical "energetic hugs". As I hung from her, Denisse smiled at me and caressed my head. After a while of talking with her, Sam finally arrived and greeted all of the people that were there. I welcome her by waving my arms around, but my mom reminded me that I shouldn't lose my composture to which I answered by slightly sticking my tongue out and running my hand by the nape of my neck in a bright manner.

  We were all talking and laughing, I was having such a wonderful time until...

  "He's the son of a friend of ours, isn't he, Miguel?" Denisse's father said out loud while looking at all of us, showing off the new guest. Since I first saw him, I knew something was wrong with him, the distrusting aura he had around him made him look suspicious.

  "May I have a private talk with you two, please?" Asked the guy, thing that only made my suspicions increase. But my friends were alredy in the case.

  'Should I follow them?' I asked myself.

  My final answer was "yes", I got outof my seat and followed them at a reasonable distance. Whenthey got out of the house I went upstairs to the second floor to a roomthat had a window where you could see the metal fence that surrounded the house. What I saw next was something I never thought I would see, not even on my nightmares...I will never errase that picture from my mind as well as the others that await. Denisse and Sam's parents were lying inert on the floor, soaking in their own blood. it seemed as if it was a horror movie, I couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing, my mind was corrupted, I couldn't think straight, I didn't know what to do...

  I heard when Sam and Denisse entered the house, but I was still in shock. What would happen if the killer went for my parents as well? With the small amount of willpower I had, I stood up and walked to where everyone else was. Probably my friends had already told the news.

  When I got there, it was a chaos, everyone was losing their composure. I pressed my teeth together until I felt like I was about to break them. I sighed and controlled my breathing in an attempt of keeping calm.

  "RUN AND HIDE!" Shouted Lucas, Sam's brother. As it was expected, Sam tried to run tohim, but Denisse andI stopped her and pulled her towars us.

  "Go upstairs and hide!" Whispered Denisse while pushing us and her siblings up the staircase. "Hide them please, I'll be there as soon as I can, I just need to get something."

  I grabbed Denisse's arm and saw her so that my eyes told "be quick", I let go of her and started making the fvor she asked us to do.

  We hurried up Denisse's siblings: Kiara and the twins: John and Charlie, but in between all of the commotion, John disappeared... Denisse arrived with a knife, but the situation went from bad to worse, John was in front of the killer. It was allso fast that I could only watch as his lifeless body fell to the ground. Denisse was left in a panicked state that didn't last long, for it was interrupted by my mother.
"Police?! Hello!" Screamed my mother in an almost null attempt of surviving, but... I knew those were going tobe her last words.
