I shot up from my bed the second I heard a scream.
I silently opened the door and exited the room and closed the door behind me.
As I slowly made my way downstairs I heard a faint gurgling noise.
I crept throughout the living room into the kitchen.
Lying on the kitchen counter, her clothes drenched in blood and mascara stains under her eyes was my mom, and standing right beside her was my step dad with a gun in his hand.
I quickly scanned the room and spotted an empty bottle of vodka.
He was drunk.
I turned around and bolted up the stairs, as I made my way through the hallway I saw that my brothers door was wide open.
I went into his room and flicked on the light, lying motionless on the bed, his eyes wide open was my twin brother.
As I made my way closer to him I observed his wounds.
He was shot. I leaned in closer and lifted up his shirt to see that he had a large bullet wound in his shoulder.
I gasp as I ran my finger over the wound as I examined it.
As I stood there crying onto my brothers already blood drenched shirt I heard a fairly quiet heartbeat.
I let out a breathe I didn't know I was even holding.
Quickly, I grabbed my brother by the wrist and draped his arm around me.
Once I had it situated so I could carry his weight, I quickly made my way to my room and grabbed my phone and my wallet.
We definitely couldn't stay there.
Once I had everything I needed I made my way downstairs.
When I was on the last step I heard a rustle to my left so I whipped my head around to be face to face with my drunk step father.
"Where do you think your going?" He asked.
I didn't reply.
"Did you not hear me I asked where you were going."
I still stood there motionless not saying a word.
"Oh I see how it's going to be," he said as he took a step towards me.
I attempted to run but he grabbed me by the hair as my brother tumbled to the floor "Let me go!" I screamed.
He grabbed his gun from his holster and held it to my head, before he could shoot I whipped my head back head-butting him causing him to drop the weapon. Soon after I scurried out of his reach and grabbed the gun.
"You wouldn't shoot your own step father would you?" He asked as I pointed the gun at his head.
"You don't know what you've done," with that I squeezed the trigger, when the bullet hit my step father it went straight through his leg.
I grabbed my brother off the floor and ran out of the house as fast as I could, by the time I was close to my neighbors house I was already out of breath.
The closer I got to my neighbors the more the tears stung my eyes.
Once I was at their front door I stood there trying to catch my breath for a few seconds before I knocked.
After the forth knock the door opened.
"Kira, what are you- oh my god!" Mrs. Harrison said as a shocked expression covered her face.
She reached out her arms and I handed her my unconscious brother. I hope Drew will be alright.
Once I had all his weight off my shoulders I winced at the pain from the spot were my dad grabbed my hair.
"Come in Kira," Mrs. Harrison said motioning me to step through the door.
I stepped inside and as I walked behind her up the stairs my vision faltered, everything went black.
I could no longer support my body so I went tumbling back.
I kept rolling downward until I heard a cracking noise.
