11:55 pm. Five minutes until the Purge is released into the world for a day. Although it's within midnight, people don't care. They'll go out and butcher. Nut jobs.

I unlock the door and head outside meanwhile carrying a crow bar for safety. When I hear the sirens, someone might come at me to kill me, I am not going to give them the chance. I'll butcher them. All crimes are legal for twenty four hours. I went outside also to hear the announcements from the government.

"Attention all citizens of the United States." The announcements on the speaker came on right across the abandon street. "Within five minutes, a siren will say the Purge has begun. Remember all crimes are legal and the most criminals will be released from prison over the next twenty four hours. All protection will be closed down within the twenty-four hour period. The day after is when we send out help. Take defense or offense and survive the most dangerous event of the years. The siren will scream out in four minutes. Thank you, have a nice day."

"Why would they say something so stupid at the end?" I asked in anger. I head back in and lock the door. Fear shook my whole body. I am on my own within the Purge, do if I die, I'll be demise. "This can't be worst." I said.

I went around the house to check if all doors and windows are lock. The blinds will cover up what being that's hiding inside which is me. "I can't sleep over the next twenty-four hours plus not even eating. Keep the crow bar in sight and keep on surviving. It couldn't get any worst than this." I told myself. I walked towards the door that I never enter before. I opened it showing the rusty basement stairs. There was no windows around. "This might be a safe area if the Purge becomes too bad which I know it is going to be. I'm already scared out of my mind." I shut the door. I breathe to calm myself. "Just survive, Audy," I told myself.

"10. 9. 8. 7. 6. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1" The speakers said. Then a tornado siren was heard. "Oh shit." I said to myself. "The Purge has begun."

12:27am: I can hear the echos of the screams not too far from me. I walk across the hallway and went into one of the bedrooms and hide. My brain is in a tug of war right now. One side says go out and slice some victims and the other side is to stay put and survive.

I was still gasping. Then I heard a loud shriek in the echo. Next, a loud boom. "Damn, they blew up the nitrogen stations, to fuel the cars." I said crying. "What's with the United States doing stuff like this? They've should've just roll of it instead of killing it's own people by the Purge. The population can lower the countries damn debt for sure for the high taxes." I groaned.

1:00 am: I went out from under the rusty cold bed. "I've should've just play dead," I replied to my action. I walk over to the window and open the blinds. I saw nobody coming out the woods. I still breathe. My heart was at my throat. I shut the blinds quickly as possible. I sneak quietly out of the bedroom and head to the front door. I went passed it and head to the window next to it. I opened the blinds. I look to the left. Nothing. I look to the right. I can see a small glow from the fire at the Nitrogen Station, a location where we fuel our cars to run. I look forward. I see people wearing orange. I slam the blinds together so fast. I was scared out of my mind. "Oh my, they released the murderers from prison. Oh great." I began to cry. "They probably saw me, I'm screwed." I sit down near the close window. I peaked through the edge of the blinds. They were getting closer. Soon, running and holloring. Next one of them threw a flaming motocutive into the air. I can see the small glow of the flames. It hit one the abandon homes in front of me. It immediately went on fire. Next, all of them began to throw motocutive bottles across the abandon street. "Please don't hit the house." I plead silently. The flaming bottles landed around me and the closest ones are in the front of the yard. "Oh my gosh!" I've backed away from the winds gasping. "I am not going to basement yet, just hide under one of the beds." I talk to myself. I ran as quietly as I can towards the closet bedrooms that I can run to. I went under the bed. This is just an hour of the Purge and I know there's more to come.


2:00 am: I didn't move one inch under the bed. The crazy murderers were all around me. I hold back my tears of fear. Clash! I hear a glass shattered. Then soon I hear glass breaking all around me. "Shoot!" I cried and went out from under the bed. I grabbed the crow bar. I ran as fast and silently as I can. I opened the basement door and shut it the locked it. I head down stairs. I sit in the farthest corner I can get to. I began to shake and cry. "They must've found me." I shivered. I hold my breath. Then I heard the front slam opened. "Check the God damn place and make sure you kill someone that's ain't one of us!" I hear a prison man yell upstairs. They broke into the house. Damn it.

Pound! Someone is trying smash down the basement door. I clutch the crow bar tight. "Oh my gosh!" A tear flows down my cheek. "If they break through, I'll dig this lead metal bar into their necks." I silently hiss. The Purge has already gotten worst. Mastermind criminals were released from prison. Riots were already broken out in the city. Probably my parents are out trying to find me. What next? "No one here!" A man upstairs declare. "Plus there's no shit in here."

"No, I think I heard footsteps running before we entered this ragged house. If it's boy, he won't fight with us, kill him. "If it's a girl, take her or set her on fire. If the woman is hot, keep her." Another man declares. "Isiah, break down the basement door!" Next, I hear the pounding again on the door. I stood up and get in the fighting position. I know they'll break down the basement door this time. I saw piece of the wooden door fall down the stair. Next, I heard the door slam opened. Two prisoners came down. They looked at me. One was young and looked bad arse. The other one looked like muscle and young. "Drop the weapon or we will burn you!" The other bad arse one hissed. I was shaking with fear. I didn't know what to do. Kill them, or surrender to them, or turn into the crisp? I stood there unwisely. Next, nature decide. I collapsed to the darkness. I
