Anna finally closed the book and turned off the flashlight. It was about 3 a.m and she still wasn't asleep. If mama knew, she would be mad. But Anna couldn't help herself but be curious how will the story end. Will the Prince Charming find Cinderella and marry her, or will she stay with her stepmother forever?
Little Anna looked at her room, which was clearly visible from the full moons light shining through her window. She felt tired now, it was way past her bedtime and everyone in the house was asleep. Oh how she wished, that she wasn't the one who read these fairy tales, because she was still very bad reading. But Anna couldn't help it, since mama was always busy with her work, driving around the country to get the best stories, to write the best articles and be known for the great journalist that she is. And papa was always at the hospital, saving lives, just like a superhero, but with no superpowers. Little Anna was proud to be their daughter.
But the the nice silence of the night was interrupted by a vicious scream and then a loud noise, which sounded like a shot. Terrified, Anna quickly got out of bed and ran to her parents room. But something wasn't right and Anna could feel it. Her parents room door was slightly open so she peeked through it and felt how her little heart stopped for a second. Mama was lying on the ground in a black puddle, her eyes wide opened, a glimpse of terror still left in her eyes.
"Mama, what's wrong?" Anna whispered and opened the door more widely. The room was dark and she could barely see anything, except the tall figure that looked like her papa.
"Papa?" She whispered and the person turned around. Even though she couldn't see anything else, Anna clearly saw those two cold, blood thirsty eyes that looked at her. This person wasn't papa, even though he had his body. No. Papa used to look at her with tired, but full of love eyes and he never dared to hurt mama. But this person seemed to be so happy and proud of what he's done, that it terrified Anna so much, she fell down. Suddenly, he turned around and Anna heard another shot, that made her jump and cover her ears. The dark figure collapsed on the ground and Anna was once again surrounded by sweet silence of night. Only now it wasn't so sweet seeing as how she sat there, next to her dead mama and papa, wishing it was all just a dream. It wasn't.
