I did die that day. how else would I of become an angel, I had been an angel my whole life but it activated when I died. I always wonder who I was before I was turned to an angel. here is how I died the second time. I crept down the steps in the midst of night and heard my parents talking. that's how it started. "Jacob our daughter saw a dead body. why are we here?" my mother asked. "nick's kid is out there" my dad said "I didn't want our children to end up like that""your lying. you cant lie to me" my mom said. "it has to do with work micheal" my dad said seemingly annoyed. "do you really care about your job more then our childrens safety?" my mother said. "of course I d-" slap. I still don't know whether he meant to say do or don't or do. Maggie walked down next to me "mommy and daddy are fighting?" she asked. I nodded my head, I held my sisters hand as we listened. soon my mom came to the staircase she looked at us and forced a smile "come on time for bed" she said ushering us upstairs.
we listened and I walked into my room and Maggie separated into hers. I laid on the blow up matress and pulled the covers. my mom gave me a kiss on my forhead and walked to my sisters room. a few minutes later I heard the small pitter patter of feat. a knock landed on my door. Maggie opened the door and closed it "sissy im scared" she said. I moved over on the blow up mattress while Maggie slipped in "why where mommy and daddy fighting" she asked me. "I don't know" I said and hugged my little sister.
lightning flashed through the window as me and Maggie huddled together. I fell asleep quickly. I yawned the next morning siting up, Maggie was already up. I slid off of the bed and headed for the door, petting my bed head. "mommy, daddy..." I trailed off with another yawn, I stepped down the steps and into the living room. it was pitch black, I stepped in something warm and wet. I looked down at my night gown, it was white flowers where stitched into it. "mommy..." I asked I took a step and tripped falling into the red liquid.
I screamed in horror. my mom was on top of my sister. "mommy" I whimpered and started shaking her "why wont you wake up!" I said "mommy its my birthday why wont you wake up" I let out a loud scream. as I fell in my families blood. tears flowed freely "oh hello there" he was masked, chains hang from around his neck. "I thought I already killed you" he hovered over me. I sobbed looking at the man as he took out a knife. I started to try and drag myself away. I grabbed the piano and pulled myself up on shaky legs. "ah. well"
the door was right behind me, I started running, each step made my legs feel like they weighed more. I pushed open the door and started screaming at the top of my lungs. the boy who sat there turned. "gotcha" the man said. I tripped down the stairs and layed there "zoe!" I heard the boy say, he knows my name? "what the hell" I looke dup a women wa standing next to Michel. "don't move!" she screamed and pointed a gun at the man above me. h slammed his hand on my stomach and I screamed as I felt something urn into my skin.
2 gun shots went off and the man fell. I curled into myself "Michel what happened?" she asked, "I don't know, she just ran out of her house" he said. "mommy" I whimpered, "zoe right, hi my name is Claire hanes. can you tell me what happened honey?" she asked. "mommy..." I whispered. "where is your mommy?" she asked. "uh Claire..." I heard the boy say "the whole family is dead inside" Claire looked down at me. "stay here honey" she said "mike stay with her call backup" I looked at the boy. he nodded and caught the phone Claire had tossed. he dialed something and pressed the phone to his ear.
"yeah Lucifer its me" pause "remember that family that just moved in, well commander was right he's connected to cyclone" the cyclone was a group who where like terrorists but not really. they wanted to kill anyone who wasn't completely human. "no I don't think she knows" he looked down on me. "just put lewis on the phone" he said and cleared his throat slightly. "hello lewis, send backup." Michel said in a commanding tone. then he hung up and fell down onto the stair next to me. I wanted to say something but each time I tried to talk I'd start crying.
"thanks for the umbrella by the way" he said under his breath "im going to put you on a sedative since it will help you relax" Michel explained. a sedative? all of a sudden I felt a sharp pinch on my arm. "sorry" then my eyes blurred shut.
