I pick the gun up and aim at the front tires. I watch and play a lot shooting movies and games. Like in the movies the car flips. We are on a large corner so while we turn i shoot a tire and the next car falls off the cliff. In the last car a man fired at us hitting the back tire. "Shit." Teri whispers. "One more." And I shoot the wheel flipping the car. The guy with gun climbs out with a different and larger gun, i study the gun to realize what it is. A rocket launcher. "GET OUT OF THE CAR! OR BE BLOWN TO BITS!"I scream jumping out, Teri does the same and we both watch the car explode. The pain in my shoulder gets worse and i clutch my shoulder. "Let me look at that." Terison looks at my wound. "It doesnt look good." He picks me up and starts running. After running for 30 minutes we find a local gas station, Teri places me on the ground outside as he ran in to get the man behind the counter to call the ambulance and backup police. The man chasing us reaches the station and starts walking up to me. He ends up sprinting, lifted me by my hair, points a gun at my head and threats to kill me. "Jack ass." I whisper elbowing the guy in the gut then pushing him away. Finally the police get here and cuff him. "Teri, i feel a bit dizzy." I say drowsily swaying side to side as i try to walk to him. "You are losing too much blood, there they are. Hold on, the ambulance is here. Darise, Dari-" blackness overtakes me...

"Is she okay?" "What happened to her?" "What did you do to her?" Why did you let this happen?" "Shes just a frickin child! How could you?" These are questions i heard which helped me wake up. The room i am in is completely white, and 7 people are in the room. Agent Terison, Esther and the band. "G-guys." I whisper, voice extremely raspy. "Oh my god your awake baby. We are so sorry." Mitch hugs me lightly. "Im sorry Kirstie, the man took that phone and it cost so much." I apologise, kirstie laughs before saying, "don't worry about a silly phone. I will get you a new one." "Thankyou.". I try to sit up but sqeal in pain. "Sweetie be careful do you know what you have done?" "Yeah I almost got raped, I got sold at an auction, I shot multiple men killing all that i shot, i got shot, i saw an agents blood splat across a car window, i shot cars, i jumped out of a car before it explodes, i had a gun to my head and i passed out of blood loss. Is there anything i haven't done!" I yell the last part angrily as everyone stares in amazement. "Darise Spear-" "Its not spear. Its?" I interupt making the band smile. "Grassi-Hoying." "Its Darice Grassi Hoying."The doctor continues,"Darise Grassi-Hoying, from the police department they are rewarding you with a medal of honour and a medal of courage." Say what! Everyone in the room applauds as I still process whats happening. Im with family. Why does it feel off? I don't know just shrug it away. "Also you will be able to go home either in 2 days but be in a wheel chair or leave in a week and be in crutches." "I don't mind being in a wheel chair, as long as there aren't stairs anywhere." I reply making everyone giggle or chuckle but Kevin. Who laughs his head off and being Kevin, his laugh and smile is contagious so everyone ends up laughing their heads off but me because me chest is hurting. "What damage did i do to myself, i know bruises, being shot, graze marks but are there others?" I question seriously. "Yeah, broken rib cage, deep cut on leg, broken fingers, blood transplant and thats it." Avi replies calmly.
"Ok." Is all i manage to reply with. I love pentatonix, they are an amazing family to have.
