(P.S it's all a dream) As I walk through the surprising desert, it amazes me. I have never seen a camel in real life. It is shocking to see a gray camel because they are usually tan. But the guy who is walking with the camel says "it's very rare to find a gray camel" and that "there are many unusual things in this desert." So I decided to explore it and that's when I saw a house.
I thought to myself, "Should there be a house in the middle of the desert?"
But that didn't stop me from looking into the house because I can't find a house where I live, so why not check it out. I walked up to the house to see what it looked like. It had rats, maggots, spiders, and other insects. But I decided to call the number on the For Sale sign because I know that if I decide to live there, I can clean up the house and make it much better.
When the realtor called me about buying the house, he sounded like someone who is holding people hostage. I didn't want to stay on the phone but the only reason I did is because I want this house.
I heard screaming and hollering in the background and it made me heartbroken.
That's when I heard a beep because another call was coming through on the other line. It was my mom telling me that someone is holding my 5 year old sister Carrie and 12 year old brother Thomas hostage in a house in the woods. I knew all along that something wasn't right but I didn't know what to do.
After I got off the phone with my mom the kidnapper called and gave me orders to follow if I want to save my brother and sister. I told the kidnapper that it's not fair that he gets to hold my family hostage because he doesn't have a family of his own.
Harry (the kidnapper) said that the only reason he took my family is because he saw that I was looking into the house that he wanted and he wants a family of his own because nobody loves him. I said to him that it's not true that nobody doesn't love him it's just that he hasn't found the right person yet. He then told me that I was right but still had to follow his orders. I said that's bullshit because how are you going to betray somebody who is trying to help you out.
He called my phone to give me my first order. (It was a very cruel punishment but I accepted the order because I know that Carrie and Thomas need my help.) So the order that he gave me was to go fight these 3 boys for bullying his older sister but the key thing hat he said I had to do was kill them.
I thought to myself "How could I ever do some stupid shit like this that can land me in jail." So I called him back and told them that I would never do anything like this to hurt somebody for someone else. I said "I'm sorry but I can't accept this order."
I could understand if I had to blackmail somebody for money or something, but I could never be a bully to someone that I don't know because bullying just isn't right.
Harry tells me that if I don't do this for him that he would torture Carrie and Thomas. I said "if you torture them you will regret everything." As we argue back and forth on the phone I heard Carrie scream. I started to get angry because I didn't know what he had done to her.
Thomas came running to the phone and he tells me that Harry kicked him out of the room. Thomas said he stayed near the room and tried to save Carrie because he heard gunshots not once, not twice, but three times. I asked him if Carrie was ok, and he told me that he is crying because she didn't make it.
I'm in my mind like what the fuck just happened to my little sister. This shit isn't fair because Carrie is only 5 years old. What could she have possibly done to hurt him?
Harry snatches the phone from Thomas and said "Now you see what happens when you don't follow my orders." I told him that it's not my fault that I got to the house before you.
"That's bullshit that you would kill a 5 year girl because you didn't get the house that you wanted."
So Harry told Thomas that he will be right back he is only going to the store, but he didn't know that he didn't hang up the phone. So when I heard the door close, I screamed Thomas' name. Thomas responded and said he knows how to get home.
It's now been 1 hour since I talked to Thomas. I then heard a knock on the door, and it was Thomas.
As I open the door tears starts to come out my eyes because I am so happy to see Thomas safe and happy.
I didn't want to pressure Thomas into talking to me about what happened so I told him that he could talk to me whenever he is ready to talk about it. Thomas then said "I like that idea but I want to tell you now so that I don't have to have these feelings on my chest anymore."
I said "Ok if that's what you want to do it's fine with me." I told him never mind about it because I don't want to hear about it because it's going to make sad if I have to hear this.
That night we went to bed and when I woke up I saw Carrie that's when I realized it was all a dream. I'm glad that it was a dream because I would have had to adjust to living life without her.
I couldn't stop hugging Carrie because I was happy to see her alive and healthy.
