My breath heighten as I stared at the barrel of the gun. I gulped and pushed my little brother farther behind me. I could feel his small hands shaking and his heart beating rapidly on my thigh. I looked at the man holding our lives in his hands. An oily smile came along his face. He grabbed my arm and forced me to him. He brought his face really close to mine. I could smell his rancid breath. Alcohol I thought. But why carry a gun while drinking?

"Hey Missy, why don't you come home with me? I'm sure you'll be quite happy with me." He slurred and I scrunched up my face. I guess I had on my disgusted-by-your-overall-existence face on cause he gave me a scowl. He shoved me into the back dinner wall. When my body met the wall, I hit my head and felt all my bones get knocked around. Like my whole body went into a freeze-frame state. They world seemed to stop and I could only feel pain. Everything was white for a split-second but it felt a lot longer.

When I came back to reality he had Jamie in his arm. One arm around his neck while the other had the gun at his temple. This bastard had a sick smile on his face as he held my crying brother in his arms. I could feel my hands ball into fists so tight they might break the skin. I don't think I've ever been this mad right now. He has my poor brother in tears while I'm standing here like an idiot.

"Let go of my brother right now" I seethed.

"Or what? I don't know if you realize but I have the gun, the kid, and the strength. What. Can. You. Do?" He said amused but at the end he looked me dead in the eyes. He was challenging me. This sick, twisted man wants to see if I had the nerve to do anything. To try anything when he had my brothers life in the palm of his hands, like a sleeping crocodile. One wrong move and your history. And if I make a wrong move, say the wrong thing, then Jamie is out like a light. My heart ached at the thought of that but I knew it was true. The fear in his eyes are just stabbing me like knives.

"What do you want?" I said, straining my voice to make it sound like I didn't want this man to be struck down where he stood. He seemed to ponder about what he wanted. He started to tap the gun on Jamie's head. A sickly slow tap that made him flinch at each tap.

"Hmm, Tap now what, Tap do I, Tap want?" my breath seemed to go into sync with the tapping. "Maybe I Tap want Tap you." He said with the gun pointed at me. My mind was in a mess with thought but I shook my head and look at him. My brother is in the arm of this deranged man and I'm thinking for myself. What kind of sister am I!? Snap out of it Ayana and be a man! Hmm that doesn't make sense- Shut up! Right.

"Let go of my brother and I'll to what you want." He gave that oily smile that could make your skin crawl and just as he was as he was about to say something, when something jumped down right in between us.

The something rose up slowly from the ground. I realized that it was a person! The person had his back towards me so I couldn't see his face but saw that he was wearing a dark blue cape that faded into black at the end. His arms- and probably his entire body- was covered in jet black armor.

"I don't think you wanna do what he wants Miss, he's faces just screams bad intentions." the peerson said sarcastically while puting his hands up, putting emphasis on his word sceams.

Everything became quiet. I think we all-even Jamie although he was still scared- had a confused look on our face. Like for realzies here, this isn't some cliché cartoon or book where a super hero just down from the sky.

This is real life. Not a book.

The man's expression quickly changed from confused to highly amused. His sick laugh sent shivers down my spine. He actually had tears in his eyes. If the situation wasn't the way it was now, I would probably be laughing with him. Some pre-teen "superhero" -and I do use the term lightly- thinks he can save the day.

"Don't try to get a girl's hopes up kid. You and your cheap costume need to get lost. If you haven't noticed already we were kinda having a discussion about a certain child's life." The man said. A smug expression on his face. I turned my attention back to Jamie and tried to send him reassuring looks with my eyes. The poor boy is being traumatized. He looked at my and gave me a terrified look. It really hurt my heart to see him so scared.

"Look sir, I'll give you 5-no I'll be generous and give u 6 seconds to release the kid and be on your way." The "super hero" said. He seemed pleased with himself although I still couldn't see his face. The man laughed again.

"Go ahead, count." He said. A malicious smile was on his face. I can't believe he's just...doing this like it's an everyday thing! It sickens me. Super hero person sighed.

"6" he started. The man rolled his eyes.

"5"

"4"

"3" The man cocked his gun.

"2" He put his finger on the trigger. The smile still on his face.

"1"

"0" he pulled the trigger.
