Lillian

Chapter 21

We had made it to Philadelphia just in time. It was 5 o'clock in the afternoon and I was ready to fight them. I was very nervous, because facing my mother was going to be really hard. She took karate as a child and had 3 brothers, Steve, Scott, and Sam. She also has a sister named Samantha, but she has been missing for years and Sarah of course is my favorite of all of them and she is 

My mother was really angry at something, but I don't know what. Why would she be so angry at our family and my friends? She has been very angry lately and I don't know why. Maybe she has just been breaking down, because of dad. Dad has been overseas for a long time and she has been growing lonely for the past years.

We had made our way to the One PPG Place as we heard a loud, exploding sound. The building and road shook as I looked up and saw the windows crashing and falling to the ground. We made our way into the building as we saw a woman on the ground in front of an Meeting Room. She was still alive and we had made our way towards her. People started to rush down the steps and exit rooms and evacuate the building. 

We boosted her up and saw that her leg was bleeding. Her leg was broken and she couldn't walk. We took her outside the building and I sent Riley, Sue, and May with her to the Hospital, check her in, and come back to the building.

They agreed and left with her in an ambulance that was on the street helping people in. Zac and I made our way to the stairs and started climbing. I got another call from a blocked number, I answered it hoping that it was Clara or Aunt Sara. 

"Honey?" A woman said on the other side of the phone.

"Yes, Aunt Sarah? It's Lillian. What's going on?" I asked to Aunt Sarah in a hurry as we climbed the steps rapidly as people we running down the steps and throwing their shoes, so it wouldn't hurt to run. 

"Honey, your mother has gone psycho and blew up all the windows, the floors in here are starting to give way and many people are leaving rapidly. They are all leaving as I can see from the broken window. I am trapped on the top floor." Aunt Sarah said as a screaming sound came from a distance.

"Sarah what was that?" I asked as we made our way to the 22nd floor. 

"Lillian, sweetie I'm going to have to get back to you, your mother is coming back and I better keep this alone or I will end up getting hurt. Goodbye Lillian, I hope that I can see you soon." Aunt Sarah said as she shut off the phone and everything was silent.

We had made our way to the 32nd floor and Zac was still silent. I had never admitted it to Zac, but I kind of loved him. He was cute and funny and he was really nice to everyone. I felt like he was the true one for me.

"Hey Zac? I have a question for you?" I asked as Zac was looking in my direction.

"No, I have a question for you first." He said as there was silence and then he spoke again. "Will you be my girlfriend?" Zac asked as I was in shock.

"Yes Zac. I will be your girlfriend." I replied in delight as the building shook again and the walls started to crack a little bit.

We had reached the top of the building as we saw Aunt Sarah first in the cell, but there was no Clara. We snuck Sarah out as the building shook again. We started to run down the hallway as we heard screaming. We turned the corner to find Audrey in tears, screaming for anyone to find her. 

"Audrey! Audrey it's really you!" I exclaimed as we cut Audrey out of the cell and went off down the hallway.

I saw many empty cells until I saw the man that I knew who read fairytales to me before I went to sleep. It was my father in his Military Uniform, but had no weapons. We broke him out and I gave him the biggest hug ever to mankind. 

We started to make our way towards the exit as the door locked. Then a siren sound broke out and we all turned around to find my mother with a type of phone object. She threw it in the middle of us as Gabe stepped beside her and Clara on the right. Clara was all apart of her plan! She called me just to bring me here and kill me or trap me.

Clara jumped first on top of Sarah as Sarah threw Clara back as Clara threw out her weapon and Aunt Sarah grabbed her weapon. 

I knew that this was going to get ugly.

So I held Audrey and my father back as Aunt Sarah sent Clara to the ground.
