Every part of me erupts in pain from that one stab. I try to keep my voice in my throat, but

it escapes me coming out in aggravated screams. "Just tell me what I want to know, and all

this pain will stop." Karen whispers coming close to my ear. I let the tears stream down my

cheeks, but I say nothing, and she shakes her head, and continues to inflict pain upon my

limbs. Soon my whole body is shaking and all I feel in my legs is numbing pain, I'm hoping

soon I'll lose sense, but soon will never be soon enough. I have long stopped screaming, my

voice harsh, and raw every time I tried. That's when I hear it, at least I think I hear it, and

also think I'm losing it. There's no hope no one is coming to save me. Maybe it would be

better if no one even tried. But it true I do hear footsteps sounds of coming soldiers, part

of me hopes its skitters part of me hopes it just more enemy. I could handle more pain, I

don't know if I could handle seeing the people I love see me like this. I didn't want to have the

possibility of losing one of them, but I guess in this world there was always that chance.

Someone's coming quickly, and I hear them, and when I see them my heart both leaps and

breaks at the same time. Both Derek, and Lisa, side by side with automatic weapons, I see

Hal on their tail, it only seems to be these three. In this moments they're more than people I

see as my Siblings, I see my saviors. Karen turns to then hatred on her eyes Derek goes to

fire, but quicker than I've any seen anyone do, Karen gets my sister in her grip, and hold her

own weapon to her skull. Derek pauses, and once Hal takes in the scene so does he. The

only sounds I hear are my own pathetic whimpers. I fight against my restraints, trying to

get to my sister, just trying to help, to get away. Karen knows she controls the moment, so

she plays on that. "Hello Hal. You're looking wonderful as always. It's nice to see you

alive." she smiles. I can see pain in Hal's eyes. A deep pain, brought on by this girl, as if she

holds a pice of his heart. And maybe she does, but right now this doesn't matter, because

she holds piece of my hart in her grip right now, and she has all the power to break that

piece. "Let her go Karen!" I mean to sound violent, scary in some sense, but in reality it's

weak, whisper dripping with the urge for my older sister just to hold me. "now, like I said

Elizabeth, everyone needs to lose everything they love."

my heart races on my chest as my body continues to dissolve into excruciating pain.

"Please Karen. It doesn't have to come to this. No one has to get hurt. We can figure

something out. Come on Karen, listen to me." Hal's voice is gentle, and for a moment I see

Karen's face soften, and part if me thinks she's gonna let my sister go, and go to Hal, but

she hardens her face, and speaks to him. "Hal, oh Hal do you really think we could figure

something out now? The whole 2nd mass hates me. I am the leader of your enemy." Hal

looks at her, and looks dumbfounded for a moment, but then words come to him again.

"We'd figure something out. We always used to. And I could get them to love you again.

Karen, just put the gun down. No one has to lose anything." Karen's fingers shake, she

shows emotion for only a moment. "I really did love you Hal, but everyone's already lost

something, so it might as well continue."

it's quicker than anything I've ever seen, seconds, maybe even less. I heard the echoing

bang of the gun, and see my sisters body fall limp, her skull shattered open by a bullet. It's

that quick, the death of my sister. Im screaming again, not feeling the pain in my throat, all I

feel is that my body is made of pain, it's just a super nova of crippling pain. Derek opens

fire on Karen, bullets flying everywhere, and her body falls limp as well. Hal is frozen for a

moment, but then Derek falls to his knees, and begins to sob. Hal is broken from his haze,

and comes to unchain me. He tries to scoop me into his arms, but I throw myself over the

side of the table, unable to walk. I stare at my sisters lifeless body, and continue to scream,

and then begin to sob. I hold tight to a body that no longer contains life. Hal pulls at me,

trying to pull me to his chest, but I refuse to let go. I refuse to let my sister go.
