The night of it all I wasn't even 100 percent sure what happened. I was just a kid who had no idea about anything.
I woke up to commotion. Looking over at my fish tank, I saw the water had risen up from the tank in an unexplainable way. Being curious, I followed the noise downstairs, still keeping the tank in mind.
I noticed my mom in the center of 3 flashes of light. She had this look of horror on her face and they seemed to be circling around her. My father was on the other side on his knees, begging for her release. He quickly took notice of my presence and ran over to me.
"Chloe, run!" He said to me, putting his hands on my shoulder and giving me a serious look. After that, I was sped 5 blocks away from my house. I noticed a figure to my right and got a quick glance. It was a girl in a pink suit. I didn't get to see the face because it was blurred but I could make out a small smirk from the figure. I must have caught her off guard because she shook her head and ran back to the scene. I eventually followed.
When I returned, my house was now swarming with police and my parents weren't in sight. I tried to enter the house again and I even fought a few people to get in until this one man grabbed my arm. I managed to get out of the grip and sneak past. I entered the house and walked over to the blanket on my carpet. I lifted it up to reveal both my father and mother laying down with their eyes open.
"Mom? Dad?" I questioned. Yes I was a kid but I knew one thing for sure: they were gone. I put the blanket back over them and sat in my living room with my head on the bodies of my two dead parents. Eventually I was picked up by a police officer and taken to the house next door.
There I was introduced to Barry and Iris, my two lifelong best friends. Barry had been new to this house as well and I could tell something was wrong.
"What's wrong?" I asked him.
"My mom, she's gone....and my dad...well....he's in prison."
"My parents are gone too. Both."
"Wanna talk about it?" He asked me. Iris gave us some privacy and we talked about it. By the end I saw that our fingers were intertwined and his hand was in mine. A small blush was on my cheeks at the realization and in that moment I knew this was the start to an amazing friendship.
