Alex

I felt terrible, I was so upset and angry at the people who shot my aunt and cousin.

I wasn't close to them, but I know for a fact that Kim is, and she loves them a whole bunch, so seeing her hurt, is also hurting me. She's sitting by Zack on the plane, and she's numb, I can see that, who the hell would even shoot someone like that?

Zack was doing everything he could to comfort her, and so was the rest of the family, but she wouldn't budge. She stared out the window.

She wasn't listening to music, or anything. Just stairing out the window.

Hannah was awake when we got to the hospital. She was crying, I mean, I would be too if I just lost my mom.

She frantically said words to Kim, and Kims face, that you think couldn't have gotten any worse, did. And my dad who was in the room with her, looked horrified.

He started asking Kim questions, just as frantically as Hannah spoke, and she had tears running down her face as she tried to answer all of my dads questions.

Dad was fuming.

Did I mention that Hannah was in the ICU, so the walls were glass, so we could see everything? Well, that's how I'm seeing this.

I can't see Kimberlys' face anymore, but I see my dads, shocked, scared, and hurt, as well as angrier than I'd ever seen him.

Mom went in there, to see what was going on, and her face broke too as my dad explained to her what Kim told him.

"What do you think they're talking about?" I ask Zack.

"I don't know, but I'm scared to find out."

They were talking about Denny.

Denny broke out of jail, somehow.

He's gone, but he shot Hannah and my Aunt Lydia.

Dad asked Kim why he was in jail, and she painfully told him that he beat her, and trapped her, and nearly killed her a couple times, and dad was beyond pissed.

He drove to the police station, taking me with him, yelling at the people to find Denny because his baby girl is in danger, and because he already shot his sister and her daughter, but of course the police knew that, and they didn't know what to do or say.

Denny is out of jail, and no one is safe.
