Chapter 1.
"I do." My mother said proudly. It wasn't to last, the happieness, the joy, the emotion. As my new father lifted my mum, her dress knocked the table and the candle wobbled. It fell and they table caught fire, the table fell and it hit the long carpet, my mother jumped with Andre and they both ran. I ran outside.
"Take Alya and Iris and keep them safe for now, please?" my mother begged, I nodded and ran to find them. I found Alya and hugged her tight.
"Where's Iris?" she asked. I looked around but I couldn't see Iris anywhere. That was when I realised. She was still in the church. I knew it was stupid and I knew I was probably going to die. But she was my sister and I loved her. I ran back through the big wooden doors and ignored the worried screams from my mother. I looked around, it was like a scene from an action movie. I continued fearfully searching for Iris. 'This church is huge!' I thought. I raced through all the aisles and up the main aisle. "Iris!" I screamed into the flames "Ahhh!" I screamed quickly as a bit of the roof collapsed. "Iris!"
"Chiane!" A voice screamed back.
"Iris where are you!?!" I shouted.
"I'm stuck behind the table!" she yelled back. I ran towards the burning table and I leapt over it scolding my inner thigh. I ignored the pain and grabbed Iris. I lifted her up and began to run as fast as I could.
"Chiane!" another voice shouted.
"Bloody hell Alya get out of here I have Iris now run!" I shouted towards her. I could hear the roof cracking and I lost all hope. I collapsed on the floor and Alya came over to get me.
"Come on Chiane or you'll die!" Iris shouted over the noise of flames.
"I'm right behind you now go!" I commanded. I wasn't about to tell my eight year old sister that I wasn't going to make it out of a burning church alive. She dragged Alya through the church and out the door, my blonde hair was blackend with dust and debris. I felt my lungs closing up. I looked up and saw that the roof was about to fall. I began to crawl, slowly making my way towards the door. But it didn't take long for the smoke to exaughst me and I gave up.
"Well done Alya...." I coughed out as the roof detatched from the stone build of the church. The last thing I felt was the huge roof collapsing on my limp, dying body, then darkness. The pain, and the sorrow, the heart break. It all lifted and I was free. But one emotion remained still. Guilt.
