Chapter one: Sadness and Sorrow

It was a fresh night as I lied under a tree trying to relax peacefully, but not until the sound of crashes occurred.

I rose up and started running till I approached where the crashing sound belong, there I saw a huge mansion that was on fire. It was my house....

Delta Olsen was my name. I was 10 years old girl back then, I lived in a quite huge old fashioned mansion in England. I lived with mom and dad, my grandparents, my uncle, and my cousins the triplets Ash, Mark and Drake, I was older than them all, about 5 years older.

They were all inside the house while the care-less me was out enjoying the night. I cried their names out; there was no sound but the sound of screaming flames. I cried their names over and over again. Only Drake appeared from all the sudden, wounded and barely could say anything.

"What happened?!" I shouted.

He didn't answer, he was unconscious. I ran into him and lift him onto my back, he's 5 so he won't be heavy on me. I reached the entrance door that leads out. I left him there and went back inside to find the others. I was panicked but I had had to be courage.

I searched for them really hard, I couldn't find anyone by that time though. There was so many corridors in the mansion, my house. I thought for a minute, I did not check the eating room, so I ran as fast as I could. I reached there, and found my Father lying on the floor, breathless and very wounded. Fear got into me. I gasped and ran quickly to my father's dead body with no hope that he'd still be alive.

I screamed "Father" and "father" but he did not respond, but suddenly, I heard his precious breaths coming outta his mouth. My eyes were filled with tears and started to fall down to my puffy cheeks. All at once, a hand wiped my tears away and I stopped to look up to my father who was terribly wounded lying on the crappy carpet.

"Don't cry I will be sad then." He gave me a sad smile. I winced when I saw him coughing blood.

"Hang i-it on father I'm going to s-save you!" I faltered, "I have had found Drake and got him out of here and its only you and the others left! I can handle them all, Father!!" I said with confidence. I tried to push him up so I can carry him on my back but I couldn't

"It's no use, sweetie, my body is wholly burnt and my ribs are terribly broken, my time is about to end now so-" I cut him off before he could complete whatever he was gonna say.

"No I'm not going to leave you die! I will be left alone and....

*sobs*... after that... *sobs*... WHO WILL TAKE CARE OF ME AND DRAKE!" My eyes watered and tears started to fall.

The room fell silence only leaving the fire's sound to be heard.

"Listen," he reached his pocket and took out a necklace, it has a "x" with two small lines in the end of it on the right side, two in above and two in the bottom, and has a circle in the middle of it, "keep this with you... *gasps*... I won't tell you what can it do, find about it yourself, I'm sure it will help you occasionally.... *gasps*... but don't let anyone take it or either way.... touch it." A serious look appeared on his face. I took the necklace from his grip and wore it promptly.

Before I could say anything he spoke up:

"Now, be a good girl and get out from here before it crashes, there's no way they'd still be alive, be strong and never think on giving up." He said it without leaving his smile off his face. I nodded but before I go I gave father a kiss on the top of his head then turned my heels back to leave as quickly as I can.

Tears are falling from my eyes while running for my life. I almost approached the front door that leads out but a very large piece of plank had blocked it, dam it! My eyes widened, what should I do what should I do?! But then I remembered we have a back door, great! I rushed to the back door to find it safe and valid to get out. I got out of my house and ran back to where Drake was.

It was a bad day, a very bad day.....
