Hi,
I'm Anjeli Brown a 19 year old convict serving a 6 year sentence.

You may be wondering what happened? Or Why am I in prison?
Well this is my story.

My life never used to be a mess but that one night completely changed me. When I was thirteen I pretty much had the perfect life I had two parents who were always there for me and an older brother called Dylan. Me and my family were really close, we always had each other's backs. By my fifteen birthday my 'perfect' life wasn't so perfect anymore it had been turned upside down. Dylan became a drug dealer and often got into fights. My mum found out she had cancer and wouldn't last more than a few months. Two months later she. Passed.....

I remember that day as if it was yesterday...
FLASHBACK

'RING'
Finally the bell I can finally go Home and get out of this hellhole..........

I had just got of the bus and was walking up to the front door. I paused for  a moment....something wasn't right I didn't know what but my instincts told me something was wrong. I paused at the door holding my key out midair deciding whether I should go in or not..... I decided to see what was wrong
And thank God I did .
Some people pity me for the fact that I was there when she took her last few breaths but honestly I'm glad I got to say goodbye and that she wasn't alone. My mums death completely broke me but there was more to come.....

Later that day Dylan came home, he went upstairs to his room to smoke some weed.
I was sitting downstairs on the sofa crying while my Dad tried to calm me down. When the doorbell rang. I didn't think much of it I thought it was probably just a salesmen or something but the bell kept on ringing. My Dad got up to see who it was. He opened the door to reveal Steve he was standing by the door with his arms crossed and an angry expression on his face..
'WHERE IS DYLAN?' Steve said in an annoyed tone
'Why do you want to see my son?'
'HE HAS OWED ME MONEY FOR A LONG TIME TODAY IS HIS DEADLINE IF I DON'T GET THE  MONEY RIGHT THIS MINUTE I WILL TAKE HIS LIFE AS PAYMENT!!!'
'I WILL NOT LET YOU SEE MY SON!!!!!!'
'Why put Dylan out of his misery when I can make him suffer worse' Steve said with a smirk on his face....
And with that Steve pulled out a gun. The gun was gold with an image of a lion on it and that's when I realised that Steve was a member of the lions...

And that was the night that everything changed. It was the night that I decided that I couldn't be soft anymore. I couldn't let people bring me down. I couldn't let Steve get away with this......
