'You smiled and laughed as both you and your father ran into the woods. Today was finally the day you got to learn how to use a gun! You looked up at your father as he carried the guns.

"Dad when can I use the gun?" You asked, eager to learn how to use it. Your father smiled at you and patted your head.

"Soon, pumpkin, soon. You just have to be patient." You pouted at your father and nodded. The two of you then walked further into the woods. Once you were further enough in, your father looked around and smiled. "Yep! This should be about right." Your father then glanced down at you and grinned. "Are you ready sweetie?" Your face brightened and you nodded while grinning.

"Yeah!" You exclaimed. Your father smiled and handed you one of the guns, which was a rifle. He then held his own rifle and looked at you.

"Okay now sweetie, when handling a gun, you must be very careful. And I mean VERY careful." You looked at your father and nodded in understanding. Your father then held up his rifle and aimed it at a tree. "Now, when you are aiming at prey, do not let your emotions get in the way. Keep a steady breath and calm yourself. Once you have done that, you will have a much more clear sight on things. Then it will be easier to hit your target." Your father explained. To prove his point, your father did the very things that he told you to do and steadied his heart and breathing. He then saw a bird flying and aimed his gun at the bird and shot it. You watched with wide eyes as the bird fell to he ground and you smiled at your father.

"Woah! That was so cool!" You exclaimed. Your father smiled at you. He then saw a deer and pointed it to it.

"Go on, try it. Shoot that deer." Your father told. You looked at the deer and nodded. You then aimed the gun at the deer and calmed your breathing. Once you had done all of the things your father told, you aimed your gun at the deer and fired. The bullet grazed the deer by the ear and it ran away. You frowned and straightened.

"Aw, it got away!" You told. Your father laughed out loud and patted you on the back.

"Well it was your first time. So don't be so hard on yourself. We can always try again later." You looked up at your father and smiled and nodded.

"Yeah!"'

Those were the happier days. You breathed heavily as you ran away from the crumbling city with your parents. You and your family were having a picnic when the peace keeper suddenly appeared and began attacking everything. You looked up at the peace keeper and saw a young robot boy fighting it. You then winced when the peace keeper had used a building to smack the robot boy away as if he were a baseball. You then felt someone grab your hand and you looked up to see that your mother was dragging you behind her.

"Hurry, Y/N! We need to get out of here and head to somewhere safe!" Your mother cried. You nodded and continued on running with your parents. Why did this have to happen? You looked around at the city, sad to see it in such a destroyed state. You then tripped on a rock and cried out as you fell to the ground. Your parents gasped and went to grab you when the ground began to shake. Your eyes widened. You then saw that both the boy and the peace keeper were both charging up a beam and watched with wide eyes as the two beams collided and deflected each other. Both beams had thinned out and gone off in different directions. You stood up and saw that the red beam was heading right for you. Your eyes widened as the beam hit you right in the eyes, causing for you to fly back into a building. Your parents gasped in horror as they watched you fall to the ground and ran towards you.

"Y/N!" Both your parents cried out. You groaned in pain and couldn't open your eyes. It was simply impossible, your eyes. They hurt so much. You couldn't see at all and your ears were ringing. You felt the glass of the building you had smashed into cut your back, arms and legs. You could move at all. You then felt a warm liquid roll down the side of your head as you laid there. You then felt someone pick you up and you immediately felt pain.

"U-ugh..." You groaned. You then heard a gasp and tried to open your eyes but it was simply too painful to.

"Hang on, I'll get you to the hospital." You frowned slightly. This voice, it wasn't at all familiar. You then heard faded out noises. One female, the other male. Were they, your parents? You tried to move your body, but you just simply couldn't. You then felt your world disappear from right under you and felt the wind against your face. Your hair was currently covering your eyes so the damage couldn't be seen. You then felt the person who was carrying you hand you over to someone else and you tried to reach out to the person.

"T-t....ugh..." That was it, you simply couldn't hold it in any longer. You coughed out blood as your hand went limp and you fell unconscious. Were you going to die? You sure felt like you were going to. Your body was in so much pain, you just couldn't handle it. Glass shards were in your body, you were positive that your left arm was broken and you couldn't see at all or hear very well. Your nose must have also been broken. You felt yourself slipping in and out of consciousness as you felt someone put you on something and wheel you into some sort of vehicle. You had no idea what was going on and you were scared. The last thing you remember was something covering your mouth, helping you breath a lot more easily before losing consciousness.
