I was breathing heavily, the wind in my hair is blowing like crazy as I run. I have to keep running. I tripped over a branch the energy I felt just left my body I hear them coming closer. I have to keep running. I got up shakily I looked around looking for somewhere to hide. I hear their weapons are clashing together as they run. I look up and started climbing to the top. 

I slowed my breathing I saw them stop they looked around wondering where I went they split into groups. After they were gone I get down from the tree. I ran towards a town hoping, praying that they would help me. As I got there the town I was born in was burned to a crisp. The fire was still going I can smell the ash and burning house and human flash burning from children and adults.   I looked for survivors until I heard crying for two kids.

I ran to them and saw something horrible there mother was brutally killed and they left them alive to suffer and walked up to them slowly trying not to scare them with my appearance. They must've heard me cause they turn around with a scared look hoping they didn't come back to kill them. I cooed at them and hugged them close. Years gone by I've been training them to become stronger. Teaching them how to read and write. Their names are soul and Loki two brothers who seen it all and killed the people who killed their mother and village. As for me, my name is Elizabeth and I'm the one who saved us.
