THE PURGE- TikTok

fifteen.

*Carmens POV*

everyone is staring at me being completely silent. this is so awkward. im trying not to think about what just happened, but they are making it impossible. i just saw the remains of a man i killed, fuck. Christopher kisses my temple causing me to look up at him, he smiles sadly while grabbing one of my hands. i just noticed im shaking. great. im okay, right? i feel like im going to be sick. why did i have to see that?

" you okay moon?" christopher whispers in my ear
"yeah i think so. i just want to be back in bed asleep, i feel like im going to be sick. i can still s-smell th-them" i shiver at the memory
" go to sleep sis, im right here if you need me." he says kissing my forehead causing me to cuddle into his side.

i close my eyes and fall into a nightmare filled sleep.

*NIGHTMARE, STILL IN CARMENS POV*

"shhh Luna, everythings okay. mommy just has to get a couple things. you will be okay little one.." she says trying to calm luna

Luna stops crying as her mother walks through food lion trying to find what is needed for the next 12 hours with an infant and killers running around. she keeps looking at her recent check from a local resturaunt as well as tips. she walks down the isle with toilet paper and hair products with luna in one arm as well as a diaper bag thrown over her shoulder. suddenly she is frozen as a womens voice is heard over the speakers.

" this is not a test. this is your emergency broadcast system announcing the commencement of the Annual Purge sanctioned by the U.S. Government. Weapons of class 4 and lower have been authorized for use during the Purge. All other weapons are restricted. Government officials of ranking 10 have been granted immunity from the Purge and shall not be harmed. Commencing at the siren, any and all crime, including murder, will be legal for 12 continuous hours. Police, fire, and emergency medical services will be unavailable until tomorrow morning at 7 am, when the Purge concludes. Blessed be our New Founding Fathers and America, and nation reborn. May god be with you all."

everythings chaos, screams can be heard everywhere. she tries to turn and run but as soon as she does he is behind her...the man i killed.

" j-johnny.. please dont do anything to me or the baby... just let us leave peacefully a-and i-i" she stutters trying to catch her breath that she lost as soon as she saw the man i killed, aka johnny.

wait.. johnny..? does that mean she knows him? looking at it she is sweating and holding luna tightly while he looks pissed. what is this? why can i see this without the seeing me? is this some sort of lucid dreaming?

" shut up Bianca! you tried to leave me and took luna away at the same time! thats my kid too!" Johnny slurs loudly as he steps closer
" only by blood! you are abusive! these brusises didnt come from me 'falling down the stairs' like we told those who cared to even ask. first you get drunk, then you leave, drink more, screw around with other women in OUR HOME, then beat me and force me to have sex with you once they leave! its been shitty for the past 6 years because i was dumb enough to let you get in my pants and get me pregnant at 17! you've changed! you used to be so different! you and your stupid black curls and blue eyes!" she spits backing away from johnny with tears building up in her eyes. im standing beside her watching it all play out. i want to comforat her so bad but she cant even see me.
" I'm going to take you with me." Johnny says slurring his words
" n-no please!" Bianca voice sobs as Luna starts crying, im just noticing im crying as well
" SHUT THE FUCK UP!" He yells causing me to flinch as well as Bianca before he takes luna away from her
" NO NOT MY BABY!!" She sobs causing him to groan.
" I will find someone else. You are so fucking annoying." johnny says before putting a bullet in Biancas head causing her to fall to the ground as her blood spills out into a pool around her head. im full aware that i screamed when she fell, simply for the fact Bianca is dead. again.
