THE LAST THING FLORENCE Shelby expected to see on Christmas Eve, was her next door neighbour, James, fall straight to the floor with a puddle of blood pooling underneath him, the boy taking the bullet for what was meant to be for her. The second that Florence saw the black hand on the card she had been mailed, she knew that she was in trouble, as for the rest of her family, and she also knew that she had made a big mistake with leaving her fathers house, because now, she was alone, with nothing but a pistol in her bedside table, on the other side of her flat, where she couldn't even get to. Everything felt like it was happening in slow motion as she moved her eyeline up to the two men standing at her front door, each holding guns and wearing suits, like they were professionals — the girl didn't waste any time in turning around and falling to the ground to avoid the bullets flying in her direction, trying to push back the guilt she felt from James' death. The girl tried to think of what her father would do in this situation, and how he would get out of this mess alive, but absolutely nothing came to mind as she shook violently, crawling along her hallway to get out of sight.
"Where did she go?" One of the men yelled out, Florence instantly recognising the accent as Italian, and knowing that she was utterly screwed. She didn't know what her father had done now, but if she had the Italian Mob after her, then it couldn't be good, and the rest of her family would be in danger, too. When Florence reached her room, the girl stood up and slid in, quietly shutting the door behind her so they wouldn't hear her, before rushing over to her bedside table, opening the first draw and pulling out her gun; she had never shot anyone before, she always had her uncles and father to protect her against any danger towards her, but right now, she was alone, with none finger uncles or father to help, and that thought alone, terrified her. Loading the gun, Florence took a deep breath and shut her eyes, praying that she wouldn't have to shoot one of them, praying that they would just leave, but she knew that she was asking for a miracle.
When she began to hear the men walking down the hallway, knocking down anything in their way, the girls heart sped up, holding her breath the more closer they got, afraid that they would hear her breathing and kick down the door and kill her. Luckily for the Shelby girl, they started knocking down every other door first, before finally standing outside her bedroom door, knowing that she was in there and hiding from them both. "Come out, little Shelby." The other man said, after a few seconds of silence, the two hit men listening to the girls panicked breaths from the other side of the door.. Florence was completely stuck, since she was too high to jump out of her bedroom window, she didn't have a choice but to defend herself from inside; the girl slowly stood up, trying to make as little noise as possible, before backing up, holding her gun up to the door and aiming straight for where she thought one of the two men would be standing, her hands slightly shaking due to how much she feared about killing a man — she had always been around death, since she was a child, because of who her family were, but actually taking a life, was a completely different story. She had stood by whilst her family killed others, but she didn't want to take one herself, and that's what scared her the most.
