Troubles P.O.V

I slammed the fridge door shut with my left foot as my arms were full with Sodas, I wasn't thirsty, I just needed to get some stress off my shoulders and calm myself down.

I lined them up along the table, one next to the other, an inch gap between them before stepping back until I was up against the wall, I pulled my gun from my pocket and took a deep breath in before shooting each can one by one, my teeth biting chewing onto my bottom lip.

The sound the bullet made as it made impact with the can, the fizz of the soda and then sound of the gun itself brought a slight smile to my face, honestly, I missed being able to shoot people and get away with it, it's not that i'm a bad person, it's that I just loved to shoot stuff. I then lowered the gun and placed it back into my pocket, 

"I used to be so calm.." I said outloud "I used to be so nice.. Destiny calmed me.. Destiny made me feel like I could be a better person.. but now I'm back to the way I was before.." I sighed loudly, walking over and picking up a can, closing my mouth around the bullet hole and drinking it from there. 

"Sun Down" I said out loud once more 

"Sun Down and I'll have my baby girl back in my arms" I was confident that Bert would confess everything, if not I'd have to go to Plan B, Plan B was defiantly a risky one.

I sat down on my sofa, kicking my shoes off and laying down, my mouth never losing contact with the hole in the can, I finally moved it away from my lips as I reached down to grab the tv remote, 

"SunDown.. Just wait unti SunDown.." I kept saying to myself, reasurring myself that everything was going to be alright.

I flicked on the Television to see there was a news story on the whole case, 

"what the.. we agreed it wouldn't be on T.V!" I scoffed and sat up, my eyes glued to the screen.  

"I'm standing here outside a court house where a 17 year old girl was trialed for two attempted murders.." the news report said with a smug look along her face, 

"Destiny Willows was found guilty after she attempted to kill Bert Millions at a local hospital with a knife and after she had attempted to kill another citizen with a gun in the back of the neck. so far, nobody but Mr.Millions has pressed charges" I punched the sofa next to me, He's a liar! how could they not see that! They're all liars!

"at this point in time Destiny will be facing 10 years of jail time, Bert millons talks of the terror attack" the tv then switched to Bert standing outside the courtroom, moments after I had told him that he must confess by sundown if he knew what was good to him, he had at-least 10 microphones shoved under his noses witht he same amount of camera surrounding him. 

"It was terrible!" He moaned "She just jumped over the bed and attacked me like some sort of wild animal! I'm getting all shaky just thinking about it" I narrowed my eyes at the screen

"I think it was appropriate for her to go to jail.. I think it's safer for everyone.." He then looked directly at the camera and said slyly 

"and she will defiantly be staying in that jail past sundown. and there is nothing anybody can do about it" he was obviously directing it at me, everybody else would've been so very confused.

I was just about to jump up off of the sofa and march all the way down to Berts house and shoot his head off when my phone began to ring, startling me slightly, I answered the private number quickly

"Hello?" 

"I believe you saw my little message on the news..?" Berts evil voice said from the other end of the phone
