(this is my first ever attempted story writing! Sorry for any mistakes and if you see one, tell me and I'll make sure to fix it!)
The story is written from the point of view of a 13 year old pisces artsy child! it's a journal that was written by a child as they turn 13.
Story:
Two religious parents, 5 sons and 1 daughter as the protagonist
Can they survive their first purge?
It all started around January of 2019, someone in Facebook made a joke post about the government confirming that on march 21th all crimes including murdering will be legal from 7:00 PM and end at 7:00 AM just like in the series The Purge. It eventually got famous and became the brother of the area 51 meme as people had posted thousands upon thousands of memes that was themed 'what I'll do during the purge'. Unlike the area 51 memes tho, the government had actually taken this seriously and instead of disagreeing with it, they actually considered it, yes of course they'd be counting the risks of it but did many meetings discussing about what should and shouldn't be changed about the purge when they'll start it.
Meanwhile all that, the little family only had one person who is the most aware of all the happenings, it was the small child named Star, as she is the only one in the whole family who checks on the social media content that came from all over the world, she was the only one who knows about the purge memes and the government of America considering it, although since she doesn't lives in America she was just excited to see how this will all add up. Little does she know, she will still unfortunately be involved in all this
As the government discussed is for weeks and weeks, around the start of February, they finally agreed on doing the purge, but not only in the America, the whole world will do it, other than the Europeans they all agreed. And so they looped the news on all the news channel all the time until 21th of March comes
And so the world will end sooner than any of us had expect
A ragtag gang of teens teams up with a neighboring girl gang when a major cartel moves into town, threatening their families, their turf, and the community they've worked so hard to protect.

However, the gang gets more than they bargained for when the Mendoza cartel rolls into town, determined to knock them off the map. As the threat hits closer to home, Cash has no choice but to team up with his ex-girlfriend Tiana's neighboring girl gang, the Hearts of Spades. Soon allies become enemies, families get trapped in the crossfire, and romance brews as Cash fights to unravel a massive conspiracy that puts everyone that matters to him at risk. When the stakes are life and death, will the gangs be able to overcome an enemy more powerful than any of them could have predicted?
