“DEANNA I TOLD YOU HE WAS GOING TO KILL YOU!” my mother yelled and with another thud the door burst open exposing a bear of a man he had long brown hair that sat at his shoulders his eye brows (brow) was as thick as it was long. He wore a leather jackets and jeans. In his left hand was a beer bottle and in the right was a broken lamp end.  He charged, the lamp swung at me it’s jagged me on the left arm it started to bleed automatically.

“Die b*tch!” Toby? Yelled.

“You get her babe.” Mom yelled. Then kissed him on the check I couldn’t handle this anymore all my anger was built up. I felt like I was being compressed in to a small little can it becoming smaller and smaller. Finally I popped and so did my water bottle. I went on auto pilot and raised my hand to chest level and pointed it at Toby and clenched my fist Toby fell to the floor  clutching his throat and choking my mother was freaking out but I turned to her next and closed my fist she hit the floor with a thud and was gasping for air. Toby’s face had turned blue-ish purple and I don’t know why but I could feel as he and my mother took their last breath. I finally came back to my scenes and sunk to the floor crying  I looked at my now dead mother lying on my floor water was seeping from her mouth as was Toby’s. I felt drained and my world went black.
