Prologue-

"I'm home!" I called out. My voice seemed to echo in the silence.

"Mama !" Nothing. I started to panick.

"Mama are you here?" I froze as I heard a thunderous shot that, was followed by two more. I dropped my school books and ran towards the sound.

My heart pounded in my eight year old chest as I ran upstairs to my mother's room. When I turned the corner, her bedroom door was wide open, without thinking I ran in. My heart lurched inside my chest, my veins felt like ice and I could hear the blood pounding in my ears. My mother laid face down on her bed room floor. Her precious life was bleeding out into a puddle.I ran to her side as tears pricked at the corners of my eyes.

"Mama!" I sobbed.

Turning her head so I could see her face. Blood gushed out of the wound on the side of her head and her dark chestnut hair was stained. Her once beautiful blue green eyes were now glassy and lifeless. I wrapped my skinny arms around her motionless body, ignoring the cold, sticky blood that now seeped into my clothes. I called her name, pleading her to come back to me, and that I needed her.

I heard the familiar click of a gun. I froze, then there was a loud boom that sounded like thunder. The shot wissed by me, and lodged itself in the wood floor board,not less than three inches from were my head would have been. I sipped around falling away from my mother's body.A tall large man stood a few feet away from was tall and had short, white hair. He wore a white mask and a white floor length robe. Slowly he raised a silver revolver and aimed it at my forehead. Click. The devilish smile that creeped across his face told me he wasn't going to miss this time.
