CHAPTER:1
There was a loud smash coming from downstairs, I was going to close my eyes and go back to dreamland thinking I probably imagined it when I heard screams, they were my mothers screams. "What was that" asked my brother, my younger 4 year old brother.
"I don't know" I responded in a shaky voice, then another loud crash was heard followed by more screams this time my fathers, by now I was so scared and confused that I was frozen in shock but then I heard sobs and I turned my head to look at my brother "I'm scared Lu ~" he said while his face expressed all that I felt. "Its ok" I said soothingly finally getting the courage to get out of bed and go to my brother who's bed was next to mine "I'm scared where's mommy and daddy?" he said in a broken voice while hugging me tightly. "I-I think their ok but am going to go check so how about you go through our secret door and wait for me at the end don't get out ok ill be right back" I promised, then kissed his forehead and moved his bed to reveal the small wooden door designed to look like part of the wall "go on its alright" I said in a reassuring voice when I saw him hesitate he nodded making his silky black curls bounce and gave me one of his small smiles while going inside. I shut the door as soon as I was sure he was walking away then moved his bed back I turned around and grabbed the small silver kunai from under my pillow the one father had given me for my 7th birthday and started rushing to my parents room. My heart beating loudly inside my chest and cold sweat mixing with my tangled hair, I was very quite though for stealth was the first thing father had taught me. Once I had reached the outside of their room I took a quick look around and realized that everything seemed fine nothing was out of place well except for the smashed window in the living room, I was about to knock thinking maybe just maybe I was imagining things when I heard someone crying, was it mother?. "Mother!" I screamed throwing the door open and what my eyes saw next would be something forever tattooed into my memories.
