[Bitter-Sweet Lives]

Introduction

I dropped out of the helicopter, and onto the top of the burning building. I ran down the stairs, trying to find her in this smoke. After a couple rooms I found her in an empty room. The room was cold and free of fire and smoke, very strange. I walked towards the corner she was in, I was in a hurry to get us out. I laid a hand on her shoulder and she burst into flames, screaming at me to leave her alone. I backed away as she got up. She started towards me, leaving fire behind her. I ran, trying to get away from the monster that was once was my sister. I got to a dead end, I looked for an escape quickly. I found a window close by, so I jump out of it. The shards of glass cut me as I jumped. As I was falling I looked back at the monster, it was at the window looking at me as if I was trash being thrown away. Tears leaked from my eyes as I fell, that wasn't my sister… she was gone. I closed my eyes as I got close to the ground.

More shot up from his sleep, tears forming at the corner of his eyes. He looked around the room, it was all just a dream. He got out of bed, walking to the closet. He changed into his Skillet t-shirt and some old jeans. He ran his fingers through his black, long hair as he walked to his sisters room. "Genesis, you awake?" he asked, knocking on her door. "Yes" her soprano voice said, opening the door. Her white hair was pulled up into long pigtails, she was wearing a t-shirt, a purple skirt, knee length striped socks and combat boots. "Are you ready for school?" he asked, she nodded "Yeah, all I need is breakfast" He flashed a smile "Well then to the kitchen!' he said, she smiled as she followed him.

"Is mom and dad up?" Genesis asked, sitting down the bar. More shrugged "I don't know" They heard a thump, followed by an "Ow!" More chuckled "Well, we know mom"s up" Their mother walked in the kitchen, rubbing her head. "Morning mom" Genesis said, giving her a hug. "Good Morning children" Caitlin said, rubbing her eyes. "Is dad up?" More asked, getting the pan out. "Your father is out in another one of those world meetings" their mother said, getting the eggs out for her son. "More, are you going to cook breakfast?" she asked, he nodded as she handed him the eggs."That's nice" she said, sitting down.

"Hey mom?" Genesis asked as More cooked. "hmn?" Caitlin made a noise to substitute the word 'what' "What was that noise before you came in here?" she asked, her mother looked quite embarrassed "I ran into a door" More laughed, placing the eggs on three different plates. "Again?" she shrugged "Yeah" He gave everyone their plates "Eat up" he said, sitting down. After they ate Genesis and More went to school.
