"I sentence you to two years in Camp Green Lake." Everyone was talking. I just stood there shocked. I saved everyone but am getting punished. Whoa I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's go back to the beginning.

I live in an orphanage in New York City. I am turning 16 in November. My name is Katherine my friends call me Kat or Kathy. Wait what friends am I talking about. The others call me Kat or Kathy. I have been in the orphanage all my life. Man it sure is cold at this time. Well what am I expecting heat? Since most of the girls are gone I have to take up more chores since I'm the fourth oldest. I actually have one friend my roommate Bella. Her and I are practically sisters. Well enough about me let me tell you why I'm going to Camp Green Lake. It was one week before Halloween and we were setting up. We have to be cautious around this time because all the crazy people go out. So we use the big locks around this time. Headmistress Mary said 'we don't want anyone taking us.' Actually she means her money.
"Wake up girl's breakfast!" She yelled every morning. I was too tired to wake up.
"Kat wake up its breakfast time." Bella said while shaking me.
"No five more minutes Bella." I whined.
"No get up." She jumped on my bed.
"Fine I'm awake." We went downstairs and ate our oatmeal. I actually hate oatmeal but it was the only thing we got at breakfast. Then we went off and did our daily chores. I had to clean the living room with Bella. It took till lunchtime which was sandwiches. Then me and Bella did all extra work then stopped at about five and relaxed and ate dinner. Bedtime was really early for us. It was about seven and I was reading on my bed. Yes I can read I'm very smart. I have been put into so many schools its not even funny anymore. I am still in high school but the last lady I was with died in a gang bang so I had to go back to the orphanage. It was dark out and it was cold. Then I heard a crash from downstairs so I crept down. I looked and saw someone dressed in black coming in through the window of the headmistress office. I know she keeps a gun in there so I silently crawled in and it fell. I wanted to gasp but I couldn't he looked over and he starting to walk over then he stepped on my hand I screamed I my mouth then he saw me. I grabbed the gun and pulled the trigger. It hit him. He fell on the floor. I looked at him then the gun. I heard some else coming and then I pulled the trigger on them not knowing who they were. It was a woman who screamed. I turned on the lights and started to cry. I yelled for headmistress Mary's sister Martha.
"Martha!" I kept yelling. She ran in and dropped to Mary's side. I called the police. Headmistress was taken care of at the hospital I went with her.
"Who did this to you?" The police man asked.
"Her!" She pointed to me.
"It was an accident I thought it was another robber." I said.
"I told you it was me but you didn't care." She fake sobbed. That lying bitch.
"No you didn't she is lying." I yelled.
"I was so kind to you all your life and this is how you repay me?" She cried. I hate her. The police told me she was going to take me to court. Great. Martha drove me to the orphanage.
"I know you didn't mean to shoot her. I mean why would you. It was self defense." She said.
"Yes it was. Can you testify for me at the hearing?" I asked.
"I am sorry to say I can't it would be wrong to go against my older sister." Man she actually liked her sister. Wow. I went to my room and told Bella all that happen she helped me back and straightened my hair. Yes she has a straightener she got it when she was with a rich family during Christmas.
The next day I got all dressed in nice clothes. My black skirt and my white polo with a black tank top under it with my black flats. All hammy downs.
"Katherine Bickett is being charged for shooting her headmistress after she told her it was her." Mary nodded. She is not headmistress anymore she is just Mary.
"Well let's hear from Ms. Mary Evan now." He said. She went up. They did the truth thingy and she sat down.
"Tell us what happen Ms. Evans." The lawyer said.
"Well I was sleeping in my room right next to my office and I heard a gun shot and I saw Katherine standing over the man she pointed to me and I said 'Katherine its me headmistress Mary' and she still shot me." I stood up.
"That's not true. You're a lying bitch. She's lying." I yelled.
"Sit down Ms.Bickett and don't use that language in my court room." The judge yelled to me. They kept taking. And the whole time she was lying. I tilted my chair back to talk to Bella.
"I hate her." She said.
"I know. Do you believe me?" I asked.
"Of course." She said. I sat back up. It was my turn to go up. I did the truth thingy and sat down.
"Ms. Bickett tell us what happen?" The lawyer asked me.
"Well I was upstairs reading and I heard a crash downstairs so I checked and someone was robbing us so I grabbed the gun and I shot him and I heard someone coming not knowing who it was but I shot and it was headmistress Mary." I said. The jury went into the room and they pleaded me guilty. I was shocked. Mary was happy. Bella was crying.
"You have two choices Camp Green Lake or jail." He said.
"Well I choose Camp Green Lake." I said.
"I sentence you to two years in Camp Green Lake." Everyone was talking. I just stood there shocked. I saved everyone but am getting punished. I grabbed my back pack and changed. Martha said I should wear a skirt because it is hot out there. So I wore my jean skirt with a black tank top with my black bra straps showing. And my favorite black converse. I had Bella re straighten my hair. I hugged everyone and I would not let go of Bella.
"I'll write you everyday." I said. We were crying.
"Okay. I'm going to miss you so much." She said. Her and I have been through so much together it was heart breaking to leave each other. I got handcuffed and got on the bus. All the girls were chasing after it waving and yelling goodbye.
