Prologue

Bad days. We all have them, but this has got to be the worst.

It all started with my 3 best friends: Elizabeth, Brooke, and Annalee, and I walking down the street headed towards olive garden, to celebrate Brooke's recent engagement to her boyfriend of 7 years, Gaara no sabuku.

When we got to the restaurant, I had a funny feeling something bad was going to happen. I just didn't know what. So I left it alone. I must have been spacing out, because Annalee poked me in the side to get my attention. Brooke and Elizabeth didn't seem to notice as our hostess lead us to our table.

"Are you okay?" she asked.

"Yeah. I'm fine." I replied.

Half way through dinner, I had been kicked, poked, and pinched for staring off instead of joining in on n the conversations. Near the end, the tension radiating off my body was so thick that it could have had its own section of the restaurant.

"Okay! What's up? You've been acting stranger than normal." Annalee demanded, dragging me into the women's bathroom.

"I don't know. For some reason, I know something bad is about to happen."

"We talkin' parents forgetting you at school bad. Or someone's going to get hurt, bad?"

"Hurt or worse. I don't know when or where, but it's going to happen."

"Damn! That's bad."

"Yeah! I know."

When we were walking back to our table, we heard several raised voices coming from behind us.

"Let's get out of here." Elizabeth said frantically running towards us, Brooke and Gaara (who joined us shortly after we sat down) following close behind us,

"What's going o-. OH MY GOD! HE'S GOT A GUN!" A young teenage girl screamed pointing to a raven haired man with a chicken ass hairstyle. He had a gun pointed at me.

"Sasuke, what are you doing here?" I shrieked.

"You thought I'd let you get away with dumping me? You're crazy. You're going to pay." He growled.

"Sasuke, killing her won't make you feel better." Elizabeth growled right back.

"Who said anything about killing HER? All I have to do is shoot someone else, leave her with the gun, got to the police and say you three killed them. And then she goes to prison, then hell."

"Why are you doing this? You told me you gave up on me weeks ago." I wailed while Elizabeth and Annalee held on to me.

"I lied." And with that he and 2 other men killed everyone except us. I was grateful that Brooke and Gaara left before all this. They then placed the guns in our hands and ran to the police station down the street.

In a matter of minutes, we were under arrest. That's when our lives all went to hell. We were only 20 and didn't know what hit us.
