A/n: I only own Jack, Tara, Ben, and Carrie. And the plot. and this ".:.:.:" means a scene change or generally a time skip:) enjoy
Summary:
Every year, on the day of The Purge, I take Jack up to a cabin in the mountains to wait out the 12 hour, inevitable devastation . I knew that after a while someone would notice the pattern, I just didn't expect anyone to follow.

I checked my watch and saw that it would be only 3 hours till the Annual Purge would begin. I grabbed the suitcases and bags that I had in the entryway and began loading them into the car.
I had a panic room built under a cabin up in the mountains when Jack was born and every year I take him there so he would be safe.
I glanced around to see if anyone was outside and was glad to see people had already locked up for the day. I walked back into the house and got those stupid blue flowers,I never bothered to remember the name of, and sat them outside my door to make sure my house at least didn't broken into by a smartass looking for an excuse.
When I was sure I had everything, I got Jack from the living room and strapped him into his car seat.
"Are we going to the cabin, mommy?" He asked.
"Yeah." I replied, enthusiastically." I brought stuff to make s'mores."
His eyes lit up and I laughed.
I got in and started the car and drove away.
.:.:.:.
We had an early dinner and I thanked God that all that playtime and plus the sugar from the s'mores made him crash. I picked him up and leaned his head on my shoulder so I could use one hand to hold him and the other to open the cellar door that led to the panic room.
Once inside, I laid him down in the small twin sized bed and pulled up the rail to make sure he didn't roll out.
Making sure he was all taken care of, I turned on the baby monitor and took the other one with me so I could hear if he stirs or wakes up at any time. I locked the door to the panic room and walked up the cellar stairs to clean up the mess from earlier.
:.:.:.:.
I switched the tv on to catch the end of the Purge announcement. What a load of shit! Out of all of our dumbass ideas to screw the nation up more, we settle for this? Anybody with a brain could tell this was just to eliminate the over-population scenario and give all those rich fucks their fixes.
I placed my shotgun against the chair and sat down, turning the tv to a movie I had recorded earlier before the announcement even ended. I sighed this was going to be a long night.
I know this is a short chapter, but its going to be a short story. Maybe 3 or 4 chapters long. I hope you are at least remotely intersted so please alert if you want, maybe drop a review possibly:)
