"Mom? Dad? Oniisan?"
I was walking into the house; everything was eerie and too quiet.
"I'm home."
Where is everyone? …. That's when I hear a low noise that sound like a laugh.
"Hello?"
That's when I walked right into what use to be my parents room, now it was a disaster zone. Cloths all over, furniture moved, the blinds ripped along with the bedding. I couldn't step anywhere for fear of stepping on broken glass. I turn around and head to the next place my family might be… the basement. The door down is slightly ajar, I open it enough that I can step through to see if there is anyone there. Its pitch black I couldn't even see two feet in front of me.
"MOM, DAD, GRANT… You down there?"
I had to see if I had to go down or not. Without hearing anything, I walked on down just to check. I quick turn on a light so I could see. When I reached the bottom I knew something was up my whole family was sitting on a couch and had their hands and feet tied.
"Anne, sweetie you have to get out of here, LEAVE WHILE YOU CAN!"
"Shut up woman and be quiet, I guess you want to go first."
And the laugh I had heard before was back… so it was him that I heard laughing, at me! I should get out of here but my family, I have to …. I never finished my thought. Cause with a sickening crash my mother was dead, on the ground.
"Ops, oh well nothing I can do anymore… but your daddy might want to join her... wherever she may be."
And with another swing of his sword my father the one I so dearly loved was…. Gone… I couldn't take it anymore my family was being destroyed by this one man it was me and my brother and I was going to help that was until.. I heard grants words.
"Anne, you need to get out of here get away... Change your last name... Change how you look and get away… learn swordsmanship and protect yourself remember we are always with you… get away when you have the chance now go… don't worry about me. GO!"
And with a hesitant look I turned around heard the fall of my brother and I ran… I can still hear the man's feet hitting the ground coming after me.
I have run for what have seemed like hours but it was more like 20 min. the man still behind me. I started to slow… my feet were heavy with what felt like lead holding me down. Soon enough the man came up and cut a slash through my back… but I keep going….. Then I felt a slash across my back going an opposite direction forming an "X" on my back. The last thing I see is a huge thing of red?
