Sorry this is so short! And that it took so long to update, ugh.. school has been keeping me incredibly occupied.. And I got the game The Last of Us for my birthday.. Finished it.. Cried. And I thought it would be a good idea to look up fandom stuff yesterday, ya know.. I think I'm ready..

*Sees one picture of it that gives the feels*

Me: NOPENPOENOPE my body is not ready.. Nope.. Maybe another day.. In a month or so..

Okay, just some things you should know:

Ava is 5 years old

Alex is about 13 or so

Mal and Natara are married (of course)

And they still work at the SFPD

Enjoy!


She can smell the ashes in the air outside, along with the smell of fumes and the sound of chaos. She is awaken by the sound of it. Clenching her blankets tight, and her teddy tighter, she walks out of her room to search for protection from her mother. Ava began to tremble as her panic began to sink in. The pounding on her front door made her flinch with every violent bang as the door threaten to shatter into splinters of wood.

"Ava, RUN!" Yells her mother, tears welling in her eyes as she tries her best to reduce the impact of the banging.

"Ava! Quick!" She hears the harsh whisper of her older brother, tugging at her arm. They dash to their parent's bedroom window, where Ava can now see the outside world. Of soldiers rounding up men and threatening the rest of their families. She hears gunshots, but thankfully doesn't find the source of them.

"Ava, you need to jump!" Whispers Alex harshly. "Kai and Amy are down there ready to catch you, come on!" He positions himself to sit you on the windowsill.

"What about mommy?" She asks, her nerves causing tears to well.

"We'll see you soon, okay? I promise.." He hugs her tight as she does the same.

"No! Get away!" They hear their mother's screams as she tries to fend of the soldiers who grapple her.

"Now!" He whispers and boosts Ava to the window, and lo and behold, Amy and Kai are below, looking around nervously to see if the coast is clear.

"I love you." She whispers to her older brother, still clutching her teddy so close, the thread threatens to rip off.

"I love you too.."

She jumps.


Sorry it's short :( more to come! :D
