REWIND

Emily

I was on my way to school. My mom just told me that me and my older sister Serena, who is 9, are going to the mall to meet Santa! The big man who is so nice to little children like me! I was watching out my window. I saw a man who's face was creepy looking (she is 6 so). He had brown hair that covered slightly of his forehead. H was sitting on the school bench with a duffel bag at his feet. He was watching the busses pull up to the school and the kids go inside. I got off the bus and went inside. My best friend (I want to mention a victim's name or few) Emilie came up to me. "Hi Emily!" She exclaimed. I hugged her. "My mom got this for you!" I said giving her a present. Today was secret Santa would give our best friends gifts! "I got this for you!" Emilie said. It was a box rapped in pink. I smiled. I hugged her again. "You are my bestest friend!" I said.

It was just about 9:00 when we started math. We were working on math problems. My best friend was right next to me. We worked together on them! It was about 9:25 so we had to move onto English. We were about a couple minutes in when we heard gun shots and broken glass. We all ran towards the back of the room as our teacher, Mrs. Soto, turned the lights off. We stayed silent. We can hear the gun shots getting closer. (I can't find out what class she was in so events may be a little different) Mrs. Soto got us into the closet. We heard the door swung open. We can hear Mrs. Soto being kind and gentle to the man or lady. "My students aren't here…." She said. I heard her scream. It caused most of us to cry.

That mean man must have heard us because he came closer to the door of the closet. He swung it open and we started to run. I looked around and saw Olivia, Madeleine, and Jessica being shot down. Then I saw Ben and Chase being shot. I then looked for my best friend…Emilie. I was then shot in my back. "EMILY!" I heard Emilie screamed. She hugged me tight and whispered something. "I will miss you Emily. Your family will miss you. Everyone will miss you." I then blacked out

Emilie

I saw her body lay limp. Her body was becoming pale and her hair was drenched in blood. She looked dead. I hugged her. I ran out and hugged my sisters and family. I walked up to Serena and her parents. "Emily died" I whispered. "Thanks Emilie." They said to me. They walked away in tears. I went back to my family and hugged my little sisters. We went home and I wrote a letter.

Dear Emily,

Everyone misses you. The world is different. I miss you! Your sister hates herself. Your parents are upset. I want you to come home Emily. I won't kill myself but I will join you soon.

Love,

Emilie

I drew a picture with it. I then made a card for her.

"Emily was a beautiful little girl. She had blonde hair and brown eyes. I pray that she comes home. Her favorite color was yellow and she lived like it was her last moment. Her last moment came too fast. I…am proud to be her sister. I loved her and cherished her. She was like an angel sent down from heaven. Now she is back in heaven. She is helping others from the sky. I know Emily left for a reason. I know it's a good reason too…" Serena said. She looked into the casket. I went up and spoke. "Emily was my best friend. She can't be bought. I thought she was invulnerable. Apparently I was wrong. I never thought someone can be so full of evil. I thought that no one could kill others. I knew she was so full of innocence and warmth. I knew it. And now that warmth, that innocence, is gone. I know Emily would have grown up and done great things. It's just in her nature." I walked over to her. "You are my best friend Emily." I slipped in the letter and cards. I smiled at her. I swear I saw her smile.

THE END!

I don't want anyone to forget this tragic event so I made so many version of what would have happened.
