Hey guys, I'm sorry I took a really massive break. Now that I have softball, violin, and school, I don't have as much time to write my stories like I did before. Anyway, there are going to be a shit ton of shockers in the next few chapters. Anyway enjoy!

Mei's POV:

I remembered the look in his eyes

The moment he walked out the door

Unsure he was going to come back

In a silk tailored suit

Or a fitted body bag of his own.

And now I sit here

My eyes only focused on the flames.

I planned to see the world

To fall through the sky with no doubt of dying

But I was wrong

I'm only human.

We're only human.

I wrapped my hands around my belly

My fear so strong it feels as if dawn's aware of it herlself

Dawn doesn't like that

Not one bit.

I felt a massive stabbing pain in my lower abdomen as blood began to leak. But what was I to do?

Scream?

Cry?

I held screaming upstairs as gunfire rang out.

But that was okay.

And I am okay.

Everything was going to be okay.

He grabbed my hair and dragged me across the large water filled floor. My screaming inaudible due to the rag stuffed down my mouth.

My arms were limp.

My legs dangling as he carried me away.

All of the energy I had left dedicated to griping the rosary that rested around my neck.

My god was good.

He was loving and kind.

He was merciful and forgiving.

He loved me enough to show me that no matter what

It was going to be okay.

My head dropped back as I was lifted high; then dropped.

The thick metal hook impaling me instantly.

My hand still griping onto my only faith.

It was too much shock

Too much blood that spurted everywhere.

My breathing instantly stopped

And I felt so weightless

I thought about Tommy.

Praying I would live long enough to see him one last time

To brush my lips against his

To hold his hand and daydream about the worlds above

I felt my abdomen begin to push itself

It was time

"And you still clutch that stupid necklace thinking someone will save you? You're a pathetic hypocrite."

I stared into his soulless eyes; the hatred in them overbearing and all too real

"m-my g-g-god is good. My god is loving and kind. M-my god is merciful"

He grew even angrier and stepped closer to me

"Well where's your god now hmm? Because it seems he abandoned you and left you for dead. The same way he let that overgrown retard take my father! He let him die! He let that stupid animal slaughter my father in the lord's very house! God is fake. He's a fool who relies on faith! And now I'm gonna show you how stupid you are for believing him!

It seemed as if the running upstairs became louder, and just when I had lost hope, that one weak spot in the floor above us crashed down. Causing another man from above to fall on top of him and knock them both down onto the water covered cement floor.

I smiled slightly as all the feeling in my body was drained out of me. My body shutting down as my womb pleaded to keep going.

"MEI! MEI PLEASE, PLEASE DON'T BE DEAD MEI PLEASE!"

I was unable to talk, so I ripped the rosary off of my neck with the rest of the energy I had left and through it against the knives hanging on the rack above the counter, causing them to chime as my body fell completely limp.

I was now certain there wasn't much time.

Tommy's POV:

I held her ever so gently.

Her body limp and practically lifeless

I cradled her in my arms

Running up the stairs as fast as possible as Hoyt tended to mama's injuries

I ran to the bathroom.

Placing her in the bathtub and turning on the bathwater to wash off the blood.

With a sewing needle in my hand

I sat in the dirty claw foot tub

Dabbing a soft rag over her body.

"Tommy?"

She opened her lids the slightest bit

Causing me to sob even harder, her hands reaching to dry my tears

I nodded my head slowly trying to keep it together; holding her against me.

Rocking her in my arms as I planted kisses on her forehead.

"Will you see the stars with me?"

Her voice was a raspy barely audible whisper.

Her eyes unafraid, so fearless and brave.

"It would be an honor."

She smiled her pretty white smile as she intertwined her hand with mine.

Her head began to drop and her eyelids seemed to have become even heavier. The hook that had pierced her heart had pierced mine too. She drifted away, and I felt myself screaming.

All I ever wanted was to love her.

To wake up right next to her and to kiss her goodnight.

To hold her and little dawn in my arms.

I shook her.

Screamed her name a countless amount of times.

And that was when I realized she wasn't coming back

I grabbed the pistol.

Holding her close in my arms as tears began to pour down my cheeks.

I looked at her pretty porcelain like face.

She was like a beautiful little china doll.

My beautiful little china doll.

I placed the pistol to my head.

Before kissing my beautiful china doll goodnight

And with the push of a trigger, everything began to fade away.
