This is gip-k. I need to tell you about

The Jackson family tragedie. We'll start by looking at

Robin Jackson's side of the story. When it says, "Mary

Jackson's side of the story, we'll be look'in at things

her way. Got it? O.K. Let me tell you the real story.



Robin Jackson's side of the story.



"Face it Johnny, we can't afford to support these kids."

I heard my mother, Sarah, say.



"I know Sarah, but we just can't find any way to take care

of this." my father Johnny answered.



"Johnny, I know this sounds harsh, but since we don't have

enough money to send them to milltary school, we have to-"

my mom was cut off by my dad's answer.

"I know, you told me before, we have to kill them."



I was so startled I almost screamed like a girl. What in

the Devil possesed my mom to come up with that! I leaned

on the wall til I had slumped down to the floor.

Kill them. KILL THEM! the words rang in my small head.

"I have to tell Mary!" I whispered to myself. I didn't wan't

my parents to hear me. They could have caught me and killed

me right then.

Mary Jackson's side of the story.

I could have died right then because I laughed so hard at

my brother's silly story.



"That is one of the funniest stories you have ever told me.

Oh no! Maybe the'll kill us like the witch tried to kill

Hansel and Gretel! Haa ha ha! He he he!" I said,

laughing.

"You wouldn't laugh if you heard them say it with your own

ears! Look how much you laughed! Now tears are coming from

eyes! You've turned into a cry baby! Cry baby, cry baby,

you're a little, teeny cry baby. She can't stop being a baby

and crying!" my brother said.



I hate it when he sings that silly song. I still thought he

dreamed it when he said that he heard mom and daddy planning

to kill us. I believed he was pulling my leg. The next day I

would soon find out. After we came home from school the next

day, I saw dad taking our beds out of our room.

"Why are you taking our beds out of the room?" I asked him

curiously.

"Uhhh, well, I was taking them out temporarely. I wanted to

give the room a new paint job."

"Oh, so that's why." I said.

Robin and I went to eat lunch. I casually looked out of the

window, and to my surprise, there were are beds. And every-

thing else from our room, out on the front yard, under a banner

that said "Yard Sale." Everything was priced and ready to be

sold.

Robin Jackson's side of the story



"Look, Robin." my sister said, pointing at the window. "I

thought dad said he was giving the room a new paint job.

Why would he lie?"

"I haven't got any idea. At all." I said.

Then mother called our names.

"Robin! Mary! Would you please come! Hurry!" she called.



We went into the the room where she was in. It was our

bedroom.

"Why did daddy sell our stuff? Why? Why!!!" Mary demanded.

"Yeah, why?" I added.

"Cause we're gonna buy you new stuff. Wait here. Lemme go

get the picture of them." she answered.

We trusted her. Then when she left Dad came in. He was

wearing some goggles and holding a drill and hammer.

He took the nails out of our bedroom door and removed

it. Then, he left. Me and Mary looked at eachother and

shrugged. Dad came back with a peace of wall about the

size of the door and some wood glue. He glued the piece

of wall in. We couldn't see him anymore. But we heard

the sound of nails being drilled in.



HE LOCKED US IN!



My parents always seemed to be unhappy. They always said

they wished they could "soothe there want for the little

little things that made life so precious." But it looks

like they don't care for the "little people who make life

more fun!" US! US! How could they do this! They just wanted

to do this to be richer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They wanted to make life so "affordable!"



"Let us out! Please! Let us out! Please! Help! Someone

help! Anybody! Help us! PLEEEEEEASE!!!!!!!!!!" my sister's

voice bombarded my thoughts.



She banged on the wall with all her might and started to sob.

What would happen to us now?





Mary Jackson's side of the story

The only reason you know this experience is because we're

writing it in Robin's new school notebook. Everyone will

know about the kids with the lousy parents. How could

they do this! They are sick parents. Even if they let

us out my relationship with them would never be the same.

That first day we went without dinner. We waited in that

room, hoping they would change their minds.

They didn't.



I wondered what would happen. I was horrified. This was

the worst day of my life. They didn't even let us come

out to use the bathroom. They just ignored us and let

us wet our pants and soak the floor. For that, the room

was dirty and smelly. My hygeine was horrible. I'm sure

my poor brother's was the same. We screamed for dear

life and cried for mercy. I'm sure our parents heard

us good and loud and just decided to ignore our constant

flow of tears. They hated us and wanted no part in working

hard and enduring the unhappiness til they had enough

money to help the family. My brother seemed very

uncomfortable as he wacthed me fall to the ground.

I fell because I couldn't take staying awake anymore.

I just simply collapsed. I remember that night before

I did I heard my parents fixing dinner. I was oh, so

hungry. Besides, this all happened so rapidly but I

didn't even have time to eat lunch after school.

I'd never have to attend school again, but it was better

to attend then be dead, if you know what I mean.



Robin Jackson's side of the story

The second morning we woke up. Getting hungrier and

starving. I felt like every muscle in my body was

twisted and in worst shape than ever. I felt so

uncomfortable I could have cried. When I was

finally on my feet I stretched and stretched. I

wish I could have done it while sitting on a soft

bed with an average comfort mattress. Well, anyhow,

I felt my back snap and crack 5 times. Yes, 5 times

people! That felt real good after sleeping on the

ground. Standing up is better than that! Someone

with plenty of comfort would have said that feeling

your back crack was nothing. However, someone with

barely any at all would say it's like heaven. Like

biting into a rich, chocolate, devil's cake brownie.

My sister finally woke up. "Ooooh, ouch, aaahhh, ouch,

oooh, ah!" she said, getting up in pain. When she

was finally on her feet she... "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She screamed so loud that if we were in a funny world

it would have made the baby cry cause it was deaf,

make the birds fly off their branches, make the

rooster croak at 11:00, make all the kids peee in,

their pants, and make the grown up's eyes widen and

make them all say: "Huh?"

Well, I was worried then. I asked her if she was

alright. She was biting her upper lip with her eyes

wide, wide open. And she finally, without turning

to look at me, nodded. She didn't say a word. What

if she was in shock? What if she was about to

collapse and never get up? What if she was slowly

falling into a comma. But why was she fading so

soon? What if... I panicked. I simply grabbed her

waist and shook her up real good.

"MARY! SNAP OUT OF IT!!!!!!!" I screamed.



"Stop it! Get your hands off me! What are you doing?

ROBIN!!!" she screamed. I took my hands off her.



"Geeze! Get a hold of yourself! I only looked like

that because I felt like every bone in my body was

broken. What are you trying to do? Really brake them!"

she said angrilly.



"I'm sorry. I thought you were going into a comma

when I saw that funny look on your face."

I answered sheepishly.

"Robin, try not to be silly at a time like this. If you

ever see me really going into a comma, don't try and

stop me." my sister replied.

"But why? Why would you ask me to do that to you? Now

it's your turn to be silly. You're my sister." I said

with curiousity in my eye.

"Because, being asleep while it all happens is better

than being awake in all the tourment." she answered

sadly.

She turned her back to me and crossed her arms.

Mary Jackson's side of the story

I could almost feel my brother's emotion change

even though I had my back turned to him.

"Don't talk like that. Someone will find us.

we'll scream at the top of our lungs when

our doorbell rings. That will notify the

person who comes to our home that we're

in here. Then, we just wait and see what

kind of excuse they have when their guests

discover the noise." Robin said mischievesly.

"Haven't you heard the statement: "Oh. Uh,

that's only the television." I answered.

"Oh, yeah, right. Wait a sec! If they say

that, we just yell: "NO IT AIN'T!" Robin

said, as the idea popped into his mind.

"What if by the time a guest appears at

the door, our parents are asleep, or at

work, or even not ready to answer it?

What if when a guest appears, we don't

have enough energy to yell loud enough?

What about those options, Robin?"I asked

him, expecting an answer.

Robin looked very thoughtful. He just leaned

against the wall until he slumped to the

floor. He let out a huge sigh, and started

to weep. This is the first time I remember

seeing him cry like this.

"I want my lunch! I want my shower!

HELLO! I need to use the restroom!" He

bellowed.

Amazingly there was an answer. I heard the

sound of an electric saw. I stepped back

as the piece of wall crashed to the ground.

WE WERE FREE!

Robin Jackson's side of the story

There was my mother! She was holding the saw!



"You can come out now." she said flatly.

My sister burst out of the room with

great speed! She had a great leap in her

steps! She ran til she got to the bathroom.

I was so excited I could barely stand! I

felt like I was choking on the joy that

filled my body. I quickly stepped out

of the room. I looked, and there was

lunch, prepared and ready! I walked

up to the lunch tray to grab a plate.

To my surprise, my dad intercepted me.

"What got into me! I didn't mean to let

them out!" she said, seeming to be afraid

that I would eat.

My sister came out of the restroom. She hoped

that she too could grab a quick bite.

"What's going on? Is this some kind of crazy,

sick, "I wanted to get your hopes up

prank?" she asked angrilly.

"I guess it is." my mom answered.



All of the sudden, me and my sister burst

into tears all at once and spoke up,

begging our parents to not put us back

in.

"Quiet! You don't tell me what to do you

little children! I know this is

unbelievable, but we want to put you back

in." mother said.



She grabbed my sister by the arms and my dad

grabbed me by my right ear.

They dragged us right back to the room.

We both sobbed as we saw the piece of

wall being glued n' nailed in.

Once they were done we banged on the wall.

"You hate us! You're just lousy parents! We

need food! We may have to use the restroom!

We smell sick! We need a shower! We're so

uncomfortable! Give us our beds! We're

starting to get very tired! Let us out!"

we demanded in unison.

We were getting sick about this. My sister

and I were starting to get ill.



We were dying!

Mary Jackson's side of the story

"Shut up in there!" our dad yelled, knocking on

our door.

I was really starting to feel depressed. And I

thought being teased by Robin was depressing.

I smelled my armpit.

"Yuck! Eew, I feel disgusting." I said in disgust.



"Yeah, a shower would be the last thing i'd take

before I died. I can't even do that." my brother

said.

"I would-I-I, I, I would too." I said, starting to

sob.

Now we were both crying.

"I JUST CAN'T HOLD IT ANYMORE!!!!!" my brother

screamed.

He turned his back to me and went real close

to the wall. He'd just peeed on the ground.



"Eeew! YUCK!" he said.

I closed my nose. I watched in horror. My

brother collapsed. I almost did myself, but

I stopped myself and shook my head to help

me stay awake.



That next morning, we woke up as we always

did. Let me tell you about the terrible mood

we had. We were missing five things.

1: We had almost starved



2: We didn't know what it felt like to be

comfortable

3: Our fun was destroyed

4: We had no one to talk to, practically

5: We were dirtier than a beaver's teeth

The only thing we had was energy, but that

wasn't enough. A sim needs all of the above

to feel good. I'm in a terrible mood right

now. Probably four red. If you ask me, I

think I should quit writing about my pain

in this stupid notebook. Too bad I can't.

If I don't, I won't be able to avenge my

death. And you have no idea how much I want

to.

Robin's side of the story

You heard her folks. She needs to avenge her

tourmenting death. Me, I have a certain kind

of thirst for revenge. I as thirsty for it as

the greek shepherd who ran and won the olmpic

marthon must have been thirsty for water. I

am as tired as him in a way. I am tired of

this sick experience. Wow, well, are parents

are going to work. I heard the beep. What

will they come home with today? Things they

want? They definetly don't want anymore kids,

that's for sure. Later...



Dad started coming in our room. He built a small

room inside of our room. He and mom pushed

us in, they covered it up. We soon found our

selves inside a small place just a bit bigger

than the restroom. I didn't know why they did

it, at first. Boring. Boring. Boring. That's

what i'd call this room, boring. If you ask

me, I think that it's impossible for you readers

to even try and understand what we're going

through. More cramped, uncomfortable. boring.

places. No food to eat. No showers. Can you

even visualize. HEAVEN'S NO! You can't imagine

the pain. I hear a soft "THUMP."

My sister had just collapsed. I grabbed my head

real hard and shook it. I was getting tired

myself. It was my turn to collapse. I fell

asleep, and I know I fell to the ground.

Mary Jackson's side of the story



I woke up just like I always woke up. I

angrilly stamped my feet and then crossed

my arms. I then started sobbing. It was so

painful! My brother was still asleep. I must

have slept for a long time to feel so bad.

About an hour later my brother awoke. He

angrilly stamped his feet and sobbed as I

did. That's what we call "waking up in the

morning."

"This sucks!!!" Robin shouted at the top of

his voice.

I ofcourse was thinking the same thing. I

was sick of this. I had no life. It was

crazy! It's like a nightmare where you

and your brother are trapped in the

"ghost dungeon" where all you do is wait

to die. You have no parents and the only

ones who take "care" of you are sick monsters.

They just beat you, tourment you, and push

you around. Not only that, but they are

super bossy! I started to cry. Today I

will be scratching and banging at the

door begging to be let out of here! For

once, I felt lonely. The day gets eaten

up slowly around here, doesn't it? I wish

days would go by quicker. I actually even

miss school! Hey, slow, or not, mom and

dad's carpool is finally here. What will

they bring home today, a "Deadly Kid

Squisher?" I just have no idea! Yesterday

they had enough money to cramp us in this

tiny space, now, what will they do next?



Robin's side of the story

My sister's strenght looks like it being

demented quicker than mine. I'm just trying

to find out who goes first. I started crying.



"I-I, Robin? I-I-I. I belive I, I think I am

going. I'm dying Robin." Mary said, coughing

out tears every second.

I didn't know what to say or do. I was just

plain suprised. I couldn't take it any more.

I turned my back to her and said,

"I don't think you're going today, Mary. None

of us are going to go. It won't be now, it

just won't be."



I tryed hard not to cry. Then I just burst

into tears. I couldn't hold them in any

longer. My sister grabbed me and hugged me.

She wouldn't let go.

"I hope you're right. Boy do I hope you're

right!" she said, still hugging me.

Just as she finally realeased me, I heard

the sound of a carpool coming in. Mary

gasped in horror. Neither of us knew what

they were going to do.



Mary's side of the story

"Let's check and see if the're still alive."

I heard daddy say.



I cramed into a small corner of the room. Robin

I heard dad getting the saw. he turned it on

and sawed out part of the wall. He sawed just

inches away from Robin's shoulder. He quickly

scanned the room.

"Gotcha! Still alive, huh? Sarah! Give me the

fireplace installation kit! Move outta the way

kids." dad said.

We slowly moved away and held on tightly to

eachother. Mother kept coming back and forth

til she had given him all the pieces for the

fireplace.

"If every thing goes like planned, you kids

will have a fireplace in about four, short,

hours." dad said smiling.



Robin's side of the story

We watched as dad built the fireplace. We

gave him a few dirty looks and glared at

him, but other than that, we kept our

mouths shut. It took him five, long,

terrible hours to build that fireplace.

"You're all set, kids! Sarah, bring the

firewood!" dad said.

Mom brought the firewood. She also lit

the fire. Dad left the room. Mom also

left. A few minutes later, dad came back

a dollhouse. He placed it on the left side

of the fire place. He then recovered the

little room.

"Yeah! The room looks much better! Not only

that, but we have something to play with!"

I said happily.





That was the only thing I cared about.

Mary Jackson's side of the story

I didn't have the time to be as excited

as Robin. I was so empty inside. I needed

victuals(food) quick, or I was rat bait.

I had to find something to eat. I had no

food in my body and my energy was fading.

I didn't tell Robin, I was afraid i'd upset

him like last time. I'm about to die. I

don't have much time left. When my energy

is gone-

"FIRE!!!!! FIRE!!!! HELP! HELP!" Robin's

panicked voice interupted my thoughts.

I flipped around and my eyes widened. I

gasped in horror.

"OH MY GOD! WE'RE GONNA BURN!!! AAAAAAAAA-

HHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! OH MY GOD!!!" I jumped

up an-

Robin's side of the story

I wacthed in horror as the flames angrilly

glared at me. I glanced at Mary. She

dropped the notebook. Grabbing her heart

she said:

"Unhhh."

She collapsed. I ran to her and grabbed her.

Her last words were:

"This is my last drop of energy. Goodbye.

Robin."

"NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!" I screamed.
