19. BREAKAWAY
"I know that true to me!" she said "your always there, you say you care. I know that you wanna be mine! Where is your heart?"
She loved Kelly Clarkson songs. She was her biggest fan. Her name was Eliza. Eliza lent off her bed and changed the song to her favourite, Breakaway.
"Nanananana-na, nanananana-na." she started singing.
Eliza didn't seem to notice the noise on the roof, a loud clattering sound. Like footsteps.
She got up and started spinning round, like a kind of dance while singing at the same time. What she didn't know was that the sound on the roof was not what she thought it was. Her dad and a gutter cleaner where cleaning the gutter, or so she thought. What she didn't know was that the gutter cleaner was actually an assassin, paid to kill her dad. She also didn't know that her dad was not a bank car repair man but a secret agent from MI6.
Her dad had just been on a mission to get information about a terrorist group called the MHA. Her father had managed to get a bit of information, but not much. But MHA weren't taking any chances. They needed him dead.
Eliza walked to the window, watching the clouds. Then someone fell off the roof. It was her dad.
She ran to the door. It was locked, there was no way out.
"Help me!" she shouted.
But nobody came, instead there was a knock on the door. She walked over and opened it, it was probably her mother.
There was a single shot, and Eliza lay still, unmoving, never to move again.
Breakaway, breakaway, breakaway… The last words of the song played out. And the stereo went silent.
