Part 2

Six to be exact. Maria, Juan, & Mario signed up. That's all. We showed them a demonstration, & then got started. 7th period came fast. 10 minuets before the bell rang, we went down to change. My dad was waiting for me & we walked out together.

That's when he told me that my brother, Jessie had been shot. I broke down crying. People were coming out of the gym. Maria saw me crying & came over.

"What happened?" she asked.

"Her brother has been shot," my dad replied.

My dad gave me back my gun.

"I'm going to kill who ever did this. They're going to pay. They're going to die," I said.

My dad checked me out & we went to see him. We didn't know how bad it was, but when we got there, we were relieved. My brother had been shot in the leg. My dad had to go out of town that weekend, so we were on our own.

Lavocoute's brother had his lawyer try to kill me that night.

My dad left 8:00p.m & I went to bed 9:30p.m. Gregorio's lawyer broke into the house 11:00. He poured gasoline everywhere. He even poured it on me. I was too hot to sleep under my covers that night, so I slept under a small blanket. He lit the match in my brother's bedroom then left.

I woke up around 1:00 & felt hot. I couldn't open my eyes & I smelled smoke. I reached for my smoke goggles & put them on. I saw myself on fire. I was able to get up. I walked out of my room & went for the door. It was locked. I started to get really dizzy. I went to the back door & broke it. I couldn't stay on the deck, so I went back inside, even though I knew better. I dropped to my knees & fainted from smoke inhalation in the living room.

I don't really remember what happened after that. I only remember hearing voices. I remember hurting really bad & hearing sirens. I remember hearing Carlos's voice. That's all I remember. I woke up around 2:00pm. My brother, Jessie was their w/me. Walker just walked in. I only had my eyes open a sliver. By Sunday, I could open my eyes all the way.

By Sunday afternoon my dad was their w/me. The doctor decided to tell me & my family how bad the burns were. My burns were only in the 2nd degree level. He said that the only way to heal the burns is by whirlpool therapy. He also said that it might be painful. He said that I could have my mother w/me if I wanted.

My dad told him that my mother was dead.
