She stared down the barrel of the gun and shook. She would see Steve soon. She smiled at the thought. She suddenly felt a strong will to survive. She pressed herself up against the wall and then felt the gun in her pants. She reached a hand around behind her as her dad smiled and pulled the trigger. It clicked, she laughed and smiled at him. He pulled the trigger again and again and it only clicked. She laughed and pulled her gun out.
"You think it's all over? Now it is," she said raising the gun.
His face changed from smiling to sadness as she pulled the trigger.
BANG
she looked at the face of a man whom she loathed. She shot him right between the eyes. Blood trickled down his face and his eyes rolled into the back of his head. She scooted past his dead body and toward Steve's. she kissed his forehead gently. She waded back to the steps and carefully climbed up them. She opened the door and walked slowly out to the living room where she had left Steve's things. She looked at his bag and picked up his old switch blade. She shoved it into her pocket, and then grabbed her backpack. She looked out the window things had started to clear up. She sat out on the front porch. Water and started to go down the hill. Finally she felt the house lurch and sway. She got up and ran out into the knee deep water. She turned and saw the house crumple in on itself. She smirked.
"Good riddance to bad rubbish," she said.
She then walked to the edge of the woods and climbed up into a tree. She sat there and looked out over the barren wasteland that had once been so beautiful. She looked toward the stables and saw that they were still standing. She smiled she always did like horses.
She wondered if she should go back. She decided not to. She would just hitch hike her way to Ohio. Maybe she'll find peace there? She didn't know.
Steve. He was dead. The gang would be upset. Maybe it was just better that they presume she was dead too. She thought about killing herself, but she didn't have a weapon. She had the knife and gun, but those were Steve's and she didn't want to dirty them with such impure actions. The sun suddenly came through the clouds. She
sighed and leaned back against the tree. She shut her eyes and dozed off. She would leave after the water and gone down.
Hey guys its not over yet!
