Chapter 1
It was a normal Monday at school then home, to take my depression and anxiety medicine and stay in my room in the basement. When I woke up in the morning I thought it was the same thing all over again. I went up stair for breakfast when I went into the kitchen no one was there which was odd, but I just grabbed a piece of bread and ran out the door because I was running late after all. I ran out the door and ran a few blocks and then I turned a corner. I hit a guy head on when I turned the corner and I guess he was turning the corner too and didn't know anyone was there like I did. We both fell, our books scattered on the concrete sidewalk my bread fell out of my mouth. When I looked at the guy I got butterflies in my stomach. Then I noticed that the guy also had bread in his mouth, I guess he was running late like me. The guy got up and so did I he had black shine hair, sea blue eyes and two piercings on the right side of his lip.
"Sorry" I said
"What" he said
"Um, I told you sorry" I said
"Oh, OK" he said
What a jerk all he said was "oh, OK" is that really all he has to say. I grabbed my books and walked away. I soon got to school minutes later.
"Where is it?" a mysterious voice said from behind me. "Where is it" the voice said again
I looked behind me to see to my surprise my use to be friend Carrie was talking to me.
"What happened to not talking to me Carrie" I said
"It not my fault you are some depressed, suicidal geek"
"You forget Freak" I said
"Whatever, wheres my science project" she said
"Our, our science project?" I said
"What ever, Where is it" she said
"I have it, don't worry" I said.
Carrie walked away in anger and snobby. I put my books into my locker and noticed my drawing notebook was gone, then I remembered the corner guy. I went to Science class with the science project I worked hard on while Carrie got her nails and hair done all the time. I tried to get my mind off of the corner guy and how my notebook is probably with him or on the corner still. The science project was where you make a wind mill and if it worked the way Mr. Johnson wanted it to you got an A+. Well Carrie and I got an A+ like I usual get. Classes passed by and about around lunch the announcement happened "There will be no school for the rest of the day you may leave now". It was odd, but I left and went to the corner to see if my notebook was there, but it wasn't so I went home.
"Mom, I'm home" I yelled, but no one answered so I knocked on my parents bedroom door. "Mom" I said, no answer. "Mom" I said opening her door to see her and dad eating my little sister Kayla. I screamed "Mom, Dad what are you doing". They looked up at me and groaned at me until they ran into a charge. I ran into the kitchen and they ran after me "MOM DAD PLEASE STOP" I yelled. My mom ran at me and almost bit me and then my dad ran at me probably trying to get a bite of me himself. I ran into my dads office and searched for the keys to the gun cabinet on my dads desk where he usually kept them, I found them under a bunch of dads work papers and a birth certificate when I heard someone coming. I hurried and got one of the guns as my dad got into the room. "DAD STOP, Please Dad Dad please stop DADDY" I cried. I shot him until I ran out of bullets. I tried to open the bullet drawer, but it was locked. I remembered that they kept the keys in moms sock drawer. I ran out of the room into the kitchen, but mom was blocking the path to exit the kitchen to the hall of her and dads room. I grabbed a knife as she ran at me. I stabbed her and stabbed her until she stopped moving. I was soaked in her blood everywhere. My clothes were covered in her blood. My hands ,my arms had blood ,even my face had blood on it. I was crying so hard now when my sister crawled into the kitchen. "NO" I cried I held her face as she groaned at me then I stabbed her until she stopped. I opened the front door to see people in the street eating each other and house and cars on fire, then when I looked up at Atlanta to see it was on fire and a plane had crashed into one of the many sky scrapers. I closed the front door and grabbed my depression medicine and packed some clothes, water, food, my cat Simba, and a picture of my family. I walked out the back door and didn't look back.
