Candace hops on the bus, and Percy loads the cases in. She chose the very last seat in the back. She loved to sit there.
They were halfway to Percy's house when a tragedy happened.
Two armed men got into the bus and hostage everyone. Percy told Candace to crawl inside the small compartment below the seat so that she is safe.
The driver tells the armed men something like, "Just get what ever you want, people don't need to be harmed, do they…?" before one of them tells him "Oh yes they do," and shoots him. On the head. People were now backing up. Shoot here, there, everywhere. Candace watched in horror as the men killed her father. You must know how painful it is to see your own father get killed before your very eyes. The men didn't (thankfully) notice the little girl. He picked Phineas up. Phineas started to cry. "I'll keep this child, my daughter was oh-so ever lonely to be alone," said the man harshly. They left without another word.
Candace doubted whether she will go out now that the men are gone, or wait for the police to come. She was crying silently. She wormed out the compartment. How dreadful! For she was alone to live. She hugged her father. "Daddy! Don't leave me alone," she said. It was filled with dead people every where. She went out the bus (it was steady now) and wondered where she will go, now that she is all alone.
