My new chapter. I know it's short.
An hour later I woke up again, because I heard this noise coming from outside the house. Very loud …
I got out of bed and walked towards the window. People... There were people I had never seen before in our village (and here, everybody knows everybody). Fighting with the guards. There was a huge hole in the wall. Unbelievable. All these years, we lived locked away from the outside world…and then, when the wall should protect you from intruders, it fails….
Appi entered the room, telling me I had to rush towards the basement. He said I didn't have to worry, the guards would take care of everything. I heard some one scream outside, and then I noticed the smell of…something burning. As I left the room, I looked through the window one more time. Sammy's house was on fire. Al I could do was go downstairs and hope everything was going to be alright and that everybody was unharmed.
It was dark in the basement, but I was happy to see we were all there, except for Appi, who was outside helping the guards to fight the intruders. I'm worried: what if something happens to him? He has worked for my family for ...I don't know how long, he was here long before i was born. He's a part of our family.
Dina told us to be quiet. I can't speak anyway, I 'm too frightened. What if they find us? What if they set our house on fire, with us inside it? What if Sammy is…dead? I don't know if anybody was in there when they…
No… No…They are such nice people …They can't be dead. They can't be dead!!!
Bang krshhh
What was that? It sounded like the door being…
Tic tic
Footsteps. Coming this way. Please, don't find us.
Klang krrac kling
That is definitely the sound of …someone destroying our living room.
Kling
That was the antique vase…
Reminds me of the time Mom and Dad had to go to Mr. Whitmore's house on Moira's day of and they asked this teenage girl to baby-sit…( I didn't do anything! She left us alone and Rory and Nathan started playing soccer in the living room…)
Bang
It sounds like they are fighting.
There saying something… I can't understand what they're saying…
More footsteps coming in our direction.
"How can you do this to me? I'm your brother…"
Is that… Appi?
"I have no choice, and you know that…If I don't follow his orders, he'll kill my family."
"You had a choice, like .."
"You? You were just lucky they took you with them when they…"
I can't hear it anymore. There's a lot of noise coming from outside. They are coming this way…
I didn't know Appi had a brother. Actually, I don't know anything about most people's life before they moved to our village. Nobody wants to talk about it. More secrets… I'm starting to think it would be better to move to the city, it seems a lot safer to live there, and maybe everybody will be honest there..
"Pangesh? Are they in there"?
Oh no.
"No. Nobody. The place is empty."
(Appi to Pangesh)"Thanks, Pangesh."
"Just go."
( from outside)"Are you sure? According to the boss the children must be in there somewhere…"
Children? They're after us?
"I told you there's nobody in here. Why don't we just go now ?We already have two of their friends…"
"He wanted the children and Whitmore, not that doctor Sweet and that French…thing."
They've got Sammy's father? Oh no…Well, at least I now know they aren't dead…
They can have Mole.
Why are they after us? Mr. Whitmore I can understand, but…us? And why the doctor and Mole…
"We have to go. The guards have already captured half of our men…There's no time to look for them."
I'm afraid that's all. It can take a while for me to update this, because I have to go back to school next week, and I'm working on the next chapter of my crossover now, but as soon as I have another 150 words, I'll start working on this story again.
Thanks for reading!
