for reviewing! Here is the story

DEREK'S POV

I was the first to wake up in the morning. I looked to make sure I didn't wake anyone else up.

I looked up and covered my eyes and looked back down. When I decided to get up, I noticed something might be wrong. Everyone was here and everything looked the same as last night, but I felt like something might go wrong. I, then, looked around to see nothing wrong at all.

While walking down to the river I heard a twig snap. I freaked for a minute, then, looked down noticing that it was me. I shook my head and kept walking. As I got down to the river, got washed up, and walked back up the hill, everyone was awake. I walked up to Julia who looked kind of scared.

"You OK, Jules?" I asked.

"He can call you Jules and I can't, that's messed up..." Yakko said while folding his arms.

She looked at Yakko for a minute. "Really, Yakko?" she questioned him. All Yakko did was shrug and turn around. She turned back at me and spoke up, "I just had a nightmare, but I'm fine."

"Alright then." I said while putting my hand on her shoulder and getting up. I knew what her dream was all about.

I was there watching her with Emily. I usually didn't cry, but I had to. Julia was my sister, she was getting beaten and I couldn't do anything about it. I couldn't do anything because Mark would have killed us. At least, that is what he said.

I remember that day so clearly. That was also the day I found the tunnel in the wall that led outside. We were captured at such a young age that I don't remember everything. I do remember we spent a very long time there though. Finally, Emily escaped, then me. We waited for Julia, but it took her a long time, so we thought we triggered Mark to kill her. Then 3 days after Emily and I escaped, Julia came out with the guard. The guard ran the other way (we never saw the guard again) and well all ran together to somewhere safe. Now that is the place where we live.

EMILY'S POV

I walked over to the river with Dot and Julia and got washed up. While we were all walking back, Julia noticed a crumpled up paper on the floor.

"Guys look!" Julia exclaimed as she opened the letter. There were scrambled up letters that looked like they spelt out different words. The note said "Ew lilw etg ouy".

"Dot, go back and get Derek." I said as Dot obeyed and went back. Derek came running and looked at the note.

"What does it say?" Derek asked.

"I don't know. Julia is decoding it." I said as we both looked at Julia who was staring at the note.

"It says... 'We will get you'?". As Julia said that three men came out of nowhere and started to attack. I punched and kicked and Derek and Julia did too. Derek punched one in the mouth so, the guard was gushing blood from his lip and a little from his nose. Finally, the guards fell down to the ground. Derek thought it would be great to get a stick and stab each guard multiple times in the chest. There was blood on the stick, on the ground, and all over us. We all had to go back into the river to wash up again. Julia was shaking the whole time.

As we walked back to the ground, Julia had calmed down a bit. When we got back, the Warners noticed some stains of blood on our clothes.

"WHAT HAPPENED?!" they all yelled. Then Julia, Derek and I began to tell the story of what just happened by the river.

Wow, I just noticed how sick my mind is... well, who cares, I'm crazy anyway. I'm sorry for torturing you guys with another sorta long chapter... Maybe the next one will be shorter. Also, thank you all so much for all the support you give me! It means sooo much to me! So, to help support me more... PLEASE REVIEW! THANK YOU ALL SOO MUCH!
