Kili

September 1,1939 day#1

"Darlings, darlings! We need to get up I want to show you something!" Clapping her hands our mother bustled into the room dressed as warmly as possible. "Get up darlings we need to go!" She shook both Fili and I in turn pulling back our covers and exposing us to the cold. "Get up darlings and dress warmly we need to go!" A note of urgency had crept into her voice making me nervous, mom was never nervous. Down stair I could hear my uncle Thorin rushing around the house. You see my family was a family of Jews. We tried to live as peacefully and simply as possible but there were rumors floating around that things were going to change and some our friends and neighbors started to avoid us. I didn't understand what was going on until one night I overheard someone telling mama she should hide. Hen the rumors made sense someone was trying to hurt mama! I knew I was right when mama woke us up this morning but now I'm not quite sure...

Fili

September 4,1939 day#4

"Mama, can we stop? My legs hurt!" Complained my twin 6 year old brother only to be abruptly shushed by my uncle "keep quiet Kili" I said "But..." "Shhhhhhh" we all said to him at the same time I knew something was wrong... Mama said we had to hid and stay silent so I tried my best but my brother... We he was never the silent one out of the two of us. We had been walking in silence when we came across a big road and on the road were these strange people some were dressed in normal clothes like mama and I and some were dressed in strange green outfits with weird pins on them mam didn't see them and when I tried to tell he she said shhhh. So I just stayed quiet. Later I would regret that I had. We walked right out of the heavy bushes and trees onto the road where the men were. Mama froze and he men pulled out big guns and pointed them at mama and uncle Thorin who dropped their bags and raised their hands. Then a man with lots of pins came up and said something to uncle who looked at mama and sighed. Both put out heir hands and motioned for us to do the same another green pin man came up and put weird bracelets on our wrists that were green and heavy and had weird loops combing out of them. Then we were marched in line with the rest of the normal people and told march. Glancing over at Kili I saw that he was scared looking ahead I saw mama had hung her head and looked sad but to my little self I wasn't worried no sirre I was curious about where we going. Little did I know that this was the last time I saw us all together.
