Dont look Away
MY CHOICE TO END IT
Erin and I were walking to our last class of the day when we heard the news blaring from the Tv. ******** "Sources say, they felt the explosion before hearing it. Such was the force of the explosion, it rocked the foundations of every house in a one mile radius. Only seven months after the murder of principal Higgs and the mysterious disappearance of student Rebecca Silver, the school was attacked by an unknown bomber. Luckily, the shut down for the rest of the day when the school system decided it was time to disinfect the school due to a flu outbreak. No word has yet been received of victims. But the fires caused by the massive explosion are still blazing wildly while firefighters fight to gain control. I'm Catherine Gossam, reporting to you live from the wreckage of Richfield High School." ******** I couldn't help it. I stared at the screen waiting and watching for any signs of people hurt or dead. Erin sat me down and held me close as the tears came rolling down my cheeks. ###### "I can't do this anymore. Erin, take me someplace I can learn to fight. I'm tired of hiding from the terrorist who haunts my every day." ####### "What are you talking about Alexia?" He stared into my eyes. It was then I knew my choice to fight would cost me but be worth it in the end. ####### "I will tell you later." I got up with his hand in mine as he led me to the place where I became warrior at heart. Little did I know that in a few months, I would be running for my life with five boys in tow who I only knew from magazines.
