This is a true story that happened to my best friend. The names have been changed so no one knows the her or her parents. I hope this says something to you. But not give you something to do. The Accidental Killing I'm 15. My parents and brother, dead. They weren't meant to be dead. It was an accident. But I killed them anyway. I just blew a fuse. My parents hit me one too many times. My brother and his friends raped me too many times. So I took my dad's gun from the safe. I waited for them to come home from work and school. And here's what happened: Mum and dad came home first. I was sitting on the table, like they hate. When they opened the door, they saw me, and they yelled at me. "What the hell is wrong with you Cara?" Dad yelled. "That f**king table was just cleaned last night!" Mum screamed. "You are in huge trouble!" Dad slapped me in the face. Hard. So I put up the gun, "Don't f**king say another word or I blow your brains out, got it?!" They nodded. "I'm sick of you hurting me and letting my brother and his friends f**k me when they get the chance! I want this all to stop! And it stops now!" "But-" my mother said. I pointed the gun at her head and pulled the trigger. The noise and my mother's blood on my face gave me a rush. It felt good at first. "Martha!" Dad yelled as I pointed my gun at him. He gasped as I pulled the trigger. He blood on me didn't give me that same rush and mum's did. "Two down, one to go!" I said as I waited for Brian, my brother, to come home. I heard the door open as he laughed. "Oh, hey sis, how's it..." he stopped, seeing the blood. "What the hell happened?!" he yelled at me. "What's going to happen to you!" I yell as I pull the trigger. It hit him in the shoulder and I shot again to hit his head. It exploded but then I didn't feel so happy. I just thought, I should die too, just because I killed them. I was about to pull the trigger, but the police arrived. They arrested me and took me to the place I didn't care to go to. Child's Paradise. A place to heal. A place I call Hell.
Update! Court With police at my side, and handcuffs on my wrists and ankles, I waited for the jury. I looked back and saw my best friend crying for me. When she looked up at me her eyes were red and puffy, as of her allergies were acting up again. She smiled at me, trying to stay confident. 30 minutes later the jury came out. I was ready for their decision, though I knew it already. I waited for everyone to hush up so I could hear the judge. "Has the jury made their decision?" "We have, Your Honor. We find the defendant guilty of all charges." "You are hereby sentenced to three years in Child's Paradise, with the possibility of parole. Court is dismissed." My best friend Sadie came up to me and said, "I'll write or visit you every week. I promise. And here, take this." She have me her necklace that held her pearl from her boyfriend. "I can't," I started to say. "Just take it. He would have wanted you to have it." By he she meant herself. Alex wouldn't like it. "Thank you!" I hugged her and was walked out by guards and loaded in the car that was to take me to Child's Paradise. It was a long drive. I stared out the window, watching our route. I thought of my "levels" I could get to. Level 10 let me out. Level 8 let me roam around the city. Level 6 and along with the other levels were almost the same. I hoped to get to level 10 really soon.
Update! Child's Paradise When we arrived I was accompanied by guards until I got inside the doors. They took off me cuffs and let me change into some more comfy clothes. I went to the lounge. I looked around. All kids, younger and older were there. Some were 17, others 12, 13. They all committed crimes, I thought. Wow. People came up to me and introduced themselves. I met Cammy, Zara, Robert, Kate, Hayley, and Marty. I hung with them, since they were in their own group. They talked about what they did to get in this hell, as they called it, like me. Kate, 16 and Hayley, 15 both stabbed their neighbor to death and their siblings. Zara, 13 tried to rob a gas station and shot one of the workers. Rob, 13 killed his best friend by shoving his head into the wall too many times. Marty, 12 drowned a kid that bullied him. And Cammy, 17 was blamed for something she didn't do: shoot her best friend in the chest. Didn't kill her friend but she was still but in there. "So what's your story?" Zara asked me. "I shot my parents and brother. They're dead now." "Did you really? And this is what you got? Man, you are lucky!" Marty exclaimed. "Hey, I got the drinks! Who's the newbie?" I heard from behind. I turned around to see the most handsome face I have ever seen. "I'm Cara. I shot my parents and my brother. They're dead now." "Nice name, Cara. I'm Josh, and I killed my parents and my sister." he told my slyly. And that was the start of something new and wrong and right.
Update Time! Josh's POV Meeting Cara "Hey, Josh, can you get us sodas?" Zara asked me. Zara was the leader. "Yeah, sure," I replied. I was the butler of my group. Kate and Hayley were the lazy ones and the twin like ones. Cammy is the bodyguard. And Marty is dating Zara. So he's the the co-leader. And Rob, he's the laid back one. And my best friend. I walked to the cafeteria. I grabbed all the drinks that everyone likes and I had a slight feeling to get another so I did. I asked for a tray to carry all the sodas. I walked back to the lounge. Then I saw her. She had gorgeous black hair that came to her shoulders. I came up behind her. "Hey, I got the drinks! Who's the newbie?" She turned around and I saw her beautiful many different colored eyes that were gray, brown, blue, green, and a bit of red hidden near the middle of the eye. They sparkled as she said, "I'm Cara. I shot my parents and my brother." "Nice name, Cara. I'm Josh and I killed my parents and my sister," I said slyly, thought I was nervous and looking at her made me realise she would hang with us for the rest of the time she would be here. Nothing would be the same.
