As if on instinct, i took out my knife.

"I'm not running, Mom," i said.

"Josie, we need to keep you safe," she said.

"Look, i don't care if you two were barely in my life. That's still my father out there at gunpoint," i said.

She sighs, looking at me, a small chuckle escaping her onyx lips.

"You are as stubborn as he is, aren't ya?" she asked.

I smirked and then look at Derick.

"Derick, you and Miss Emily stay here, keep teh doors locked. Still got the knife my dad gave you?" i asked.

He takes out the knife from his bag.

"Alright," I said.

"Be careful, Josie," Miss Emily said as i ran outside, my mom behind me.

I stood by my father and looked, Liu standing a few feet away.

"I knew it. I knew you were related to them since i first laid eyes on you," he sneered.

"What do you want from us, Liu?!" Mom said.

"You're faces out of the picture. I knew if i just followed around Josie or Derick, that i would realize you two were still alive. I'm stopping The Killer Show today," he said, pointing the gun at me.

I shut my eyes, knowing he was going to shoot when suddenly i hear a shout and then a gun shot.

I open my eyes, seeing I wasn't hurt, but then see Derick staring at the ground in shock. My parents were also in shock as well.

I gulped, looking down, and screaming horror.

Miss Emily had took the bullet for me.

"Nooo!!" i cried, kneeling down next to her. I turned her around, and saw she was shot right in the chest, blood in the corner of ehr mouth.

"J-Josie," she stuttered. 

"I'm here," i said, feeling tears in my eyes.

"I-I'm sorry," she gasped before she was still, her eyes staring at nothing.

She was gone. I felt tears pour down my eyes, and they soon got hotter.

I can feel nothing but anger.

I laid Miss Emily down, and grabbed my knife, and looked at Liu.

Family or not, he killed someone more than important to me.

"You're dead, Liu," i sneeerd and then charged at him, tackling and trying to stab him, but he flipped me over his head, and i landed on my back hard and dropped my knife.

He got up, quickly grabbing it and i felt a stab in my shoulder, making me scream.

Jeff then gets an arm around his neck and holds Liu back as he struggled.

There's no chance. Liu's older. My dad is younger. But Liu is still weak. Even I can tell.

"Derick, Jane, get Josie and all of you get out of here!!" Dad grunted.

Derick had his bags and Mom had mine, and Derick then picked me up, my shoulder hurting a lot and makingme scream a bit.

"Stay calm Josie," he said.

It was then i feel us going down the hall and before i know it, everything fades to black.

The drawing on the side sort of represents Josie witnessing Miss Emily's murder (I know its Jeff, but Josie is like her dad, so whatever).
