Angels and Princesses
|
The Break-in On the night of January 20th, 2010, I, Angel, was reading The Mountains and Valleys. Don’t be fooled by the title, it’s a fictional book. It is by my favorite author Raven Harper. She really looks like a raven when the light was right. When I finally arrived at my favorite part, I heard a piercing shriek coming from Princess’s room. We call her princess because that’s how she acts, like a princess. When I heard the shriek I ran in to her room. A person dressed in completely in black was crawling in through her bedroom. She was stumbling over piles of clothes and magazines. Her teeth were chattering. The man, or so we thought it was a man, had a knife in his hand. I told her to run into the living room and call the police. I dashed into the bathroom and grabbed the toilet plunger. The next I know, I’m lying on the floor with a knife in my back. The police come inside to see a female attempting to carry a priceless urn out and bedroom window and me lying on the upstairs’ bathroom floor. I was suffering there on that floor. An ambulance came two minutes later. By the time the ambulance got to our house there was a pool of blood lying under my cold, almost dead body. The ambulance almost arrived too late to the emergency room. They pulled the knife out of my back. Blood started gushing out my back. They stitched my back where the stabbing had been. I had to get a blood transfusion as soon as possible. While I was resting in my room in the hospital, the police officer entered my hospital room with very bad news. “I am sorry to say Ma’am, the female, who stabbed you and stole your father’s urn, got away. I am sorry to say that Ma’am.” Whispered the police officer before he left me to rest. Princess had a worried look on her face. A many months later, when I finally got out of the hospital, the officer decided for us that we had to move because we were not safe in California. We had to move to Alaska. The Move When I was well enough to move, we packed up our possessions and hit the road. It was a long way to Alaska from California. We drove all the way to Alaska. It took about five days to drive to Alaska. It was a hard transition for the weather. We never lived in a place that wasn’t warm. We’ve only lived in places like South America, California, and Florida. Princess had taken bikinis, and flip-flops, and other summer clothes. The day we would get there I knew she would freeze. She would not like the change of weather. She was going to drive first, but before we even left her foot slipped of the brake and onto the gas. She crashed into a tree. I had to drive; I think she was a little to tired to drive at the moment. She did stay up all night with me last night at the hospital After three hours of me driving my back felt like I was getting stabbed all over again. I slammed on the gas without even thinking about what I was doing. The little plum colored car in front of us was completely flattened. I slammed my foot on the brakes, got out, and ran back to see what I had just done. The man in the car was hanging half-way out the windshield . I grabbed Princess’s phone out of the truck to call the police. Luckily we had enough money at the time to pay for the damage I had done. I felt horrible about what had just happened. I had never been in a car accident.
