• tab There is a fire in a small black town. White people were burning with torches, killing and massacring all the blacks.
    tab Scream! A woman is forced down on the dry, coarse dirt bruising her knees. She cried heavily, sobbing, "PLEASE let go of my baby!!!" She begged the white men, "PLEASE!!!"
    tab The little boy reaching his teens had been screaming and crying as the men kicked him around.
    tab Click. Aimed at the head.
    tab Her eyes grew. "NO!!! DON'T DO IT--"
    tab BOOM!!!
    tab Silence...the fires spread, rapidly. Inside a little house not too far from here, a father is passed his lovely little gun...
    tab "My dear, my darling ones.." He called his five children. His oldest is a girl in her teens, then a younger brother, and three youngest children: two boys and a girl, chewing on her teddy bear.
    tab "Come on, children." He spoke calmly. "Go in the attic."
    tab "NO!!!!" The woman outside screamed, "My BABY, my baby, my baby, my baby--NO!! Let GO...!!!"
    tab The youngest girl cried.
    tab "Is okay, children, get in the attic."
    tab They jumped down the secret door under a rug. All of them ran fast--a tunnel, long and very far. They don't know where the youngest girl went. "Where's Susie?" The eldest boy asked. The father looked back...
    tab Wait, my teddy bear...!
    tab The man is so calm. He hugged all of his children, one by one, lastly his daughter. He said, "Take care of your brothers. I will be back, okay?"
    tab Tears poured from her eyes. "Daddy, wait, don't go."
    tab But he had already left. She watched him run back, as children cried, and she pulled away her little brothers as they sprinted through the tunnel, endlessly.
    tab He punched the door open.
    tab "DADDY!!!"
    tab The men had sticks with sharp spikes on them. They beat him as his daughter was being forced to the ground. The children ran through the tunnel, crying forever as they ran nonstop, auto-piloting to the door! The father had his body mutilated so that blood splattered everywhere across the cabin's wooden walls. A bright scarlet with fire. The children reach the woods, running, running, running until they saw something past trees--a light. He is staring, straight in the eye, the bullet that slowly comes from the shotgun. The children reach the railroad. A train is sprinting as fast as they could see...
    tab BOOM!!
    tab The kids followed the train. It was midnight...
    tab They heard the shotgun.
    tab The eldest sister pulled each of her siblings up. An arduous task, she almost fell off! Her brothers held her up as she reached for her last brother...and he's saved!
    tab ...The train, in the darkness of the vast, black sky, and the cold, unsettling trees that seemed to rumble back and forth, restlessly, and the chilling, killing air, moved on. When the children smelled burnt wood and saw smoke in the sky...
