"Ugh! Help me close the door!"

"Right!"

I watched in fear as my parents shut a large and thick metal door. My body shook as the sight of the burning flames came to mind again. I held my lucky necklace in my hands tightly as mother pulled me into a hug.

"Hey sweetie pie. We're going to stay down here for a while.." Mother said.

Her soft brown eyes stared into my own with an angelic look that could fool almost anyone, but just not me.

"No, you and Rada need to go." Father stated.

"What?! No, I'm not leaving you here!" Mother said.

That's when we all heard crashes and explosions from the floor above.

"Find them! Kill every last one of them!"

Father put his green eyes on mother and grabbed her free hand.

"I need to take care of this. Now that they know that you've been with me, they'll stop at nothing to get to you and our daughter....."

Father then ruffled my hair softly.

"I won't let them get to you." He finished.

"Please..... Don't do this..."

Mother started to sob quietly. I slowly reached out one of my hands to wipe her tears away. This is the first time I've seen mother this scared before. She's told me stories about the times she was scared out of her mind but this is something different.

"Mom, don't cry. Dad is super strong! He can beat those guys with just one look!" I exclaimed.

Mother looked at me and smiled softly. Her eyes were only a tiny bit red from her tears, she was clearly trying to stay strong for me.

"Yes, you're right Rada......he is very strong.."

"Okay then.......there is a small door in the back, it's hidden well but just in case, it's behind an open crate.... And you my little angelic devil come here."

My mother pushed me to father lightly and he pulled me into a hug. I looked up at him and pet his blonde hair like I would usually do. The explosions seemed to fade away as I stared at my father. The smile on his face hid his true feelings well, but I could see past it too.

"Can you hold onto your fathers favorite tie. Wouldn't want you, your mother, or this getting hurt."

He slipped off the red tie he wore every day off his neck and put it around my neck. That's when my mother gave me the rectangular object she taught me how to use a while back. I stared at her but only nodded.

"Sir! Down here! There's a metal door!"

"Well! Break it down then!!"

"......you need to go.....I love both of you. So much..."

Father kissed my forehead, then kissed mothers. But, tears slowly started to form in her eyes as she struggled to get words out of her mouth.

"I-I love y-you!"

Father hugged all of us before sending us away. My mother quickly ran to the back of the room which was pitch black. But, my mother moved quickly, even with her one hand wrapped around mine, as she was looking for the open crate. She found it soon after we heard the metal door start to break off its hinges.

We quickly moved the crate together and there was another small metal door. Mother quickly opened it and told me to get inside. I did what I was told but then she closed the door. I looked back quickly to see mother looking at me through a small slot in the door.

"Mom! Mom! You get in here too!"

I slammed my fist against the door and tried to open it but mother was using her body to keep it shut.

"No, you matter more than me. We need to keep you safe, I just.........I just need to help your father."

That's when we heard a blast and lots of yelling.

"You don't come out until things have quieted down okay?!"

I looked at the dark ground before nodding.

"I love you mommy!"

"I love you too, my precious Rada."

She smiled at me before putting the crate in front of the door hiding it from any danger.
I leaned against the cold door waiting. The sounds I heard now were muffled but sounded terrifying. I could hear the clashing of swords and sometimes screams.
This was worrying me. What happened to mom and dad? Could they.......no! They can't be!!

"There's nothing else here sir."

I immediately flinched in fear at the unfamiliar voice. What happened out there?

"Then that's it, let's go. Our job is done here."

I heard muffled 'yes sirs' before everything went quiet. I slowly moved my body so I was facing the door and I turned the handle. It opened but I had to move the box too, so I pushed it out of the way quickly.

"Mom...........dad?....."

I crawled out and stood up. My eyes immediately widened at what I saw. There were a ton of bodies scattered everywhere. But the ones that stood out to me the most was my parents. Mother was sitting on the floor, leaning on a big rock. Blood was visible on her stomach, chest, and face. Her eyes were closed and her head was tilted to the side. Father was next to her with tears in his eyes. He was moving hair out of her bloody face.

"....Dad?..."

Father quickly whipped his head around and saw me. His eyes widened and he sat down next to mom.

"Rada, you're alive...... You're alive..."

That's when I ran up to him and realized he was bleeding out of his stomach and head too. His eyes also held a dull green color instead of his usual bright ones.

"I'm....sorry.....we're not going to be there for you........I love you Rada....we love you...."

"Dad.....what? What are you trying to tell me."

I felt tears start to form in my eyes as the color in his skin started to fade.

"You need to......to survive...... Make a better..... Future..... for yourself.....know that.....we'll always...be...there........for.....you...."

Fathers head then dropped onto mothers shoulder. His eyes open but completely lost of its color.

"D-Dad........mom...."

I lifted fathers cheek hoping I would get some type of response but......I got none....

"...No!......Mommy!....Daddy!"

I dropped everything in my hands and wrapped my arms around both of their bodies.

"Please! Please don't leave me!!!"

I sobbed and sobbed. Sadness took over everything.
I was alone, my parents sacrificed themselves to save me. I couldn't even do anything!
My grip on my parents tightened knowing I won't be able to have them in my life anymore. I wished I could've saved them, I wish that they were alive, even if they don't know me!

This is where our next adventure begins. A child's life now ruined because she lost her parents. But, wants to make a difference. Maybe even change things. What about history itself?

I literally cried writing this. It was so sad.....
BUT!! NOW THE SEQUEL IS OUT! IM SO EXCITED!!!
