Katy Trenton: A Short Story
We started getting ahead, and a familiar voice shouted loudly, " CAN THIS THING NOT GO ANY FASTER?!? THEY'RE GETTING AWAY DO SOMETHING!!"

I turned around to see the face of my betrayer. The face of the person who I thought I could always trust. The face of Katy Trenton.

I rolled down the window and roared, " WHY WOULD YOU THIS, I THOUGHT YOU WERE MY FRIEND, I THOUGHT I COULD TRUST YOU."

She looked over at me, and glared with a nasty smile. " START SHOOTING!" she yelled.

They did as the rich, young woman told them to do, and started shooting at the car. There were loud bullets booming, glass shattering everywhere, and sirens ringing in my ears. Everything was so loud, piercing my ears and quickening my heart. I screamed in horror as glass

It was a wooden house with plenty of supplies, but no people living it. There were two other houses on each side of the house, identical to the one we were staying in. Even though Emilia and Leah always warned me it was dangerous, every year I would drive down to Virginia Peach Ocean Side and lean on the the large, green sign watching the sun fall from the illustrated sky.

The infamous Graffiti Gangsters of New York were now a forgotten crime to the city, but I had unfinished business. It had been 15 years since Aaron had died, and I stood watching the bright sky fade away.

    3:15 am, I lie in the spot of my bed I’d always gone to for comfort, now lying there unable to move, think, breathe, sleep, trying to wrap my mind around the fact that my world would never be the same again. Randomly waking up in the early hours of the morning is something I rarely do, so waking up at 3:06 am looking around my room, seeing Kierra also happen to wake up wasn’t right.
