Personal Narrative: My Family Is Dead
There I was, walking along the road that lead to whatever next town it let to. It was a cold, windy sunny day with no cars around and I was also alone, which to me was a perfect day and I was also terrified.

I should probably tell you that most of my family is dead. It all started when I was just five years old. We had lived in California were I was born and had asked my parents if they could take my brother and I to the park, since it was a hot sunny day. Soon enough we were heading down the highway to our destination. I was in the back seat playing, or rather trying to play a ukulele that my mom got me a year ago. My parents thought it was a great idea to entertain me with music, although I was five and could have broken it.

My brother,

Then the car starting to spin and I was pretty sure we hit something hard because all the windows broke and glass fell on top of me. Of course I thought it was over, that was until something hit my door and I passed out due to the pain.

But one thing was clear to me, someone did it on purpose and the person who killed my parents were after me now.

You see the person who killed my parents wasn't finished just yet. When I turned ten, my brother was kidnapped. I didn't want to get into detail because afterwards he ended up dead, although me and my foster family were searching for him, only to find him dead in the parking lot.

I wouldn't stop crying, that was until my foster mom, Evenly told me she would do anything to find the person who killed Blake and would pay for it. Of course we never found him and at the age of fifeteen my foster parents died a fire that had occured in our house.

I was the only one to get it out, stairing at the building that was no longer my home, The roof falling apart, the front door falling off, then I got the message. I was next, a girl who never did anything wrong and was torn apart by her frighting past. The fire trucks hadn't gotten here yet. It was midnight and I was standing on someone's lawn across from my home. Watching the house fall apart. Sure enough I turned and

    I don’t remember much about how my family died, I was just a three year old boy; Keenan Waren. All I can remember is it was Thanksgiving day with my whole family. I know it was this day because the smell of the turkey was burnt into my memory, and it’s also what the people at the orphanage told me as I was growing up. Something else I can recall is seeing a tall, bulky shadow holding a green flame in his hand after the lights shut off. Everyone was screaming, but I am still unsure of what was happening to them. My mom carried me out into the rainy night in front of the house in my carseat, and I was crying for the teddy bear my aunt gave me for my first birthday. I kept crying, so my mom covered me with blanket and ran back inside to grab it…

    Four years ago, on a normal Thursday school night, I was sitting in my room doing my homework and my aunt came bursting into the door saying my brother was kidnapped. I did not want to believe what I heard and kept asking her to repeat herself. I ran outside of the house and screamed because my emotional pain became so hard that my stomach felt like it was tied in strong ropes and I was ripping apart, I was devastated because my only brother was gone, I didn’t know if I would ever see him again, I did not even have a chance to say goodbye. I was angry at myself, at the people that took him. Life seemed impossible to live during the days he was kidnapped. My family finally came up with the ransom the kidnapers were asking for and through a miracle…

My parents had decided this was the perfect place to raise me and my brother who is two years older than me.

    I was trying to wake up and trick my mind into believing that all of the buildings collapsing, people dying, gunshots firing was not real at all. Unfortunately none of the violence was ending, and at that point I knew i could not trick myself anymore. This was real. As I stand there crying my eyes out with no one familiar around me, I heard someone call my name with sirens going off at the same time. There were people crying, getting shot, dying, weeping all around me. There were dead bodies of people i had seen on the streets while walking. I stopped for a second and saw my friends walking towards me telling me to run to the bus as soon as possible. I did not want to go not knowing where my family was but that was my only choice to get home safe and to ease my mother's worries. I walked out and heard my friends in my bus screaming my name in the saddest matter and tones of voices. I could hear them holding back their tears, but at the same time i could hardly understand them because of all the tears they were shedding. When i got on the bus it was overflowing with kids and people, because the driver wanted to fit as many passengers as he possibly could transport. Many kids in the bus had no idea where their friends and siblings were, so i knew i was not alone. I finally arrived at my home and my mother was there waiting, trying to comfort me. She had been crying and…
