I decided to wait on the back stairs for a little while.i think i fell asleep so After I woke up I walked back to the front door.
“I’m back!” I yelled through the house, no response.
“I got the milk!” silence.
“I’m just goanna go put it in the fridge!” nothing again.
“I’m goanna eat all the ice cream! …. Oh look! A portal to Narnia! …..How are you today little leprechaun!” total silence. “Ok then… BE THAT WAY!”
"Man how long was i asleep?"
What happened did everyone leave? Did time freeze or something I never heard this house so silent. I thought as I put the milk in the fridge.
I walked into the hall and heard Mrs. Millard on the phone and the T.V. on in her office and so I went in.
“Yes… Yes… Of course… we will get ready for him!” I hear Mrs. Millard say as I got closer.
I looked through the door and say everyone sitting around the T.V. eyes glued to the screen. I crawled on the floor struggling through the crowd until I could see what was going on.
They were watching the news. all i could see on the screen was a massive pile of black ask, and fire, with fire-trucks helicopters ambulances,police the whole deal.
The reporter lady was saying “A massive fire burned down the Barker mansion just 20 minutes ago,"
wow seriously how long was asleep?
"with no survivors of the fire the whole family died. The suspect of this mass murder is John Barker a brother who went crazy and set his brothers house on fire while they were having a huge get together. Both Amy and Roger Barker’s family was at this party and died in the fire. How ever there is one survivor of the fire, 13 year old Josh Barker was at the store when all of this happened.”
My heart almost stopped.
“And is now moving into the local Orphanage on 24th street” she continued
That time my heart skipped a beat .
