My phone went off like it had just received a text. Oh god I'm dead was my first thought I pair of footsteps started coming towards the cabinet. I clutched the knife I always kept with me preparing myself to lunge and cut at whoever was outside the cabinet door.
*the cabinet opened*
I sighed with relief I knew this person it was none other then the man who owned the orphanage I was safe. I crawled out from the cabinet and got up still clutching my knife. He whispered to me that I needed to get out of the kitchen and gestured to the front room. The attic he was telling me to wait it out up there. Unfortunately not all of us can fit in there and at most maybe two people in the upstairs one the one in the front room where I had to go could only hold one. A little girl holding a pistol crawled into the cabinet I had just crawled out from she had good aim and was very fast on her feet. "Why hasn't she left?" I whispered to him. I knew this kid could make it out alive if she felt like it. He told me she said she'd stay here and didn't want to risk the outside. I hadn't seen the outside for some time so I figured it was probably bad if she wasn't even going to attempt. "Can't we make a break for a police station?" I suggested in a hushed tone. He thought for a minute that was probably something he hadn't thought of during all this crap. He shock his head and gestured toward the cabinet. He's right she's our best bet if she were to team up with two other kids but she didn't want to go outside. He'd probably feel bad making someone that's only 7 risk their life for some help that she might not even make it to. He handed me a pistol unfortunately it only had about five rounds. It was equipped with a silencer so that was a plus. I quickly and quietly ran to the front of the orphanage. I had to pull the string down without the old ladder making a lot of noise when it was released which was impossible to not make it make any sound. It's load and old so once I pulled the string and the ladder came sliding out I caught it before it could crash onto the floor but I couldn't reach the upper door that swings open every time someone opens it.
*the was a creak that sounded like a very old door being opened*
Shit I quickly climbed the ladder up into the tiny attic as quietly as possible and pulled the ladder up behind me after that I closed the door hatch. It was pitch black in here there was nothing but me darkness and the items I had on me as well as the toys the orphans had brought with them when they'd first arrived lit of Bennie baby's and by a lot like 12.
Time 8:00pm
And the American girl doll I had brought when I first came here. That brought back memories I nagged Dante into buying it for me after hed protected me on the mission we first met on. He took me to the orphanage that night since I didn't have anywhere to go and he couldn't just bring me back to the orphanage I had originally came from. He wasn't the one to forge the adoption papers so even if he had tried that he'd probably get in trouble. I told him I wasn't gonna leave him if he didn't get me the doll I'd always liked girly girl things. And I'd left pretty much everything at the old place because my new family was supposedly rich that of course never happened. I think the only reason I was told about the wealth of these people was because I was a super girly girl and I'd make a decent noble lady. I want to giggle at these silly daydreams but I can't I don't feel like dying today.
Hour 10:pm
