I smiled grimly as I remembered. It was three years ago that that had happened. My life had changed. So had Tori’s. The authority’s story was that two kids had for, some reason, wanted revenge and gunned the whole school. The biggest mass shooting in over a hundred years. My dad had also become a fugitive, ever since he met us that day in the alley. The authority’s wanted him for questioning. Yeah, right, he’s just going to turn himself in. Who ever those gunmen are working for are really after my dad. As in, not me. They just wanted to use me as the hostage. And poor Tori got dragged into the middle of this. She’s been really great to me. Supporting me, never getting mad about the unexpected occurrence of events. Even willing to learn things she despises just to keep me safe.



Like learning how to operate a computer.



“Tori…my god girl, your getting good!â€
