I trudge, bored, home from school. I was taking advanced classes in my already advanced school, it was bound to become boring. Silence blew by outside of my busy brain, four years with just Hugo and I had been harsh, we'd had "nannies", the government thought that both Olson siblings believed their lie, that our parents were on an exotic business trip, I let Hugo believe it, he deserved to go on with his life, he was only four when they passed. It would have been suspicious to send us to be adopted.
  As I walked I traced my parents features in my mind, sometimes I wished I could forget but then, that would do no good. I grew closer to passing the local market and my senses started to flood. There was a scream. I stopped and ran towards it.
  I pushed open a door only to have something cold pressed into my hand and be pushed to the floor onto a thick puddle of something. It took a second before it clicked in my brain, my eyes grew wide, I dropped what seemed to be a gun from my hand and scrambled away. I'm sure my face was a pale white, I started to open my mouth but nothing would come out. I fled the scene in tears, what could I have done?
  I ran the rest of the way to my home, Hugo wouldn't be home quite yet, he would be safe from the blood dripping from my hands and knees. The day I saw my parents life-less bodies I swore I would protect him from everything, even myself if it came down to it.
I sat on the steps in my house. I stared at the blood already beginning to dry on my hands, I could feel my breath becoming more labored as I sat there. The memory of the cold, metal gun pressed against my hand burned my flesh.
I walked toward the bathroom chanting in my mind, it was all going to be all right... but it wasn't. The government would find my fingerprints on the gun, they would think I killed someone! I would lose all chances to work at Zapp Inc, not to mention all chances of living. I had heard of a place outside of the cities, a wasteland, I could escape there. But Hugo! I needed to find somewhere safe for him so I could run! I refused to leave him alone in the world. I would leave him with the nice lady next door she loved him...
