I'm not sure what to call it yet, so for now I am going to call it:

Life or Death

Slowly, Susie and Elizabeth walked down the street. Susie was giggling. "Oh Elizabeth, you're so funny... even during this time in our life!"

Susie looked around. Her heart sank. It was world war 2. The sky was gray and filled with clouds of rain. Susie and Elizabeth had to walk slowly to make sure they don't step in puddles. Mostly though, because they wanted to be together and they were dreading what they might see when they got home. It was a sad sight. Everyday the Nazis' were taking jews from their own homes, sending them to concentration camps, separating families, and killing innocent people. All because of Hitler, who seemed to be the harshest ruler in the universe. Susie had been taught to love everyone, but that just didn't seem possible with Hitler. She and Elizabeth could come home any day now and find her family gone. Just because they were Jews.

"What's wrong Susie?" Elizabeth asked.

"Well... It's just... well..." Susie said stumbling over her words, at the verge of tears. "We can come home any day now and find our family gone! There I said it" She said starting to cry.

"Susie, that's probably not going to happen for a long time. But, if it does, we'll be ready with the emergency plan that our parents made." Elizabeth said calmly.

"What if it doesn't work! I mean open your eyes! We're Jews! Soon enough, they'll be coming for us!" Susie said, starting to yell.

"Suzie, listen..." Elizabeth said panicing a little.

"NO! Just leave me alone, Elizabeth! I know your trying to help... b-but it's n-not working!" And with that Susie took off sobbing.

She ran right home running through the door. She had managed to tear off the star she was supposed to wear as a Jew. She wiped her eyes. "Mom!" She exclaimed. "Mark, Marie!" No answer. "Mom, Dad!" Her words seemed to get swallowed up in the darkness. "Dad!" Susie switched on the light. She wished she hadn't done that. She gasped at the sight. It was like walking into a surprise death party. She wished she could say it was anything but what she was seeing. Her house was like it had been shaken by a giant. Her family's table, couches, beds, were all everywhere. Some on their sides. Some on their backs. Then this thought ran through her brain: "The Nazis were here! What if they're still here?!"

She heard a rustling. "Huh!" she exclaimed. "Who's there?" "Nazis put your hands up!" Susie saw her family with them. Little bags of their things were hanging from their hands. The Nazis had their valuables. "PUT OUR THINGS DOWN!" She screamed running toward them. BANG! the Nazi put his gun down. Susie's mother screamed. "SUSIE!" Susie was sprawled on the floor. "Huh?" she whispered very faintly. "Susie!" her mother exclaimed dropping her things and kneeling next to Susie. The Nazi pointed his gun at Susie's mom. " Go back where you were or else you die now!" Susie's mom hesitated. BANG!

"Honey!" Susie's dad exclaimed in a very shocked voice. He looked down at her. She was OK. The Bullet hadn't hit her. "Did you just try to shoot me?" she said in a oh no you didn't kind of tone. The Nazi Pointed the gun again. Susie's mother quickly got up, picked up Susie and walked back to her family. "OK now what are you going to do?" The mom challenged. "Well..." the Nazi hesitated. "Your just coming with us!" he bellowed in a very VERY and I mean VERY low voice. The Nazis pushed them out the door with their guns. They all got into a cramped car. The Nazis turned on the sirens. Susie woke up. "Huh?" she questioned. "Where are we?" "There there" Susie's dad comforted. "It's OK he whispered. Susie's family, cramped and uncomfortable, covered their ears. The wailing car drove through the streets. It suddenly stopped. The house before Susie's eyes looked really familiar. Susie gasped. She now knew why it was familiar. That's because she went to this house once a week. The Nazis ran into the house, knocking down doors, while shouting: "Nazis put your hands up. Susie turned to her mother. "Mom, t-that's ELIZABETH"S house!"

Highs and lows this week:

Highs: I watched Harry Potter 7 part 2 this week in theaters, we had the pioneer day celebration, and I got to chat with one of my friends online.

Lows: While I was cleaning the church yesterday I got a blister in a really weird spot on the side of my foot, and I didn't get popcorn while watching the Harry Potter movie.
