(Anastasia's Point of View)
I regret not listening to Khione's advice to stay in the closet.
I spent twenty minutes in the closet.
20 minutes of unrelenting torture consisting of the constant sound of gunshots and the cries and screams of people as they either died or fled for their lives.
But then, the cries and gunfire abruptly stopped after 2 minutes.
Curiously, I peeked my head out of the closet and nearly vomited at the number of bodies on the floor, soaked in their blood while their eyes were wide and they stared into nothing.
They were all dead!
I clapped my hand over my mouth, fighting the urge to gag as I stepped out of the closet, tiptoeing to avoid stepping on the blood.
I walked as quietly as I could, letting my legs move without a sense of direction.
