Intro------------------------ There was a knock on the door, and Mark thought "Who could it be at this time of night?" But he would never get an answer to his question. So he walked to teh dor and opened it to find a man wearing black and a ski mask to cover his face. The man lunged at Mark stabbing him in the chest. But Mark being honorably discharged from the Navy instinctivly backed up, but not quick enough. When Krystal walked past and wondered what all the comotion was about. The she saw the man in black standing over Mark's lifeless body, lookig down up on him. She started to scream, which was what awoke Heaven. Heaven had jsut turned 16 two days ago. Quietly she stole out of her room and downteh stairs to see her greatest fear in life. Heaven gasped and ran down the stairs to see in vain if they were alive. They weren't. She cried and panicked thinking that the killer could still be in the house. Just as she was about to call teh cops she noticed a shadow of a man creeping up behind her with a knife perparing to stab her. Heaven quickly droped teh phone and ran screaming out of the house. This was no fool when it cam to murder, for he stood there until she was gone and then walked calmly back into the night. As he walked, he distubingly smiled to himself and congradulated himself in the effort. Little did he know he was walking right into jail. All due to Heaven thinking to go to a neightboors. There on the porch she pounded on the door until they answered it. "Heaven! What are you doing here? You should be sleeping." he asked with curiousity. By then Heaven was gasping for breath and tried to reply "My parents..........are ....dead...This man....ha- stabbed them..." she panted. "It's alright, calm down and relax. Tell me what happened." he tried to calm her down. "And ......then tried. to....to...stab me too." she finished. That was her last straw. She broke down and cried. Cried out of fear, despair and anger. In finally occured to her that she had no other family. That she would go to an orphanage. You see her two aunts quit talking to her father when she was two years old. Her grandparents were dead. But there was that chance that maybe, just perhaps, she would be adopted. But she knew she could never replace her parents, for now there was somethign missing in her heart. Something she couldn't get back. The nieghboor knew her when her aunts quit talking to her family. That was around that the time they moved in to the house. He felt a deep sympathy for her and shock from the news of what just happened. "Come in dear. Come in and try to get some rest. We'll figure somthing out in the morning." he directed and lead her inside. When she saw the couch a wave of sleepiness washed over her. Slowly she laid down and cried her self to seep, which didn't take very long. By the time her neightboor came back down witha blanket he saw she was already fast asleep. He smiled and then shook his head as he covered her with the blanket, to cover her from the cold.
