• I squeezed Annie's hand harder. "Annie." I said in a soothing voice."Where's Adam?" A tear fell from my eye."Well, Nancy was carrying him out and he was crying. She said to be quiet and he was just going away for a bit." Liam had his head leaned against my shoulder and he was sucking his thumb. I was frozen in shock. I handed Liam to Damon. "Damon watch Liam and Annie for a bit. If i don't come back promise me you'll keep them together."Gretel, what do you mean if you don't come back?" I got on my tip toes and kissed him on the cheek. I started to run down the stairs and heard Damon calling after me. There Nancy was in the kitchen eating a piece of broccoli. I came up in front of her and she was smiling happily listening to her I-pod. I grabbed the collar of her shirt and rammed her against the wall. Startled she threw her head phones off. "Gretel?" I grabbed a knife with my free hand and put it close to her neck. "HELP!" She started to scream. "Shut up i mumbled under my breath. I was sweating and furious with rage. Nancy grabbed the knife with her hand and threw it across the floor spinning like a spin top. She kneed me right in the stomach. I gasped for breath and backed away. One of the other orphans came running down the stairs. "Guys! Come check this out! Cat fight!" He screamed. I soon heard hundreds of other footsteps followed bye Damon. "Gretel! You've lost it!" He was followed by 50 other voices screaming, "Fight!Fight!" I ran for Nancy throwing her against the wall. "Knife!" I screamed. Someone handed me the knife and i put it to her neck. "I'm gonna say this one more time. Where the hell is Liam!" "Okay! Just don't stab me she whispered." I loosened the knife and the next thing she said was. "On a plane with his new parents." The next thing you know, the world went black.
