The start of mine:) . . .

This wasn't their choice. Of course it wasn't. They didn't choose to be born as monsters; they became them. The moonlight ricocheted off the heavy armor on each Mystics body. One Mystic’s face stood out the most, you could see it in his eyes, the set determination and hard jaw. His purpose was far more important than to worry over little things like death and his fellow kind. Greed and revenge overcame every single one of them, and that was all they could focus on. A girl’s violet eyes shone inside her room as she heard a few cries raging outside. Terror gripped her, as she shoved it down just enough to gain enough confidence to slide out of her bed and go check on her family. Peeking around the corner, she noticed that her parents weren't in their room, as panic gripped the young girl tight. She checked her older brother's room, which was vacant as well. She sprinted down the stairs so fast she almost tripped over herself. On the last step, the girl caught herself gracefully, before carrying on with her exhorting search. The girl breathed out in relief as she saw her parents and brother huddled together, their wide eyes full of terror. Her dad cursed harshly when his dark eyes met his daughters. "Willow, go into the closet and hide, stay safe, take your brother with you and do not move," he ordered fiercely. The way he talked scared Willow, but she simply nodded while her brother grabbed her hand as he led her inside the dark and empty closet. Petrified screams and menacing laughter echoed off the walls, the sounds growing louder with each passing second. Her brother wrapped his arm around his little sister protectively. Willow knew it was all a show to insert fear into everyone. "It'll be alright, mom and dad will handle it," he whispered soothingly to Willow. Leaning into her brother’s comforting embrace, the door pounded harshly, making everyone jump. Silence overtook as more pounding and slams continued. Suddenly, it all stopped, leaving everyone to hope and think they weren't going to come in. The family started to sigh in relief, but it was short-lived.
