Russian Roulette: 2 by B Sherif (best books for 8th graders .txt) 📖

up slowly, Roulette you have become way to advance for me I am old and tired. Peter is at the house across from me I say while punching the punching bag I don't have time to waste it's my life or his, and I plan on living for a little bit longer. I am very glad to hear that Roulette but I don't know this man, I don't know how he fights, Zack tries to punch me but I block his shot, a huge smile comes on his face and he says, never mind you'll be just fine. He stares at me for a while, I look down knowing why he's giving me that look. I need to do this alone. I know he says. I continue to say if I die knowing you were there I won't forgive you but if I die knowing I was alone I'll be happy. I just don't want him to hurt me anymore at least I'll die trying than running.  But I can be there to help you he said. Ok, maybe you're right but only if I say so well have a signal so if I yell and if you come out before than I'll never trust you again. Deal he agreed quickly with me, but you won't need me I'll just be there in case. Right I say.
Ross is in a meeting with the sergeant, this footage is real when did you put the camera there. I knew he was going to pull something off I just didn't think that it would be with two correctional officers said Ross. Find out what he has on the guards, I want this whole situation with Peter to be closed. Yes sir Ross said before leaving.
Alright, I'll be downstairs said Zack, I feel comfortable with him so I showed him the secret basement. Wow this place is huge. Yup I say, I have to ask he says where is this gun. I lift up my shirt to show him. You're not going to kill him. If he tries to kill me I'll just shoot him by his own gun. I don't condone murder Roulette he say, this is wrong you're only 19. Just stay here and don't come upstairs I say angrily. I don't think Janet would have wanted you to be like this said Zack. I stopped for a second before going back upstairs.  I'm sitting on my couch waiting for that asswhole to make his move.  My phone rings. Hello I say, hi Roulette it's Ross, listen I know how important this whole situation is to you, and I want to help I'll let you do what you got to do but I want to be there for a back. As Ross is telling me this I can see Peter leaving the house and walking towards my way. Just check the house I say. I am on my way there he says.
I can see that there is no cop car for a strange reason I wonder if Ross had anything to do with this. My door bell rings. Come in I yell. I know for a fact that it is Peter, I was right Peter walks into my house slowly with a huge smile on his face. It's been awhile got to say that I kind of miss this he says. I stand up and say, is there something that I can do for you? Yes, the gun he continues to say, we can do this the easy way or we can do this the hard way. For me personally it's easy either way this can lead to you just handing me the gun or you dying and me taking the gun. You do notice however you want this to go down I am still walking out of this house with the gun. Hmm I say, you do realize that even if you kill me and walk away you won't get very far, there is a cop car outside and that detective that arrested you he's on hi sway here. The only way out is if you leave now. Give me my gun he replies. I don't have the gun I said.  He walks closer to me, and says, I am not going to ask you again. And I am not going to repeat myself again I say. I can tell by his body language that he's getting frustrated. So, I go into first position showing him that I am ready to fight if he wants to tae it there. He laughs and says, don't you remember  that I hit you once hard until you cried? Yeah I said just like a coward, why don't you pick someone your own size. He takes a long pause before throwing a punch. Shit, he got me. I fall to the floor with my nose bleeding. He throws anther punch but he misses. He tries to push me with his feet to make me fall but I grab his leg and twist it and he falls hard on the ground. I can see him struggling to get up, what that's all you got! I yell. He continues to give up but I hit his back and he falls down, he then kicks my feet making me fall and hit my head on the ground. I get up and throw a punch he grabs my arm twists it making me face the wall and not him. Did you actually think you had a chance with me young lady. He twist my arm even more. I grab my pocket knife which I placed in my pocket for my own protection I stab him in his thigh. He lets go and look at his leg you are going to regret that he said. Stay back I yell. I didn't want to end this fight this fast but I saw Ross going to the house across from me and I know he'll come here after. I reach into my clothes and take out the gun, the actual Russian Roulette. Put your hands up I yell. He continues to walk towards me slow so I fire a warning shot I said stay back I continue to yell. He quickly reaches into his back and takes out his gun and says, give me the gun and I wont hurt you. I laugh it off, hurt me? you couldn't hurt me even if you tried. You take 3 years of my life away and killed Janet. He takes a shot and it aims on my arm. Zack enters the room he points the gun at Zack., he shots Zack's arm and says, stay out of it or else I'll kill you with a smile just like the way I killed Janet, you know watching her beg for her life. As soon as Peter turns to me I fire a shot at his head with passion. I look out the window and see Ross running towards my house., he breaks into my door I run downstairs to hide the gun. I come out of my kitchen sink and Ross has this weird look on his face you've been shoot he says, oh, I guess I did I replied. Peter is dead he says, where's the gun? umm, it was his gun I said. You shoot his gun? how did you get your hands on it? Ross continues to ask. It was self-defense he shot Roulette and that's when I heard the shoot and when I came in she shot me too. Don't you think this girl has been through a lot said Zack. I know you killed him Roulette you were here the entire time you shot him with the Russian Roulette and you hid it. But I am going to let this one slide I promised Janet and your father that I'll take care of you. Get your story straight I am calling this in. You okay I asked Zack yeah I am a big guy he says jokingly. A phone rings and it's coming from Peter's pocket. I answer the phone but I don't say anything. Hello hello a voice says, your probably wondering who I am, my name is Michelle I am Oliver's daughter. Sorry he's unable to take your call I said. Are you Roulette I will get you she said. I hung up the phone Ross walks back in and grabs the phone out of my hand don't touch that it's evidence. Just leave from here that house is not safe for you. Zack and I walk out, who was that he asked. That was Oliver's daughter looks like she's looking for me. Zack nods his head you need to leave town. No, I said I need to finish what my father started, this is just the beginning.
