 PROLOGUE 

ALISHA

In moments like these you truly realize how fragile and vulnerable life is. How it could turn upside down in a matter of seconds, how you could lose everything, forever.

It was a fairly normal day for me. A dull, rainy Thursday in school. I knew I'd have to deal with bullies again, I'd have to make a decision, and I'd have to go get my renewed passport. My brothers' dream project was finally to be released after a week. So guess it was a good day. It was supposed to be a good day.

Until he came in, came in with a machine gun.

From fighting in a debate in English class, I went to fighting for my life, fighting for everyone's lives. They were going to kill us all, and I didn't accept it. I decided to fight, decided to gather all the courage I had to try and save my life, save everyone's lives.

And I almost succeeded with help of others. I was out of the building, and I could see people from my school far off, being treated and taken away from the building. I could see journalists, cops, Special Forces, Marcos and RAW personnel. They all thought it was over; I was one of the last people to be out. But it wasn't.

I wanted to scream that it was far from over. They had to know that is the terrorist behind me- Tango Charlie- died, it would trigger off the bombs. But I could hardly breathe, let alone talk.

I looked at my friends, who were probably safe from the bombs when they exploded. Most of the people were out of the direct range, excluding me and a few others. If Tango Charlie survived a little more, nobody would die. I was wishing for a terrorist to stay alive, wishing the cyanide pill he gulped wouldn't work.

I saw one of my brothers standing, looking at me with eyes filled with emotions so vivid. This might be the last time I saw him, saw any of the people I loved all my life. Even though adopted, I had the best family I could have wished for. I had friends that were insane and yet my life. I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye, to tell them how much I loved them and that I'd do anything for them. All of it was gonna stay inside of me, because I couldn't speak.

"We lost his pulse!" said a medic as they guided me to the ambulance. I knew who they were talking about, it was Tango Charlie. Before I could even think about anything else, darkness of death engulfed me.
