As I sat on my couch, I was watching T.V. Then as I was watching my favorite movie, an emergency alert news broadcast came on. I sighed and rolled my eyes as I flipped to the next channel. But it was the same thing. I then tried flipping to the next channel and the next, and the next, and the next, and the next, and the next and etc. I finally gave up and watched the broadcast.
"WARNING: THIS IS NOT A TEST. THIS IS YOUR EMERGENCY BROADCAST SYSTEM ANNOUNCING THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE ANNUAL PURGE SANCTIONED BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT. WEAPONS OF CLASS 4 AND LOWER HAVE BEEN PERMITTED FOR USE DURING THE PURGE. ALL OTHER WEAPONS ARE RESTRICTED. GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS RANKING 10 AND HIGHER HAVE BEEN GRANTED IMMUNITY FROM THE PURGE AND SHALL NOT BE HARMED. COMMENCING AT THE SIREN, ANY AND ALL CRIME IS LEGAL, INCLUDING MURDER FOR 12 CONTINUOUS HOURS. POLICE, FIRE AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL 7 AM THE NEXT MORNING WHEN THE PURGE CONCLUDES. BLESSED BE OUR NEW FOUNDING FATHERS AND AMERICA, A NATION REBORN. MAY GOD BE WITH YOU ALL."
Tears started streaming down my face as I reached for my phone to call Alfred. I tried to turn my phone on and it was dead (Oh crap). I rushed to lock all of my doors and windows and set the security system. I locked myself in my room with my charger, phone, some food and books. I silently prayed me, Alfred, my friends and family would all be okay as I heard the sirens blare out with car horns honking, people shouting and gunshots coming from outside. I slowly crept over to the window and cautiously opened the blinds. Chaos...everywhere. I read for about thirty minutes whenever I heard someone knocking on my door. I refused to open unless it was someone I knew.
"Y/n! Y/n! It's me Alfred! LET ME IN! Come on babe!" I heard Alfred shout. I ran downstairs and unlocked the door. He ran in and I locked the door. He was carrying a duffle bag. "Alfred, what's in the bag?" I asked nervously. He unzipped and inside were a few masks, some guns, grenades, molotovs, a few knives, a machete and countless rounds of bullets. "You're not gonna kill anyone, right?" I said. "What? No. This is for only if we HAVE to kill someone." He replied calmly.
Just a few months ago, the government said we were going to have a purge once a year and that we should always be ready for it. And now, I know why. "Come on y/n, let's head up to your room, if we lock the door and turn off all the lights, we SHOULD be good. Unless someone tries to break in." Alfred said jogging up the stairs. We locked my bedroom door and turned off the lights. "Alfred, why does the government do this to us? I don't care how beneficial to the economy it is, this is insane and cruel." I said hugging him tightly. He hugged back, "It'll be okay y/n. I promise..."
