Its a late summer night Banden Gonzalos is getting his two young girls ready for bed, Natalia and Marie for bed.
"Daddy why do I have to brush my teeth all the time!" Natalia complains.
"Its not all the time just before and after you go to sleep. Its go-" Branden explains
"Just do what your told Natalia! Why can't you be good like me?" Maria interrupts
Brenden sighs rubbing his forehead out of exhaustion. "Lets just finish up so you two can get to sleep."
"Can you read us a bed time story!" screams the two girls.
[["Of course, lets go read a story together."]]
[["No Daddy is way to tired, Come on I'll tuck you two in."]]"Alright which story is it going to be tonight?"
As Brenden is looking at their books the two girls frantically jump into bed anxious for a story.
"The Three Little Pigs!" Natalia cries out.
"I wanted Little Red Riding Hood." Maria says indignantly.
"Well we did that Last night so Natalia's book will be tonights story."
[[Read the story for the girls.]]The two girls run into their room Natalia starts jumping on her bed. Maria with her hands on her hips nags Natalia, "Stop! you know your not supposed to do that!"
Branden tiredly walks into the girl's room. "Come on you to just get in bed." After getting them to finally calm down, He tucks them in kisses them goodnight and leaves them for the night.
[[Lock up the house and head to bed.]]After reading the story Branden tucks and kisses the girls goodnight making sure the night light is on he attempts to sneak out of the room.
"Daddy?" Natalia whispers.
"Yeah?" Branden wincing halfway through the door. He turns his head expectingly.
"Can wolves really blow houses down?" asked Natalia.
"No mi'jita nothing can blow the house down." Brenden answers asuredly.
"OK, good night Daddy." Natalia still whispering.
[[Lock up the house and head to bed.]] The doors are all locked and the windows closed. Branden Heads to the Master Bedroom upstairs right next to the kid's room. The dimmly lit room ready for the couple to sleep. Sofia Brenden's wife getting read for sleep.
"Thanks, for putting the girls to bed." Sofia, tells him. Already changed into pajamas getting into bed.
"It was no problem, I know how much work it is taking care of them and house can be." Brenden responds. As he takes off his slippers, while sitting on the bed.
"Well your job isn't any easier, do you know if your boss will promote you to plant manager? Since Darrell was fired." Sofia hangs over Branden's back.
"I hope I have been there a long time and most the other guys have said they wouldn't mind me taking that position. Although there are other guys who have been there longer then me." Brenden gets under the covers with his wife.
"Well they are getting older and thinking about retirement. I'm sure they would rather have someone younger for a more permanent replacement." Sofia rests her head on her husbands chest.
"Thats true, for now lets just [[go to bed.]]" As he kisses his wife on the head."Branden wake up!" Sofia whispers loudly.
"What, Is something wrong?" Branden responds tiredly.
"I think someone's downstairs." Sofia answers worriedly.
"Don't worry stay here. I'll go check it out."
Brenden gets out of bed and debates what he should do next quetly.
"I think I do hear someone walking around downstairs. Is it just one of the girls? Maybe I should just [[go check]] it out? Do I grab the [[gun]] just in case? I could just [[yell]] out it could just be one of the girls?"Branden walks out the master bedroom. There is a small hall that leads to the stairs to his right. The Girl's room is directly infront of him. The bathroom to his right. The bathroom door is open and empty. Down stairs the kitchen light is on and someone is moving around down there.
"Hmm, I can [[yell down the stairs]] out and see if it is just one of the girls. Or I should I just [[check on the girls]]? Or I can just go down stairs to [[investigate]]."Branden opens the drawer of the nightstand. Inside is a safe that he opens with his finger prints. He grabs the gun, slides the magazine in and cocks the gun.
"Do you really need that thing?" Sofia protests.
"I don't know yet, better safe then sorry right?" Branden argues
Sofia shrugs, "Well just makesure the girls don't see it if it just them. They still don't know about it."
Branden nods, he begins to debate his next move.
"Maybe it is just one of the girls should I just put this thing [[away]]? If it is someone else they could have a gun and I wouldn't have a chance to protect the girls. Maybe I should just keep it and just check whats [[going on (with weapon)]].""I am exhausted, I'll just yell out its probably just one of the girls getting food or something. Plus all the windows and doors were locked no one could have slipped in so queitly." Branden thinks to himself.
"Hey, who's down stairs! Is that one of you girls?!" Brenden yells out.
There is no response."Damn it! What should I do next?" While thinking to himself his wife yells through a whisper.
"Are you serious? Just go check it out already! Do be so lazy!"
"Ok! I'll go."
"The girls didn't respond, should I grab the [[gun]] just in case? Should I just [[go check]] downstairs since there was no response? Maybe I should [[check on the girls]] first? Maybe they just couldn't hear me I'll just go [[yell down the stairs]]." Branden weighing out his options.Branden queitly opens the door to the girls room. As he peers into the dimly lit room he sees both girls still sleeping.
"Shit! someone is definetely down stairs! What should I do now? Should I [[leave the girls]] in here and lock their door? Or should I [[take them into the room with Sophia?]]"Branden makes his way down the stairs.
"Natalia! Maria! girls are you down here?"
As Branden wraps the corner from the base of the stairs into the kitchen he is met with a man aiming right at hime.
"Sorry no girls here. Haha" The strange men chuckles.
[[''BANG!!'']]Branden sighs, "It think your right I don't need this." Branden tells Sofia while he puts the gun away.
"Probably not how could anyone be in here anyways? Just go makesure the girls are ok." Sofia says in agreement.
Branden debate his next option."I think I do hear someone walking around downstairs. Is it just one of the girls? Maybe I should just [[go check]] it out? I could just [[yell]] out it could just be one of the girls?"Branden walks out the master bedroom. There is a small hall that leads to the stairs to his right. The Girl's room is directly infront of him. The bathroom to his right. The bathroom door is open and empty. Down stairs the kitchen light is on and someone is moving around down there.
"Hmm, I can [[yell->Yell out with gun]] out and see if it is just one of the girls. Or I should I just [[check on the girls->check on girls (with gun)]]? Or I can just go down stairs to [[investigate->investigate (with gun)]]."Branden queitly opens the door to the girls room. As he peers into the dimly lit room he sees both girls still sleeping.
"Shit! someone is definetely down stairs! What should I do now? Should I [[leave the girls->leave the girls with gun]] in here and lock their door? Or should I [[take them into the room with Sophia?->Take them into the room with sophia with gun]]"Branden moves down the stairs slowly gun ready. As he peeks around the corner he sees a man. He wraps the corner weapon drawn. "Hands in the air!" he orders the stranger.
The man spins around about to pull a gun out also. Branden notices it before the man can aim it at Branden.
BANG!
Branden kills the man with one shot. He makes his way back upstairs pointing his weapon down the stairs. once upstairs he checks on the girls seeing both of them in their room he tells them to stay right there. Sofia is already on the phone with the cops.
Branden watches the stairs gun ready for anyone else. The cops arrive and check the house for any other danger. Once the house is safe the begin their investigaion on what happened."Hey!! who's down there?" Brendan yells down loudly
"Shut the fuck up!" A mans voice yells back.
"Get the fuck out of my house!" Brendan yells back.
Loud footsteps can be heard approaching the stair case fast. A dark figure pointing something at Brendan from the base of the stairs comes from the kitchen. "I am going to take everything you have, Or I'll kill you and your entire family."
"Hello...Someone is in my home and they are dangerous...9856 Harlan Blvd...Denver...Please hurry!!" Brendan can hear Sophia's muffled voice through the door.
"Well either tell me where you have money or I shoot you!" The man yells
"Ok got to be fast. The girls are in their room probably awake now. Sophia is calling the cops, they should take 15-20 minutes to get here. If they do what is he going to do. I don't even have my gun, he'll probably go on a rampage when they bang on the door. I can [[lie and tell him I have a safe]] in the basement. But what if he makes me go with him? I can try to [[go for the gun]] in my room. What if he gets up here before I can get it out?"Branden Died.Brendan Queitly closes the door. Sneeks into the master bedroom where Sophia is waiting.
"What's going on?" Sophia asks.
"The girls are both in their room. someone else is in the house. Call the cops." Brendan whispers while pulling out his gun and loading it.
Sophia starts calling the cops, giving them the situation and address.
"Alright the gun is loaded and ready to go. Should I just [[wait in the bathroom]] for the cops to come. Just in case he he comes up the stairs. Should I [[threaten the son of the bitch]]? What about the girls would they be safer in their room or should I [[get them in here with Sophia]]?" Branden debates.Brendan Grabs the girls, Sophia just latches to Brendan's neck. Natalia protests a little.
"Where are we going?" She asks tiredly.
"Shh, just stay quiet! Don't say anyting." Brendan whispers into her ear.
He grabs both of them and takes them intot the room with Sofia. Laying them on the bed, Sophia looks at Brendan confused.
"Call the cops somone is in the house, I'm going to makesure he does not get in here." He tells Sohpia, she nods taking her phone and dialing the number.Brendan closes the door and slides the dresser infront of it. It drags against the wood floor loudly. He then grabs the gun from the nightstand loading it.
Heavy steps make their way up the stairs to the upstairs. "You better not of called the cops! If you did I am going to kill all of you!" A man yells out baning on the door.
Brenden gets his gun ready and looks at sophia. She is already up against the farthest corner with both girls in her arms covering their moths. All three of their faces full of terror and wet with tears.
"We called the cops and I have a gun if you don't leave I will shoot!" Brendan yells out what he rehearsed in his gun safety classes. The man kicks the door then shoots through the door. The sounds of police sirens can be heard outside. The sounds of another door being slamed against can be heard comeing from downstairs. The intruder fires his gun through the door. "I'm going to kill all of you!"
Brendan fires a couple back at him, then a cacophony of men yelling and heavy foot steps fill the house. Brendan wraps around his wife and children protecting them as much as possible until it is completely silent.
"This is Denver police we have the suspect in costudy. You are all safe!" A man calmly calls out, a radio loud with incoherent voices can be heard in the background. Brendan tightly squezes his family, filled with joy that his family is safe."I have a safe!" Brendan shouts out.
"Is there? where is it and how do I open it?" The Intruder seems very intrigued.
Brendan contemplates his next move. "Well there is no safe. Although it seems he believes me so far. Should I [[lead him myself?]] and distract him? Or should I just [[lie about it]] and tell him its somewhere in the house and stay up here?"
Sofia still in the master bedroom is calling the cops quietly. Branden bolts into his room, dashes straight for the night stand. "Get in the basement!" He tells his wife. He rips the nightstand open unlocking the gunsafe almost in one motion. Sofia runs into the closet, diving onto the ground in a prone position.
"I'm going to kill all of you fuckers!" The intruder makes his way up the stairs. The man gets through the doorway, he raises his weapon.
BANG! BANG!
Sofia slowly gets up to see what happened. She turns her head slowly terriefied to see what happened.
Branden still standing drops his gun, and runs to Sofia. "That was way to close!" Sofia still trying to process grabs Branden tight. "Shit the girls! Go check on them I am going to make sure this fucker doesn't get up." Branden grabs the Sofia phone, and points towards the girls room.
"Yeah I'll go check on them." Sofia smiles and runs to the gilrs room.
The intruder died and the cops made sure the house was safe before following through with their investigation.Brenden sneeks into the bathroom. There is still movement in the kitchen.
"Daddy?"
"What the fuck!" Branden jumps in surprise.
Natalia steps back in fear. "Is everything ok Daddy?"
"Yes MiJita, just go in your room and lock the door. Now!" Branden demands.
"But I nee-"
"I don't care in there now and be very quiet!" Branden interupts his daughter pushing her into her room and closing the door on her.
"That probably was scary. We'll talk later." Branden thinks to himself as he checks down the stairs weapon ready.
Sophia waks into view of branden, she whispers that the cops are on there way.
Branden nods thinking to himself,"just stay patient and calm, things might get crazy when the [[cops get here]]."While sophia is on the phone with the cops Brendan yells down the stairs.
"Hey I know your down there, I have a gun and the cops are on their way. I suggest you get out of my damn house!"
As the man runs to the base of the stairs, Brendan get his gun ready.
"I'm going to kill you first motherfucker!" The man yells as he gets to the base of the stairs and shoots up the stair case. Brendan shoots two warning shots.
"Will he just leave! Alright, stay calm got to do all of this by the book. Can't end up in prison for one guy. Call the cops, inform the intruder of my gun and the cops. Fired to warning shots, I think that is everything I am supposed to do." Brendan thinks thigns through as fast as possible.
The man yells out, "You missed!" and shoots up the stairs.
When the man stops shooting Brendan peeks out with his gun and shoots his gun. Then gets back into cover, It stays very queit for a while. Brendan peeks down the stairs as queitly as possible. The man is laying on the ground right below the stairs in a pool of blood.
Brendan looks to his wife, "I think he is dead, are the cops almost here?"
"Yes, they are outside approaching the house." Sophia responds.
"Good, Im just happy we are all safe." Brendan hugs his wife.Brendan Grabs the girls, Sophia just latches to Brendan's neck. Natalia protests a little.
"Where are we going?" She asks tiredly.
"Shh, just stay quiet! Don't say anyting." Brendan whispers into her ear.
He grabs both of them and takes them intot the room with Sofia. Laying them on the bed, Sophia sits next to them still on the phone with the cops.
"I'm going to makesure he does not get in here." He tells Sohpia, she nods continuesing her conversation with the operator,
Brendan closes the door and slides the dresser infront of it. It drags against the wood floor loudly. Heavy steps make their way up the stairs to the upstairs.
"You better not have called the cops! If you did I am going to kill all of you!" A man yells out baning on the door.
Brenden gets his gun ready and looks at sophia. She is already up against the farthest corner with both girls in her arms covering their moths. All three of their faces full of terror and wet with tears.
"We called the cops and I have a gun if you don't leave I will shoot!" Brendan yells out what he rehearsed in his gun safety classes. The man kicks the door then shoots through the door. The sounds of police sirens can be heard outside. The sounds of another door being slamed against can be heard comeing from downstairs. The intruder fires his gun through the door. "I'm going to kill all of you!"
Brendan fires a couple back at him, then a cacophony of men yelling and heavy foot steps fill the house. Brendan wraps around his wife and children protecting them as much as possible until it is completely silent.
"This is Denver police we have the suspect in costudy. You are all safe!" A man calmly calls out, a radio loud with incoherent voices can be heard in the background. Brendan tightly squezes his family with a smile and complies with the officer.A loud banging noise comes from the Front door.
"This is cops, we know that there is an intruder in the house come out peacfully or we will breakdown this door!" A man yells out sternly.
"Finally! Now what is going to be your next move?" Branden waits patiently.
"Fuck!" A voice comes from downstairs. "You pigs better stay out there! If you come in here I'll kill the entire family!" Loud pacing can be heard down stairs.
"No we are all upstairs...yes...ok we will." Sophia puts a hand over her phone. "The cops are going to come in Branden!"
Branden nods, takes a deep breath and peers around the corner to check down the stairs. Nothing is there and it gets very queit. Then, the cops start banging on the door.
"Shit! What did I tell you cops!" A man comes from the kitchen to the bottom of the stair case pointing the gun at the front door.
The banging continues and the girls start screaming. The man looks up the stairs, and start running up them.
"This motherfucker!" Brendan shoots at the man. The man tries to retreat and falls down the stairs. The front door is broken down and men can be heard screaming. Police grab the man and take him out the house. Brendan slides down the wall to the ground. Taking in a deep breath. Sophia runs and hugs him on the ground.
"That was scary!" Sophia says exasperated.
"Yeah, lets go check on the girls." Brendan offers holding his wife."Alright I'll show you where it is. I'll come down and open it for you too. it is locked through fingerprint scanner." Branden lies making his way down slowly.
"Very well move slowly where is it?" The intruder points a gun at Branden, he's very wary of Branden.
Branden thinks to himself as he slowly moves down the stairs. "Where should I lead him, My [[office->Lead to office]] or the [[Basement->Lead to Basement]]?""The safe is in my office next to the bathroom downstairs, under the desk. the code is 47856 its a digital lock. There is about ten grand in it take it and leave!" Branden tells the intruder.
The man smiles, "Oh stay up there if I even think you are coming down the stairs I will kill you all!" The man makes his way towards the office.
Branden moves swiftly into the girls room. He grabs both of them and takes them into the master bedroom closing the door behind him. he has to be fast it won't take long for the intruder to notice there is no safe. He throws the girls on the bed closing the door. Dragging the dresser in front of the door blocking it.
"What the fuck!!" The intruder yells out. Loud stomping can be heard, the intruder is making his way to them.
"Hurry! He's going to kill all of us!" Sofia tears streaming down her face pleading with the operator on her phone.
"Shit!" Branden grabs his gun out of the nightstand. "Grab the girls and get in the closet now!" He yells to his wife as Branden loads the gun.
Sofia grabs the girls and drags them into the closet, terrified screams can be heard from the girls.
BAM! BAM! BAM! "You son of a bitch you lied get ready to die motherfuckers!" The intruder yells out.
Branden without replying takes aim and fires two shots through the door.
[[BANG! BANG!]]"Its in my office I'll take you to it. It is locked with my fingerprint." Branden replies cautiously moving down the stairs.
"Keep your fucking hands where I can see them! Don't try anything stupid!" The intruder aims his gun at Branden cautiously following him.
Branden slowly walks with his hands in the air. When he hits that base of the stairs he heads right to the livingroom. The office is just past the living room, the door is on his right. He enters the dark office.
"Alright, do it slowly where is the safe?" The man responds.
"It is under my desk." Branden responds calmly.
Walking to the desk, he notices something outside. "Could those be the cops? I know that Sofia called them maybe they finally got here. Should I try to [[disarm him]]? Or maybe I can kick the desk and [[jump out the window]]? "Its in the basement I'll take you to it. It is locked with my fingerprint." Branden replies cautiously moving down the stairs.
"Keep your fucking hands where I can see them! Don't try anything stupid!" The intruder aims his gun at Branden cautiously following him.
Branden slowly walks with his hands in the air. When he hits that base of the stairs he heads right to the livingroom. The basement door is in the hallway connected to the livingroom. Branden gets to the top of the basement stairs.
Branden weighs out his next option. "I can't take this guy down stairs he'll just shoot me when we get down there. Alright its dark and he has the gun against my head. Do or die!"
Branden swings his head to the left. Bang! A gun shot goes off right next to his head. Branden pivots around and grabs the man's arm and shirt. Following through he throws the man down the stairs. The man tumbles down the stairs.
He shouts out, "Sofia are cops on their way?"
"Their here now!" Sofia yells out.
"You son of a bitch!" BANG! BANG! BANG!
The man fires up the stairs towards Branden. Branden already making his way to the kitchen makes his way to the front door. He unlocks it and swings the door open raising his [[hands in the air instantly]].Brendan Grabs the girls, Sophia just latches to Brendan's neck. Natalia protests a little.
"Where are we going?" She asks tiredly.
"Shh, just stay quiet! Don't say anyting." Brendan whispers into her ear.
He grabs both of them and takes them intot the room with Sofia. Laying them on the bed, Sophia sits next to them still on the phone with the cops.
"I'm going to makesure he does not get in here." He tells Sohpia, she nods continuesing her conversation with the operator,
Brendan closes the door and slides the dresser infront of it. It drags against the wood floor loudly. Heavy steps make their way up the stairs to the upstairs.
"You better not have called the cops! If you did I am going to kill all of you!" A man yells out baning on the door.
Brenden gets his gun ready and looks at sophia. She is already up against the farthest corner with both girls in her arms covering their moths. All three of their faces full of terror and wet with tears.
"We called the cops and I have a gun if you don't leave I will shoot!" Brendan yells out what he rehearsed in his gun safety classes. The man kicks the door then shoots through the door.

"This is Denver police we have the suspect in costudy. You are all safe!" A man calmly calls out, a radio loud with incoherent voices can be heard in the background. Branden tightly squezes his family with a smile and complies with the officer.Brendan Queitly closes the door. Sneeks into the master bedroom where Sophia is waiting.
"What's going on?" Sophia asks.
"The girls are both in their room. someone else is in the house. Call the cops." Brendan whispers.
Sophia starts calling the cops, giving them the situation and address.
"What next? Should I just [[wait in the bathroom]] for the cops to come. Just in case he he comes up the stairs. Should I [[threaten the son of the bitch]]? What about the girls would they be safer in their room or should I [[get them in here with Sophia]]?" Branden debates.Branden turns around violently! He reaches for the man's gun. The man was ready for this, as he steps back to avoid Branden.
BANG!
Branden Died.
Luckily the police were outside and broke down the door when they heard the gun shot. Due to Sofia communicating to the police they understood the situation well. Knowing Branden was most likely shot they ran in to ensure no one else was harmed. The intruder aimed his weapon at the police, in response the police shoot the suspect killing him. The everyone else was safe but now have to live on with out there husband and father.The office is dark as Branden walks behind the desk. The intruder is distracted by the activity outside. Branden grabs the edge of the desk and throws it up at the man. The desk rams into the man, bang! The man accidently fires his weapon.
Branden launches himself through the window landing in the front yard. Police yell out guns drawn, "Freeze! Hands where we can see them now!"
BAM! Another group break down the front door. BANG! BANG! BANG!
Branden lays as flat against the ground arms stretched out. "Don't shoot! I'm the homeowner! Dont shoot!"
Two officers weapons drawn surround Branden. "Hands on your head! Get up slowly!"
Time passes, Branden answers the officers questions and is identified by his wife Sofia. The family is finally reunited outside the home officers check the entire house. Branden holds his family, "Are all of you ok? no one is hurt right?"
Sofia leans on her husband, "We are all ok, next time lets not go with the crazy man with the gun."
Branden chuckles a little, "Yeah? How about we just don't do it again."The girls and Sofia scream, Branden stands like a statue holding his aim at the door. Focused waiting for any sound to come from the other side of the door.
As time passes on Sofia finally calms down enough to pick her phone up. Hands trembling almost hitting her head she puts her ear to the phone.
"Yes we are all fine...Yes that was my husband...ok, we'll stay in here." Sofia responds to the police faintly barely able to speak. "Branden they said to stay in here."
Branden still aiming his gun did not hear his wife. Adrenaline pumping all he hears is his own heart. He is prepared for anything.
"Branden! The police are here they're going to break down the door!" Sofia yells at her husband knowing what state he is in. The police make their way up the stairs and announces, "The suspect is dead! Are all of you ok! please respond!"
Branden almost collapses he drops his gun and grabs his family tightly.
"We are ok!" Sofia yells out. The family of four hold each other tightly, Sofia and the girls cry. Branden sighs heavily, relieved his family is safe."Freeze!" A man yells out, gun drawn.
Branden drops to the ground, "Hurry I threw him down the basement stairs. He's coming."
"Fucker!" The intruder screams, he runs through the back door to escape the police.
"Hurry he is escaping throught the back door!" Branden yells out on his stomach.
Officers enter the house announcing their presence. As they make there way through the house weapons drawn. Branden still laying on the front porch at gun point. Distant gun shots can be heard. There is a moment of silence then a voice can be heard on the radio. "Suspect down!"
"House is clear only the women and children are in the house. No injuries everyone is safe in the house." Another report is communicated through the cops radio.
"I take it you are the Husband?" The officer with Branden asks.
"Yes, I am Branden Gonzales, sir." Branden answers calmly knowing that there is no longer a threat.
The officer puts his weapon away. "Alright your good to get up. Are you injured?"
Branden just flops over on his back. "No I am not injured." Branden sighs heavily. "I am not going in to work tomorrow! haha." Branden chuckles a little.
"Yeah I wouldn't either, haha." The police officer chuckles with Branden."Hey!! who's down there?" Brendan yells down loudly
"Shut the fuck up!" A mans voice yells back.
Branden gets his gun ready, aiming down the stairs.
"Get the fuck out of my house! I have a gun and I will shoot!" Brendan yells back.
Loud footsteps can be heard approaching the stair case fast. A dark figure pointing something at Brendan from the base of the stairs comes from the kitchen. "I am going to take everyth-"
BANG!
Branden kills the intruder with one shot. He checks on the girls seeing both of them in their room he tells them to stay right there. Sofia is already on the phone with the cops.
Branden watches the stairs gun ready for anyone else. The cops arrive and check the house for any other danger. Once the house is safe the begin their investigaion on what happened.
↶↷Its a late summer night Banden Gonzalos is getting his two young girls ready for bed, Natalia and Marie for bed.
"Daddy why do I have to brush my teeth all the time!" Natalia complains.
"Its not all the time just before and after you go to sleep. Its go-" Branden explains
"Just do what your told Natalia! Why can't you be good like me?" Maria interrupts
Brenden sighs rubbing his forehead out of exhaustion. "Lets just finish up so you two can get to sleep."
"Can you read us a bed time story!" screams the two girls.
"Of course, lets go read a story together."
"No Daddy is way to tired, Come on I'll tuck you two in."
