"Dancing isnt my passion it's my life".Thats what I was saying the day my dream was taken away. I was in the dance room with my dance teacher Damian Lewis. He told me,"you have the power to do anything you please but you have to try". I dancing so hard after he told me that and it was a rush that i will never forget.
Ashley Lowe was with me and we were going to go to the studio but we needed to get more people. Ashley said to me."How are we going to dance I think something bad is going to happen." Ashley are you serious right now? We are going to be just fine. Trust me. So we get to the dance studio with Ashley, Brittnay. My mom texted me but i was to busy to answer it. "are you going to get cedes?" No she can wait. Ive never knew that that would be the last my mom ever heard from me.
All of a sudden we hear gun shots and we drop to the floor.The african police came in and told us that we had been picked to be in a competition.
"that's kind of wierd when we just heard gunshots but i guess." Brittnay just take it as it comes its a dance competiton were going no matter what. "
Man whatever im going to listen to what these fools have to say then.
"You guys are the best dancers around town we hear and we want to escort you to the competition ourselves".
"but, wait we need to call our parents"brittnay said.
"No!you must come now we are in a hurry!, we will contact your parents ourselves just go get in the van"
As were walking to the van we sense something is wrong but our teenage minds dont care.
We proceed into the van and the african man is driving crazy. "You guys are in for a rude awakening dumb dancers".So we arrive at a place which there contains no music no dancing no nothing. we try to run but there's no place for us to run.
"You are now property of the African Anti Dancers, and you will do as we say and if you so dare to try to escape you will be hanged in front of everybody"
"i knew this wasnt for real, thought it was a dream but when that whip crossed my face that proved to me that it wasnt a dream"
Everyone got hit it wasnt just me and we heard little kids crying and everytime they cried there was a beating waiting for them.
They made us undress and put on these ugly clothes and rags and they made us wear hats that said dancing isnt the world.
"You guys all we can do is pray and ask that God sees us through this"ashley said.
We all got on our knees and prayed, cried out for the Lord to save us.Praying wasnt allowed and we got beat until the skin on our body was no more.All that was left was meat and bones.
"Get up!!!!Now!!!! its time for you guys to get your shots"
"if i have to tell you again them im going to shoot you on the spot!!!Go!!!!!"
We did as we were told and we didnt evenkno what the shots were but we sat there through all the pain and took it. Later on that night we got weak and our calves started to pulsate as if something was going to come out of it. We cried but the pain was never ending.
"Hey cedes do you think we'll stay together through all this?"ashley said.
"hopefully we do cause you kno i can't make it with out you"
"Everyone outside!!!! Run 10 miles and when you come back you can eat and drink in the cafeteria"
the only thing is that some of them never made it back.And brittnay was one of those people that didnt make it. Ashley and i got through with our miles and went to eat just hoping that we would see her come through that door. but it never happened. the next morning they got us up and we had to go outside and there were people on a roof. the africans were pushing them off and of course brittnay was the first one.
