    You were hanging out with your friends, Hannah and Jake you’ve been best friends with them since seventh grade. You guys were just chilling in your room and suddenly something happens. Suddenly, some sort of speaker goes on the TV. It was like the sound of a tornado siren going off, but there were words.

    “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 authorized for use during the Purge. All other weapons are restricted. Government officials of ranking 10 have been granted immunity from the Purge and shall not be harmed. Government officials of ranking 10 have been granted immunity from the Purge and shall not be harmed. Commencing at the siren, any and all crime, including murder, will be legal for 12 continuous hours. Police, fire, and emergency medical services will be unavailable until tomorrow morning until 7 am when The Purge concludes. Blessed be our New Founding Fathers and America, a nation reborn. May God be with you all.”
