Your state recently decided to agree to the purge the government had started and you were absolutely terrified
You lived by yourself in a apartment and you knew you didn’t stand a chance with safety, which was killing you
You spent the whole day terrified and finally at the time the purge starts, you sat in your couch listening to the TV announcement
“BROADCAST: This is not a test. This is your emergency broadcast system announcing the commencement of the Annual Purge, sanctioned by the U.S. Government. Commencing at the siren, any and all crime, including murder, will be legal for 12 continuous hours. Weapons of class 4 and lower have been authorized for use during the Purge. Government officials, police, firemen and medical workers will not be available until 7AM tomorrow and they shall not be armed. May God be with your all, and God bless America, a nation reborn.”
As the siren sounded, you closed your eyes in a silent prayer. your life was on the line after this second.
