You are a French teenager during the WWII, you’ve been on this earth for 17 years. You have lived in France all your life and have come to love it. You’re a good kid, you respect your parents and try your hardest in school and it pays off. You’re about to go into the world and to go get a job. Today is your last day in school, and the kids are saying their goodbyes, you bought your teacher a gift to show your token of appreciation and you talk to her about where your going to go after and what job you think of getting into. June 6, 1944 was your day the day when you. Politically you were part of the French Resistance; you hated the Vichy government, your nations pride was deeply damaged when the Nazis took over. I worked for the allies. You gave them information on what the Nazis intelligence. You walked with a limp because when you were young you fell off the back of a motorcycle when your uncle was driving and another motorcycle clipped your uncle. You unfortunately broke your knee and now walk with a small limp, it’s not too noticeable but if someone looks at you closely they can notice it.
While you’re talking to your teacher you hear the radio about a war going on, you are sick and tired of hearing about these wars so you ignore it. You and your teacher are about to leave, you hear people screaming outside you decide to go check out what was happening, you see a French man running and you stop and ask him what was happening, as he tries to wriggle himself free from your strong grip he gets shot in the head, his brains were spatter all over your face, the other Nazi saw you and he started chasing and shooting at you. You knew you were in trouble the teacher looked up from her bag and saw your bloody face; she just stands there in shock. You run and hide in the closet behind the classroom. The Nazi makes it into the classroom and asks the teacher where you are. She said she didn’t know he hits her with the gun and threatens to kill her if she doesn’t tell him where you are. She says she doesn’t know in a shaky voice. He cocks the gun back and shoots her right between the eyes. You stand there, not able to move then you feel a sharp pain in your left knee the same knee that you broke when you were young. You knew eventually the Nazi would look around the classroom and it wouldn’t be long before you were found. You found the jacket on the hangers and threw them over yourself. After you heard the door open you didn’t dare to even breathe. He opened the door and took a glance. He left right after but you don’t dare to move a muscle until you know he’s gone for sure, so you wait for 10 minutes. You know that you wont be safe here in this school building so you try to go find a way out of it people outside were still running and screaming and you can see the bodies on the ground. You slowly get on the floor and creep up to the edge of the door to peek outside, you see a Nazi soldier walking around near you, you immediately act dead, with the bleeding knee and bodies all around he can’t tell the difference. After he passes by you get up and go to the nurses office in your school, you arrive at the office where the office is and notice that the principle and everything in there has been shot, you hop to the medical cabinet and take care of your wound. You sit there for a while, thinking about what just happened. Then you hear footsteps and the door opening you sit there not able to go anywhere or hide anywhere. You see that they are Americans and raise your hands to show your surrender. You pull out your papers to show them that you were part of the resistance and not the Vichy. You were then taken to a ship where they were taking all the citizens of where the war was.
