Spirit Never Dies
Intro
Aeril sat across from her younger brother at the dinner table
as she always did. Her
father sat at the head of the table to her right, a spot that was
left empty on more occasions than she knew it should be.
Her mother, who sat across from her dad and to Aeril's left
had told her that her father's job was only for four years and that
Aeril should feel privileged that her dad worked for the President
of the
As expected, Aeril's dad tried to engage his children in
conversation about their lives, a task that was proving harder and
harder to do, especially with Aeril.
This night was no exception.
The dinner plates were being cleared from the table when out
of the blue Aeril froze still for a brief moment.
She then looked up at her dad with a cold look in her
normally soft blue eyes and told him that she had a surprise for
him. Without asking to
be excused from the table, Aeril left to fetch her gift.
Both dad and mom looked at each other wondering about Aeril's
sudden action. It
wouldn't take long for them to see what the surprise was.
By the time Ariel returned to the table, her family was
eating cut apples for dessert.
Aeril's brother was the first to see her walk in with a Colt
.45 in her right hand, pointing it directly at her father.
"Cool," her brother began to say, "where...."
A piercing gun shot could be heard as Aeril's father fell
forward in his seat with his head falling into his dessert plate
breaking the dish.
Aeril's mom jumped up at that moment looking between Aeril
and her dad in shock at what just happened.
Before her mother could pull her thoughts together, Aeril
turned the gun on her and fired. Another thumping sound could be
heard as a body fell onto the table breaking yet another dessert
plate.
By now, Aeril's brother was under the table trying to hide
from Aeril, but that too was a waste of time and energy.
Aeril bent down, found him and shot one round into his head
as he pleaded for his life.
It took Aeril no more than 90 seconds to kill her family.
It would be no more than three minutes more before she would
hear the faint sounds of sirens rushing down the Virginia roads
towards her house. She
heard the final gun shot sound as she took her own life while
sitting at the dinner table.
Neither the Secret Service, nor the FBI, nor the State
Troopers would be able to fully understand what had happened that
night. The Colt .45
pistol was untraceable, and other than Aeril's suicide, there was no
indication of any outside influence credited to the family murders.
The final reports were written up in less than 30 days
reporting a distraught daughter killing her family prior to killing
herself.
This was the third time a crime like this had taken place
around the world in less than one year.
No one in the law enforcement agencies saw a connection.
They were just sad events that happen around the world.
An increasing aspect of today's life.
