My mother sister and I were at the beach one day. The weather was warm, but I could tell a storm was approaching. At the time I was 13 and thought my little 4 year old sister Andrea was extremely annoying. I always felt embarrassed to be around her. I lay sulking on the beach when I saw my moms friend approaching. "Oh great, I moaned knowing we'd be here forever while they talked. I decided to take a walk. I walked towards an old pretzel stand. It was boarded up. I walked around the building to a dark dank alley. I sat against the cool wall enjoying the silence, when it began to rain. It was only a slight drizzle so I decide not to worry about it. I closed my eyes dozing off until I heard footsteps approaching rapidly. I opened my eyes quickly. A man with a gun was walking towards me. He told me to lay on the ground and strip my clothes. He said if I made a sound he'd blow my brains out. He pressed the gun against my head while he stripped his clothes. Suddenly I saw a bright light and heard my deceased grandmas voice. "It will be ok dear," she said. That's is when I saw my mom, sister, and my moms friend run into the tiny space. "Get away from her my mom screamed, the police are coming!" Off in the distance I could here sirens.

The man who was about to rape and kill me was put in jail. I also found out that it was my sister who saved me. She told us that she kept hearing grandma telling her to follow me. When she saw the man with the gun, she told mom who called the police. Without my deceased grandmas guidance I would have been killed. I never thought poorly of my sister again.
