Suddenly I woke up, a thumping noise came from the stairs. Who could it be? It couldn’t be my family, they were sound sleepers; the sound of an airplane taking off next door probably wouldn’t wake them. And none of them ever somnambulated. I had no pets and it wasn’t raining. Then who is it? My heart was racing, calm down I tried to tell myself, it’s nothing. I pulled my comforter over my head and tried to fall back asleep. The thumping noise had stopped, and my heart went back to its usual beat. Then I heard a shuffling noise.
“Jonathan! What are you doing?” I said, I was so stupid it was probably just my younger brother trying to creep me out. There was no reply and it sounded like whatever or whoever was in my house had picked up the pace.
“Jonathan!” I said again, my voice shaky. Then the door opened to my room, it wasn’t Jonathan. It wasn’t anything, nobody was there. This is just a dream go back to sleep I told myself……….
Good job!

Good job!!!(:
March 15,
They came again today, the german soldiers. But this time they took much more people. It has gotten to the point were there are very few left here. I have been contemplating wether it is worth it or not to stay here. I mean yes I have heard stories that people get burned and I know that it would be painful to die that way. But it is so painful to live this way. I don’t know how much more of this I can take. At least if I die I will be reunited with my parents. There is truly nothing keeping from that firey hole other than my little brother, the one thing I have left to live for. If they take him I will truly have nothing left and then I will probably not even make it to the fire. I will just jump into the electric fence and die. It sounds less painful, just a shock and then neverending darkness. I feel as though I am somnambulating through life. Nothing is changing other than my hunger. I’ve never figure out what I did wrong. What anyone could do to deserve this. This ghetto is a black whole, sucking away thousands upon thousands of lifes. Leaving those who don’t get sucked in so scared about when it will happen. However much this ghetto surprises me, the nazis surprise me ten times more. However they managed to kill my parents and so many others without as much as a blink will always shock me. I may always be a jew, but they will forever be murderers.
Great job!!!(:

26 November. Auschwitz.
The air stank of death. Blood, sweat, forsaken dreams. I had been walking with my younger brother, who I assumed was about four years of age; birthdays held no distinct importance in the camps, so I couldn’t be sure. The days came and went like a river, the passing sun and moon blurring into one monotonous nightmare. We were ghouls, empty vessels, somnambulating through our life in the camp. A rather odd-looking German to my right wove haughtily through our lines, jabbing a baton at certain people. I found difficulty in discerning a pattern in which these people were chosen, but as I watched, I realized that the man, adorned in a bleach-white lab coat, seemed to choose twins the most. “Peculiar,” I whispered to myself. With each passing day, I sounded lesser and lesser like myself. My voice sounded strained…cracked. Not a drop of any fluid had touched my lips for days, maybe weeks. For a few moments I watched. The man showed no vague trace of emotion as he chose the people, but there was some spark, some hidden agenda, that I found elusive. The selected, however, went manic. As a small pod of armed Germans approached those picked, their reaction was more or less the same. They clawed at nothing in particular, wailed in a confusing mixture of German and Hebrew, begged to be spared. Have to go now. An officer says we must work. I’m unaware of the time, but the sun is not up yet.

Looking back on that day, I still find it strange that I didn’t know the man immediately. I’d heard stories, countless, horrific stories of the nicknamed Angel of Death, yet even after I was confronted with the monster face-to-face, he remained unrecognized. The whispers, as well, I hadn’t the knowledge to pay any attention to. “Der weiße Engel.” To this day, I will never forget the evil that hid silently behind the emotionless face of Doctor Josef Mengele.
Katie!! I just read your story! Haha I didn’t realize ours were similar!
Wow. That was really good.
