Sharron stood up and said, "I'll come too."

Before the family knew it, they heard someone kicking in their front door. Immediately after, about a hundred men in army uniforms entered their villa and gathered in their living room. Sharron paled and hid behind Chester. "Wh-what are they doing here, honey? Why would they barge into our home?"
