So, with what would be her last __3__， she calmly answers “Yes, I believe in God.”

Cassia was in the school library reading her Bible when the two young killers __18__. According to witnesses, one of the killers __19__ his gun at Cassia and asked, “Do you believe in God？” Cassia __20__ and then answered, “Yes, I believe in God.” “Why？” the gunman asked.
