The Black Hand Gang was the group of people who had been planning to assassinate Archduke Ferdinand by purchasing weapons from a distant location in which to use for the assassination. The package contains pistols, cyanide, and grenades for explosive attention. The Archduke prayed and prayed before he left his hometown to Sarajevo, but it didn't work that horrifying day, every member of the gang were spread out up and down through the streets for chances to kill their target, Archduke Ferdinand. While time passes, 7/8 members were too shocked by Nedjelko's grenade attempt. The last one of the gang was Gavrilo Princip, who had left the street to purchase a sandwich. Seconds after he finishes his sandwich, he noticed that Archduke was coming his way, as the driver accidentally turned into the wrong street it was Gavrilo's time. After waiting for weeks for everything to come and all his members impatiently waiting to get their hands on this awful man, his time had come. Gavrilo doesn't notice Archduke in the car until they were meters apart. Gavrilo decided Archduke's life should end. He raised his brown high caliber pistol, aimed at Archduke and fired 2 bullets. Gavrilo thought he missed before Sophie Ferdinand screams in pain, she was shot in the stomach. Archduke didn't look to hurt, until blood started gushing and then he realized he was shot in the neck. Sophie dies in minutes, and Archduke not long behind. This was the horror that unleashed the first World War.
