4hey this is my first story! tell me what you think i'll try to get up the first chapter soon
Prologue
I could feel the ice cold wind wisp through my raven black locks as I raced through the towering red woods. I had to keep running or she'll be on my trail. As I ran the memories from earlier that morning came rushing through my mind.
FLASHBACK
'Ugh just one more branch and I'll be to the top' I thought but a eerie scream cut through the quiet night. I fell off the red wood and I tried to grip the branches as they rushed by. I was finally able to grab a branch and I dangled there trying to lower my heart rate. Finally I climbed down and raced to my home. When I ran through the door I saw my brother on the floor crying he put her index finger to his lips telling me to be quite. I then heard thundering footsteps coming up the steps. I raced to my room and hid in the closet till it stopped. I heard her yell a few words at my brother that really should not be repeated. She then slammed the door shut again. I crawled out of my hiding place over to my little brother. He then pushed me towards my room and I knew right away that he wanted me to go. As in run away never come back that he would be all right. Me being the good child I am did as I was told. I grabbed a bag that was filled with money, food, water, and my diary. My brother and I packed some sacks a few months ago and hid them were my mother dared not go my pigsty of a room. I whispered "Jason be a good boy and don't let her hurt you ok, I'm going now I might not see you again I love you." He nodded his head and I climbed out the window. I heard I faint I love you then I was soon on my way down the dark road towards town.
END OF FLASHBACK
When I increased the footsteps behind me increased. I soon saw light ahead I sprinted. It was a house. Oh it was a beautiful house it was blue with white railings on the second floor the door was also white but had wonderful designs carved into it. I almost slowed down to watch in awe but remembered what awaited me if I did. I was so close but still very far. I felt a tug at my arm and I fell backwards onto the rough and muddy ground. When I looked up only to see a face of horror smiling a crooked grin down at me. "Oh you thought you were a clever didn't you?" my mother whispered drunkenly. You could smell fresh whiskey on her breath. She slapped me and pulled me to my feet by my hair she pushed me into a tree and I hit my head on a branch she hit me in the stomach my head started to spin. She pushed back to the ground and kicked me I the side and started to drag me towards home. But then some lights shined our way and I felt her drop my aching arms and heard retreating footsteps. I laid on the ground groaning. I noticed a light shine down in my face. Some one shouted and others crowded around me. I was picked up. A voice kept whispering soothing words to me. I couldn't make up the face cause everything was hazy. It started to pour rain and I blacked out. The last thing I heard was "it's gonna be alright come on stay with me it's alright."
