Brice POV
He's fucking joking right....the judge is fucking joking and this is all just one sick joke right!? HA HA YEA THIS IS FUCKING HILARIOUS! My monster of a father is free from jail and back in our lives again....free. A four letter word that just ruins everything like that. I was surprised that I could hear my mom scream and cry since at that moment I felt like the world was just a blank space and we were all just pieces of shit ruining it.

Just as the judge is about to get up, Angel comes running in with a box.

"THE CASE ISNT OVER YET" She yells out of breath as Ben stops moving and looks at her in confusion and anger.

"Im sorry girl but we are done here-"

"Wait, she could have something valuable that could make all the difference" Our lawyer says interrupting the judge.

He looks from our lawyer to Angel before sighing and sitting down again.

"Ok" he huffs

"Here...play this. Its a DVD from the club that Mr. Ben here used to own." Angel states as the disc is put into the player and everyones attention goes to the projector again.

"Get out there and put on a good show for me alright.....You girls really need to bring in the money for me"Ben says on it.

The disc then flips to the scene of us wearing the clothing as we move around on our poles. My face reddens in embarrassment as does the girls and I look at mom and Mark who look shocked and disgusted....just great.

"I saw so many tips flying....give them here and be here tomorrow morning to work for me again....and there better be beers in the fridge when I get home." He mutters leaving us in the dressing room.

The projector goes blank as Angel turns to face the judge who shakes his head looking at Ben.

"See your honor, it is true that he is such a horrible father...I mean look at the type of business he ran!" The lawyer argues

"If you allow him to be running free then this case will be far from over" Mom says

"Ok...he is sentenced to jail for at least ten years but there is still no proof that the girls were really raped or that they didn't stab and abuse their father" The judge states

"I wouldn't bet on that" Angel takes out another disc and places it in the player as the video of Ben dragging me and my sisters into the dark room appears on the screen.

"PLEASE STOP...PLEASE" I yelled in the video

It shows him starting to take off our clothes as we whimper and cry. The video changes to yesterday when he got into the house and he chased us.....and then to a horrid scene of him picking up a knife off the floor and stabbing himself ...hard...so hard that you heard the skin pop from the pressure.

"This bastard is psychotic" I mumble and the girls nod

The video cuts off and Angel smirks at Ben who continuously glares at her. We look at the judge whose expression is shocked and his eyes are widened.

"In all my years of working on cases I have never seen one as bad as yours....Mr. Ben Edison Jeffries...we find you guilty and sentenced to 25 years in prison and therapy....case dismissed....I need a drink" He mumbles the last part as he stands to leave.

Everyone cheers as I hug my sisters and we cry happy tears. Angel walks over and we pull her into a group hug.

"Thank you Angel...so much...if it wasn't for you....I don't think we would've win this case. I cant believe you missed school to help us out." Emma states

"Obviously" Angel Jokes

"No but seriously...thank you for digging deeper for us." I say

"Yea we truly think of you as another sister" Blessing says

"It was no big deal guys. You guys joined the crew and saved me from being the only girl...Im glad that I could help you this way" Angel smiles

"Hey guys...why don't we go celebrate!" Mark suggests

"Can we do something before that real quick?" I ask and Mark nods.

We see the guys come out of the school and we all run up to them. Khalil spots my smile and smiles too as he picks me off the floor and hugs me.

"You guys won?" He asks; putting me down.

"Doesn't this look like the face of a winner" I point to my face and he chuckles

"Yea and jts all thanks to your girlfriend" Blessing says to Justin who looks down at Angel

"You saved them?" He asks

"Maybe"She blushes

"Ayyyyyeee check Angel out. A hero tho!" Za says gassin

"Come on. Mark is taking us out for ice cream to celebrate" Emma says taking Za's hand.

"Where's his car?" Taylor asks looking around and we girls laugh

"Whats so funny?" Justin asks

"The fact that you think he's driving all eight of us plus him and mom and our lawyer to get ice cream...in a car" I say

"Then what are we....woah" Khalil stops mid sentence as the guys look at the deluxe coach bus in front of us.

"Hey its better than taking the damn helicopter that he wanted to take originally and plus its the only way we are all gonna fit...come on." Blessing says as we board.

"Here you go my lady" Khalil hands me my ice cream and I giggle.

We sit on one of the many tables and look at the sky as the stars begin to appear.

"So he's out of our lives....he's out of your life....for a while?" He asks

"Yup...for good" I lick my ice cream

We stay silent; just enjoying our ice creams; until Taylor breaks it and says, "Aye yo...we got a shit ton of homework to do before our flight on Friday" and we all groan.

Leave it to Taylor to ruin a moment but Blessing loves him. I think she needs therapy. ;)
