The Mummy Maker

Chapter 27

It had been a day or two since the incident, I hadn't returned to school. The twins were having a hard time and so was the rest of the family with reporters outside. Mark hadn't left and dad was always annoyed, the house was constantly fighting and struggling.

I was startled when Enzo barged into my room without knocking, tsking loudly I looked at him. "I could have been doing something inappropriate you know." I growled at him. My mood had been sour the last few days.

"Yeah well I am sick of this house and I am sick of what you have turned into so we are leaving." he spoke pacing around my room with his heavy footing.

"And how do you suppose we do that with the reporters?" I sat up intrigued with the Idea was getting out the house without being spotted. he stopped pacing and smirked at me.

"you remember in the old house when we used to sneak out to clubs?" I nodded my head smirking myself. "Well, were going out the window, Parents are too preoccupied to come and check on us."

Getting up I kicked my brother out to get changed. we backed our bags with a booze and games before slinging them over our shoulders. we please on a Harry potter movie marathon channel so that anyone thought we were here and locked the door.

We climbed out of my window, with it being the easier rout without being stopped my family or the reporters. we made it down without and issue, chuckling to ourselves we snuck over the back garden fence and into the woods.

It didn't take long for the music to reach my ears and he fire to glow around the trees as we entered the groups clearing. some children were caning around the fire while adults drank and ate, it wasn't long until my body was tackled tot he ground, the scent of raven wafting over me.

Enzo headed over tot he barbeque and grabbed two places filling them with food as raven finally got of e and helped me on my feet. I hugged Calypso and Romeo next then Diesel and lastly Jacob wo kissed my head lightly.

Enzo appeared in front of my shoving the plate into my hands. "Eat something, you've not eaten much recently and I am worried." I nodded my head and sat on the grass eating and talking with the other people around me.

We had been out here for a couple of hours, we had plaid multiple game, children camped out and I had drank way more then I was used to. Curled up in Jacobs lap for warmth and at some point Damian had joined us.

I got up and made my way into the tree, I badly needed a wee and was not about to allow someone to stumble on me having a wee. I knew I was going a little to far when the woods was nothing but darkness around me, I could still hear the music to find my way back.

I took off my bottoms and squatted down allowing my body the release it had been craving, once I was finished and dressed I heard a twig snap behind me with a sinister giggle. Not again I thought.

Adrenaline pumped through my veins as my heartbeat got fathers, I was about to panic but I knew that was the best option. I almost lost my shit when a silver hairs girl popped out of the darkness with a smile.

I sighed in relief and walked up hugging her. "you scared me." I pulled back only to frown when I noticed the black eye and busted lip she had. I went to touch it but she pulled away. "Myst?" I asked letting her pull away.

"I-it's nothing, an accident." she smiled. I looked around before looking at her.

"We are alone, you can talk you me." we sat down on the closed fallen tree trunk as she sighed heavily.

"Honestly it really was an accident, I had hurt him by accident and i hit me as pay back." she shrugged.

"By the looks of it he didn't stop." as my eyes adjusted tot he dark more bruises were fading in and becoming noticeable. "what did you do?" I asked

"Bit him." I sat there for a moment thinking before my drunken brain finally fazed into what that actually ment. No I wanted to cry there was no way

"M-Myst are you being S..." before I could finish she stood up looking panicked.

"I need to get going." she began walking away without saying anything more. she disappeared into the darkness, the fear in her voice stuck with me as her sobs faded into the night. I waited until I couldn't here her before breaking down.

I am a horrible friend! I had been so caught up in my own life that I didn't even think about the things that were right in front of me. I thought her farther was just a creep but now? now it all made sense.

the living alone in the woods, the creepy way he was with me in the park, the beatings, how nervous she was with me around him and how she pushed me away from her literally. He was abusing her, but physically, mentally and after what I heard and saw I thing it's the worst kind of physical.
