Hunter's Requiem {REWRITE}

Warning: this does contain abuse of a child, slurs, homophobia and transphobia.

Hunter stood at the mirror in his room, adjusting his shirt. Today was going to be the day. The day he would tell his parents that he was transgender. He walked downstairs to the dining area sitting down at the table with his parents. Philip, his father, had greying blond hair, while his mother, Mia, had reddish brown. halfway through the steak dinner, Hunter spoke. " hey mom, dad? Can we talk?"
Philip nodded. "Talk, Grace."

"That's the thing, mom and dad. I'm transgender and I'm a boy, i'm your son and not your daughter, my name is Hunter." Hunter watched as his father got up from the table, cobalt blue eyes staring into magenta.
Philip picked up the boy from his seat by the hem of his shirt, and slammed him into the wall. "I WILL NOT HAVE MY DAUGHTER FALL PREY TO THIS..FAD! NO TRANNY IS LIVING UNDER MY ROOF!!" Philip screamed, punching the boy in the face and sending him hurdling towards the floor. his nose was bloody, and a bunch of bruises began to form.
Philip placed his foot on the boy's sternum, causing Hunter to squeak in pain. " Do you hear me, Grace?! You are a girl!" But Hunter didn't move. " It's not a fad or a phase, dad. I really am a boy!"
Mia felt tears in her eyes. " You are not our child then, I did not raise a boy." she hissed, spitting in his face.
Philip grabbed him again, this time throwing him down the front steps of the house. " you are no longer welcome here, not as long as you're like.. that."

Hunter tumbled down the brick porch steps with a thud, hitting the ground. Multiple scrapes, scratches, and all of the past wounds he had were now open, bleeding.
His body hurt, but he ran off with the clothes on his back. He had just celebrated his 14th birthday A week ago, but now? There was nothing to celebrate at this point.

He wandered the streets for days, hungry, dehydrated and weak. He doesn't know how long he's been walking or how far he has, but he came across a small abandoned shed. He ran into it, closing the rotting door behind him. His eyes scanned his surroundings, it must've been abandoned for a while. He collapsed to the floor on an old mattress that was just laying there. His entire body ached in pain, and could barely move his limbs.
A young mother was driving, when she noticed the old shed. She swore she could see somebody inside through the broken windows, and maternal instincts activated. She made it up to the door, and knocked lightly as to not startle whoever was inside. "Hello?" She questioned.

Hunter was awoken by the voice and the knocking and his chest immediately tightened. His head collapsed into his hands, and he began to breathe erratically. He was having a panic attack, and he could barely catch his own breath. "NO, NO, NO! STAY AWAY!" Suddenly, he heard the door open with a loud creak,and two feminine hands were enveloping him into a tight hug. "Breathe for me, kiddo. In and out." Hunter could tell she wasn't a threat, so he allowed himself to breathe in and out and calm down. His breathing sounded like a small whistle when he breathed out because of the upper tooth gap he had earned from getting thrown to the floor. Once he was calmer, he got a good look at the woman's face. Blonde hair and gray eyes. " What happened, buddy?" She asked. Her tone is warm and kind. He refused to talk about it. Suddenly, another figure appeared. This time at the front of the door. Short, light brown hair with purple dye in the bangs and teal eyes. "Night? Are you OK?! You shouldn't run off like that especially since you're fucking pregnant!"
"I'm fine, Forest. The baby is fine as well.  This little guy I just found though, is not." Forest stepped closer, Finally seeing the child crying in her lap.
" I still have my old wheelchair in the back of the car. I'll go grab it because the poor thing seems like he can't even walk." Forest ran out, leaving the two alone
"Your name's Night?" Hunter croaked.
"Yes, it is! And what may your name be?"
He breathed slowly. "Hunter. My name is Hunter. And who was that?"

" That was my younger sibling, Forest. They ran out to get their old wheelchair for you. When they were younger they couldn't walk, but now they can."

"They?" He questioned.
