Although it was dark and late into the night, I was wide awake.

As the adrenaline rushes though my body I threw the little belonging I had into my small duffel bag.
Zipping the bag up,I reach under my bed. I Glided my hand on the cold floor, searching .
When finally my hands had touched something. That something being a small white box. I slide open the white box to reveal my old beaten up black watch.I put the watch on my wrist and put my duffel bag at the room door.

Walking over to my bed , I get a rope I had hidden between my two mattresses. As I pick up my bag with my rope in hand, I take a minute to have one last glance at my step sister,who was sleeping on the other side of the room. I took this minute to really study her features,because I never really got the chance to. Short- straight jet black hair, her pale skin that shimmered in the moon light, and her round glasses that sat on the nightstand waiting to be worn.

Shaping from my thought I pick up the bag I hadn't noticed I'd dropped, and head for the door. ' I hope the bag didn't make to much noise' , I thought as my heart suddenly starts to beat faster ant the thought of waking someone up.

As I reached the bottom of the first flight of stairs, I stand in front of a window. The window was big enough to fit at least half of a teenaged girl. I flip the latches off the window and began to pull it up. As the window screeched and screamed I continued to pull until it was finally up. I let go of my grip on the window. Picking up the rope I had dropped,tying it tight to the end of the staircase.

As I made my way down the house , I half expected someone to get caught by my step mom or dad. And get beat until I start to bleed.

Shaking the thought , I put my focus back on getting off this rope safely on the ground

I freeze, the sound of foot steps rang in my ears. "Y-Yuna?" I said a bare whisper as sweat dripped from my face. Me and Yuna used to be on good terms until she went all crazy on me for being friends with "her man".

As me and Yuna's silver eyes met with my golden ones as she finally spoke. "Akari..." , was all she said in a soft tone. Not breaking the eye contact, I gained some confidence... well enough confidence to speak with a firm emotion less voice. "What?" ,I say with a small scowling expression on my face.

Yuna's silver eyes darken as her expression changes, into a menacing glare as she held her hand out to view. Revealing she had a sharp knife. "You should be careful what comes out your mouth Akari", she said her voice no longer sounding soft or sain for that matter.

I could feel the sweat trickling down my arm. As I scrambled to get down the rope to safety on solid ground. I could feel my hands. Slipping from the sweat and my grip loosening from the pressure, as Yuna watched me panicking with a wide sinister grin on her face. I loud gasp escapes from my mouth as I realize my hand were no longer griping the rope.

As though everything were happening in slow motion. The sound of the said creaking as Yuna made her escape. The feeling of pain as my body hit one of the cars that were parked in the front area of the house. The faint sound of the car ringing filled my ears as my eyes slowly drifted shut.
