The wind blew in a young blondes hair, moon making her eyes seem like they were glowing.As the girl hummed a melody,she twirled around as if she was dancing with someone.
She kept singing and dancing, not hearing or seeing the shadow creeping behind her, for her eyes was closed.The shadow was still moving towards the girl.
Slowly putting its hand on her shoulder and as it touched her, she jumped frightened.Quickly turning, she saw....
"Mom what did she see?!" A little girl squealed.
The mother just chuckled."You have to wait lily it's time for bed." The mother stood up slowly, taking the frowning child off her lap.
"Mom" The child groaned as she was sat on a the yellow rug.
"Oh c'mon Lily your dad's gonna be here any minute you need to go to bed" The girl only frowned at the mention of her "dad".
"Okay" Lily sat up silently, climbing onto her Queen sized bed.
"Mom, is he ever gonna leave."The mom frowned" I don't know hun, we just have to pray." A single tear rolled down the mothers cheek.
Walking out the room after flipping the light switch, she closed the door.
The mother, Tiana Queen, sighed.After an hour has passed, Lily was asleep and the mother was sitting patiently for her "husband".
The sound of the door ran through Tiana ears, her heart had started to beat faster.
Shoes clicking on the wooded floor, made the sound echo threw the thin walls.
"Tiana" A man with a deep rough voice called out.
A shadow appears near the women, like the shadow in the story."Yes, Richard" visibly scared for what would happen.
A hand sat roughly on her shoulder."Wheres Lily" The voice by itself made her blood run cold.
"Shes asleep"
He hummed in response."What about the other one" He questioned about the 'other' daughter.
"Shes in the basement, like you asked." A tear rolled down her cheek at the mention of her real daughter.
"Good, she needs to rot down there for what she did." The man walked into the wooded kitchen looking around.
"Tiana where's the food.""Uh, I couldn't make it I was reading Lily a book." Stuttering as she went on with her sentence.
The man just stared at her angrily, walking towards her slowly, breathing heavily.
"Didnt I tell you to cook before I got here."
This caused the women to stand up quickly and backing away.
"Yes sir, but I- i" quickly being cut of mid sentence.
"Y-you , shut the hell up." Mocking the woman.

A loud thump and yelling caused a little girl to wake up, but she seemed unfazed by the noise and just walked up the stairs which led to a door slightly opened.Peaking through small crack, she saw a familiar six foot buff man standing over a women laying limp on the floor, blood surrounding her and tears that mixed together.

The noise also awakened Lily, she stood up frightened at the noise.
She crept down the hall, as she turned the corner she was shocked at what she saw.
She let out a scream, which caught Richards attention.
He quickly picked her up, squeezing her shoulders tightly.
"THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HUH?!" The man was furious as it seemed.
He kept squeezing her tightly and yelling the girls vision was blurry for tears were rolling down her face and she was panicking.
Various screams and cry's were heard, but then it went quiet, everything except the girls silent choked cry's for help and the sound of a body dropping onto the hard wooded floor.
The girl from the basement stood tall with a metal bat in her hand, the once standing man was laying flat, knocked out cold, squishing Lily.
It took a lot her the girls strength to push him off, he was lying unconscious on the girl.
As she stood there lily was able to take in her features.
She had chocolate skin, white eyes that seemed like it glowed along with her silver white hair.
She was covered with scars, head to toe. Lily also noticed that the girl had a tattoo on her arm, which was odd for a six year old.
Before she could see what the tattoo looked like she blacked only seeing red and blue, while hearing sirens.

All that happened years ago, Lily got adopted by a loving family while the mysterious girl was never seen again.....Lily lost her memory of her past....

But that night has been hunting her dreams ever since.
She DIDN'T know why though.
