In North America in a house sat a family of three at a table when in reality there were four family members where was the fourth you may ask, the young man named Austin was sitting on the floor eating what little food he was allowed to have that he made while his sister Natasha, mother, and father were eating the majority of it. 

Natasha: Hey twerp why is the chicken burnt? 

Austin: I didn't burn the chicken, Natasha. 

Natasha: Mom, dad, the twerp burnt the chicken. 

The father then went up to Austin and slapped him across the face hard. 

Dad: You little brat what's the big idea burring our food. 

Austin: I didn't burn your food. 

The mother then got up and with her sharp nails scratched his cheek with blood coming out of it. 

Mother: Don't you dare lie to us boy, if your sister said that you burnt the chicken. 

Austin: I didn't burn the chicken. 

The father then took his belt off and began to whip Austin with it for twenty minutes, when he was done there were belt marks all over his body and his clothes were torn up. 

Dad: That's what you get for lying to us young man now tell the truth! 

Austin: I didn't burn the chicken. 

Natasha: Looks like I have to have a go at it. 

Natasha then approached her little brother and began to punch, kick, toss, and jab him several times but the young man didn't fight back knowing he would just be abused more if he resisted. After another twenty minutes Austin was barely hanging on to his life. 

Natasha: Ready to confess now twerp? 

Austin: I, didn't, burn, the chicken. 

Natasha: Well then. 

Natasha then picked up the pate Austin was using and approached the trashcan and dumbed the food into it. 

Natasha: Since you won't confess that you ruined our dinner, I will ruin your dinner by making sure you don't get anymore.

Dad: Now go to your room brat and think about what you have done. 

Austin then got up onto his feet and began to go to his room while trying to keep his balance and conscious when he finally arrived at his room, he patched his wounds and clothes, after he was done, he looked around his room to see all the how to books that were stored in his small room, Austin then went to the window to see the stary night sky he then saw a shooting star and quickly made a wish. 

Austin: I wish that I had a better life than the one I have right now. 

Austin then went to sleep on the mattress without anything to cover him, Austin was then awoken with the sound of the ocean waves causing him to get up on his feet and looked at the source of the sound to see it defiantly was the sea then he looked around to see he was on an island of some kind causing him to smile for the first time in years he was finally free of his abusive family, in the distant there was another island but there were two statues in front of it.
