Hope

Prologue

"Ahh! Stop it please!?!"a young girl screams.
"No you deserve everything you get!"a man yells as he keeps on kicking the young girl.
"Help me,"the young girl whispers. Suddenly there was a very loud knock at the door.
"Police and Social Services...Open up," the person behind the door yells.
The man (who just so happens to be the young girl's father) grabs the gun from the table next to their ratty old couch and snatched her up and puts the gun up to my head. At that moment the door was knocked down and in came the police and Social Services.
"Sir take the gun from her head,"the man in the very front says.
"Daddy please,"the young girl whimpers once more. He looks at his daughter in anger as he cocks the gun.
"Shut up. You know what you did....You killed your mother and now you will pay,"he says as he starts pulling the trigger.
A police man the first one sees what is happening right in front of him and jumps. He jumps and moves the man's arm with the gun but he was too late.
The man finishes pulling the trigger, but the bullet didn't hit her head. It hit her stomach. Right as that happens one of the other police officers shoots the man and killed him instantly.
"We need a medic in here,"a social service worker screamed,"don't worry you will be ok,"and that was the last thing that the young girl heard as she was taken off by the medics.
