I get in the car and drive to where ever my car takes me.

*************************************

I jump into my dads arms as soon as I saw him. I haven't seen him since like 2 weeks, he had to go on a business trip but he promised it would be the first and last one.

"So I have good news" my dad says "but this might be bad news for you".

"Go on..." I say not really having a good feeling in my stomach.

"Well you remember your brother right trace well I kind of bumped into him the other day and he wants to see you".

I let out a bitter laugh before replying "well he can go shove his head through a wall Because I don't want to see him".

"Riley come on give him a chance!" my dad says with pleading eyes.

"Did he give me one? No, he just ran off left me alone to deal with my mothers death. I was 14 dad, 14, yet still I went through so much shit and pain so why dad tell me why should I give my stupid brother another chance!" I practically shout.

My father looked at me and smiled, "forgiveness is the key to happiness." He whispers

I felt the tears in my eyes. My mother used to say that all the time and by now I had run into my dad's arms and cried I cried out all the emotion and pain going through my body.

"Dad, why did you just quote mum?" I say my voice coming out hoarse.

"Because you mothers words were always soothing and always made me open my eyes and see the real world." he whispers back

*************************************
A knock interrupts me from my reading "come in!" I say

The door knob twists and I gasp when I see who it was .

"Are you just ganna stand there and gape at me or are you ganna come give your favourite uncle a hug?" he says with a smirk playing at his lips.

I look around. "I don't see uncle Dylan.." I say before turning to my book.

"Are you using my twin against me, pedals?" he says a hint of amusement in his eyes

"Sorry Uncle Tom I don't know what your talking about." I say pulling an innocent face

"Well I guess this is a wake up call for the TICKLE MONSTER!"

He jumps ontop of me capturing me and jabs his fingers in my ribs and tickles me. "Stop it!" I say in between my laughter.

"Only if you say Uncle Tom is my favourite." He says an evil grin spreading across his face.

"Okay, okay," I  say  breathlessly. "Uncle Tom is my favourite!"

He winks and hops off me. "That's my girl,"

"So what are you doing here?" I ask

"Just came to see my flower," he replies with a shrug

I gave him a small smile and hugged him.

Bob the builder came running at me.
Nope, just kidding!
THE FREAKING HULK CAME RUNNING AT ME! Except, he wasn't green, or that huge. You could say he was a non-green-or-that-huge-hulk-with-sweat hulk.
Okay, back to the fight.

The ring smelt of sweat, and loud cheers sounded throughout the place. It was time to fight.

The large man came running at me, swinging his fist as an upper-hook. I grabbed his fist easily and trapped it behind his back.
I've learnt to never make the first move.
I kick his back, causing his arm to let out a little crack an a groan of pain.

You are as ugly as dirt, you worthless shit. Her words ring though my mind, causing me to weaken my defensive stand a little. He takes that chance to punch me, knocking me to the ground.

Get up, you weakling!
You rat, I always hated you!
Why did you have to be born?

Her words go through me head over and over while a guy goes to the speakers and announces; "and the winner is... They first person to ever beat Shadow is-"

"NO!" I pull myself up. "Not yet!" My voice silences everyone.

"But Shadow, you already lost-"

"No I didn't! Not yet!"

I run towards him with all my strength, give him a kick to the face then a uppercut, making him fall to the ground. I bend down over him and give him two last punches, causing the back of his head to bleed.

"Not... Yet..." I sigh, falling to the ground, where everything goes black.
