Monica Avery

Darth Vader

Monica woke up on a soft bed under a light blue blanket and she could hear the song "A Sky Full Of Stars" blaring on the radio. She tried getting up but her head was spinning so she laid back down and that's when it all came back to her. A man had been in Terrance's room and had hit her in the head with her gun and now she was in someone's house. She started panicking and stood up fast forgetting her head was pounding so she fell on the ground. The music stopped and she could hear footsteps coming closer. The man walked in smiling and then he saw she was on the floor so he helped her up and laid her back down on the bed. Monica was confused. "What's going on?" She asked. "Who are you?" "Oh now I get how weird it was for Darth Vader." He said. Monica was really confused and it wasn't helping that her head was pounding. In the best Darth Vader voice he could muster up he said, "Monica I am your father." And then he laughed at himself as if it was no big deal. But for some reason Monica didn't act shocked, she slowly stood up so it didn't bother her head and she said, "So your the asshole drunk guy who almost killed my mom after she had me." And then she punched him square in the mouth and kicked him in the sweet spot. He groaned and grabbed both spots kneeling down in pain. So Monica sprinted away as fast as she could because he one leg still wasn't totally better (she was supposed to still be on her crutches).

She had been running for 10 minutes when she finally saw a road. This was the road she had gone on when coming home from the airport to go see Kimberly for the first time. The drive was the 30 minutes so walking would take even longer and she didn't want to run because her head was in a lot of pain. She started walking as fast as she could with a limp and a throbbing headache when she saw a truck coming so she put her thumb out and started waving it frantically. The car pulled to a stop so she got in and then she saw it was her father who was in the truck she tried to run but he slammed the door on her finger.

Lib had been looking for Monica since last night and she was getting worried. Monica had gone to see Terrance and she hadn't come back so Lib assumed she was staying the night because she was so sad but today when she got to the hospital and went up to Terrance's room Monica wasn't there. "Excuse me." She said to the nurse. "Oh hello." "Hi um my friend came up here last night and I assumed she slept over but she's not here have you seen her?" "No I'm sorry nobody has been in the room since yesterday morning and people aren't aloud to sleepover if they aren't family of guardians." Lib was totally dumbfounded so she ran to the elevator to head to the police station to file a missing persons report.

Being kidnapped was not the way she would ever want to meet her abusive father especially not handcuffed to the kitchen table with him feeding her dinner because he didn't trust her with a fork, knife or even a spoon. Monica hated him one because if it wasn't for him she would have known her mother her whole life and would be able to be more sad over her mother dying and two because he shot the love of her life and so far he wouldn't even tell her why. "Why?" She asked spitting out the food all over him. He slowly wiped it off and then looked at her. "Why what?" He asked. "Why did you shoot him, why are you out to ruin my life?" "I am not out to ruin your life." He started. "Yes I was a horrible man when I was younger I drank to much and I beat the love of my life, and yes I got worse after she gave you away. But after I was let go 15 years after being put into prison I made it my life's mission to find you and kill your mother." "Okay so your not a horrible crazy person now?" She asked sarcastically. "I never said I wasn't anymore." "Who the hell cares, you just said you wanted to kill my mother." He starred at her and then started speaking again. "She took my daughter from me." He stated. "Um no duh she gave me away so she wouldn't have you beating me to, she got me out of harms way which just put her into it more." He glared at Monica for a bit a she starred right back not blinking or looking away. "I walked into that house looking for a women by the name Kimberly Avery and when I thought it was her I shot your boyfriend whatever his name is," "Terrance." She interrupted. "Yah him. I never meant to hurt him but I did want her dead and she died all on her own so now all I have to do is keep you and make sure nobody finds you." Her eyes widened in surprise. She had known this all along but hearing it come out of his mouth made it ten times scarier.

Lib had told the police everything and immediately they got a small search party of 6 police, a German Shepard and a hound set up and they alerted states within a 2,000 mile radius. She had brought Monica's crutches so the two dogs had to sniff it to get Monica's sent and then the search party left. Lib's pocket was vibrating. She pulled out her phone and it was Roger. She got so excited because it had to be news about Monica. "Hello Roger did you find her?" She asked excitement in her voice. "No." He stated firmly. Then she heard the phone moving around. "LIB!" Elise yelled. "Get Monica because Terrance is awake and he wants to see her." Her finger accidentally hit speaker as she dropped the phone and on the other line she could hear Roger tell Elise about Monica and then Roger's phone hit the ground because Elise drops it.
