CHAPTER 1 - the birth of evil

I was walking to get the groceries when I saw her in the alley, a beautiful woman with long golden hair, she was the most popular woman in town until her husband turned everyone against her, her name was Rose Edwards. Now she hides alone in the back streets of Hitch Hiker Valley.

A few months passed but every time I walked past, she was still there. There is one thing I realised, she was changing. She was sort of glowing, I don’t mean there is light coming from her skin. She is just glowing. It is now like she is invisible to everyone around her, her name is never spoken, and her voice is never heard.

My name is Bonnie Taylor and I am the oldest of 4 children, I live in a small cottage , well it is very small, you see when I was 3 my father was caught cheating with another woman so my mother and I ran away and well this is where we came. We have lived here ever since.

I walk down the street but I stand out from the other kids, I am poor. They all make their way to school in there neatly ironed uniforms and their clean shiny hair. I have none of that. I have never been to school as my mum said she can teach us all we need to know. I have always dwelled upon what my life would be like if my father was around. Would I be like the other kids?

11 months had passed I had not been out the house much but the only reason I left was because my cat hadn’t came home for many days . I had looked everywhere apart from the alley behind the grocery-store. I made my way down the alley which was riddled by the stench of rotting vegetables.

“Mittens, Mittens...Puss, puss, puss” there was nothing but silence. Until I heard something it was almost silent, but I heard it. I made my way down the alley to find Rose Edwards cuddled up in a corner.

“Rose, are you okay?”

“I’m fine go away”

I didn’t listen to her I approached, I heard the noise again it was crying. But it sounded like a baby. I peeked my head over her shoulder to see a baby.
