Sally Stitches

Once a long time ago, in a town by the woods, lived a girl named Sally. Sally was a beautiful eleven year old little girl with thick, curly black hair and eyes as blue as the sea. Aside from her beauty Sally was very kind and smart. She helped all the children with their school work even though she was homeschooled, and everyone loved her. The only thing Sally didn't like about herself was that she was rich.

You may be asking yourself what little girl in her right mind wouldn't like getting the newest dresses, nicest toys, and best tutors available, but that's not what was bothering Sally. It was the fact that her parents were never there for her when she needed them, her mother missed her first steps, her father missed her first words and neither of them bother coming home for her birthday. She was practically raised by her maid and butler and was lucky if she saw her parents once a month. Don't get her wrong she loved her maid, Olivia and the maid's husband, the butler, Carl like a mother and father and would gladly move in with them if she had to, but she just misses her mother and father.

But her feelings weren't mutual. Olivia hated Sally and was jealous of her beauty and popularity. Carl was jealous of her wealth and smartness. So they taught Sally a game. It was called Run Away, to play Sally had to write a letter to her parents saying she wants to run away and that their the reason. Then she had to put her heaviest, prettiest, most expensive dolls into a large pillow case and knot it shut with a rope. Finally she had to hide somewhere in the house. Sally happily complied and quickly fell in love with the game. After they found her they ate Sally's favorite dinner, chicken parmesan and spaghetti, when Olivia said, "Your parents are coming home tomorrow, Sally"

"Yay! But I thought mom and dad wasn't coming home till' next week!? " Sally replied excitedly. She was missing them terribly.

"It was a surprise just for you, they wanted us not to tell you yet but we couldn't resist."

After dinner Olivia and Carl sent Sally to her room to go to bed. They were worried because it made their plan short on time.

"Carl we have to do it tonight! It won't work unless it's tonight now because of her stupid parents!" Olivia said frustrated

"I just think we should wait. You know, make sure the plan is perfect." argued Carl

"Are you wussing out on me" Olivia said knowing that would make him stop arguing

At two am that night they woke up Sally. "Wassgoinon" she said

"Your parents want us to take you to the cabin and they'll be there when you wake up." promised Carl. Instantly Sally woke up. The cabin is a log cabin that's about a mile away into the woods by her house, but it was actually a pretty easy walk. Her favorite part was the lake right next to it and the fact that her best friend has a cabin just across the lake.

"Then what are we waiting for let's go! Livy, Carl, I just want you guys know I love you." said Sally. This freaked Carl out, it felt like she knew what about to happen. As soon as they walked out the door Sally's whole world went pitch dark.

When Sally woke up the first thing she saw was her room in the cabin so she figured it was just a dream. Then she heard the words that made her sure that's not what happened, for she heard, 'I love you, my sweet Sally. I'm sorry." It was a voice she knew as well as her own, it was Carl's voice. Then she noticed she couldn't move her arms or legs, she looked at the corners of her bed and saw her hands and legs were handcuffed to them.

"Livy, Carl what's going on! What's happening, help me!" Sally screamed while crying. She had a feeling this was one of her last moments alive and they weren't going to be pleasant.

"Sally, Sally, Sally, we are not going to help you sweetie. You know what, I will help you, and I will give you advice. Scream as much as you can and feel all the pain you can because no one is going to hear you and watch the blood spill down your face before you die. "
