Last Assassin

Chapter 1: How it all started

It was a regular day at home. I went to school then came back, ate, did homework, fed the dog, and went in my room. My parents are nice to me. They always knew what to say when I am down. But you must thought I'm spoiled, well sadly I'm not like those kids. They don't suffer any physical pain, child abuse, and starvation at least once. My days aren't like them because their filthy rich parents buy them things they want SOOO BADLY. I wake up, get yelled at, go to school then come home, get slap by my mom, do homework, feed the dog, get thrown into my room by my dad, and rest until evening. Everyday has the same routine except Friday when both parents are gone and I get to cover up my injuries, bruises, cuts, any thing that my parents did to me during the week.

Hi I'm Skylar. I'm 6 years old, I'm the only child, and I only have one friend, its my dog Buster. He hangs around in my room to comfort me since I'm the one who takes care of him everyday. My mom is a lawyer and my dad is a construction worker. Both my parents wanted a boy but they got a girl. So they had put my name on the internet for adoption, that's how bad they want a boy instead. I called the cops once and they warned me, that if I do that again, they will put me outside with no food or water and have me die from starvation. I sneak back inside every Friday so I can eat and drink, but I go back outside when I'm done. My parents let me in around Sunday or Monday so I can get cleaned, eat, drink, and get ready for school. They do this once a week so I learn my lesson multiple times when I did or didn't do anything. My teacher, the councilor, and the principal worry about me when they see my bruises, cuts, bandages, and injuries. Every student that's in my class stares at me since I hide myself from the open world thanks to my parents.

I write my feelings in my secret hidden diary so I can feel a little better but it never works since it keeps happening every day, I wish every birthday for it to be over and its not, I think at night thinking it will be a better day tomorrow when it isn't. So yea my life is a living nightmare, but this one faithful day turned it around.

Mom- "Why is there cops outside our house?!"

Dad- "What did you do Skylar!"

Skylar- "I did nothing! Why do you must blame everything on me when something bad happens!?"

The cops busted through the front and back so my parents won't escape. They told my parents about my call I did a few days ago and said "child abuse." Those two words had given me chills and the chief had put me behind I'm so the other cops and secure my parents before they hurt me anymore. My parents told me they will find me before I can say goodbye when they die. I called the cops when my parents were downstairs and they couldn't hear me from my closet. The chief told me it was going to be okay. They will gather the most important things that I need, even my personal diary. My clothes were ruined, so they bought me a few new pairs so I can wear them at the orphanage.

The orphanage seemed nice every where. Other kids would stop to see what is going on when a cop comes or new child arrives to be taken with a new family. There was a girl named Angel and she didn't have any friends, she had bullies picking on her. I had to do something that someone would do to help her out. So I confronted the bullies.

Skylar- "Stop picking on her."

Liam- "Oh and what are you going to do. Punch me? Kick me? Come on weak bones."

He was right about the weak part but I grabbed the only thing my grandpa gave me to protect myself. I pulled my dagger to his throat and warned the others who follow Liam that if they ever pick on Angel again he would be the first to go. They were scared that I would do that so they avoided me when I was friend's with Angel afterwards.

Skylar- "Are you ok?"

Angel- "Yea. I'm more worried about you. Are you ok?"

Skylar- "Yea. I'm Skylar."

Angel- "Angel. Its nice to meet you. No one ever does that for me, but you will be the first for me to have you as my first best friend."

Skylar- "Cool. How many beds are in a room?"

Angel- "There are 2. I have an open bed. Would you like to have it?"

Skylar- "Sure."

I heard the chief talking to the owner and she seemed nice. She gave us homework we need to do, food, drinks, and a few toys that we like. Every year passed and I gotten older and waited for someone to adopt me or Angel. I'm 12 and so is Angel. Miss Patterson shows any family to every room and whose in it. Almost every one of them chose one or both from the room that's being shown. I'm at a 6th grade level and I have been getting straight A's. All my wounds have healed except the deep cut my dad pulled on me when I wasn't paying attention.

Angel- "How are you so good at all the classes."

Skylar- "I secretly go to tutoring when my parents weren't looking or at work. And I also went on a website that also helped me learn even more with what I was being taught."

Angel- "Lucky. So how did you get here anyway. I wanted to ask when you arrived here but it seemed to sudden."

Skylar- "Oh my parents got arrested for child abuse. That's why I had so many wounds from my head to feet."

Angel- "I'm sorry to hear that. My parents left me when I was only 4. I was homeless until the same cop brought me here at the age of 6, the same age as you were when you arrived."

Skylar- "So we both had some pretty bad childhoods. Abuse and Homeless."

Angel- "Oh and thanks again for helping me with Liam. He is never this scared when it comes to a girl. But when you pulled the knife on him, it proved you got some talent and guts to do that."

I grabbed my dagger and threw at the target that was up on the wall and we both laughed when I hit Liam's face again but in his eye. Liam was the boy who decided to pick on Angel for awhile until I showed up and told him to stop.
