CREE
Cree is a rather diffident boy. Although he wouldn't like to think so, that's just how he was. Being raised in an abusive home environment, he did have his outbursts of rage,but once seen what he could do, he was afraid of himself. He later learned how to control most of his outbursts; although he feared the worst. He lived in Capitol Hill, Seattle. His mother, Sadie Brown, was a stereotypical hippy; believing in peace and of course food which came with love. His father, Mike Allen, was a mess he was neither a stereotypical hippy or a dad. His motto was

"I don't need to belong anywhere; I've got the bar down the road."

Cree hated him for this; he hated him for everything. He hated him for stealing his hard earned money, smoking and drinking in the house, threatening to kill his mother, and hitting her. Too many times, Cree has tried to stop him from stabbing her to death. He's called the police once in awhile and life was good  until Mike came knocking again; swearing that he's changed and recognized his mistakes. But Cree knew those words all too well.

The only chance he got to get away from the depressing dump was school. He had friends, decent grades, and most of all, he wasn't home. He did often worry about Mike coming home early from work and attacking his mother. Every once in a while he would,which left Cree broken to pieces.
Despite the vexatious teachers and stupid kids he liked going to school. Not only because of friends but also because of Chrissy, short for Chrysanthemum. He sees her walk down the halls during fourth and fifth period. But all too well he knew that he couldn't have her. His family problems would get in the way and eventually Mike would threaten to kill her too. Plus she liked Brady, Cree's closest friend.

He thinks to himself a lot. For different reasons. He wonders if he could keep up with Mike. He wonders if he could keep his mom safe for at least a day. He wonders if people even notice him. He wonders if maybe, just maybe, Chryssy might like him back. He wonders if he's just having a nightmare and in reality his father is actually really loving and his mother doesn't have scars or deep cuts. But he knows better. He knows that life isn't fair to anybody. He knows that happiness doesn't really exist...
