Uprising

Chapter 18: Mom......

"W-What?" Quick responded in a heartbeat

"Come and hug your mother or do I have to call your father" The voice said

Quick opened his eye to see a woman in front of him. She was short for her age but she wore a long sleeved T-shirt with denim pants and wore a familiar jacket on her shoulders. She had dark blue hair tied up into a bun. This was Amanda Grey, Quick's mother.

"M-Mom?" Quick says standing up

He couldn't believe it, there was his mother standing in front of him. He couldn't believe it at all, she was the most important thing in his life. Before her death, those two were best friends.

"Yes Marshall it's me" she stood in front of him

Quick immediately tried to hug her. The sentiment wasn't returned. Amanda slapped him and slapped him hard. He fell to the ground; she had never struck him like that before. He was confused as he stood up.

"How dare you let them do this to you! They even took your eye" Amanda said in pain

"I did what I had to for my team, for my friends, for my family!" Quick slammed his fists down

"And what were we?! Me and your father what were we?!" Amanda looked at him

"Dad was a rat that tried to kill us both! I killed the piece of shit!" Quick says angry

"You didn't save me Quick!" Amanda gasped and covered her mouth

"What did you just say?" Quick asked

"The day your father tried to kill me and you he only half succeeded" her tone changing coldly

Quick grabbed his head. This wasn't true, this couldn't be possible. He helped his mother up after everything was clear. After he had killed his father, and everything was safe.

Quick tried to remember that day, no matter how much it hurt. Quick had been walking from school, when he heard a crash in his house. He had ran into the house to see his father with daggers in his hands, he was yelling harsh words.

"You dirty whore! imma see if your cunt is as full of shit as your mouth is!"

Quick sped into action, he struck his father in the head with a pot. His father dropped the daggers, as they fell Quick picked them up. His eyes were full of hatred as he slashed at his father's stomach, then his throat. As his father fell everything went calm for a minute, too calm for a death. Quick's father smiled even after he was killed by his own son.

"Your........name.......is......now.....Quick" he smiled as he died

"This is what you remember Quick and this did happen but you didn't see one thing" Amanda said

After Quick's father died, Amanda had been slashed in the throat she bled to death before Quick had killed his father.
