"Dad no she's just a little girl!", he yelled at him. He was beaten up and his body hurted as hell, but someway he found the strength to try and protect her.

He didn't even know who it was. Nor what she did there. He just knew that his father had gone nuts so she wasn't safe there.

"Go back to the basement Zitao!", he yelled back. But Tao didn't want to listen. He wanted to help the girl. But he knew he was too weak. He would never be able to beat his father in his state.

~~~

His father had left the house for some hours so Tao decided to go and see the girl.

"Hello?", he called as he put on the lights.

"No please not again!", she begged as she hid in the corner.

"Don't worry I won't hurt you. I'm Tao. I want to help you", he tried to get closer to her.

She looked awful, she was naked and her body was full of bruises. Not as bad as his own but still bad. But even like that, he thought she was the most beautiful person he had ever seen. She was as pretty as his mother...

He quickly ran upstairs and took one of his mothers dresses. His father had burned most of them but Tao was able to save some and hid them well. Then he ran back to her. She was still sitting in the same position.

"Here, you must be cold", the boy reached out the dress to her.

She looked at him and then at the dress. She reached out her hand but quickly pulled it back again.

"It hurts", her voice was soft, "My body hurts"

"May I-", he hesitated but decided that this wasn't the moment to be a coward, "May I help you?"

After some silence she nodded and he helped her in his mother's dress. He noticed a wound on her. It was bloody. "Can I clean that?", he asked and she nodded. So he took some stuff and tried his best to clean up and bandage it. The wound being the word "Brat", cut into her skin with a knife, on the left end of her stomach.

As soon as he finished helping her and giving her some water, the boy heard the front door open.

"Oh no, my father! I need to go now! I'll come back later!", he ran away quickly to the basement where he belonged.

Of course his father found out that he helped the girl. So that evening when he punished him, he gave him a double dosis.

He also gave the boy a choise;

1) He would ignore the girl and stay in the basement like always.

2) He was allowed to befriend the girl but then he would get double dosis punishment and watch a movie.

Tao didn't know what he meant with 'watch a movie', but if it meant that he could help the girl he didn't care.

The next day, his father got him out of the basement saying that it was 'movie time' he took Tao to the room where the girl was and he tied the boy to a chair.

He did awful things to the girl and Tao had to watch. She screamed his name for help while she cried. His father raped her right in front of his eyes. He couldn't do anything but watch as tears ran down his face.

When his father was done he would untie Tao and leave the room. The boy ran to the girl and held her in his arms as she cried until she would fall asleep. He then layed her on the bed and leave to the basement where his father was waiting. There he would get the punishment for hugging her.

~~~

His father was gone for a while again and Tao had a plan. He would help the girl escape.

Everything was okay until he heard his father's car park in front of the house.

"Run!", he whispered. And they both ran towards the backdoor.

"What are you brats doing?!", his father yelled as he stood in front of them in the doorway.

The boy didn't know what took over him but he kicked the older male in his private area. He fell down and squirmed on the ground.

"RUN!", he yelled again.

The girl managed to pass him but then he grabbed Tao's leg.

"Tao!!", she screamed in her sweet voice.

"Go, Princess!", he yelled back. And after a moment she nodded and ran away. That was the last time he saw her or heard her voice.

His father was furious. He used Tao this time for the things that he usually did with the girl and when he was done he would beat him up until he was on the verge of dying.

Only one thought was on the boy's mind though.

I don't know the name of my princess...
