1... 2... 3... 4...

Silently counted as red liquid streams from my thighs to my bathroom tub floor.

5... 6... 7... 8...

"There.... That should be enough... Right?" I ask myself, as the red liquid continues to fall. I'm 16, and I have to deal with a abusive mother. That's all. She works from  6 am-7 pm. From 7-10 she goes to a bar. She brings a different man home every night and let's them bang her till 11-1. Then from 2-3 she wakes me up just to beat me. From 3-5 she's asleep. And the whole cycle repeats everyday.

****knock knock****

I being the stupid person I am walked to the front door in my shorts, and didn't notice the blood dripping down my legs. I opened the door to find a a old woman with dark purple eyes and blonde-ish grey hair with my unconscious and intoxicated mother on her back. I sigh and look the woman in the eyes. "Hello Ma'am, I'm Garack, and so found your mot- oh my!" She started saying, but then noticed the blood covering my legs. "My my! Come with me, we'll just leave your mum here!" She said, concern and worry on her face. I liked the sound of getting a night off from my mothers beatings so I agreed. We left her on the couch and I followed her to her wagon.

(Time skip by your lazy ass author XD)

We arrived at- the Castle of Clarines! Man am I happy I decided to come! I thought to myself. On our journey there, I told Garack what had happened and why, and we had agreed that she'd see what she could do to have me stay in the same area as her and away from my mother in Tomburun. (A/N- don't remember if it's spelt that way but ima spell it that way anyway a XD) but knowing that she meant IN THE CASTLE IF CLARINES! I really hoped I got a yes I can stay from second price, Zen Wasteria and first prince, Izana Wasteria.

She helped me out and a little boy and a red head helped me out, helping me keep the cloth that Garack out on my thighs stay put. They brought me to a bed in a room full of medicinal herbs, and got to work. Except Garack seemed to disappear. I found out their names from their conversations. "Shirayuki, can you get me a clean cloth?" Said the little boy to the red he'd, know as Shrayuki. "Yes Ryu!" Said Shirayuki to the little boy, Ryu. Ha. The little boy seems to know more than her... That's odd... I thought to myself, then drifted unconscious.
