Chapter 3: I Faint in the Arms of a Stranger
This chapter starts out 5 years later. Remember at the beginning of the story Willow was 15 so now she's going to be 20.
The song is the Immigrant Song by Led Zeppilen. Don't listen to it yet though!! Wait until I say so! Ok? Ok. Oh! And if you do listen to it, listen to it on low volume it's a loud song, so...yeah. Now! On with the story.
Willow's POV
I stayed like that for a long time.
About 15 minutes after I curled up in a ball I heard people enter, muffled, quiet talking, yelling, slapping, and by far the most scary one was...
Two gunshots.
Both of my parents were lying, dead on the nasty, stained, dirty floor. There were two identical bullet holes in their heads, both had pools of blood where they lay in peace.
Suddenly they got up and headed towards me. They were mumbling, but I couldn't hear them.
I started to walk backwards because they were getting closer to me, slowly as if they were agonizingly taking their sweet time to scare me, but I stood strong.
Then it started. My mom started screaming bloody murder and my dad started yelling at me saying, "You should have saved us!! Your such a disappointment to us all, to our family! You should have been the one to die, not us!! So now your time must end!! IT MUST EN---"
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BE--
I slapped my alarm clock and sat up sweating and out of breath. I wiped the sweat off of my face and got out of bed. I walked over to my window, opened it and climbed out onto the fire escape. I made sure to grab my phone before I did so.
See I know what you might be thinking. Why is she dreaming about her parents trying to kill her and yelling at her if her parents told her it's not her fault and that she shouldn't blame it on herself? Well I only started to have dreams like that because of an........um, well, incident that happened about a year after my parents death.
So here's what happened. When my parents were killed I escaped after finding them dead. I obviously called the cops and they arrested the killers because they were still there. Well since I was under aged and couldn't live on my own I would've been sent to live with relatives....if I had had any left. Yeah both of my parents were only children in their families and both of my sets of grandparents died because of old age, at different times, when I was younger so I don't really remember them.
Anyway.
The police sent me to an orphanage to start a foster program. Lets just say that the people who came to foster me were friends of my parents. They didn't have any kids so I was going to be alone.
They were crap. Horrible.
The second we got to their house I was shoved into the attic to live basically as Cinderella. Eventually they got arrested because of child abuse and because apparently they were also murderers. They have a life sentence, so I don't have to worry about them any more because the day they got arrested was also my 18th birthday. I had been working three jobs so I had a lot of money because I saved it aaaaallllllllll up!! 'Cause I'm smart like that.
I had so much that I bought my own apartment, motorcycle, and car. I use the Car for everywhere I go, but I use my motorcycle to do my secret crime fighting. I know, I know, why not just let the Ninja do their jobs? Because they can't be in 10 places at once.
So while they are handling the big crimes, I handle the smaller crimes. So far I haven't ever encountered the Ninja while I'm crime fighting.
