Chapter 1

RAVEN'S POV

Where am I? I don't remember being anywhere close to an ally. I look around, no one's anywhere to be seen. I guess I'll just leave. I started to get up when I felt daggers on my arms, I look down to realize, that's what happened.

Adrenaline soon filled me, They're probably looking for me, there gonna take me to an insane asylum and think I'm crazy. I need to run away, now. I carefully got up and ran, where to? I don't know, just somewhere away from them.

***Flashback***

I finally got out of school "Yes, freedom!" I practically screamed to my friend, Rose.

"I know right?! Hey, do you think I can come over later today?" she asked. I quickly turned around shocked, why'd she ask? She always comes over after school.

Obviously she saw it and calmed me down "Calm down Rave, I was just making sure! I'll come over around six then, see ya!" and then she left.

I walked into my house and went straight into my room an turned on some Pierce The Veil before lying down on my bed.

"Raven, come down here right now." my father said, I didn't hear him come home. I looked at the time and realized that it had been an hour since I layed down.I walked down the hall and found my dad laying on the couch drunk, you could tell. "What I tell you Raven? I told you, you have to have the house clean and dinner ready for when I come home, is that too much to ask?!" my father yelled not even two inches from my face.

"Sorry sir, I'll get right to it." I ran off towards the kitchen, only to be tugged back by my father's hand on my wrist, getting tighter as it stayed. I wanted to scream, but I knew it'd only make it worse. This has happened before, ever since my mom died two years ago.

"You've gotten away with it too many times, I can't risk letting you continue to mess up." That's all I heard and everything went black.
