The Golden Cresent

Chapter 9: Leon Part 2

Leon's Point of view

After I say bye to Dakota I walk into my house and go upstairs crashing onto my bed and fall asleep.

NIGHT TIME FALLS

I wake up with the sensation of exhaustion, tired from hours before. I walk in the bathroom only to here my mom and dad fighting. I hate when they do that. I take a shower, get dressed and head downstairs. The yelling got louder as I went down the steps and into the kitchen. I walk towards the refrigerator and I look over to see my mom on the floor and a smashed beer bottle in my dads hand. I put my food back into the fridge as my anger boils and I slam the fridge and punch my dad in the face repeatedly until he is unconscious. After I'm done with him I run over to my mom and start to aid her when I hear banging on the front door.

Dakota's Point of view

As night fell I woke up to the sound of yelling outside. I head to the bathroom to take a shower and get dressed. I walk downstairs and head out the house silently walking down the street towards the house.

Leon's Point of view

I put my mother down on the couch after cleaning her up and go check the door only to find out its Dakota! I open the door. "Hey, uh what are you doing here its kinda late?" "Oh I actually heard a lot of yelling so I wanted to figure out what was going on." she explains "Oh umm about that I actually that was my parents and umm you might want to come in it's getting chilly out here considering your wearing sweat pants and a hoodie." I say gesturing in the house "Thank  you" we walk into the kitchen where there is a bunch of glass everywhere "Hey  um watch-" "Ow!"..... "your step" I say warning her "Yeah thanks for the warning heh, omg your hand and is that your dad? what the heck happened?" "Long story" I say it like it is " I have time" she says. After we cleaned up and put my mom upstairs we decided to go downstairs and chill but we hear a sound coming from the kitchen turns out it was my dad with a knife. "DAD WHAT IN THE HECK ARE YOU DOING!" I say yelling He doesn't say anything but starts to swing the knife at me but when I blocked it Dakota came in front of me and blocks it cutting her arm making her scream out in excruciating pain. She gave me the time to lunge at him knocking his head hard against the wall making him go unconscious. I quickly get up to grab bandages for Dakota. She was crying because of the pain. I clean the wound and wrap it up. We were both exhausted from everything that had happened that night so we laid on the couch and fell asleep.
