From Converse to Crown

Chaper 1 The Beginning

My name is Taylor Eden Jahzara Tate and I'm 16 or so I thought and this where my story starts. It was the beginning of summer the sun was shining so bright and I was waking up from the best sleep of my life since school ended. I layed in my bed for about 5 minutes thinking about how my summer was going to be, hoping to have summer romance and fun since I just moved to a small town in New Orleans . I finally got out of bed and start getting ready for the day. the first thing I did was take a shower and brush my teeth. I didn't even notice how empty the house was so I carried on without a thought. I pick out some cute summer wear, which included a Lacey floral white shirt with some black short and black and white converses. I finally look at myself in the mirror and examine my brown skin and my curly black hair and thinking to myself "this is as good as it gets, I guess".

When I was finally done with getting ready and went to my mother's room to talk , I opened the the door to find her room empty. I wasn't worried I just thought she went to the store so I didn't even bother to call up stairs to see if my sister was there because it around 11am on Saturday I know she's probably at her job. I went on with my day starting with breakfast. I cooked pancakes and sausage and decided to go want in the den where the our flat screen tv was. I was about half way done when I noticed how peaceful it was , my next thoughts was where are my dogs. l have two puppies that are pomsky, Beau and Beauty it is kinda strange that they didn't even greet me or beg for some food unless they did something bad.

"Beau........Beauty." I called

no answers so I got up and took my plate to the kitchen. I called for them again and I finally heard a whimper in reply. I start walking toward where I thought it was coming from and it came from under the table in the dining room. I started getting closer to the sound of whimpering when it finally came into view it was Beauty lying on the floor with black liquid stains on her white and grey fur. I went in closer but she growl at me but I called her name and she calmed down and came out from under the table so normal it looked like she wasn't even hurt or guilty. I examined her so carefully to find that she wasn't hurt at all. I told Beauty to stay so I could get a towel. I came back with a towel and pick her up and took her to the tub for a bath I placed her in the tub and left to get some shampoo for the pup. While I left I called for Beau usally they are in the same area as the other but I guess Beau was some where else.

"Beau...Beau.." I called nothing no bark,no whine,or whimper in response.

I went back to Beauty a gave her bath, I smelled the liquid to see what it was but it didn't smell familiar at all it was mixture between copper, oil, and vomit it smell god awful. When I was done I call my mother, she picked up after the second ring.

"Hey momma, where are you because som.... " I was cut off in mid sentence.

"Taylor call Chris tell him to take you home...I love you so much..." she said in a breathy tone. I heard some grunts in the background.

"what's the going on" I yelled trying not to cry but it was too late for that. She hung up.

I redialed her five time then decided to call my sister. She picked up quickly too. I said "momma's in trouble" my tone was kinda choked, she didn't reply but could hear foot steps and grunts as if she's in a fight or running " Tori !" I screamed after few moments she said something "momma said call Chris...do it now tell ... Him what ... She said. "she sound breathless. "Are you okay? Are y'all in the same place" I said next thing I know she said " Yes and yes,I don't have time for this SHIT call Chris he'll know." "I love you."I cried when she said that, we were never the very affectionate towards each other then the line went dead right before that I heard the oddest sound like a screech.

I hurriedly called Chris my godfather he picked up fast.

"Chris" I spoke in a whining voice from the crying and I never cried that probably how he knew something was wrong.

"what wrong Taylor" he spoke in his deep voice.

" My momma and Tori they're " I stuttered "something wrong with them ... Trouble " I heard a car door slam on his side of the line "momma told me to call you and tell to take me h~home and Tori is I don't know she told the same thing t~to call you and that they're together. " I finished.

"Taylor, pack essential I'm on the way." The call ended.
