chp 1

=mild warning: mention of disability and medical issues and sensitive topics like murder, rape, bullying and orphans=

   It was nearly 4 pm and the sun was showing signs it was going to start setting. It was that time of year where the day would end fast and the weather was getting chilly.

     Cristal was walking down the friendly street looking at her feet, occasionally touching at her ear and jaw, small line of dry blood was getting overlapped by a fresh streak. Someone had yanked out her right hearing aid out her ear during lunch.
      
     Still having most of the right hearing aid in her sweater pocket she counted the parts she was able to rescue from the dirty cafeteria floor.   
    Strangely enough, Cristal wasn't crying or even seemed upset at what had happened to her that noon.
      
  She kept walking by her self down the orange leaf filled sidewalk, her little shoes stepping in each crack of the pavement. Her foster parents were surely going to be worried; her school bus was supposed to drop her off at her house around 3, school has ended at 2 o' clock but Cristal decided to hop off the first few blocks headed towards her home.

    She was pretty familiar with the streets despite only having been living with her foster parents for two months, giving her the confidence that she could make it home safely. The neighborhood was known for being safe after all, safe and wealthy. Her foster parents were lawyers hence why they had a house in a nicer area of town. 

  Passing by a particular olive green  house, Cristal noticed the police tape covering the perimeter of the decently sized home. A young couple had been murdered last night by a serial killer but were barely found that afternoon. Cristal didn't fully understand what was going on, until she saw two hospital carriers with the covered bodies on top. She had only seem something like that once in her life while at the Foster Care center.

  "Hey retard!" A boy that seemed to be in perhaps 5th grade called out from his group of friends once he saw the little girl standing there not knowing what to do. He attended Cristal's school and was one of her many bullies. Of course the girl didn't answer since that same boy had pulled her aid out by force. He and his bully friends walked towards her chuckling and talking about her. Once he reaches Cristal, he grabs her shoulder and pointed towards the bodies that were being put in an ambulance.
      "You see that, they are dead. Someone stabbed them and probably had sex with their dead bodies." He said with a gross laugh.
    
    Cristal looked over to the ambulance now with its doors closed getting ready to depart. A face of confusion and slight fear began to appear on her face.
"Yeah, there was alot of blood" another kid said with a crooked smile.
    
Clearly disturbed by the kids surrounding her, she tried to pull away from his grasp only making his grip on her shoulder become stronger.

    The boy was bigger than her both physically and mentally, he was those kids that found out what porn was at age 9 and now thought he was superior. 

" Freak, you want to feel what they felt?" The first boy asked making Cristal turn to face him

"Haha ew Andrew, you like the retard orphan? She can't even hear you y'know. " Another one said

  "No, she can. I only took out one of her eat shits." Andrew replied with a chuckle.

He reaches his hand for Cristal's surviving hearing aid. Her eyes growing wide with fear she tried pushing him away and to make a run for it but he pulled her by the hair making her stay still.

Letting out a shriek of fear, Cristal started breathing fast and heavy. The boys laugh and continue to harass the poor girl.

"Hey what the hell do you think you're doing !" A deep male voice speaks out to the boys bullying Cristal. One of the kids perks his head up and seeing an officer that was walking towards them to stop their bad doings. "Andrew! A cop is coming!"  Andrew hesitates but let's go of Cristal's hair causing her to fall to the floor, the boys start running as the cop yells out for them but he doesn't think of running to get them.

Cristal, dirty and struggling to breathe looks at the officer who has potentially saved her.
"Hey girly are you okay ?" He says with a gentle voice helping her up
Cristal nods and signs a weak "Thank you".
The officer gasps once he notices the trail of brown blood that had gone down from her ear to her shirt.

"Did does kids do this ?" He asks making Cristal look at him.

  She tries to sign a "No" but the officer already could tell that his accusation was true.
    "Where are your parents?"
    Cristal signs  "at home"
   The officer only knew the basics of ASL that being 'Hello , goodbye. Yes and no. Perhaps 'thank you'  so understanding the child was a bit of a challenge
    "Let's take you home then, it's getting dark."
