It was a lonely Saturday morning in my frigid basement. All I could here was the screams of my parents,as they said things that were hurtful. I am a thirteen year old girl named Elizabeth Samuels. I have brown hair with natural blonde highlights. I also contain of light green eyes with a hint of hazel. I lie there under my covers, staring at the ceiling , wishing that the yelling would decrease. Then that's when I heard glass shattering ,and footsteps ,making their way up the ladder to my basement. I quickly turned toward the wall and closed my eyes.
"ELIZABETH!" My father screeched At the top of his lungs.
I scrambled from my position to a slouch."Yes father." I answered.
I stood there as if I knew my father was going to strike me with a belt ,but instead he passed out. Right there, right in front of me lay my father unconscious.
"Mom!!" I yelled at the top of my week lungs.
"What do you fricken want Eliza , or whatever your name is."
"Well father is kinda, well umm he kind of passed out!"
There was a sudden, but silent pause throughout our little shack-like home."Well, why should I care Elizabeth , leave him there. I guess you can skip your beating tonight." My mother said in an annoyed voice.
So I did. Time had passed and soon enough it was morning. And like the night before my father lay there on the shaggy chilly floor. I wasn't allowed out of my basement until my morning beating , or until my mother called me down for breakfast. So I decided to read a book I have read about 10 times, The Blue Lady. It is a fantastic book about how a women saves a blue creature from a dragon and gets transformed into a blue lady! After I had finished the book for the 11th time I heard my dad waking up from being conscious.
"Elizabeth, get me a beer!" My father said , sounding high.I ran to the kitchen ignoring my mother. I then started searching for my father's beer through the cupboards. But I couldn't find any. Then my father yelled.
" Elizabeth what the heck is taking you so fricken long!"
" I can't seem to.....,....."That's when my mother pushed me out of the way and got a beer from the highest cupboard in the shack. I stood there in astonishment. Why had my mother helped me, I mean she hates my stinking guts.
"well get on up there before your father literally kills you!" My mother said.
So, as you guessed, I did what i was told and ran to my basement. But to my surprise my father wasn't there, but instead he was tearing up my book, The Blue Lady. I stood there killing myself inside.
"No dad!" I screamed, throwing my fists against the wall.
"This is what you get for taking forever!" My dad yelled back at me, throwing me against the boards.
"Dad let me go." I squirmed.
It was the next morning in my lonely bed, and chilly room. When all of a sudden I inhaled the worst thing in the world. SMOKE!
"MOM, DAD!" I yelled with all of my might, trying to stay under the black fog.
There was no response, but the wind blowing through the shattered windows. Then I saw two shadows on the floor in the distance of my home. I thought about escaping but then, right when i had turned I heard a huge thump on the ground.Then I felt a weird pain in my arms and legs. And
next thing i knew everything was perfectly pitch black.All i could see was flashes of red and blue lights moving every second. And all i could here was the yelling of people and the sirens of what seemed to be cop cars.Then it was all blank for good!
I finally awoke in a room with huge objects and IV'S in me because somehow i had gotten stabbed everywhere with glass. Then someone entered the room with a clipboard in his hand and a pen in his lab coat.
Who are you where am I. I deserve an answer. The room fall silent with no movements and no sound. Than the person turns around with a huge kneedle in his hand. I screamed for help,hoping someone would come to my rescue.But it seemed like it was just me and him in a locked dungeon. But before he impelled the kneedle into my arm he said, "I am Dr.miles and I am going to try and fix you up.''So for some unapparent reason I let him proceed. Of course I didn't or even couldn't trust anyone but to be honest, I was in some deep crap.
''Oh Fu....."
"Young lady I know it hurts, but Please watch your mouth."I didn't answer after that. Well I guess you could say I couldn't because that shot was for me to fall fast asleep.
