Til Death Do Us Part❌

1. Life Begins

Alastor's POV

I was taken in my two humans named Mary and Tom. They loved me and treated me well, they loved me....

Or so I thought

I'm now five years old and I have the worst parents, they're not the kind sweet people they where five years ago.

I'm starting to think I'm the problem, we live very far from people so no one will hear if I'm screaming my lungs out while locked in the shed.

I beat on the door with my fist like it would just fly off, I screamed and beat the door. I cried my eyes out but no one cares.

My punches became weaker and weaker until I finally stopped and crawled to the back of the cold shed.

I heard the thunder and rain outside, I covered my ears silently crying to sleep. Why do they hate me now....is it cause I'm not a baby, I tried my best to get warm.

I closed my eyes and fell asleep cold and wet due to the leaking roof.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up in the morning, my red polo shirt dried as well as my jeans. I stood up and stretched and gently picked the shed door seeing it unlocked.

I bolted out the door not wanting to be seen, they HATE seeing me in the mornings. They unlocked it as a sign to tell me to go to school.

I ran as fast as my five year old legs would take me, I got there just in time not to be late. Parents have never come to my school, and if the school ever said anything about me I'd get in trouble.

I sat down and ask we did was color all day kids made fun of my clothes and that was really my whole day.

I saw it raining outside and it was only getting worse, I was about to run but was stopped.

"Alastor where are your parents" I turned around and saw my teacher standing there with an umbrella. I shook my head "they're not coming".

She took my hand gently "let me give you a ride home" I really didn't want to run in the ran again, I noded "yes please".

She lifted me up due to me being light from lack of eating, she walked me to her car and placed me in the passenger seat and buckling me up.

She then walked to the other side and got in, she shook her umbrella out and put it on the floor next to her. She closed her door, turned on the car and heater and pulled out the parking lot.

"Do you want something to eat" I smiled "ye-yes ma'am" she pulled into a McDonald's and into the drive thru.

She got me a quarter pounder, fries, and a soda. I thanked her and ate as cleanly as possible, I didn't want to waste any bit of this food.

Usually I only get and apple and a dirty tin cup with water, I never drink it because the water smells and it's brown.

I ate it all really quick, and Ms. Bailey laughed at me "you sure where hungry hm" I noded as I licked any greases of my fingers. "That was the ba m best thing I've eaten ALL year".

She told her head with a smile "oh please, your mother probably has wonderful cooking". I shrug "I dunno, all my meals are the same" "and what's that" she asked.

"An apple a day with the gross water" she stopped smiling so I thought I something wrong. "What's wrong Ms.Bailey, did I say something bad". She shook her head "that's ALL you eat, a day".

I noded "well why'd the water nasty" "it's brown and sinks like cow poo". She shook her head "where do you sleep" "I'm usually in the shed, because I'm in trouble.... But they unlock the door when I have to go to school, as long as they don't see me I won't get in trouble".

I was a little nervous, Ms.Baliey looked mad, I could tell her knuckles where turning white. "Ms.Bailey....." her grip on the wheel losened "yes Alastor".

I looked down and played with my fingers "are you mad at me". She shook her head "not you, your parents... They aren't supposed to treat you like that".

I noded "they where nice when I was younger, when I was one and they found me" she looked away from the road "found you, what do you mean".

"They found me on the woods", she glanced to the road and the truck infront of us skidded to a stop and a restraint broke. Causing metal rods to fly out, I heard our car screech and we flipped off the road and some rods following behind us.

Ms.Bailey put a hand on my chest to keep me from flying forwards, then everything went black.
