White Rain

You want to leave. Then die

"I can't wait to see you, cousin. But I should warn you. I live with vampires. I promise they won't hurt you...." Me and my cousin Yui have been sending letters for the past couple of months. I finally made enough money to go see her in Japan. I have her address and I'm leaving Friday. It's Tuesday right now, and I can't be more excited. I don't care if she lives with a bunch of vampires. I think they're cool. Don't get me wrong I know they could kill me if they wanted to. But I have nothing to live for since my mom re-married. "One-way ticket to Japan for Friday please," I say to the lady at the counter. She snaps her gum and hands me the ticket. I walk back home, only to find my room trashed as always. I clean it up again and walk out to the kitchen. I cook myself something to eat, just as my step-father walks in.

 "Hey you fat whore, are you going to eat all that?" I look at what I made. It's just some pasta with alfredo sauce. I haven't eaten in 3 days. Now my step-father isn't always like this. He puts an act up around my mom. But she isn't home much. But when I try to tell her what he and his son do to me. She won't believe me. She hasn't been there for me at all since my dad Lucas died.

"Crimson. Stop I need to eat. So back the fuck off!" I shout angrily at him. Scarfing down some of my food. He storms off to his room, actually letting me eat in peace now. After I finish I walk back to my room and close the door. 

"Hello. Slut." The voice of my step-brother Jasper calls out. I turn toward my closet only to find him standing there.

 "Jasper. Get out." I tell him. He chuckles darkly and quickly grabs my hair. "Aghh." I cry out in pain. Tears soon stream down my face due to the pain. "Jasper let go!" I claw at his hand, but its no use. 

"How about, No? I'm bored, I want to have fun with you." He says as he starts rubbing the side of my stomach. 

"NO, LET GO!" I yell at him. I elbow him where the sun does not shine. He lets go and I run for it. Only to be stopped by Crimson. 

"One-way?! Really?! TO JAPAN?!" Shit my ticket. I must have left it on the counter. I'm slapped hard, hard enough to see red. I hit the wall with a heavy impact, then the floor. Jasper takes this opportunity to grab and pin my arms behind me. 

"No please no. Not again." I pleaded over and over again. 

"Just shut up slut," Jasper says as he takes his shirt off. No-no-no. This can't happen again. I think to myself. I'm hit again and everything goes dark this time.

I wake up to the full moon bright in the sky. I look over at my clock. 2:28 a.m. I go to sit up only to lay back down from the pain. "I won't take this any longer," I whisper to myself. I slowly get up, needing to use the bathroom. I look in the mirror after finishing my business, only gasp in shock. I have cut on my cheek and a huge bruise forming. I shower, knowing mom's home Crimson won't do anything to me. I stay in the shower until there's no longer any hot water left. I walk back to my bedroom, and I see mom sitting on my bed. "Hey, mom. I couldn't sleep." I say, but when she turns to me there are tears in her eyes. 

"Baby. Sit down, we need to talk." I sit next to my mom. Confusion must have been written on my face because she smiles at me. "Honey, if you wanted to see Yui you just had to ask." She looks in my eyes as she says this. She reaches in her pocket and pulls out 3 more tickets. "We're going with you! Isn't this going to be exciting!" The happy look on her face makes me sad. I wanted to leave this place. Not have them follow me.

 "Yeah mom, that sounds great. You should get some sleep. You look tired." I tell her while hugging her. She nods and goes back to bed. I lay on my pillow and close my eyes. I'm no longer looking forward to going to Japan. I let the tears fall onto my pillow.

Three days came and went and now I'm standing at the airport just getting off the plane. Mom couldn't come as she got sick. So Logan, Jaspers' friend, came along instead. Crimson was nice towards me most of the time we were in Japan. I met up with Yui a couple of times during the day. But I didn't tell her what was going on. Only that Crimson decided to come with me. She showed me a lot of things. Sweets and food, the best parks and places I could sketch my heart out at. But soon it was the last day of being in Japan. Logan was getting on my nerves with all the perverted stares I was getting from him. "Logan knock it off. You're pissing me off." I tell him, for the zillionth time that day. A smack is audible throughout the room. Crimson comes to investigate along with his son. I reach up as my cheek starts to sting. 

"Shut up you little bitch. Yours truly will look at you however he wants to." I look at him in shock. 

"Alright, Logan. Want to get rid of the bitch with me and Jasper?" Crimson looks at Logan, pure hatred burning in his eyes.

 "It would be an honor, Sir," Logan replies.

 "We could leave her bleeding to death in the woods. I know where there's a lake, we could blame it on a wild animal." Jasper tells them. 

"Good idea son." Crimson then walks over to me. "You wanted to leave this family. Then you can die." My head is slammed into a wall. My vision goes black. I can feel myself being dragged into a car. I hear the roar of the engine, I vaguely make out their voices. I'm so tired, but I don't want to sleep. I guess my body had other plans. 

I'm awoken to someone kicking my side. I groan in pain. 

"Little bitch is up." Logan's voice calls from above me. I realize I'm lying on the ground next to a lake. I'm then kicked again and I scream in agony. My attention is brought to my leg when I feel a stabbing pain shoot through me. I see Crimson pull a dagger from my leg and toss it to Logan. Logan then proceeded to stab my arm. The dagger is then passed to Jasper who slashes open my back. It's only then I realize I'm covered in cuts and I'm in shorts and a sports bra. They take turns stabbing me over and over. Seconds turn to minutes. Minutes soon become hours. I scream at every slash and cut they make. Someone. Please make it stop. I think to myself. I'm stabbed in my torso, making me cough. However, I cough up blood. Making them howl in laughter. I'm kicked in my torso, causing blood to come out of my mouth and my stab wound. My blood is starting to pool around me. What little clothing I had on me, nothing but dark red. 

"What's the matter, little bitch? Dying already?" Logan mocks at me. Black eyes look coldly at mine. What I wouldn't give to wipe that smirk off his face. My brown/blonde hair is now sticking to my back and shoulders, covered in my blood. 

"Time to go. Wouldn't want to miss our plane would we boys?" They all chuckle darkly as they take off in their car. I can smell my blood and I know I'm in trouble. My vision starts to darken after a while. Breathing hurts and I want it all to end.

  "Hang in there my little Raindrop." I hear the voice of my dad. Just then icy-rain starts to fall. I can't make it. This is how I'm going to die. Alone and in the middle of nowhere.
