Day one of ???

Your POV

I jolt awake and was met by cold air and dust. Because of the dust, I had a mini sneezing fit.
As much as I try to remember, it is only met with a throbbing headache. Slightly above me I hear cheering, shouting, talking, music, and footsteps.
My first thought was 'oh, someone in my house is playing a sick joke on me.' But that changed when I started to hear people talking.
It was only things like 'Why'd you do that?' and 'It's only a matter of time!"
Now that I think of it, me and my dad haven't really even spoken a lot. When we would see each other we would give a brief nod, did he even really accept me?

Do they even really care about me?

Is this all fake?

Are they just looking after me because they feel bad for me?
Now to think about it, I don't even look like my mom. I have deer ears and a tail, my sister being a demon.

I think they feel bad for me.

Am I going to die?

Will I ever get to say goodbye?

Am I going to die?

Stop it Y/N, it's not helping the situation.
I never thought I would die alone, I thought I'd at least die with friends even if it ment being brutally stabbed to death.
"Five impossible things before breakfast... Being saved, coming out unharmed, seeing the light of day, getting warm, hugging my dad." I mumbled.
Truth be told, I just think me and Benicio never really had a chance to properly meet, well... let's just say that.
Wet tears streamed down my face as two women enter. Of corse, one of them just HAD to be Alice.
From the moment I saw her, I knew it meant trouble and in no way an easy escape.
The two women exchanged a look, Alice walking towards me and the other person leaving.
"Listen kid, I don't really want to hurt you. I just want revenge on your parents. So, to make you betray them I'll tell you the truth." I stayed silent out of fear.
"Ok, lets start in the beginning."

--------------------------

Alice sighed, she needed to do something. "Alright... I cannot do that, BUT I can give you their daughter... And maybe his wife..." She mumbled the last bit, hearing Mr. Moon hum in delight. "Well then, I expect them by next week."
A week passed and as promised, Alice brought him the child and Benicio's wife, it was just that she was dead. "Listen, the child is really all you need. His stupid deer wife doesn't mean anything!" "Ok, I get that. HOW did SHE DIE?" He raised his voice, getting clearly upset. "She put up a fight and ended up getting hit by a car... Trust me though! The child IS ALL YOU NEED!" "Ok Alice, your job here is done."
That was that, Benicio went back to loving Angelica and forgot about Wren all together.

--------------------------

"That's the reason why Benicio doesn't like to talk to you. Your a spitting image of your mother, it hurts him. Its all be-" Alice's story was cut short by something shooting her in the chest. When she fell to the ground, I looked up and saw my dad, if I should really call him that.
He untied me and asked me if I was alright, I just nodded in response. We walked past dead people and then out a door into a bright and loud place. He grabbed my arm, still we never shared a word.
He brought me outside, pushed me in a car and started to drive. "Why didn't you tell me about her?" "Who?" "Wren." I Looked over to him, he looked like he was about to cry. "I... I can..." He said in a small voice. "Alice told me what happened, its really okay. Sadness is nothing but a wall between two gardens." "Your mother used to say that a lot. Sadness is nothing more than a wall between two gardens. When we get home, me your... mom, ruby, and Boris can explain things to you better." I nodded, I hoped things would be better.
