Very short.
Adam hurried quietly outside with the four kids, sneaking around the sleeping cattle. He held Henry and Hector close, careful not to wake them as the moon shone brightly above.
"Adam, where we goin?" Marshall asked curiously, tugging at Adam's jeans.
"Listen, boy. We gotta get away from your mama and papa, alright? They hurt you an have us hurt you, an it isn't good for these two babies to be living like this, alright? We gotta go." Adam said, kneeling down to Marshall's level.
"Adam? Pa is yelling for you." TJ whispered, pointing back at the house.
"Shit!" Adam handed Henry and Hector to TJ and Marshall, tears flowing from his eyes.
"Listen, you guys need to get out of here," Adam glanced behind him. Timothy and the other guys were scouting the area, all wielding guns, Timothy holding a Shotgun. "Get outta here. Find a highway and get help, alright? I Love you boys." Adam hugged the scared little boy's, glancing behind him again.
"Hurry now, be careful." The boy's set off into the forest, their small boots clanking against the ground. Marshall looked back once more, seeing Adam on the verge of crying; making a circular motion with his fist on his chest.
Adam stood up, turning around.
"Over here, assholes!" Adam yelled, leading the others towards him.
Marshall and TJ ran behind a tree, catching their breaths as they cried. A single gunshot rang through the air, making the twins cry.
"Shh, shhh..." Marshall hushed; TJ doing the same.
"Over there!" Damion yelled. TJ and Marshall ran again, but unfortunately, their dog was faster.
Marshall was knocked over by the big dog, Rocky. Henry fell to the ground, screaming his small lungs out. Rocky leaped onto TJ, being pushed off, and onto a big rock. Rocky whined as she collided with the sharp rock, TJ going up to her and picking up a sharp piece of bark.
"TJ! No!" Marshall yell-whispered. TJ didn't listen. Instead, he put the bark up to Rocky's throat and slit it, leaving the lifeless dog on the dirt ground as Marshall picked Henry up, crying over Rocky.
"Got ya, brat." Timothy said, yanking Marshall by the arm. Marshall watched as TJ ran away, Hector in his hands.
Damion caught up and yanked TJ down.
"Where's Adam, Pa?!" Marshall asked as Timothy stared at Rocky's lifeless body.
"Ain't none of your business, kid! You two killed my girl! You disrespectful little shits!"
"Please, Pa!"
"Marshall did it!" TJ said, staring at Timothy.
"Well, I'd say you both deserve a punishment."
