When Ms. Flamaeco dragged Hope back inside she scrambled up the cold steps. She ran into the closet and locked the door. She knew someone would find her somehow. She decided she would come back out of the closet after an hour or so. As soon as she got out she heard Ms. Flamaeco screaming at Hazel a 6 year old girl. She sprinted down the steps and saw Hazel about to get whipped she was crying with her lip quivering.
Hope ran in front of Ms. Flamaeco sheilding her face as she raised the whip and stopped. Hope was waiting to feel lots of pain. When Hope noticed it was not coming Hope looked up at Ms. Flamaeco. What are you doing? Sneered Ms. Flamaeco. Im not going to let you hurt Hazel! Replied Hope. Haha little girl you're not a threat to me! I am older and bigger and stronger than you, which means Im also better . I suggest you stop trying to be the hero here, before you become the victim. So shut your mouth and move aside! Snapped Ms. Flamaeco.Hope gulped and said, Stop your bickering Michelle Flamaeco! If we orphans wanted to we could take over the orphanage! You saw what I did to your niece, you would'nt want that to run in the family!!! Hope, now realizing what she had done gulped. Ms. Flamaeco raised her hand, and brought it down upon Hope! There was so much force, Hope stumbled backward holding her cheek in her hand. Hope picked up Hazel and sprinted up the steps with Hazel wrapped tightly in her arms. When they got upstairs the first thing Hope did was pull out her suitcase. What should we do now? Asked Hazel. We're not doing anything, however I am running away! Replied Hope. But what if she whips me again? Two huge hopeful eyes stared up at Hope. Oh alright, but you can't complain! Now get packing we leave tonight!
