𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐎𝐍𝐄 - the escaped prisoner
The heavy rain pours down on the thirteen year old Cassiopeia Black's face as she skips through the pouring rain in her favourite black leather jacket and her blue denim jeans covered in small little rips from the many times she's tripped over. Her once pure white trainers now covered in the thick mud from running through the forest that her surrounds her house. As she runs deeper into the forest further away from her house, further away from her aunt she feels free.
The thunder gets louder and louder as she runs deeper into the forest. The rain trickles down her pale face, soaking her long black hair drenching her clothes. Not once did the smile fall off her face. It only gets bigger as she dances around in the rain giggling to herself. Running around the trees, her laughter only gets louder.
Cassiopeia makes her way into a clearing and she lifts her arms into the air dancing around feeling the happiest she's ever felt in her life. She stops for a moment taking in her surroundings. Looking at the small clearing in between the many trees. The daisies on the ground drowning in the massive puddles and mud that now covers the ground.
As she looks over to her right, she hears a twig snap. Knowing that her house was the only one around for miles she was curious as who or what would be around in the forest at this time at night. She slowly walks over to where she heard the twig snap being careful not to make to a lot of noise as she doesn't want to frighten whatever the thing was.
"Hello?" Cassiopeia calls out, trying to see if there was a person but there was no reply. Instead she heard a loud barking behind her. She turns around to see a big black dog. It had to have been out in the rain a while as it looked a lot more drenched then her and her clothes. Carefully she approached the dog and as she pet its head as it leaned more into her hand. The dog started to back away slowly and started running off into the direction of the house but Cassie didn't realise this was the way back.
She starts to chase the dog which she knows isn't a very good idea but she is quite curious at this random dog she's found. To busy focusing on the dog and hoping not to loose it she doesn't notice the large tree branch which has fallen on the ground causing her to trip over and land in a massive puddle adding even more rips to her jeans. Luckily, she didn't get hurt.
"Oh shit.." she says as she started giggling to herself. She picks herself up from the puddle and realises she's lost the dog so she decides she's had enough fun for the day and starts to walk home. It would take a good five minute walk to get back to her house so she tried to go as quick as possible.

The girl walks up the small pebble path up to her house. Her house isn't small but isn't big either. It is just the perfect size for the two that lives there. The walls on the house are made out of red brick and it goes up three stories high. She quietly opens the bright red door but that plan didn't work as well as she planed as the door creaked and her aunt was on the other side of the door. Cassie's face turned into a shocked expression as she knows her aunt isn't very happy.
