It was cold and damp. I feel like I'm going to vomit. I don't know how much longer I can take of this. I'm going insane, down here all by my lonesome. Footsteps. Why am I hearing footsteps. He wasn't supposed to be home till later. oh no. oh no. The room is spinning. It's all a blur, all I can hear is yelling, I bet my father brought his buddies over to abuse me even more.

13 hours later

I slowly opened my eyes to see 4 doctors hovering over me. "she's awake" I heard one say. I was so confused. "what's going on..." I asked in a bewildered tone. "how old are you?" "do you have any family?" "what is your name?" question after question they all came at me. I had no idea where I was and what they were doing, all I knew is that the past 13 years of my life, the only human I knew was my father and my older brother. My older brother, I missed him so much. I was never really afraid of my dad until I saw what he could actually do.

He would only hurt us and "teach us a lesson" every night when he got home from a night of drinking with his friends. Sometimes he would bring his friends along with him, which made it a little worse. What really made me afraid of my dad was the first and last time my brother, James, told my father no.

He was really drunk that night he had just came home and was telling us to get ready because he brought a friend over when my brother told him he didn't want to. He begged my dad to let him free and he swore he wouldn't say anything. In that moment I had a little hope because my dad though for a second and maybe, he would let us go. And then he took out his knife and killed my brother right in front of my own eyes. I was eleven at the time. He killed my mother when I was four and my brother and I were locked in the basement ever since. We use to keep track of our age but when my brother died, my hope went with him. I never thought the day would come when I would be able to leave that old basement were my brothers body was still laying.

I was in a haze. The doctors were still asking me questions but I didn't know any of the answers, so I just looked at them because honestly, I was just as confused as they were.

A/N: so that's the first chapter I hope you like it.
