Children of Bones

A young girl having to deal with an abusive father,a drug addict mother, while grieving her big brothers death is too much for just one soul to bear. Usually the monsters under her bed, or in her closet, or at her window scared her but her 'family' scared her even more. The monsters watched in anger and sadness as the young girl was abused and hurt by her father every day and night. One night the monsters declared that every child treated as such will be protected by the monsters. One monster in particular was a night stalker who cared for the girl more than the other monsters. He didn't just watch her at night. He would travel with her and talk to her. This monster she called Bones because of his skull face and bone horns. That night he covered her up with her thin blanket that could barely keep her warm as he frowned. 
"She has other monsters to deal with right now" he said as he rubbed his black furry thumb gently over her cheek went back into her closet and watched over her. He was her guardian monster.
