The Broken

Born without a name and traumatized by death in the midst of her murderous so- called ‘father’ for ten long years she lays broken in an imperfect world where troubles linger in every corner, where happiness-to her- is a myth. 
She waits for the feeling of safety, when the nights aren’t her sisters’ cries and the mornings aren’t reminders of her brothers’ death but when will that moment come? Will she ever rest? She’s calling for it but will she ever get it? Can the broken be fixed when all hope is lost?

We find ourselves standing on the front door of the shackled house, the cop holding Richie and me. I shut my eyes as my ears listen for the door. Footsteps. His footsteps. They’re getting louder. No. Don’t. Please. Oh God, help me! Someone! Anyone!

The door flings open. “Hello officer, what seems to be the—“ his eyes travel to us. An evil grin of victory then spreads on his face. “I’ve been looking for you.” He whispers as his eyes glare into mine; his pool of lust drowns me hinting me that soon my innocence and virginity will be gone.

“Are you their father?” the cop asks sternly. My ears turn deaf  hearing only one sound, an eerie sound of screeching emptiness. Their words float away and soon Richie and I step into the house, again.

When life gets out of hand, plans change and her past comes to get her. Will she be able to keep up her facade? Or will she let her hidden, true self come to the surface? Will she be able to keep all the promises she ever made; or will she break them, one, by one? What if friendship turns into more, even though she's trying so hard to fight it. And what happens, when the demons in Emily's head take over and she loses control over everything around her? When her heart tells her to keep fighting but her mind won't. Who will be able to save her from her darkness? --- Trigger Warning --- "It's not your fault, Sweetheart. I made my decision. You couldn't have changed it." She stands in front of me. Her eyes are bloodshot red as usual. Her lips blue and her face pale, the sling around her throat. "I want you back. I miss you so much." I cry and she pulls me into a hug. I breathe in her scent. She's ice cold and I can't make out a heartbeat. "I know you do. I love you so much, keep that in your mind, my love." My grip around her tightens and I bury my face in her chest. "Please don't let go." I sob as her grip around me becomes loose. "No mom. Stay!" Her arms fall down at my sides and she starts vanishing in my arms. "No! Mommy! Come back! I need you!" I fall onto my knees and start shaking. I sit up straight in my bed. Meeting mom's eyes in the picture on my nightstand. "Fuck." I whisper, wiping away the tears under my eyes. My head pounds and I'm still shaking a little.

I apply pressure to the bullet hole. The pain nearly causes me to grow numb. Darren scoops me up into his arms as he tries to avoid sudden danger. His cautious movements are for my benefit. I gasp at the sudden pain. My heart pumps faster. Adrenaline kicking in. "Hold on, Autumn." I look up at his face. I never would've thought I'd actually care for him. Darren and I only teamed up because we were running from the same person. My father. When things quiet down around us, he lays me down on the ground. "Autumn, look at me. Please." The anguish is clear in his voice. I'm sure he feels the same way about me. The surprise of two strangers caring for one another. I look up at him with hooded eyes. He smiles weakly. "Hi." "Hey." I croak. He rips the bottom of my shirt and uses it to help apply pressure. It's soaked instantly. "I can't believe that son of a bitch--" He looks at me. "I can't believe he shot you." "He didn't shoot me." I try to sit up, flinching at the pull of my side. "The guard did. He didn't know who I was." Darren clenches his jaw. "You're losing a lot of blood." I force a laugh. "I guess it's a good thing that I'm a fighter." His eyebrows draw closer together. I wanted to say something to easy his concern, but words lodge in my throat, causing me to sputter. It feels like I'm choking. Desperately trying to catch my breath. "Autumn? Autumn!" I try to say his name among my coughing fits, but blackness grabs me with its cold merciless hands before I can get a word out... That moment when you have to learn to accept yourself, but you don't even know who you are. Your reality is shattered. And everything you thought was real, becomes the opposite. (Inspired by a dream)

There Are Three Truthes, My Truth, Your Truth, And The Truth... «P R O L O G U E» "When you hate someone, just know that you will try to do everything to end them, when they hurt you, you're gonna break them. That's how life works, if you wanna survive, you have to chase, or they'll mistook you as a prey." Crook said. "When you harbor that deep-seated hatred, it's like a fire burning inside you, consuming every thought, every action," Crook mused, his voice low and ominous. "You see, revenge becomes your only language, your every move calculated to bring about their downfall. It's a cold, cruel world out there, Jane. Survival means playing the game, hunting instead of being hunted," Crook explained, his words dripping with a chilling truth. "And when the pain becomes unbearable, when betrayal cuts deep, your instincts kick in. Your mind races ahead, trying to shield your heart from the impending storm, a battle between logic and emotion," Crook revealed, his demeanor a mix of calculated strategy and hidden vulnerability. "When they try to hurt you, you wanna break them, when they hate you, you hate them, and when you hate them you're gonna end them." "When he hurt me I ran away, because my mind knew something my heart didn't want to proceed..." (Second book of 'Dare') "Sometimes, the truth can be a painful storm, but in this tale, the truth will be the gentle wind that guides everything back to harmony. How? Keep journeying through the story to unveil how the power of truth can mend what once seemed broken."
