I rested my head on the pillow as I watched my older brother playing his guitar and singing to block out the sound of my mom's screams. I know. Screams? Did she burn herself or something? If she did, why weren't we out there helping her?Well, the real answer is: my step father is a drunk. He'll leave in the morning. Get drunk. Come home at around 5 in the evening. Beat mom (sometimes even me and Bryce, my older brother). And then he would leave the house again and come back a few hours later and repeated this every single day.I wish either Bryce or I had the courage to call the police, but my mom wouldn't be so pleased with that. She says he's helped us in ways we wouldn't understand. Our reply always is: You're right. We don't understand. I never got the courage to tell anyone what was going on at my house. Or why I couldn't be out having fun (while my mother's going through harsh beating; I can't be out having a laugh). Or even why I can't have anyone over."Why does she put up with that ugly creep?" I stated sitting up in my bed. "I don't know. What could possibally be the reason? I mean, all he does is beat her all day...He doesn't help us at all!" Bryce said clearly annoyed with the subject I chose to talk about."Go to sleep, you need rest. If your temperature rises any higher, you'll be in the hospitall for a week." He was right. I had been sick for the past week. Going to the doctor every now and then."Well, I can't with her screaming like that!" I frowned tears threating to spill out.Bryce put his guitar down on the floor and put his arm protectively around me.

" I lunge forward at him hitting his groin with my knee then right between the eyes. As soon as I do, he crashes to the ground, out cold. I go for more, but a pair of arms snatch my waist lifting me up. I kick my legs and flail my arms to get closer but he is too strong. "Let go of me!" I demand. "Shut up." A low strong voice commands."Is he okay?" "He is fine." I grunt. Then the young adult wakes up, then scurries back away from me. "Sorry ma'- miss... " he says, making me angry again. I give him a cold stare. "I'm sorry." He repeats, standing to his feet. "Put. Me. Down." I demand again. With a huff he puts me down. I step forward with full intentions to punch him again but the man behind me takes my arm, holding me back. I jerk forward to get off his grip but he takes my other arm tightly. "Alright! I'm done! I'm done!" I huff in defeat. " This story follows Astrid, a 26 year old female who ran away from home 10 years ago. The only reason she has come back was to get away from the hole she dug her self into. She is running away from her problems again. Life before she ran away wasn't as nice as the public saw it- the sherif's family, happy, and loving. Behind the doors it was orders being barked left and right with no warning or break. Not wanted to deal with this anymore, Astrid ran. On her voyage out, she ran into some trouble that seemed all fine until it wasn't. She comes back home and everything is all fine and dandy until, "Unknown: You thought you could hide forever? I found you, and I can find your friend, Nicole. If you want her safe, you'll be at the ring in an hour." Since Astrid's leave, the town suddenly had a motorcycle gang that hangs around, not realling doing anything in particular, but the sherif doesn't trust them much. Damon being the head of the gang, keeps everything they do quiet. When these two meet up there is obious tention and immediate hatred. ***EDITING TWs: Controling dad, violence, abuse
