Flashing lights streamed through the window in an array of vibrant red and blue lights. A rumble of thunder could be heard far off in the background. Noise consumed the run down, shabby area around 10 Arothic road. The area was surrounded by the slums of the city, damp and dreary, the road gave off a ghastly effect. The pouring rain drowning out the noise of the outside world, the water streamed down the broken glass and into the small house leaving a growing puddle on the wooden floor. Uneven heavy breathing was the only noise from inside the house. bairly audible over the rain.
Abruptly police crashed through the solid front door with thundering momentum. "Freeze"exclaimed the commanding officer, however this demand fell on death ears. There was only a small broken child shivering, semi-conscious on the cold, hard, blood stained floor. "Oh my God" an astonished officer exclaimed. Astounded she stumbled back away from the horrifying scene, her hand quickly covered her mouth in an attempt to stop herself from throwing up, the rank smell infiltrated her nose, it was a mix of blood, alcohol and something she could not and did not want to identify. The boy had matted dirty Blond hair, his clothes could almost be considered rags they were so dirty and thin, he was wearing a small pair of light brown (from what she could tell) shorts as well as a shabby dark blue t-shirt although the thing that really stood out about him was just how small and frail he was. It was like the boy had not eaten in day may be even weeks, his bones looked like the could be snapped by a toddler moreover they were sticking out at a worrying intensity from his chest. It was almost unfathomable the boy was even alive at this point.
The officer started shaking the child gently, she mustered up her sweetest voice and said "hey kid, can you hear me? What's your name?" even thought she hated to she had to identify the kid in case he didn't make it, she really hoped it didn't have to come to that. The boy was drifting in and out of consciousness. Slowly he blinked his dull but beautiful blue eyes up at the officer obviously trying to focus on her but unfortunately failing. "Come on kid stay with me!" the officer shouted panicking. Finally the boy started to open and close his mouth trying to speak. "i's stve"
"What was that kid?" the officer replied.
"Steve. It's steve" rasped out steve before he blacked out completely.
