A New Life
Prologue
A four year old girl was playing with her toys. Her mother came and picked her up from the floor. She took the toy from the girl's hand and put it on the table. She told something to the child. She walked to the bedroom and put her in bed. The mother went to a shelf on the far wall and got a picture book. She heard shuffling from the window and looked down. Nothing. She shrugged and went to her child. She started reading the story and eventually the girl went to sleep. The mother closed the light and walked out of the bedroom.
It was about midnight, everyone in the house was asleep. Three dark figures climbed in through the living room window. They walked quietly through the house. One of them accidentally knocked down a porcelain jar but another caught it in time, just before it hit the floor.
"The next time be careful." A masculine voice said in a hushed tone.
"Sorry." The other one whispered.
"Shh, we don't want to ruin this mission." A feminine voice shushed them. They nodded.
They tip-toed quietly to the little girl's room. They locked eyes. The feminine figure opened the door quietly and walked in. She looked around and signaled to the masculine figures to come in. They walked to the sleeping child. One of the masculine figure got the blanket off the child. The small child shivered. The first one carefully picked up the child and handed it over to the feminine figure.
"Why do I always have to carry the child?" She whispered.
"Because you are a woman and woman are supposed to be good with children." The male explained while whispering. She sighed and walked out of the room with the male figures behind her.
When they approached the window, the child opened her eyes. She took in the strangers' faces, wide eyed. She screamed as loud as she could. The feminine figure took out a cloth and put it on the child's mouth and nose, knocking her out. They heard foot steps approaching and muttering. They turned to the window and fled.
