Tragic Humans

Author's Note: Characters from The Rocky Horror Picture Show belong to creator Richard O'Brian. All other characters belong to me. Based on the 1975 film version with Tim Curry.

Jenny lied on the bed on her stomach, she didn't want to look at the man who just molested her. Her own father had finished his routine of touching his daughter in places she didn't want him to.

"You're so pathetic, like your mother," her father, Mr. Roberts said as he got dressed.

Jenny had been molested ever she was a little girl. She knew it was not right, but her father would make threats against her, even cutting her to pieces.

"If you so much as utter a peep to anyone again, I'll cut out your tongue," he threatened as he reached for the bedroom door, "And remember this, I own you," he adds and leaves the room.

Jennifer Roberts took a moment to get herself together and touched her bruised stomach. It was worse on her back as her father liked to beat her there the most. Jenny looks at herself in a tiny mirror; reflecting back at her was a thin, blonde haired, and blue eyed 18 year old girl.

She placed the mirror down and pulls out her iPhone. The only other person she can depend was her best friend, Emily Garrett. Both girls went to the same high school and Emily also endured abuse at home.

Emily had three brothers and they would torture her whenever possible. She tried in vain to tell her parents, but they didn't believe her. As a result, Emily became tough and had to defend herself whenever her brothers came after her.

No one believed both girls about the abuse they endured their entire lives and when they first met in middle school, they became inseparable. They exchanged their stories about the abuse and of the people who would carry them out.

They tried everything they could to make others believe they were abused, but Jenny's father was a police commissioner and he used his power to silence them or make the people think twice about the girls.

The abuse continued on into their high school years and Emily certainly had had enough. She thought up a plan to run away to the city of Columbus where Emily's grandfather was a lawyer and he had connections to the Ohio's senate.

Emily would take Jenny with her and they hoped that Jenny's father would finally face justice and Jenny would receive the best treatment.

Jenny looked Emily's contact number and called her despite it being the middle of the night. "Hello?" Emily asks, but Jenny suddenly lost her voice. "Jenny, you there?" she asks again.

"Yes," Jenny replies, her voice cracking.

"Oh dammit, he did it again, did he?" Emily asks in an angry tone and Jenny's cries were enough of an answer. "Oh that does it, we're leaving tonight," Emily said and adds, "You remember the plan? Get out of the house and meet me at the bus stop, you know our school bus stop."

"Yes, how long will it take for you?" Jenny asks, now whimpering.

"Five minutes, seven tops, I promise. I'll wait if you're not there," Emily replies and hangs up.

Jenny pulls out her backpack and empties it of its contacts, school books and such, and filled it with an extra set of clothes and shoes. She then gets dressed and puts on a pair of shoes. She quietly opens her window and creeps out onto the roof.

Jenny could hear her father screaming at her mother downstairs, which muted out her footsteps on the roof. She then slid down one of the stoop's poles and was on the ground.

"If that little bitch so much as utter a word to anyone, I'll kill her!" Peter Roberts, her father shouted at his wife. His wife did not utter a peep as she was also a prisoner of Peter.

Jenny went off into the darkness without looking back at the house of horrors.

Jenny arrived at the school bus stop just as Emily arrived in her dark blue 2004 Honda Civic. Jenny saw Emily was wearing black, which she usually wears to hide the bruises and cuts that her brothers inflicted.

"Damn this town," Emily said to Jenny when she got in. "But your dad, I hope he rots in hell when he dies," she adds.

Jenny didn't speak as she didn't know what to say, but she had a lot to say about her dad.

"Listen, I'll stop to get gas, how much cash do you have?" Emily asks and Jenny looks through her backpack. She pulls out a few ones and fives and counts them.

"Um, $33," Jenny replies and Emily pulls out her stash of cash.

"I have $42, I think if we drive all night we'll get to Columbus by morning on a full tank. You go in and buy some drinks and snacks," Emily said and turns her car around and the Civic drives away from the neighborhood.

They reached a 24 hour gas station and both girls went in. Emily went to pay for a full tank of gas and paid with her cash, "You can keep the change," she said to the cashier.

Jenny went around the aisles, looking for whatever food they would need for the journey. They, or at least Emily would need caffeine, so Jenny grabbed some Cokes. After grabbing a bag of cookies and some fruit from the refrigerator, she went to the cashier.

Jenny didn't look at the man's eyes as he bought up the items. Jenny then felt sick to her stomach and images of her father flashed in her mind. "Miss?" the cashier said and Jenny comes back.

"It'll be $21.19," the cashier said and Jenny quickly hands over the cash. She grabs the bag of items and rushes out of the store. "Hey! Do you want your change?!" the cashier called out, but Jenny didn't go back.

Emily had just finished filling up the tank when Jenny got to the car. Emily noticed Jenny, a look of fear on her face. "Jenny?" she said and gets into the driver's side.

Jenny began to pant hard and Emily cradles her friend. "It's okay, it's okay," Emily said.

"Please, don't stop anywhere," Jenny pleads, tears falling from her face.

"I promise I won't stop, other than taking a piss-" "NO! Don't stop anywhere!" Jenny cries out.

"Jenny, it'll be okay, I swear. Besides, I don't think anyone will be out this late at night at a rest stop," Emily replies and rubs her back.

"You swear?" Jenny asks and Emily nods and turns the ignition. The Civic leaves the station and it drives away from the sleepy town of Denton.


From the author: What do you think? I decided to create a story involving the sexy transvestite from Transsexual, Transylvania after falling in love with the 1975 film with Tim Curry. Such a great voice he had!

By the way, this story takes place in the present. If you think I should continue with this, please tell me so in a review. See you later.
