"ANNA GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE NOW!" i heard my father yell from the living room. As i got to my door it was kicked in by my drunk dad 'great he's drunk again...shade a

little-' i didn't have time to finish that thought because of a fist to my face. I fell to the floor in pain as he started to yell and hit me.

"NEXT TIME DON'T TAKE YOUR SWEET TIME OR ELSE YOU LITTLE SHIT"then another hit to the face. "DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME"

"y...yes s...sir" i studdered and mentally screamed forgeting about shade as my fatther left the room. 'Ouch what the...oh a..anna i'm so sorry..i..i didn't know' I

heard shade say I coughed in return and slowly got up. " its fine shade...i'm alright" I whispered then headed downstairs."you're mother's long lost brother Jeffrey is

coming to visit and you are staying in your room, do you understand me ya little bitch?"

"yes sir"

"good now go to your room, NOW" I quickly ran to my room shutting the crappy door and locking it with a sigh. 'Shade?' i thought as he materialized in front of me.

"yes my little sunstar?" he whispered and hugged me. "I'm sorry you have to deal with me...with them" he smiled and put my hood up. "your my sister and i'll always be

here for you...now get some sleep you have school tomor-" was all he said before disappearing making it silent. Then i heard my sum what drunk mother open the door and

say "Jeffrey it's so good to see you"

"Hey Amy" he said sweetly then " Don't call me that its just Jeff" wow he had the guts to growl at her. Damn i like him already.
