Donna's daughter

She hated them,both of them. She wished that her parents wern't so abusive and mean, but Twelve year old Kirsty couldn't change the way her parents were. They hated their Daughter for a reason she could never understand.

At the moment,she was sat in her bedroom,reading when her dad shouted her from downstairs.

"No" Kirsty said "I'm not coming down."

"Just get down here now" her dad bellowed. Kirsty sighed and sheepishly made her way down stairs and into the living room.

"What's going on?" she asked both her parents who seemed to look angry.

"Sit" her dad barked,pointing towards the armchair. Kirsty stared at him blankly and his patience was growing thin with her.

"I said,sit" he snarled,grabbingh er by the hair and throwing her onto the chair.

"What's happening?" she asked in a scared tone.

"DON'T YOU TAKE THAT TONE WITH ME"her dad bellowed,making Kirsty shiver.

"What have I done?" she asked. She began to feel tears filling her eyes.

"YOU STOLE YOUR MUM'S PURSE" he shouted.

"It's true" her mum added in a nasty tone. Kirsty stared at both her parents with a horrified look on her face.

"I didn't" she admitted,crying hard "I didn't steal your purse mum. You probably mis-placed it again,I would never steal your purse."

"BITCH" her dad screamed "YOU LYING,FILTHY BITCH." He slapped her hard across the face,causing her to fall from the chair and hit her head on the floor. Dazed,she stood up and walked to the front door.

"WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?" her dad bellowed as she grabbed the handle.

"AWAY FROM YOU TWO"she shouted,tears streaming down her cheeks. Her dad's face went a beetroot colour.

"YOU ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE,GET BACK HERE NOW" he bellowed so loudly that the veins in his forehead were practily showing.

"NO,I'VE SUFFERED TWELVE YEARS OF ABUSE FROM YOU AND THAT BITCH."

"WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE YOUNG LADY" her mum screamed.

"AND I'VE HAD IT,HAD IT.I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE" and she stepped out the front door and slammed it behind her.

Many thoughts ran through Kirsty's mind as she stormed down the street. Why were her parents so mean to her. She was still crying ,but she was angry at the same time.

"I hate them,I hate them both" she muttered as she plonked herself on a park bench. She also had a headache from whens he hit her head after her dad slapped her.

"I wish I was adopted" she sobbed,burying her head in her knees. She was sobbing for about ten minutes when she felt a hand on her shoulder.

"What's wrong sweetheart?" asked a woman's voice. Kirsty slowly lifted her head and saw a red-headed woman smiling at her.

"Everything" Kirsty replied as she brushed the tears away "everything is wrong."

"What do you mean?" asked the red-headed woman, sitting on the bench with her.

"I hate my parents" Kirsty blurted out as more tears streamed down her face. The woman took out a hankerchief and handed it to the young girl.

"Surely you don't mean that" she said.

"I do" Kirsty replied "I hate both of them and I never want to see them again."

"Now,why is that?" asked the woman. Kirsty ssniffed and used the hanky to wipe her eyes. They were red from all the crying.

"They abuse me,they hit me" she admitted "My dad slapped me ealier and I hit my head on the floor."

"Are you serious?" the woman asked. Kirsty nodded.

"Twelve years I've suffered their abuse."

"Twelve years,is that your age?" the woman asked. Kirsty nodded.

"So,you've been abused all your life?." Kirsty nodded again and told the woman about how they accuse her of stuff she hasn't done and she showed her the bruises on her arms from where she had been beaten.

"What's your name?" the woman asked.

"I'm Kirsty Morris" Kirsty replied as she dried her tired eyes again "and who are you?."

"I'm Donna noble" the woman replied. Kirsty smiled.

"I like you Donna noble" she replied.

"Just call me Donna" said Donna. Just then,they heard a man's voice approaching.

"Donna,where have you been,I've been looking everywhere for you." Kirsty looked up and saw a tall man in a pinstripped suit,trainers and a long brown coat.

"Sorry Doctor,i was with this young girl" Donna replied,indicating Kirsty.

"Oh" the Doctor said "and what's your name then?"

"Kirsty" Kirsty replied.

"She gets abused by her parents Doctor,we have to do something" Donna suggested.

"Well" the Doctor said "we can't have that. Tell you what Kirsty, why don't you spend the night in my erm,place and we'll get this sorted out in the morning."

"I don't think that's a good idea,I'm not supposed to go wi----." Suddenly,she passed out.

"Oh my god" Donna gasped. The Doctor ran to Kirsty and examined her.

"Concussion,possibly caused by a knock to the head" he stated.

"She told me that she hit herh ead on the floor earlier when her dad slapped her" Donna said "we need to get her away from those abusive parents of hers."

"Don't worry Donna,we'll sort thato ut in them orning. Right now,this girl needs to be looked after" and he picked her up and carried her back to the Tardis.
