Allen's POV
Im so sick of the dark. It's always dark. I've been in the dark for longer than I can remember. He keeps me down here. I don't blame him. I'm a monster, a demon. But still, I wish I could see light again, just once. I can't remember the last time I did. I wish he would let me out. I hate him.
I heard the door screech open and a sliver of light blinded me. I could see his figure in the door. He was probably just here to throw my meal at me. I got one meal a day of stale bread and water. He started to walk closer. I could see him now that my eyes had adjusted to the light. He had long bright red tangled hair. He was tall. He wore glasses and a long black coat with gold trim. He looked worse than usual and he didn't have any food in his hands, that only left one other thing he could be here for. He started to get closer and every step he took I dreaded. He was taking unbalanced wobbly steps. The closer he got the more the scent of alcohol grew and the more my stomach twisted. When he finally made his way over to me he just stopped and stared at me. I didn't dare speak. He raised his hand ready to strike. I closed my eyes, waiting to be hit, but it never came. All I heard was a thud and when I opened my eyes he was on the ground passed out. After my mind had finally processed that I wasn't going to be beaten I looked at the only light source in the room and realized that he forgot to shut and lock the door. I stumbled to my feet trying to make a run for the door, my sore, unused legs keeping me from going any faster. I made it up the stairs and onto the upper level of the house. The house I seemed to be trapped in for the last couple of years was anything you would expect of an alcoholic. There were bottles, broken glass, ripped furniture and random stains everywhere. I wobbled around as fast as my shaky legs could carry me trying to find the door to freedom. My eyes finally caught a chipped wooden door, and I strained to reach for it. As the door started to creek and the brilliant light from outside started to leak inside the horrid house the only thought that was flowing through my mind was: " I can finally see the light again."
