Miss Independent: Robin Bennet

By: BirdieEsme10

^ Okay, so I haven't updated on my "Hope" series...I lost track after a while....so here's what Robin's life was like before Norrie! A mini story of b/n (before Norrington "Norrie) lol...R&R! AND DONT HATE! ^ -Robin

I sometimes wonder how my life got this bad....but I realize now that it was my fault.

" Arabella Amalie-Rose Winston, get in here this instant!"

I cringe in fear at my new adopted mother's loud cry from the study.

Slowly walking from the kitchen, I hear over hear her and her snobby friends discussing on how I and a new young man could make a lovely couple.

Lovely...hardly the last man she choose for me tried to kiss me on the first meeting!

"Yes, ma'm" I flatly ask bowing to my crude mother and her gossiping friends.

"Come here child" My adopted mother, Louise Garrison, chuckles waving me forward.

I walk dully into the study and over to settee and just reach my mother and she slaps my face harshly.

"How dare you!"

I lean down and forward grabbing my knees as tears begin to burn my eyes.

"W-What mother?"

She scoofs yanking me up with one hand and slaps me again with the other but, with more force this time.

"Don't ask questions, that you can already answer wench!" My mother cries throwing me to the ground.

"You see ladies, this is what I thought I could adopt and make into a beautiful young woman"

T-This...I am a thing to her!

Oh, where is my best friend when I need her!

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

"Yo, Ho, Yo, Ho, a pirate's life for me!" I sing happily walking through the meadows behind my home, taking in all that warm, crispy country air.

"Robin Elizabeth Bennet!"

I turn around and find my mother's sister-in-law, my auntie behind me.

Why did my mother and father have to go to Verisalles for a holiday?!

"Get in the house immediately, you'll feckle!"

I giggle just knowing it will make her angry and "her poor nerves" speech start up again!

"Have you no compassion for my poor nerves?!"

"Nope, and by the way, I think feckles are beautiful my daddy was born from two feckled red headed parents, thank you!"

I sly walk away as my auntie calls for my uncle and run up to my cousin and/or best friend's room, Lizzie Bennet.

"Lizzie I-"

I stop dead in my tracks as Lizzie softly cries on her bed clutching a letter in her hand.'

"What is it?" I whisper as I sit down beside her on the bed.

"I-It's Arabella, she just send us this letter saying she hates her new adopted mother...because..s-she beats Ara!"

"W-What?!" I boom standing up clinching my fists.

"She can't do that to poor Ara, Robin!" Lizzie cries throwing the letter to the ground, "...we have to get her out!"

"We will Liz, come on!"

We're comin' Ara!

T.B.C.
