"W-what do you mean by that I'm not going to be living here anymore?" asked a girl with long straight brown hair. "I mean you're going to go live with your uncle john." the girl's mother said. "Um, who?" the girl asked. "Leighana, my brother!" Leighana's mother said as if she was daft. "don't be too harsh Jennifer, Leighana hasn't seen him since she was 7." said a man with black hair. He was in the military. "alright I'm sorry Leroy, Leighana." Jennifer said chuckling slightly. That's what Leighana didn't like about her mother, first she'd be talking to you as if you stupid or something and when someone would supposedly tell her off she would start laughing about it. 'what the hell…?' Leighana thought. "Well, Leighana, don't you think it's best that you pack your things?" Leroy asked, it was an indirect request, he was actually telling her to pack even though she didn't want to. Leighana groaned. "get packing young lady!" Leroy said more commanding this time and pointing at the stair case with his index finger. "yes, sir." Leighana said trying to hide the sarcasm stringing over her voice. She was seventeen and her parents were already "kicking her out". Leighana began to climb the stairs, each step creaked as she did this. She made it to the top step. Leighana paused for a moment. "get movin'!" her father said. She was actually putting up a good fight. Leighana continued to start walking to her room, even if it was against her will. But she also knew if she didn't her father Leroy would surely kick her ass. Leighana walked into her room and slammed the oak door behind her. "god dammit!!" she nearly shouted. She wasn't ready for this just yet. She didn't want to go live with her uncle whom she hadn't seen for ten years. She barely knew him!


After Leighana was done packing her things her father came into her room, the silver spurs clanking as he walked. "Leighana, I'm so sorry, but it's for the best." Leroy said, his voice was filled with regret. "How?" Leighana asked. "…" he didn't say anything. "see it's not for the best is it?!" Leighana shouted. "I'm sorry, I tried to be nice about it." Leroy scowled. "w-what do you mean?" Leighana asked confused. "I either shoot you or leave by tomorrow morning!" Leroy yelled angrily. "what?!" leighana yelled back. "I've said enough on the damned matter!" he yelled again he walked out of her room and slammed the door behind him. He had slammed the door so hard it almost split in half. Leighana sat down on her bed. She felt tears starting leak from her blue eyes.

Morning came, no matter how Leighana dreaded it. She immediately got out of bed and put on one of her clean dresses. The dress was red and simple. Red was really her color. Leighana grabbed her 'bag' that contained her clothes and other necessities. Leighana opened her bedroom door with her bag in hand. She went down the stairs, once again they creaked with each and every step. She reached the kitchen and walked right past her parents her brown hair trailing behind her. It was a good thing she was never coming back, even if her parents tried to come and get her. The brunette walked out of the house through the front door without saying a word to her parents. Outside she saw a wagon. There was a horse attached to it, and there was a man sitting in it. "Elena?" the man asked. "Leighana." she corrected. "oh I'm sorry-" everyone seemed to be saying that to her a lot lately."- I'm your uncle John Tunstall." he finished. John got out of the wagon and walked over to her. "I'll take your bag if you don't mind." he said. She shook her head. John took her bag and put in the back of the wagon. Leighana and John walked towards the wagon.
