It was a normal day my mum was going to work in hospital again for work and my dad going to wherever he goes everyday leaving me (Ruby) and my; brother Jackson alone in the small, no miniature house that all four of had had to live in after my dad had lost his job at Wayne industrys.My brothers phone gave a quick ding "goin' out" he said looking up from his phone with a small grin on his face "It is the gang again, mum doesn't wile you gowing owt with dem" I said not pronouncing my words correctly since I was just 5. "I.Don't.Care" He said firmly looking at me as if I had just set a house up in flames.I sighed knowing I would not be able to stop him "well be back for at least 10, please" I pleaded knowing how much trouble they got in with the police and Batman last time "fine" he mumbled grabbing his ripped and dirtied jaket. I watched him walk out of the door and lock it after him then I walked upstairs. Me, a 5 year old girl effected by panic attacks sat in a small,powerless, dark house again. I walked up to my room locked the door grabbed a book and sat in the corner. The more I thought about it the harder my breathing got. Somehow I managed to stop myself from having one by grabbing a small batman plushie I had gotten when I was 2. All I did was cry.
About 1 and a half hours later the house phone went off. I picked it up I heard the screams of my dad "HUNNY RUN!" He shouted over the phone "Daddy?" I asked timidly "THE'VE KILLED JACK AND YOUR MUM THERE AFTER ME THAN YOU YOU NEED TO.." there was a loud bang a scream than nothing I hung up the phone, held it tightly in my hand and went into a safe room, I held my Batman teddy closesly crying.. my family was gone but why next thing I knew there were loud bang a shouts, that's when my panic attack set in...
"I found the girl" one of the men shouted "good" somebody said a tall thin man with two different coloured eyes walked in "hello kiddie my names Zucco Tony Zucco me and your dada had some let's say unfinished business to deal with..." he laughed menicengly "kill her boys" he said as he walked of the last thing I heard was the loud bang of a gun and then blackness.
I woke up to a bright light "hellow?" I asked hearing slight noises "doc she is awake" said a short plump lady in medical attire "werew am I?" I asked
"Your in a hospital kid your lucky to be alive" said the main doctor "werews my famiwy" I asked "sorry Kid their gone" the plump lady said... at that moment tears lined my face "what... werew am I gonna go" I said taking short breaths in between every word "Mr Wayne has offered to take you in for now he has a very special offer for you kid.. your lucky.. get some rest he will pick you up tomorrow and you will live with him" she said I nodded and fell asleep finding it slightly difficult for the wet tears still rolling down my cheeks as the idea of my dear parents haunted me.
