"Bella!" my mother said. "Get out of the house NOW!"

Oh my god Phil is home! What am I going to do! Well for everyone who doesn't know Phil is my step dad and he beats me and my mom. He has this box of "weapons" that he beat my mother and I with. I'm scared that one day he is going to kill my mom or me. I have no idea how we got in this situation, but I just hope that soon we can get out of this situation because I do not know how much longer I can take this.

"You Slut! I go to work and find out you are cheating on me, with someone from my own baseball team!" Phil said. I think I have to call the police, I just have a really bad feeling that this is not going to end well.

"Hello 911, what is your emergency?" the lady said. "My step dad is beating my mom and soon he is going to come after me." I told her. "Okay just stay calm we are sending some officers over to your house, would you like me to stay on the phone until they get there?" "Yes" I replied. "How long has this been going on?" she asked me. "5 years, no one knows, I have been afraid to tell someone, but I can't handle this anymore." I said starting to cry. "Its okay honey, they are at your front door and are coming in right now." She informed me. "Thank you" I said.

Right at that point I heard a gunshot go off. I hung up my phone and ran down the stairs. On the floor laid a dead Phil, and my mother in a pool of her own blood. I ran to my mom the tears now streaming down my face. "Mom wake up! Please don't leave me, I need you!" The officers pulled me outside and then they took my mom away. He killed my mom! By this point everything was hitting me at once so I collapsed on the floor in sobs. They all walked away leaving me there alone to grieve over my dead mother.

"We contacted you dad and he is on a flight up here as we speak." One of the officers said. I stayed silent for hours, until I saw a car pull up and my dad Charlie step out. "DAD!" I screamed running straight into his open arms. The tears running freely down my face, I collapsed into his arms. I needed him now more than ever. "Bells are you okay?" he asked me. I shook my head; this was one of the worst days of my life. I just want to go and leave phoenix and never come back.
