Hey guys well I had this idea for a song while I was listening to a song called "Blow Away" and I heard it this morning and its almost 6 in the afternoon and I have brain storming all day about this story. So here you guys go, the first chapter of Blown Away. Hope you guys like it.
Addie's POV
"Addie come on wake up we are gonna be late for school!" my younger sister Clara said shaking me
"I'm up, I'm up. Now hurry go get dressed and don't wake up daddy." I told her
Her green eyes looked at me for a second then she smiled. She went running out of my room and into hers. I sighed and plopped back down on my bed. After waking up fully I got up and went to my closet and grabbed a pair of jeans, my belt, and a loose fitting tee-shirt. I threw my dark brown hair up into a pony tail and took my eyeliner to make my blue eyes pop out even more. I hurried and brushed my teeth and then put on my chap stick. Then Clara came into the bathroom to brush her teeth. She is only 5 years old and I was turning 15 next Tuesday, a week from today. I smiled at her shaking my head. She had put on a pair of shorts and a tee shirt with her bathing suit up underneath. Her dark brown hair was almost black this time of year so it made her eyes pop out all on their own. After she finished brushing her teeth we went down the steps as quietly as we could, knowing that he was asleep on the couch. We grabbed our bags and I grabbed the lunches that I had packed last night out of the fridge. We kissed the picture of our mom like we did every morning telling her goodbye. Then we left out the back door.
We ran a crossed the road and then when we reached the middle of the field we slowed down and started to walk. You see we didn't go to school. I had dropped out last year and now I taught my sister everything I knew. Our mother wouldn't be happy about me dropping out but she wasn't around anymore. She died two years ago in a car crash and left us here with him. I wasn't looking forward to my birthday because like every year sense I was nine he made me have sex with him and whoever else he wanted me to. I couldn't tell him no because then he would start hitting Clara and make her do things. I couldn't let that happen so that meant that running was out of the question because I couldn't leave her behind and she wasn't old enough to run yet. I was going to wait until she was at least 8 and then we would run.
So every day we would go to the river and I would teach her until about noon then we would have lunch and she would go swimming until 1;30 then we would start working again until about 3:30, then we would go home and she would go out to play while I staid and cleaned. Yeah the reading was hard but I taught her a trick mom had taught me, just reread it over and over until it sounded right. So we spent about three hours on reading and about an hour on everything else. She caught on quickly and I figured out that her being near the water helped her focus better. So I taught her here. Right by the river near Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Today I felt off but I didn't let it show to Clara.
"Addie, why does daddy drink a lot? I mean even when mom was alive he drank a lot like something was bothering him." She said as we ate our lunch
"He is just upset about everything." I told her
"Can I ask you something?" she asked me
"Yeah, go ahead." I told her unsure of what to say
"Do you know someone named Grover?" she asked me
"No why?" I asked her
"Because he came up to me yesterday and he said that he would come back as soon as he could with help to get us away from here. I just thought he was one of your friends because he knew who I was." She told me and I froze
"Clara you aren't supposed to talk to strangers. You know better!" I told her
"I'm sorry, well I'm going for a swim now." She told me standing up and taking her shirt off
"All right and I think we are done for the day. I need to go to the store and get stuff for the house so when you get done swimming go straight home and be quiet when you get there. Alright?" I asked her standing up
"Yeah, I got it see you at home Addie." She told me and ran into the waves.
I started to walk to the store. I only needed to get a few things to make for lunches and dinners and then some snack stuff for the week. So I got some stuff at the store. The lady asked me if I should be in school and like I told her I'm home schooled like I do every week I come in here. She always told me to be careful around here because there are some creepy people and like I always think she doesn't even know the half of it. So I started to walk home and I kept getting this feeling like I was being fallowed. When I made it to the front step I heard Clara scream then a crash. I dropped everything and ran inside. I saw Clara lying on the floor with blood coming out of her head. She had tears in her eyes holding onto her head. I became pissed. The wind picked up outside and I ran at him knocking him away from her. He shoved me back, Hard, I slammed into the wall and he picked her up by her shirt and held her there. I pushed myself off the wall trying to find anything to get him away from her. I started to panic and just kicked him in the side and he dropped her. I shoved him and he slammed into the wall. I had a few seconds. I ran over to her and picked her up, I ran with her towards the door and then he grabbed the back of my shirt and I let her fly out of my arms and out the door.
"Run and hide Clara! Go now!" I screamed and he threw me back into the wall
He punched me in the face, hard. I fell to the floor and he kicked me in the ribs a few times before I rolled away. I could hear the wind howling outside and the clouds blocked out the sun. It started to rain, almost haling, I got up and he pushed me up agents the wall by my throat. I couldn't think of anything to do but try to pull him off of my throat. The wind outside got louder the more worried I became. I let out a scream and the windows busted open sending glass everywhere and the doors broke open and slammed into the walls. Then next thing I knew I was on the ground and I didn't know where he was.
"Addie stop it!" someone screamed over the winds and then I felt myself fall into the blackness.
I woke up and the sun was back out and there was glass everywhere. When I remembered what happened I started to panic again.
"Clara!" I yelled trying to sit up but someone pushed me back down
"She is fine, don't worry Grover and Thalia are fixing her up. Just lay still." He told me and I saw his eyes and just about started crying.
"Percy is that really you?" I asked him
"I'm happy you still remember me Addie. I wish this would be under better circumstances." He told me and then I saw another guy and a girl
"You two know each other?" the guy asked
"Yeah, we used to be best friends back when we were 8 threw us being 11. Then we lost contact and when Grover mentioned Clara I had to come check it out." He told them
"Addie!" Clara yelled and I shot up and she hugged me tightly around the neck. I could feel her tears hit my neck as she cried.
"It's alright Clara, I'm okay see nothing bad happened. Are you alright? How is your head?" I asked her
"They said I'm going to be fine just a concussion at most. Are you alright? You face he did it again." She said her voice cracking
"I know sweetie, I know, but I'm not going to let him hurt you again." I told her then I looked up at them.
"We need to get going before he wakes up." The girl said looking over at Bill
"Are you going to be okay to walk?" Percy asked me
"Yeah, I'll be fine." I told him and let Clara go wiping her tears from her eyes and her face.
"Are we going to be okay?" she asked me
"Yes we will be fine Clara I have it taken care of now come on." I told her and got up
I had to stand there a second before moving because I felt light headed. When I saw him lying there it took everything I had to keep from crying. The weather started to change again the sky growing dark.
"Addie you need to calm down." The boy with black eyes told me
"You don't even know dude." I told him
"Alright well Clara, Addie this is Annabeth, Thalia, Nico, and Grover. Everyone this is Clara and Addie. Where is your mom at Addie?" Percy asked me
"She died about two years ago. Addie doesn't like talking about it so be quiet." Clara whispered to him
"I'm sorry Addie." Percy said
"It's fine." I told him and Clara went over to Thalia
"Fallow me." Clara told her and she walked out the door with Thalia following her
I took cautions steps over towards Bill. Then I kicked him as hard as I could in his ribs. I could feel the wind pick up again. I kicked him again and again until finally I was pulled away.
"That was for my sister you fucking bastard, I told you if you ever touched her you would die and I hope to keep that promise!" I yelled at him
"Addie we need to go. As much as we would like to see him dead we don't have time for it. Nico go get Clara and Thalia and tell them lets go." Percy told him and he ran out the door
"How many times has this happened?" Annabeth asked me
"This as in?" I asked her
"Him hitting you and your sister?" she asked me
"This is the first time he has laid a hand on Clara at all. But for me this happened on a regular base. Trust me this isn't the worst that has happened." I told her and then Clara came running in and she grabbed my leg
I picked her up and she put her head in the crook of my neck. She sighed and then I saw where they patched up her head. She had some bruises forming and then Percy put his hand on my shoulder.
"Hold on tight and don't let go no matter what. Ready Nico?" he asked him
Then we were sucked into darkness without a warning.
