Chapter 2: Untamed

A fight broke out; school hadn't started yet Dominic was walking his sister to her classroom when he saw the fight he pulled the girl off of the other girl. The girl who Dom pulled off the other girl shoved Dom against the lockers driving his back into the metal groves. Blood trickled down Dom's back as the girl ran away. Dom slid down the lockers leaving a long bloodline down the lockers, as the principal ran past him and after the girl. The ground slid under the girl's feet as her body collided into the white peeling walls. She put her back to the wall as she pulled the money out of her pocket.

"Fuck, I'm 200 dollars short," She silently said to herself.

She her the footsteps of the principal's dress shoes on the hallway floor, she pushed her body off of the wall and looked at her arm. Blood trickled down her arm staining her white baggie shirt. She started running again picking up the pace afraid to get caught, afraid to lose what she didn't and would never get. She ran past the rusty gates that imprisoned them in that old school, she ran down the street and past the people on the street. She stopped when she was in front of her house; she walked around to the back of the house and climbed in through the back window. She silently walked up the stairs and into her mother's room; a gold diamond ring was on the old wooden dresser. She picked the ring up and put it into her pocket and silently ran out of the house. She walked for a while until she was in the bad part of LA, she looked around no fear present in her; she did fear this at all she only feared one thing.her step-father. She walked into a pawn shop, there were two in front of her, she waited until they were gone, she walked up to the bullet-proof glass, she pushed the ring through to the old man. The man put on his glasses and examined the ring, her looked up at the girl she couldn't be more than seven or eight, he shook his head then examined the ring once more.

"Two thousand dollars," the old man said as he counted the money. She knew she would get less anywhere else.

"I'll take it."

"Here you are Letty," the old man said as her handed her the money; she took it and put it into her pocket and left.

She stood outside of the pawnshop and stared up at the sky, she wanted to wish herself out of this life but she could or maybe there was someone or something stopping her wish from coming true. Someone or something. She walked back home; she walked into the house this time through the front door. Her stepfather sat on the couch watching TV and drinking a beer like he always did. He is a gritty man, not very clean either, he rarely shaved and he barely took a shower once a month; he works with a sewer company and he smelled like it.

"Where the fuck is the money!!" Frank shouted as he spotted Letty.

She looked at him; she got the money out of her pocket and tossed it on the table.

"It better be all there."

"It is."

"You better pray it is."

She dragged herself up the stairs and into her room; she stared out her window that over looked the street below. A bunch of kids were laughing and playing, she looked across the street and a few houses down. Mia was on the front porch while Dominic and her dad works on Mr. Toretto's car. She leaned against the window she wanted to get the hell out of this house but she couldn't; he would beat the shit out of her, he'd kill her before he'd let her out of the house. She opened the window, she locked her door then climbed out the window, she was debating walking to the Toretto's or running away. I should apology to Dominic for shoving him against the lockers, she thought to herself. Mr. Toretto went into the house and Mrs. Toretto came outside to get Mia. She walked; well more like ran towards Dom.

"Hey Dom."

"Hey Letty."

"I wanted to say I'm sorry for shoving you against the lockers earlier."

"It did hurt."

"Yeah, I guess. I gotta go home."

"You wanna eat dinner with us?"

"No, I mean I can't." Letty ran back to her house.

Dominic looked at her, she never came out of that house and when she did she didn't stay long. He wanted to know what was up with her, she never seemed to have time to do anything and she was always getting expelled from school. He remembered seeing her once with a whole bunch of bruises on her. She seemed depressed all the time, she wasn't like all little kids she never had fun or played with the other kids. What was up with Letty?

Letty climbed into her window, she sat on the windowsill looking out on the world below. She wanted out of her hellhole; she could run but he'd always come after her and she'd just ended up in the same place. A silent ear ran down her face, she missed her old life her old friends and her old family.
