Chapter 4, sorry it's not long, but I've got a science exam tomorrow and I haven't revised yet because I'm a rebel ;)

... And I love my horse too much.

I know you guys don't need this bit of info, but I've just found out that I'm getting another horse for my fourteenth.

I think I'll call it Iggy :')

... Moving along.

CHAPTER 4!

Chapter 4.

The room was dark, only a dim light illuminated the Erasers faces as they smiled wickedly at Molly - who was tied to a chair with belts. The girl's tanned legs were bruised, mirroring the tops of her arms. The first Eraser grinned, showing off his yellow teeth and putrid breath hit Molly in the face. "Jeb doesn't like you talking to those birds." He growled, grinning still.

The sixteen-year-olds eyes were filled with tears that she couldn't hold back. One by one they trickled down her face.

"Awe, what's a matter, baby? Regretting all that cheek you gave us today? There's no need to act up, just because your brother was there. He loves that Max chick, not you." The other sang, his eyes glistening.

Molly growled as fresh tears soaked her face. "Shut it, Devon."

Devon was beaming now, probably because Molly remembered his name. "How does it feel knowing you'll always be second best to his little flock?"

"I SAID, SHUT IT!" For such a quiet looking girl, that roar must have given those monsters quite a shock.

There was a loud banging, then the door flew open, light spewing into the room. "Devon, James, out!" Jeb roared, untying Molly and helping her up. "Are you OK?" He asked quietly, checking her wounds.

Molly grinned sarcastically. "Oh yes, Jeb, never better. How's about you?" Jeb shook his head and sighed, then looked confused at Molly's outstretched hand. She was handing him a little golden house key. "I'm leaving, my bags are packed, they have been for a while now. I can't live in this house anymore. Thank you for looking after me, Jeb. But I hate you, and to be honest, you creep me out a little."

Jeb frowned, taking the key and shoving it in his pocket. "Where will you go?" He asked, leading her into the corridor.

"Outside…" She muttered. Molly rand to the top of the stairs, lifted her hand up and beckoned her bags with it. They hovered over and followed her back down the stairs. "Bye."

Jeb leaned up against the door frame and sighed. "Are you going to Fang?" He asked, pushing his glasses up his nose.

"No." Molly said shortly and stormed off into the night, bags floating in close pursuit. Distantly, she could hear Jeb reassuring Lexa that she would return.

There's no way I can go to Fang, Molly thought, sitting up against a tree. She must have walked for hours. The Devon was right, he does have Max. She's not even related and yet, she'll always come first. Molly took a huge gulp of air and let herself shudder with the force of her tears. Maybe if I had been allowed to go with them, he might have loved me, looked after me. But I guess I mean nothing now. Molly's breathing started to calm and become less erratic, but the thought of some girl meaning more to Fang than his own family was really starting to depress her.

Why don't you just kill her then?

Excuse me? Murder's like, illegal, and I'm not insane. Molly smirked at her Voice. Anyway, I thought you said I was a waste of Oxygen and that you hate me?

That's true, I do hate you. The voice answered, obviously her jaw was clenched and flexing. I hate everything about your pointless existence.

Harsh words Cassie.

But true. You've killed before, it would be so easy to get rid of Max, you could make it look like an accident.

Molly sighed out loud and rubbed her forehead. Cassie, I'm not killing anybody and last time was an accident.

Fine. Loose him, like you loose everybody else.That was the last thing Cassie said before Molly drifted into sleep.
