Chapter 3

Atth, age 12

Atth woke up to hear his mother screaming, he turned over in his bed and pulled the pillow over his head, trying to muffle the sound of his father getting his way without his mother's permission. Atth, not being able to block out the sound, got out of bed and climbed out his window. He walked down the street, to a park. Seeing another boy sitting on a bench, he walked up to him.

"Hey Sean"

"Hey" Sean passed Atth the joint as Atth sat down. "Your parents?" Atth nodded.

"Me dad was arrested again today, they have no proof though." Sean said.

"Someone should shoot the lot of 'em." Atth replied, inhaling.

"What, like Rick did?" Atth shuddered at the mention of Rick, the boy who had killed his parents with a gun and had been dragged off to a psychiatric hospital.

"Maybe not"

A car drove past and someone yelled out "Mother f*#@ers!"

"You'll get yours" Atth yelled back.

Age 14

Atth screeched around the corner, in the BMW, he looked in the rear-vision mirror and sped up seeing that the cops were still following him. A car come out of nowhere and Atth had to swerve to miss it, he swerved off the road and down a ditch where the car got bogged. Atth jumped out of the car and started running, but was grabbed from behind by a cop. Atth punched the first cop, but was tackled by another.

"Your under arrested for Grand Theft Auto and assaulting a police officer."

"Fuck you!" yelled Atth spitting the policeman's face.

"Assaulting two police officers." The policeman replied, dragging Atth to the police car and throwing him in.

"Brutality, I wanna make a complaint!"

"I'm sure you do, but just like the other times you've complained when getting arrested, the complaint will be throw out."

"The system is corrupt!" Atth screamed at him

"Oh, so is that your excuse for nicking cars? Why don't you just tell us who you're selling the cars to?"

"Yeh right"

"You're loss."

"Nuh, yours, you'll have to put up with me in custody for days!"

"Shut up you little shit."

"Forceful language, I'm offended, I'm adding that to my complaint."

"You do that."

Atth puts up his finger at someone out the window as they drive past a building.

"Who was that?" asked the policeman

"Just the guy behind this whole thing."

The policeman starts to turn around the car to go after them.

"You won't get him, he's already gone, sorry to disappoint you."

"Oh, I'm not disappointed, I've got you. I've been waiting for years to put you behind bars and now it's going to happen."

I know I said I would write about Rhys next, but I had this chapter done and I haven't updated for ages. I'm halfway through the one about Rhys, so it's on it's way!

Please review! Any suggestions for Rhys's brother's name?
