A.N.: This chapter is just basically a flashback, so y'all get your
questions answered – I hope. And so that I've more time, to think up more
antics for this family, & their "forbidden friend". Lol. Also, this chapter
is rated PG-13 or maybe a lil' higher for some of it's content. You can
decide. And just so y'all know, I made this all up way, way back when I
was, like, 9 or so. Don't ask why – just a very wild & over-active
imagination. My real life is NOTHING at all like the girl's in the story.
Flashback...
It was an average sunny April 17th day, in Sydney, Australia, when a squalling infant girl was born into a family of 14, thus making her the 13th child. Now, as luck would have it, the family she was born into was very superstitious and considered the number 13 to be dangerous. They had actually been hoping for a set of twins, so that they could avoid the unlucky number, but obviously, they did not get their wish. The unlucky number 13 had come upon them, much to their dismay.
"Well, what do we do with her?" Max Krammer asked his wife. "There is no way we can go around having 13 kids! It's just – bad luck!"
"Okay, just because I didn't have twins, doesn't mean you have to get all mad at me," Bethanie, his wife, snapped. "I don't want her anymore than you do!"
Just then, the doctor that had delivered the unlucky child came in. "Mr. Krammer, do you have a name for your child yet?"
Max looked at Bethanie, who looked back at him with a blank stare. He looked at the doctor then. "Lenore Dielynn Krammer," he answered, figuring it to be an unlucky name, best suited for an unlucky child.
"Thank-you," the doctor said, then left to go make up a nametag for the baby.
"Lenore?" Bethanie repeated. "What kind of name is THAT?"
"One that will bring her lots of bad luck and misfortune," Max smirked. "Besides, it was the only thing I could think of."
Bethanie rolled her eyes, as the newborn child in the nearby bassinet cooed. "Shut-up Brat!" She yelled at her newest, unwanted, daughter. "You're NOT to make a sound unless told otherwise!" She did NOT care if the baby didn't understand her – she'd MAKE the baby understand.
Max's eyes lit up then. "Hey..." He began. "What about Miss Grudge's Orphanage?"
"What about it?" Bethanie asked.
"Why don't we drop the brat off there, and be done with it?" He suggested. "I mean, it's not like we want her. And I highly doubt anyone else will – I can make sure of that."
What they didn't know then, was that their unlucky number 13 child, was actually quite smart. Maybe a little too smart for her own good.
In the days that followed, Max and Bethanie did as they had planned – they dropped their newborn child off at Miss Grudge's Orphanage. Upon doing so, they left a great amount of rules that the child was to obey – should she do otherwise, she would be punished severely.
The rules were the following.
#1. NO back-talking whatsoever. Do & be punished.
#2. NO talking with your mouth full. Do & be punished.
#3. NO wasting food. Do & be punished.
#4. NO watching more than an hour of television. Do & be punished.

#25. NO stealing/begging. Do & be punished.
#26. NO concerts! Do & be punished.
#27. NO wandering off. Do & be punished.
Now, sure these rules sounded absolutely crazy, but to a couple of people like the Krammer's, whose children should be taken away from them, these rules were normal. So normal in fact, that their other twelve children were to follow them to a tee as well, except for #!$. Also, their sons were not allowed to kiss/hug girls, nor were they to have any girlfriends.
During the course of the first two months, that Lenore was in Miss Grudge's Orphanage, though still VERY, VERY, VERY young, she learned things that others as small as her wouldn't have. For instance, she learned not to scream/cry when hungry or wet, but wait until Miss Grudge was good and ready to take care of her like she should be doing anyway.
As she got a bit older, she learned to do things normal babies didn't learn to do until they were a bit older. But, Lenore didn't like to be normal. At four months, Lenore was already crawling and able to support her head on her own. Then, as five months, she was able to walk AND talk. Now, walking itself at five months is amazing, but being able to talk? C'mon! You only hear about that in fictional books! But, she could do both as well as any of the toddlers that were there at the Orphanage with her.
While learning things faster than her peers, Lenore managed to make a friend. A boy friend – luckily for her, it wasn't forbidden to have her single friend a boy. If it had been against the rules, she would've been punished for sure – and she HATED being punished.
"Hey, Lenore," Jacob, who was a month older, and just as smart, piped up suddenly. "Whatcha wanna do?"
Lenore looked at her friend. "Dunno," she answered. "Wanna s'plore?" (explore)
Now, as not to confuse anyone, both children could talk as well as a child of four or five. It couldn't be explained, it was just the ways things were with them.
"Where yah wanna s'plore?" Jacob asked.
"Outside," Lenore replied with a smile. "Out!"
Jacob nodded, and took hold of her hand. The two of them then snuck out of the Orphanage and began to explore the area that surrounded the place that they lived. The two tots explored all day, right up until dinnertime – it was then that they entered the Orphanage, only to have Miss Grudge standing there glaring at them, whip in hand.
"Where were you?" Miss Grudge barked at them.
The two stared at her, wide-eyed, in complete silence.
"I asked you a question and expect an answer!" Miss Grudge roared.
Lenore and Jacob still remained silent.
Miss Grudge snapped her whip. "BASEMENT!" She growled. "NOW!"
The two small, terrified, tots hurried down to the basement, which everyone at the Orphanage referred to as the 'Dungeon', as that's what it truly looked like. Once there, they clung to one another scared, not caring if their hugging got them in even more trouble.
Miss Grudge stood before them, angrily cracking the whip she held in her hand. "Separate!" She ordered.
Lenore and Jacob decided to do as told, as they knew the consequences were quite worse if they didn't.
Miss Grudge took Jacob, and beat him, then chained the small boy to the wall, as he sobbed. The basement was designed like a dungeon, so that's why there were chains on the walls for her to chain the children up. Though, the only two who really ever got chained up down there were Lenore and Jacob.
Lenore watched quietly, lone tears streaming down her face, for having gotten her friend into trouble again.
Miss Grudge grabbed hold of Lenore next, and stripped the baby girl, flinging her clothes across the room. She then gave the child the beating she believed the child had earned. And, as always, Lenore got the worst of it, as she was the most hated orphan of all, for no apparent reason. Other than the fact that her biological parents were the ones to give the long list of rules that were to be followed.
Once done beating the tiny girl, Miss Grudge chained her to the wall next to her friend, and went over to the cage where she kept the hundreds upon hundreds of spiders. She knew of the small girl's fear, and loved to play upon it, thus scaring her more than ever, and giving her an excuse to beat the child again, and more severely.
Lenore whimpered as she saw Miss Grudge free the hundreds upon hundreds of spiders, that she SO hated. She knew that since they were chained to the wall, and that the spiders could sense fear, that there was NO escaping them anytime soon.
Miss Grudge glared at the two small children chained, naked, to the wall. "You shall go without meals, until I see it fit to feed and release you from here. Until then, enjoy your stay." She glared at Lenore as she said the next bit. "And NO using my floor as the bathroom, or you SHALL be forced to clean it with your toothbrush, then forced to use that very toothbrush upon your teeth." She then stormed back upstairs, slamming and locking the door behind her.
Lenore began to sob and shake from fear as she watched the spiders scurry across the floor towards them. Oh, how she feared spiders AND the dark! Not that it was extremely dark in the 'dungeon', but it was still dark enough to spook her.
"Don'ts cry!" Jacob told her. "Please don'ts! An' don'ts be scared! They comes faster!"
Lenore couldn't control herself, and kept right on wailing hysterically. She was petrified beyond belief. "C-Can't..." She wailed.
Jacob did the best he could to try and calm her down, but his efforts were in vain. They were in vain, as the spiders reached them a whole lot quicker than either would've liked, and caused Lenore to scream and cry even more. And, though she tried hard not to, Lenore still ended up using the floor and wall as a restroom. But right then, she was too scared to care about the consequences she'd receive for that.
Two days later, the two small children were released for the basement, and given some broth without any bread. Then they were forced to clean up the mess they'd both made on the wall and floor with their toothbrushes. But, somehow, without Miss Grudge knowing it, they were able to switch toothbrushes with someone else, before having to brush their teeth. Once they were all ready for bed, they were whipped again, then sent to their separate rooms, which they shared with the other orphans.
Six months later, both children now being eleven and twelve months, were dragged off to the beach with all the other orphans. It was Filed Trip Day – a day loved and cherished by most orphans – except Lenore and Jacob. Lenore and Jacob were the only ones who were to tag along, but weren't allowed to participate at all. And any orphan who misbehaved, got to join them in sitting wherever they'd been stuck, like sore thumbs.
But, this day was unlike any other Field Trip Day. You see, it was the day Miss Grudge was to be rid of Lenore – her biological parents orders. They'd paid her a great sum of money as well, to go along and do the dirty deed.
Lenore was sitting with Jacob, when suddenly Miss Grudge came over and picked her up. She then threw the eleven-month-old child into the ocean, knowing she didn't have a clue as to how to swim. Miss Grudge had also made sure that none of the lifeguards would save her, as she'd her older orphans distracting them – they only obeyed as they didn't want to be whipped for disobeying.
Jacob screamed when he saw his best friend sink down below the surface of the ocean, and could feel his heart shatter into a zillion pieces at the loss. It didn't even faze him when Miss Grudge slapped him across the face to shut him up. Nothing mattered now. Nothing at all.
Later that day, Jacob snuck back down to the beach, so he could say one last farewell to his best friend. It was there he got the shock of a lifetime. He was just standing there, when he suddenly felt a small pair of arms wrap around him in a hug. He turned, and almost screamed when he saw Lenore standing there grinning at him.
"But-But-But-"Jacob tried to get his words out, but couldn't.
"I'm fast learner," Lenore smiled. "I cans swim now. An' nobody knows."
Jacob couldn't believe she'd been able to pull that stunt off. "But...you gotta go somewhere safe..." He said softly. "Miss Grudge will hurts you if you comes back."
Lenore nodded sadly. "Saw boats...Gonna go on 'em an' find new home..." She whispered. "Wanna come?"
Jacob nodded his head vigorously. "Yesth..."
The two then made their way to the docks, where the big boats were getting ready to leave. One was on its way to London, England – the other New York City, New York.
End of Flashback...
Lenore sighed, as she thought of her long-lost friend, while watching Randy and Brad pick on Mark in the Taylor's backyard. She felt bad that only she'd managed to escape the dreadful Orphanage that day. Jacob, sadly, had let himself be caught so that she could escape. He'd just gotten on the one boat she was on, when ship security had caught him. She watched helplessly as her best friend had been dragged off the ship and handed over to Miss Grudge. She knew he was going to suffer, and all because she'd asked him to tag along. Though he'd been caught, and she was well hidden, she didn't fail to see the quick kiss he'd blown her, before being dragged off down the street by his ear. She also knew he'd never tell a living soul that she had been on the boat that day. Not ever.
Lenore often wondered if her friend was still stuck in Miss Grudge's Orphanage, and hoped to God he wasn't. She hoped with every inch of her soul that he had indeed eventually escaped. It hurt her inside, thinking of how she could've stayed with him, instead of being selfish and escaping Miss Grudge's evil clutches, and becoming the youngest Australian Refugee ever – though no one but her, and a few select people, knew that. She was also the youngest person, to ever sneak into New York City on their own, and get away with it. No one really knew where she'd come from, and few actually cared to know.
A.N.: Well, hope y'all liked this chapter! And I really hope it answered some of yah questions. Now y'all know why Lenore's an orphan. Hopefully, I'll be struck with more ideas now, and will be able to post more often. I'm SO sorry it takes me so damn long to update. I really am. Ok, now for an explanation on her name.
Lenore – The "Raven" in Edgar Allen Poe's poem. Plus, he also wrote a poem entitled "Lenore" which was all about death (freaky). And, also, my name is Lenore as well.
Dielynn – "Die" is in it (though so is "Lynn"). And it's the middle name of one of my best friends.
Krammer – A nice last name. Also the last name of Billy Warlock's character, "Eddie Krammer", on Baywatch.
Also, 13 = !$, as the Krammer's are SO superstitious, they won't even WRITE the number 13-lol.
Well, adios! Plz R & R! KTBSPA & KTNTPA & KTACPA & KTCAPA & KTKILPA & KTBKPA & KTKCPA & KTCPA & KTLCPA & KTJTPA & KTNEDPA & KTBSPO!!!!!
