A/N- Welcome to a new story by yours truly, SouthernGirl (I refuse to put the numbers at the end since I believe that I'm a true Southern Girl). This story will have a little of everything in it but its mainly drama/action and adventure, maybe there will be a little romance thrown in at the end. And yes this will be a tenth walker further into the story. It may also be a little MS but I'm not sure so just let me know. Please Read & Review, flames will be bounced back. Also just a little trivia here, all of the chapters will be song titles but not your average everyday Evanescence song titles. If you can tell me who the song's by I'll give you a cookie.
World's So Cold
My daddy's the biggest, strongest man in the world. Nothing can hurt him. Not even the bad people that come to me in my nightmares. That's what I thought anyway. Daddy had picked me up from school and told me it was time for our weekly movie outing but not to tell Mommy because she would be mad that he had taken me out on a school night. So we went into the big city and he asked what I wanted to see. I said the one with the short people and all of the swords and the ring and stuff. Daddy said that I couldn't sit through it. I told him I could and that I would be good. Daddy gave in. The movie was great. I didn't move the whole time.
When we got out of the movie it was dark and we had to walk down the street to the parking lot where Daddy had parked. So Daddy took my hand and we began walking. In a really dark part of the street a man came out of the alley and told Daddy to give him his wallet and watch. He also wanted the pretty necklace I was wearing that Mommy had given to me. Daddy said the man could have whatever he wanted just as long as he didn't hurt us. So Daddy gave the man his wallet and watch but then Daddy bent down to me and asked me to take the necklace off. I didn't want to so I began crying. Daddy told me that he would buy me another one but that I had to give this man the one I had on. I was still crying when the man yanked the necklace off of my neck. It hurt when he did that. Daddy began yelling at the man that he had what he wanted and to let us go. I was looking down at the ground when I heard three loud pops.
"What are you looking at, Merry," Pippin called across the field to his cousin.
Merry looked back to Pippin with a confused look on his face ",There's a little girl here. She's sleeping."
I woke up and screamed at the face that was only inches from mine. "Where's my daddy ? I wanna go home," I wailed.
"Its okay. I don't know where your daddy is. Did he let you wander off ?"
"I don't know," I sniffed, rubbing the tears off of my cheeks roughly.
"I tell you what," the chubby man said ",why don't you come with me and Pippin and we'll try to find your daddy."
I wasn't too sure. "Mommy said not to go with strangers."
"My names Meriadoc Brandybuck and this is my cousin Peregrin Took." I looked over his shoulder to see another chubby man smile big at me. "You can call us Merry and Pippin. What is your name ?"
"Annabeth. Annabeth Voight. My daddy just calls me Anna though."
Merry held out his hand to me ",Well, come on Anna. Lets find your daddy."
I took his hand and he didn't let go when I stood up. He felt safe. He felt like family. I smiled at them.
"How old are you Anna," Pippin asked.
"Five and a half."
"Half," Merry questioned.
"It makes me sound older."
"Oh," both men said together.
"I don't understand why she won't wake up. She wasn't shot. She wasn't even hurt. Tell me why she won't wake up."
"Mrs. Voight, your daughter has just went through a very traumatic experience," the doctor said in a hushed tone. "She just saw her father murdered. Her mind is trying to make sense of everything. Until its able to she won't wake up."
"Is she in a coma ? Or is she just asleep ?"
"She has gone to her own world, Mrs. Voight. A place that she feels safe."
Mrs. Voight began to cry new tears.
A/N 2- I know its a very short chapter. Let me know what you think so I can continue it. The plot bunnies just wouldn't leave me alone on this one.
