Prudence's Story:
The little child just sat there, amongst the tall grass, alone. She didn't cry or even whimper, she just watched the beautiful lady down by the lake. Then, on her wobbly legs, she tried to go to the lady. It took her a while but she was finally there, by the lakeside. At first the woman just kept swimming but soon she noticed the little girl. The woman slowly made her way up the bank. She took the girl in her arms. Around the child's neck was a chain with a small heart pendant. On it was engraved, 'Prudence'. The woman carried the girl back to her home and acted like it was a miracle. She was now a mother.
Prudence was swimming in the lake, exactly like her mother had done before. She was playing, diving under water and jumping out making waves. She was so happy but that was about to change. As Prudence pulled herself onto the bank and sat down on her towel, a shadowy figure crept up behind a tree. He watched as Prudence slipped on a summer dress before lying back and closing her eyes. This is when he struck. He grabbed Prudence and tied her up. There was a gag in her mouth and she was doomed.
Three days later Prudence awoke in a van. It was dark and they were moving. She couldn't scream, she wanted to so badly. A few hours later the van stopped and Prudence rolled across the floor. Then she gasped as the same figure appeared at the door. He grabbed her and pulled her across to him. The friction that was caused burned her back and arms. She winced at the pain, but didn't cry. He dumped her on the floor, untied her bounds then just drove away. Prudence was all alone, on a beach, in a city she didn't know. She missed her mother. She tried to remember what she had said to do if they were ever apart. Now Prudence remembered,
"I need help," she whispered, "please help me"
That one special spirit heard her call.
