Chapter 2

Gar carefully hid his tools for his addiction in his clothes, and then jumped into a shower.

Robin sat in his tiny little room, decorated with a filthy bunk, a broken stool, upon which he sat, and a dirty seat less toilet. In the dead of the night, besides the light given by the moon, that shone through the minute barred window, and the light through the barred door given from the corridor. Very little was received from a dull and muck-smeared caged light-bulb.

The floor of the room was covered in a film of dirt and a drip-dripping sound could be heard from the leaking plumbing. The stench of sweat, blood and a decaying rat hung in the air. The lights flickered and he lifted up his head.

His neighbour opposite him, a large bearded man covered in jailhouse tattoos of death and destruction walked forward. Robin got up from his broken chair; it was only going to be a couple of minutes before he got out. He walked towards the barred door and his long sleek fingers encircled around the hard corroded metal bars.

He'd been in here for seven years after he had beaten a man to death for raping his little sister. He hadn't seen her for years; apparently his family who had taken her in had forbid her to come visit him. When he got out he was going take his little sister and move out of this town and away from everything.

He had a large sum of money deposited in a long term deal, which was finishing in this month, so he could buy a house and support his sister and himself. Robin had worked it all out; he had lots of time to do that.

The guard came down the hall and then stopped at his door. Unlocking the door and telling him to grab all his things, Robin was then led down the long hall and into the other corridor. He was then led out of the jail and finally out of the large highly guarded gates at the perimeter of the government grounds. The sun was rising, and lit up the dark sky with strands of yellow light.

Robin walked towards the cab and one of the guards thrust forward the last of his other items. Robin then got into the cab and it took him to Santa Monica, where his relatives were situated. After the long drive, he got out at the address he had given the cab driver and stood before a small peach coloured house.

He then walked down the paved pathway to the front door. Knocking lightly on the door after a few moments the door was wretched open by none other than Raina-Lee, his little sister, who obviously wasn't that little anymore. At eighteen she was a young woman, with beautiful shoulder length sandy brown hair, and ocean blue eyes. She was much shorter than him, with a small bust, long legs and a good figure. Her tear filled eyes lit up when she saw him, "Robin" she said before flinging herself into his arms.

Robin held his sister tight, and then he felt her shudder when a voice yelled, "Who the hell is at the door Lee?"

She seemed to shrink into him, as if she wanted to phase into his body. Robin then looked up when a bald headed man emerged from inside the house. The man was a good head shorter than Robin and very scrawny compared to Robin's worked out bulked up size. Robin was at least five sizes bigger than him. With short black hair, blazing blue eyes, a perfect row of teeth and enough charisma to charm the gayest of men, he apposed a large threat to the bald man.

"Who the fuck are you?" he asked narrowing his eyes, and a hint of whiskey could be detected in his breath.

"The question is who the hell are you?" Robin said his voice icy.

"I'm Lee's boyfriend" he remarked and then gripped Raina-Lee by her arm and wretched her out of Robin's embrace.

She bit back a whimper and then the door was slammed in his face. Robin frowned and then after a few moments turned around and walked to the rear end of the house. Slinging the duffel bag, containing all his valuables, he jumped over the small gate and walked around the back.

The back door was wide open and he saw Raina signaling to him that she was going to come. Not willing to barge in and cause a scene, Robin played it how his sister obviously wanted him to play it. He waited quietly for a few hours, listening to yelling and screaming before his sister emerged with a duffel bag of her own. The two then escaped the house, took a cab and left LA for good.

Robin listened to his sister's story of her life, and realised that after he was convicted and sentenced, she was then taken in by some distant relatives of theirs.

As their parents died a year before Robin's sentence, they only really had each other, but after the neighbourhood bad boy took a liking to Raina he pursued her, when his advances where ignored by her, frustration ate at him and then he forcefully raped the young girl. When Robin came home from work, he found his sister huddled on the bed petrified and when she stuttered to him what had happened after he'd comforted her, he immediately took her to the local clinic.

She was told to stay overnight and then Robin left her, after she went to sleep; and he went to hunt down the bastard. Furious, he blocked him in an alley and used his baseball bat and beat the guy till he was drenched in blood and the cops had surrounded him. Robin was then taken to jail and after his trial he was sentenced for seven years in prison after a friend who he had helped out, used his contacts and found a good lawyer to represent him.

Raina was then taken to their distant relatives and forced to have an abortion as she had been impregnated. After they moved to Canada, a few years later with not enough money to take Raina along, they left her in the big city alone.

Raina became a call-girl for a year, then took up a job as waitress, met Deacon, and fell in love. Deacon had bought the house that her relatives had sold and she soon after moved in with him. But soon she realized that Deacon wasn't what he seemed and started beating her and selling her to his friends to make money. And after a few months of tolerating that she was rescued by Robin.

She admitted to not telling Robin this because she didn't want Robin to go back to jail, because she knew he wouldn't hesitate into attacking the guy named Deacon, she needed him now more than ever. She hadn't been able to allocate where he was because her guardians refused for her to see her brother. The two decided to start their new life in New York.

Yeah so Robin is a murderer, Raven was a crack head and a stripper, and Garfield is addicted to heroin, and Garfield and Raven are married, and Raven is pregnant. Some crazy story huh? Well I hope you like it. Please review and tell me what you think.

Thanks
