Chapter 1

(Still in America)

You're sitting in your room, writing a letter to your best friend, Lily Evens, while your door is closed and locked with a chair under the knob.

Lily,

How is your summer break so far? I was wondering if I could spend the rest with you and maybe stay for school for a year. That is…if it's--"

'Bang Bang Bang'

"YOU BITCH! OPEN THIS FUCKING DOOR!" your "mom" yelled you start to panic because if your "mom" was yelling, your dad will break down the door…again. So you start to write again, but really fast:

…anyway please reply if you can ASAP!

Love, Ray-ray

That's when the banging started to get so bad; the hinges on the door were shaking. You quickly fold the letter and run to your fruit bat ( A/N: yes fruit bat, cuz I like fruit bats), Rouge, and tied the letter to her leg.

"Please take this to Lily," The hinges were almost off and you really stated to get jittery, "and hurry as fast as you can!"

You quickly opened the window and Rouge, flew out and went really fast. You watch her and tune out everything, as if you were in a trance, not even hearing the door being literally broken down by your father.

Rouge you're my last hope

The next thing you know is a huge pain on the side of your face and your head having contact with the floor. Though you say nothing you face held fear, shock, and sorrow as your father starts to rip your clothes off. That's when you came back to reality. You started to scream and struggle though you know it won't do anything, only make him more "excited" as he lies on top of you and leans into whisper in your ear.

"You can scream all you want; it won't change the fact that I know you want this."

He then grabbed you face to make you look at him and then forcibly kisses you shoving his tongue into your mouth, then you did a very bold thing by biting down on his tongue. He then pulls back and slaps you so hard that you blacked out. There, you lie on your bedroom floor only in bra and underwear with your father straddling you with nothing on but his pants.

"I know your just going toLOVE this" he whispers in your ear as he picks you up and puts you on your bed then got on top of you again. He then caresses your check and starts to unbuckle his pants when you started to wake up. You slowly turn your head to look up at him and start to move your leg then hit him really hard in-between his legs. You fathers expression changes from amusement quickly to pain and doubled over and off the bed with a thud. Then you quickly got off the bed and put on a bathrobe on and ran out of your room to the attic as you hear your father getting up, running and yelling after you. And you, being smaller than him, you run faster and is already in the attic pushing heavy boxes over the attic door, flap, thingy (A/N: I have no clue what the thing is called ). Then you sit down panting away from the door, and then pulled your knees up to your chest and laud your head down in your knees and cried silently.

I have to get out of here…

You get up after a few minutes and open the attic window so when Rouge comes back she can come through the window.

Rouge…Please...Hurry…I don't know how much longer I can last…

Then you lie down on some blankets that were up there, from the last time you were up there when you would go just to get away from everything and read about being and animagus, and cover up, closing your eyes, and slowly, silently cry your self into a dreamless yet peaceful sleep.
