Hello all! I decided to write (I actually just wrote 'right' instead of 'write' #MyBrainIsWorkingTooHard :( lol) after revising science for 4 hours. Oh and Ryan's name isn't a character on this site for some reason so I've put Tee and not Ryan.
"T...they...tortured m...me" Ryan was in floods of tears. Tee was absolutely horrified!
"W..what happened?" she bravely asked him, putting her arm around his shoulder. "Calm yourself down, then tell me." Ryan took a moment to compose himself before carrying on.
"I was sent to this home for mentally ill care kids. The care worker was insane himself and wasn't taking his meds for it" Ryan began.
"Then how did he get the job?" Tee frowned.
"I don't even know how he qualified to be a care worker let alone got a job." Ryan paused there.
"Go on. What happened?"
"H...he used to b...beat me" By this point, they were both in tears.
"Why though? You can't just beat a kid up!" Tee yelled.
"He beat me and this other lad because he didn't like us. We were beaten if we weren't up by a certain time, if we didn't get the chores done and if we ate more than one piece of fruit or a glass of water a day. We weren't allowed food and drink on the same day." Ryan explained, tears still falling down his cheeks. "I still have scars on my back from his beatings."
"Show me" He turned around. Tee lifted up his shirt from the back and was shocked at what she saw.
"They h...had this d...dog. It was a massive bulldog who h...hated all the k...kids a...and b...bit..." Ryan couldn't say anymore. He was too distressed.
"And is that why you set Mischief free" Ryan nodded. Tee gave him a huge hug, calming him down. Everyone was horrible to him after the whole Mischief thing happened, including Tee. Nobody but Harry and Johnny spoke to him after that incident, and Ryan couldn't tell anyone about why he did it. If only they knew, Tee thought. If only...
"TEA TIME!" Mayli shouted. All of the YP rushed down to the kitchen to get first pick of what to eat.
"Not seen you two all day." Mayli said to Ryan and Tee. They both shrugged and sat down separately on the table.
"So Ryan, were you off robbing today, or were you setting more innocent dogs free" Bailey joked and whacked him on the back.
"Bailey stop it" Tee said to him.
"Getting defensive are we? And you're supposed to be an animal lover!" Bailey argued back.
"What do you mean?" Tee questioned.
"He nearly killed my dog remember!" Bailey said back to her. Tee looked at Ryan. He was trying hard not to tear up and he was getting angry.
"Take that back!" he said fiercely.
"Make me" Ryan was about to take a punch at Bailey but Bailey punched Ryan's nose first and grabbed his left wrist. Carmen got up to pull Ryan back. She pulled his jacket back, exposing Ryan's wrists.
"Bailey you've scratched Ryan 100 times!" Floss yelled.
"No I haven't!" Bailey shouted back to her.
"Yes you have! Look..." Floss grabbed Ryan's wrist and pulled his sleeve back. Everyone was shocked.
"A...are those..." Carmen stuttered. Mayli re-entered the kitchen and saw Ryan's bloody nose and more importantly, his scars.
"Ryan...office now please." Mayli looked at him in horror. Ryan was now in tears as everyone stared at the troubled boy.
"Come on" Tee held his arm comfortingly and walked him to the office. All Ryan could think about was the torturing. He began having flashbacks. He couldn't breathe...he felt sick...he was dizzy...then heard Tee shout his name as he fell to his knees, vomiting before collapsing...
Another bonus - I CAN WRITE BEFORE BED :) But seriously...I've never written a story at this pace before lol normally its two or three updates a month and now its two or three a day (well not that often but you know what I mean). CLIFF HANGER! Everyone knows his secret! BUT...will he be moved? Here's a little HINT, so for those of you who hate hints TINY SPOILER ALERT! There is still one thing that is unanswered...
