"Come here little one. I won't harm you. I love you" the voice calls, soothing, calm, yet it has my hair on ends. I know that voice it's his voice. I know I should be moving, but I can't.

"Little one!" the voice is becoming angry, "Come here!" I know if I don't move I will pay for it later.

"I can't!" I want to scream "I'm stuck!" but my voice has left me.

"How dare you disobey me!" then he lashes out. He hits me, once, just once across the face and I fall to the ground. His slap didn't break skin, yet I'm bleeding not just on my face, but everywhere. Pain burns across my flesh as I feel the warm blood beginning to pool around me.

"I will show you what happens to bad little boys like you." Then there he was, pulling in and out of me. Finally I find my voice, and I scream a high-pitched noise. And he's gone. I'm alone and still bleeding. I lay there for what seems like an eternity, doing nothing but feeling the waves of pain flow over my body, and then I hear it. It's soft, calm and chaired the wind I didn't know was there.

"Satoshi" I push myself to my feet, ignoring the pain that was brought to life by the action, and the blood that poured from me. I should have died already, but I can't. Because he won't let me. But maybe, just maybe, if I tell then I can be free.

"Satoshi……….where are you?" I hear the call. And I'm no longer walking, but running; leavening a gruesome trail behind me.

I stumble and fall to the ground. "Satoshi." I hear again. I look up to see you there. My heart feels warm. I smile as you hold out you hand to help me up. I try to reach or it but I'm frozen again, my voice gone.

"Satoshi? Satoshi!" I keep trying; I see your face fall, tears starting to overwhelm your beautiful eyes.

"Please! Let me help! Satoshi! Please!" I cant I'm frozen. Then I see it, looking just past you I see him there. He's smiling, and the reason I can't move. He didn't want me happy, so I won't be, I will never be free.

"Satoshi! Satoshi!"

I feel my own tears fall down my face. Please, don't turn away from me, don't leave me.

But you are going to.

I see you face turn from sadness to rage. "Fine! Die for all I care! If you don't want help you don't deserve it! Your not worth it." And you turn away from me. And all he does is smile.

"Satoshi! SATOSHI!"

My sobs rack my body, blood gushing all the more. But the pain in my body isn't anything to the pain I feel in my soul, I'm being torn apart from the inside. Half of me wants to stand up and scream of all my worth that I'm worth more than he will ever know, that he cant control me, because I am me. The other half wanting to curl up into a ball and die, leave this place of pain and misery behind me, ignore the words that hurt me so. A fresh round of sobs wracking my body, as the words where repeated over and over in my head.

Because deep down, I know it's true

"SATOSHI!"

I'm shaken awake to find a pair of ruby eyes and a pair of golden one looking down at me, hiding no worry the smaller asks, "Satoshi, are you okay?"

I nod slightly, and sit up. I open my mouth but my voice dies in my throat. Krad knows what I mean anyway. " Its 5:57."

All thoughts die away as I hear those words. I'll never get home in time. I'm already late, and I will suffer for it, I stand and walk to the door. I turn and manage a small wave as I rush out.

I start as a walk, knowing I wont get home in time, but then it turns to a run as I hope that maybe, just maybe, he'll be late, that I'll beat him home.

I'm out of breath as I reach the house. I freeze as I see his car isn't parked outside. I could have cried right then, I rushed inside and smile, something good finally happened.

"You are late." I hear from behind me. My heart freezes. I didn't beat him back. I was too late. And now I have to pay the price.

I bite my tongue as his hand slaps me. I know this dance, and I know that crying wont do me any good.

Because, I'm just not worth it.


Woo! Update! I know it bites hard core, but I thought you guys should get something, so this was kind of thrown together.

Another update will be up soon, so review?
