Street Life
Chapter 3
(Dream
A tiny injured little boy was sitting in the dark, silently willing himself not to cry.
Standing above him, was a largely-built man with greying-black hair flowing down past his shoulders.
"Get up, rat"
The man continued to sneer at the boy at his feet as he tried desperately to get back onto his feet, but no matter how hard he tried, his feet kept slipping, they just couldn't support his weight.
The man growled, "You heard me boy, get up!"
Shivering and terrified as he looked up at the man over him, "I-I'm t-t-trying." the boy whimpered.
"Well, try harder!"
The boy lifted himself up again and was bringing his feet underneath him when they gave way again and he landed face first on the rough concrete, scratching his face, badly.
"Pathetic rodent!" The man yelled and kicked the boy in the side.
The boy yelled out as he rolled over the floor and smashed into the wall with a thud.
The boy moaned as pain shot up his arm. He had felt that pain before, his arm was broken again.
The boy began to shiver again as he heard the man get closer. His foot steps were like thunder.
The man bent down and picked the boy up by the scruff of the neck
"You are too weak, boy, you had better toughen up or you wont ever see the sun again, clear!"
"Y-yes, s-s-sir" the boy mumbled.
"Good!"
With that, the man dropped the boy pack onto the floor and left the tiny cellar, locking the door behind him, leaving the cellar in total darkness.
End dream)
Kai woke up from his dream, breathing hard. His body was dripping with sweat and heat radiated from his body.
He slowly sat upon his bed and hugged his knees to his chest.
It had been a long time since he had had that dream and he had hoped he would never have it again, but since when has he ever gotten what he wanted.
His dreams were always different, most were even worse then the one he had just experienced. But what made them awful was that they had all happened at some point in his life.
Kai's head jerked up as he heard a knock on his door.
"Yes?" he called, trying to keep the tremor out of his voice.
Kai gave a small smile as Selena's head came around the door.
"Oh, good your awake. I have your dinner here, young one."
Kai snorted, "I told you, I'm not…"he began
"Tell me of one time when you've said that and I've listened, hm?" Selena interrupted.
Kai sighed, same old Selena. He decided against fighting her, he didn't want to get one of the only people he cared about angry with him.
"Oh, alright, I'll eat it."
Selena smiled triumphantly and brought the tray in.
She laid it on his lap then sat on the edge of the bed next to him.
Kai almost laughed when he saw what she had brought him. After all that time away she remembered what she made him every Saturday night. Spaghetti Bolognese.
"Thanks"
Kai slowly began to eat his dinner, with Selena watching him the whole time. She had a big innocent grin on her face but Kai could tell she was making sure he ate all of the food., and just to please her, he did.
"Not hungry, huh?" Selena asked.
"Whatever" Kai replied.
Suddenly, from downstairs a massive slam sounded.
Kai felt a tiny twinge of fear hit him. He knew that slam very well. It could only mean one thing:
Voltaire was home.
