X.XU Don't ask where I got the idea for this, but I was in the mood to write something angsty. I might continue it…xxU

“Shoot me!!!!”

 

Elizabeth flinched and snuggled under blankets more. Rare as it was, she hated it when her parents fought, `Please Lord,' she prayed silently, `please make them stop fighting.”

 

Suddenly there was a gone shot.

 

Elizabeth felt her heart drop. It had finally happened. Her father had finally gotten drunk enough to actually kill her mother.

 

`I have to get out of here…' She thought desperately. If he was drunk enough to kill her nother over a stupid argument, think of what he would do to her! She grabbed an old backpack in her room and filled it with some clothes and personal items.

 

Hoisting the backpack over her shoulders she looked into the mirror one last time, a 10 year old brunette stared back at her, silver eyes full of terror.

 

Finally wrenching herself away from the image she went to her window and unlocked it. Opening it she felt the warm summer's breeze. `A clear night,' she though, climbing onto the window sill, `at least something is going right…'

 

Right after she dropped to the ground she heard a door slam and flinched. He was coming.

 

But where to go? She couldn't go to one of her few friends houses, to obvious and they could get hurt. She didn't trust the police, nor wanted to bother with their questioning. Actually, she didn't care where she went, as long as she and the people around her were safe.

 

She heard her bedroom door open and forced herself to run. `Anywhere!' she yelled at her legs, hoping they would do al the work because she could barely think, `Just take me away from HIM!'

 

Running as fast as she could, she finally stopped at an old abandoned park. Curling up into a small ball underneath some old tires put there for climbing she cried herself to sleep.

 

“Hello?”

 

Elizabeth groaned and opened an eye. Standing in front of her was a boy with long black hair. She closed her eyes before taking in anymore of his features, it was too early and to bright for this.

 

“So you are alive,” the boy smiled, “Why are you here, all alone?”

 

“Reasons,” Elizabeth replied, not wanting to remember the night before.

 

Mokuba shrugged and stuck out his hand, “I'm Mokuba.”

 

“Elizabeth,” she introduced herself and let him pull her up.

 

“Where do you live?” He asked with polite curiosity.

 

Elizabeth looked around, “Here…I guess.”

 

Mokuba frowned, “What about your parents?”

 

Elizabeth looked at the ground and remained silent.

 

“Oh….” Mokuba said, taking the hint, “Maybe you'd like to come to my house, I'm sure Nii-sama wouldn't mind.”

 

“That's a nice offer...and it's tempting but…no.” Elizabeth replied, picking up her backpack. She did not want Mokuba to get involved. He was too nice of a kid.

 

“I insist,” Mokuba took her wrist and started to drag her in a random direction.

 

“I said no!” She yelled, pulling her wrist free and running off.

Okay, as I said I MIGHT or MIGHT NOT finish this. Just had to write it. If reviewers are nice enough I'll continue. AKA REVIEW!
