She was too young to see it coming. It came too fast, too fast for a girl of her age. The shadow pounced on it's prey and shattered its joy. She was a pain, a raw pain. The person she had trusted ruined her_her dad.

That night, she had sat on the porch listening to her dad yelling at her beautiful mom, it was not a new to her; it was always just shocking and terrifying to her.

Her father's love had been very much smooth at the beginning that she thought life was a bed full of roses and no thorns, but then; he changed.

Into something worse.

Something bad.

Something disastrous.

She thought it was only the yells and groans, but he wanted something more. Something she didn't want to give.

Her mom.

Her dad had yelled at her and dragged her like a filthy old rag to the dim lit room. She remembered him kicking into her mother's flesh in agitation and anger while the woman winced in serious pain, but he didn't care.

She didn't and couldn't do anything, she could only stand and watch her mom being brutally beaten by the beast she always regarded as her father.

Then he brought out the devil; what his daughter hated and feared the most_a pistol.

He had pointed it at his wife but his little naive daughter would not want to see it. She screamed as loud as she could but her voice was too tiny and choked. The man wasn't in for something new anyways as he, without a second thought or remorse, shot the woman he onced love, her body sprawled helplessly on the white floor. The bullet stuck her chest fine chest, smearing blood on the little girl she'd birthed.

The little girl remembered her mother's last words "be a good girl for momma and fight for your right to live" and her once bright blue eyes went shut immediately.

Emma was shocked to the marrow, her face became pale as death, the blood on her hoodie smelling fresh and raw_ a pain to always remember.

After the crime scene, her dad bounded her to the small spooky warehouse where no one could find her and locked her there to strive for her self. She was the reason why all these Happened after all, the old man thought grubbily and left the place almost immediately before the police arrived.

The little girl had cried and shouted for help, but no one was near, or maybe her dad killed them all too, but she knew she wasn't going to die, she had to live just like her momma told her.
