Even though it was in the middle of summer tonight was a cold and stormy night. Her mother was having to work late tonight and her step-father just walked in the door with her half sisters. She knew she had to hide. If he found her it would be another long terrible night. She couldn't take another long, crazy, painful, horrible night. She has had enough pain. She shouldn't have to endure this anymore. She should be allowed to leave and move on from this. She needs to live her own life for herself. She needs and wants to be free. She was going to find a way out one way or another. It's time for her freedom even if she has to take it by force. I am her, and she is me. My name is Violet, and this is the story of how I became the most known and feared teenager of all time in our little town. The pain and suffering my step-father caused me started when I was only Eight years old. I decided I will no longer be a prisoner. And I will not ask forgiveness for what I have done. I wasn’t feel
Within seconds I was completely drenched from head to toe. I had bruises all over my body and my mouth was still bleeding, it's pouring down rain and I have no where to go, I took off running knowing I had no time to rest. It wasn't possible for me to go to any of my friends houses, most of them had no idea what was going on, I couldn’t call anyone as I didn’t have my phone. Plus most of their parents were acquainted ennough with Steven they would just call him and let them know I was there. It would be reported as yet another run away scheme and not what it really was an escape from the prison they call home. Suddenly I remembered what Zoey and her twin brother Jaylor had told me, they have a treehouse with a bed in it where their father use to take them camping, to go to the treehouse if I was ever in trouble. Jaylor was the only one that knew the whole truth about what Steven had done. Zoey just knew part of it, I couldn’t bare telling her the whole truth she was my best friend and
With that question I looked up and glared at him. Thinking to myself can he not see that I am busy plotting my own schemes here? Does he not think about that now that I have a power I’m not just gonna sit back anymore? Before I could babble more in my head he took his phone out and called Zoey. Angrily I asked, “Why did you call your sister? I don’t want her involved in this.” He sat there looking at my guiltily not knowing what to say. Just as I was about to scold him more Zoey walked in. Of course as soon as she saw what state I was in she panicked. She only glanced at my body for a quick second before she ran to me. In a panicked state she stated, “Violet we must take you to the hospital right away. What happened to you? Did Steven go too far again and hit you?” I responded, “Zoey, it's always been more than just hitting and I can not go to the hospital. There is nothing anyone will do about it.” Looking exhausted I did not explain further, for I couldn't explain the secretes of my
Just as I was getting worried I got a message from Zoey checking on me. She even sent one to Jaylor when I didn’t respond right away. I had always been close to Zoey. She was the sister I always wanted before my little sisters were born. I would have been lost without her. I couldn’t bear the thought of her being super mad at me and not talking to me. I was so relieved when I got her message. It was now Friday which meant family night and I would be left all alone in the treehouse. Jaylor had finished getting ready and was leaving to go to dinner. Before he left he promised he would come straight back after family night. I was too tired and stressed to fix myself anything to eat. I was getting ready to read a book to pass time until he got back. When I decided I might as well just get ready for bed first. I was reading when Zoey and Jaylor walked in. I jumped up and gave Zoey a big hug as I was happy to see her. Somehow she got her mom to let her spend the night in the treehouse. Being
Before I could even think about taking the Police Chief out I needed to train harder. My power was strong but I couldn’t always control it.No matter what I did I always Glowed an Amber color. The time has finally come. I will get my revenge on them all of them. My fireballs needed to be perfected as well as my aim. My fireballs are that of a warm campfire without the wood. There's a happy warm feeling when I use them. I get lost in that pretend safety feeling. I must get over that if I am to perfect them. My igniting things needed to be more proficient. I needed to learn how to be stealthy. If I was going to do this I had to do this right. I had to be able to control my breathing and my anger. I know my anger will get the best of me if I can't learn to control it. I can't afford to fail. Failure is not an option. I want to be free from all of this. I will not be a sex slave anymore. I had to be quiet. I had to be invisible. I knew this was going to take a lot of work. So I had to get s
Now it was time to train harder. The first one was a little rocky so we can’t have that next time. That just doesn't work. I trained super hard for a couple days and rested for one before deciding it was time to follow the next target. I could no longer count them as a person all I could call them was a target detaching myself from them all together. I spent a couple of weeks following the next target because I decided to get more of them than one person at once this time. Four cars equals eight people and I wanted them all at once. These eight will fall together. They will all fall at once. There will be no one left standing when I'm done. Next on my list were the deputies; they were all partnered together so this would be fast; they always ate lunch at the local dinner. I waited for them to get out of the dinner once all the cars where on the road I ran out in front of them to make them stop. They crashed into one another and that wasn’t enough for me. I threw fireballs at
This next one would be hard for me. The risk of getting caught was a lot higher. But MRS. JOHNSON had to be next. I had to train even harder to blend in so I would not be seen. My blending in training was going to be extensive. I needed to be pretty much invisible and quick or I would never pull this off. This target was going to be more challenging as it was inside instead of outdoors and the public space only made it worse. At least having first hand knowledge of where all the cameras are helps. After all I had only been going there my whole life it seems. There was only one school in this dinky town. Really who names a town Little Dude anyhow? So we are the Little Dude Of Texas like why? I mean our team was the Little Dude Ranchers. Someone had a sense of humor. I knew I was going back to school for my teacher who was wrapped around Steven’s fat finger. She would pay for letting him use her classroom to molest me. I got to the school and for a moment I hesitated going into t
The plans for the ugly step loser and my horrific mother had to be 100% absolutely perfect. I had to train myself emotionally for this. I knew they were going to try and turn my sisters against me. I would have to spend months going to my sisters and making sure they are okay and getting more information about what my crazy parents are up to. I have been on my own so long now that it seems natural. If I go through with this who will take care of Anna and Kaylee. I had to find someone to care for them before I could move on. Our Grandmother mysteriously died trying to get custody of me from my parents. That left no one else. I must find a suitable person too care for the girls. As I still have been going out at night taking out anyone else that thinks it’s okay to force themselves on anyone. I must go into town I have nothing left. As I walk through town everyone cowards and hides. In fact the only person not scared of me is Steven. Zoey saw me and at first she was coming to me until sh
Jay wakes up before Violet and smiles. This feels right, he thinks to himself. “I love you Violet with my whole heart.”, Jay whispers before kissing her cheek. She stirs and looks at him. Before she can say anything he kisses her. The kiss was so passionate that Violet let out a soft moan. It’s almost spring now. When they pull apart they get dressed and head out to the kitchen. Violet makes a big breakfast for everyone. She made homemade biscuits and gravy with bacon, sausage, and fried eggs. Everyone came out to the kitchen because the food smelled so good. Jay had made the coffee and poured everyone a cup and set the table. As the food was ready Violet brought it to the table and put it in the center. They all started eating and sipping their coffee. Violet was the first to speak up, “I want a June wedding so the girls can be a part of it too.” Mr. Tally handed Jay, Zo, and Vi an envelope for a note for each of them to read. They all read them out loud after they were done eatin
Once everyone was there I reread my grandmother’s instructions to everyone. I have no idea how long this will take. Mr. Tally got the water ready. When the moon is high peak I'm sure the pictures will glow then. Everyone was aware of what had to be done. We enjoyed a nice dinner together and played a game of phase 10 while we waited. The pictures started glowing a hunter green and I immediately went out and warmed my hand placed them at the heart of the garden for 30 seconds and then poured the water Mr. Tally had prepared for me. I went back in the house to the others. The permanent roses on my feet seemed to have climbed to my ankles as climbing roses. When I was back in the house I gave everyone hugs. Mr. Tally let Jay know he had grabbed another pale of water placed by the door for when it was time. He would stay as long as he needed to. I saw the picture turn from hunter green to lilac. I smiled and told them it was time. Jay held my hand and walked me to the door. Before h
I know it will be back to normal tomorrow morning.Well for the next couple of weeks. So we thought. Mr. Tally had not told us that we were going to receive a crash course to finish early in the next week. I sat down and finished my last few writing assignments I had left as makeup work. I sighed heavy every time I started and finished one. Jay handed me a cup of coffee without me asking. He is incredibly sweet and I just noticed all he has done is stare at me. When I finished he moved the papers away from and looked at me. “Vi I love you and I will hold your hand every time you space and hear the call. I know its a magic call but I will go through it all with you. You are mine and will always be my love. I know we are not married yet. But I love you and this is what I can do for you.”, Jay softly whispered as he held my hands in his. Let’s get some sleep. We had a message from Mr. Tally stating he was bringing donuts for breakfast. We said thank you and went to our room. I sighed
We had the girls all weekend. The first thing Jay did on Saturday after he got up was contacted the Texas Ranger who he was in contact with when he was helping me without my knowledge. I'm so thankful he did. The Ranger told us to await his arrival and Jay gave him the address of the treehouse. We played games with the girls all morning and only eating fast foods we could fix. We had instant gritts for breakfast and extra crunchuy peanut butter with peach jelly sandwhuches for lunch. Right as Zoey was getting the chips and chocolate candy out and putting it on the table there was a loud knock on the door. I looked at Jay before getting up and going to the table. It was the Ranger so I invited him in. We sent the girls outside with Zoey so we could talk to the Ranger. They happily went. They were ready to go outside anyway. The girls were planning something special and didn't say anything not even to Zoey. They were so eager that they hurried down the ladder and Anna almost fell. After
Waking up to the cocoon both of us were completely shocked. We didn’t say a words to one another or about it to anyone. We had just finished making breakfast when Mr. Tally arrived. He was super early today. As Jay let him in you could hear the coffee pot finishing up. Luckily I over cooked for just the two of us. I set the table for the three of us and Mr. Tally just smiled and sat down. "I'm sorry to intrude on y'all's breakfast. I know I'm early today. Thank you for setting me a place at the table. I actually skipped breakfast this morning as I was in a hurry to get here this morning.", Mr. Tally said looking extremely sad. "Mr. Tally please no neeed to thank us. It is our pleasure. As we have stated you are always welcome here. Besides you are a major help to us.", I responded and Jay agreed. Mr. Tally just smiled and took a big sip of his coffee. I wonder what he has planned for today as he said it was different. We only had small talk and a few jokes while we ate breakfast. When
As usual Jay was right. A older man showed up at what would be the start of our school day. He stared at me for a long time before introducing himself. I just knew that he was staring at me, because he was terrified of me and I was getting ready too leave as a tear rolled down my face when he suddenly spoke. Jay was still to sleepy to notice what was going on. When he finally he spoke he said, "You musty be Violet and Jaylor. My name is Mr. Talley. Are you going to let me in so we can start? I'm your home bound program instructor." I step aside and let him in Jay took our cups of coffee to the table and set them down where we would usually sit. "Jay he might want some coffee too. Ask him.", I wishpered in Jay's ear. Mr. Tally agreed easily asking that the coffee be plain black. I was afraid to speak thinking I would just scare him off. I grabbed my coffee off the table and went to back away from the table so that I wouldn't make him scared, well any more sacred than he already was, to
I open my eyes and don't even think about moving. I have this super odd feeling that I can't shake. As if someone's watching my every move.... No that's not it at all. Whatever this feeling is it woke me up from a dead slumber. Which I so needed after yesterday. Before getting out of bed I searched for Jay and he is no where in sight. I strained to see if I could hear him downstairs of course not. I bet he's already headed out. I wish he would have woke me and let me know. Getting out of bed I decided to go take a shower this morning a nice long shower to be exact. A candlight shower using my Warm Rustic Woods scented candle and the steam from a pure hot shower mixed with the eucalyptus plant hanging on the shower head would be perfect this morning. I light my candle and place it on the corner of the shower with a purposeless shelf and then turn on the hot water. I can already feel the wonderful soothing this shower will bring as soon as the water heated up before I even got in. When I
The note from Jay's dad Mr. Swan reads: Violet, you have been like our family for a long time. I'm sorry you are having to read this note instead of me telling you. The fact that you are reading this means I have already passed. I was hoping to be able to take this note off and tell you myself on your birthday. Happy sixteenth VI. I knew your grandmother and father extremely well. When your grandmother passed I received a letter and in this box you will find everything that you will need accourding to that letter. However there is something I must ask of you first sweet birthday girl. Forgive me for not removing you from that household. I tried. Also please look after my Jay and Zo they will need you more than ever now that I am gone. Tell my kids that I am very proud of them and always have been. Make sure that they know I always loved them no matter what. Their mother and them meant everything to me. Vi keep a close eye on Jay I know he's going to take this the hardest. Ensure that h
After I unfolded the letter I just sat there staring at her beautiful hand writing. How I missed my grandmother. I wished I could tell her everything that was going on. This letter felt very thick. She had used a lilac colored paper and a dark blue pen to write the letter to me. I bend the folds backwards once each and its then that I notice there are multiple pages. Before reading the first page I pulled it off the stack and flipped it over and noticed she used front and back of the page. I go to take a drink of my coffee and when I put it to my mouth and realized I was out of coffee. Jay noticing this grabbed my cup went in the house and fixed me another cup of coffee and brought him a book to read out with him. I smiled at him took a drink of my coffee and put the the page back like it goes and put both hands on it pages one on each side. I let out a sigh I didn't realize I was holding in. Okay Violet get a grip you know that your grandmother left this letter for a reason, I thought
