Christian P0V

"I'm really sorry officer, I don't know what's gotten into her," said my mom talking to the police who had me handcuffed.

"That's one tuff kid you got there," said the officer.

"She doesn't act like this at home," my mom said.

"How would you know, your never there, the only time I see you is when you drop me off at karate," I spoke up.

"Is this true mam," said the officer.

"Well I do work most days, but it's enough to get food on the table," my mom said.

"What food, me Laycia and Maya have frozen diners everynight," my mom gave me a look that in my head said, 'Shut the fuck before I beat you,' for a brief second.

"Anyway, your daughter has cut her classes and caused havoc amongst her school and the neighboring school, and she had asulted one of our officers," the police said.

"How on earth did she do that," said my mom acting surprised.

"Well, she had set off smoke bombs in front of every classroom in her school causing the fire alarm to go off and students to panic, and she through a thick smoke bomb through the window of the neighboring school, when the police came to take her she had kicked 1 of our officers in between his legs causing him to crouch over in pain," said the officer.

I chuckled remembering the moment before I was arrested before my mom nudged me in my side.

"I'm sure we could get this sorted out," my mom said.

"Yeah, like you sorted out divorce papers for you and dad, or the papers to get my brother sent away, and he was my twin no less," I scoffed.

"Um, mam, do you mind leaving the room, so I can have a chat with your daughter," said the officer.

"Um, fine," my mom said before grabbing my arm and leaning into my ear and saying, "Don't even think about blabbering you tiny little mouth off, or more than just you will be punished," she said before leaving.

"OK, well I'm officer Wayne, I got a son your age, quite a good kid, he went through a lot when he was young before I took him in, and I'm guessing you have as well along with your sisters, yes?" The officer said.

"Yeah," I replied.

"Well, here's what I need you to do, what your mom just said and what you said that she did doesn't exactly add up, and with your current conditions, quite skinny and a little pale, you got a lot of strength for a girl, so if you can tell me how you came do what's got you in handcuffs now, I'll only charge for the damage, and that not all the much," he said.

"Okay," I said reluctantly, "is all started yesterday when I was doing my homework..."

~Flashback~

I sit on the couch in my living room with my homework spread out. I need to get this done before mother gets home, if not I'll never see the light again.

"CHRISTIAN," my mother yelled as she put her key in the lock.

"Oh crap, LAYCI!" I called to my 9 year old sister Laycia.

"Yeah," she said a little rushed.

"Mom's home, change into your clothes and give me some of your homework," I said.

"Ok," she quickly gave me some papers before rushing back upstairs. I slipped on my uniform sweater and oganized Layci's homework to make it look like it was mine.

My mother finally got the door open and she walked through the door with a pissed off face on.

"Good afternoon mother," I said.

"Did you do your homework," she said.

"Yes, I was just packing up," I said.

"Get me my bottle of booze, and make sure Maya doesn't find out about the you know what again, or your gonna get it even harder, I even brought Tim over to do my dirty work," my mother said leaning into my ears as a large bulky man walked through the door. Sometimes I hate being 15, ever since mother has brought rapists and fighters into the house to punish me.

"Yes mam," I said putting up my middle finger behind my back.

I went into the kitchen and into the small wine fridge in the corner and got my mom's alcohol. You see outside of the house me and my mom have a sister like relationship that every mother and daughter wish they had, but inside the house me and my sisters were practically servants and if we didn't obey we would be beaten to a pulp, not to mention my mom was and alcoholic, there's actually a scar on my shoulder from her throwing a wine glass and it broke against my bones. I brought the bottle to my mom with a fake smile on my face and went up stairs.

I went upstairs and into me and my sisters hang out/hide out. In there was my 9 year old sister Laycia and my 7 year old sister Maya, both of them wearing large sweaters like me, it was kind of my mother's dress code, not allowed to show any skin above our knees unless being 'punished'.

"Is she in a bad mood," asked Maya in her little voice.

"Luckily no, but it seems like she could tick any moment," I said.

"I'm a little scared, the more alcohol she drinks the angrier she gets, and and the angrier she gets..." Laycia started.

"...the harder she beats," Maya finished.

"It's not just beats," I trailed off.

"What do you mean," Maya said in confusion.

"You see, I'm 15 now and a little stronger than the average girl, so I could pick a fight with mother no doubt, so mother brings in men to get my punishing over with... but it's the type of punishing that has me worried about when your my age," I said.

"But what does that mean," asked Maya.

"Lace, have you taken the...course nobody likes in school," I said.

"Which one," Laycia said which a small smile from her comment.

"I'm serious, the one that starts with and H and ends with and ealth, preferably the term with the s-e-x in it," I said being aware of my 7 year old sister.

"Oh, that course, no, your supposed to take that in the 6th grade, not looking forward to it," Laycia said.

"Your still innocent, your both still innocent," I mumbled.

"MAYA!!" screamed my mother from downstairs.

"Wish me luck," said Maya getting up and pulling down her oversized sweater.

"We're coming to," I said me and Layci standing up.

"You always come with me when Mother calls, I'm gonna be 8 in a couple months, I'm a big girl," Maya said.

"But the last time, we let you go alone mom gave you this," Laycia said rolling up Maya's sleave to reveal a scar accross her arm.

I picked Maya up and held her in my arms, "M, I have scars in places scars should never be, and once you two hit the age of 10 yours will only get worse, I took advantage of the somewhat freedom at your age which is why I have all my electronic devices and and my Karate classes, because I couldn't fight back at your age, so mother had seen no reason to not let me have them, your still young and in less than 5 years I'm gonna be of age to move out, your our little sister and we'll protect you while we can," I said walking out the door with Laycia which putting Maya down so she can walk.

We went downstairs with Maya walking in front of us she having been the one called.

"You called mother," said Maya.

"Yes, the phone rang a while ago, and it was someone named Johnathan, care to explain your whereabouts with this boy," said mother.

Maya scared blankly for a moment before I whispered in her ear, "whereabouts means business or knowledge, in this case, what is your business with the boy," I whispered quietly.

"Um, well he's just a friend from school, he cares dearly for me," Maya said a hint of red coating her cheeks.

"How dearly does this boy care for you," mother kneeling down with an intimidating glare.

"Well, Um, he's protected me from dodge balls and painful hits and he's defended me in verbal situations," Maya said looking down her face going darker shade of red.

"Maya, this boy is...special to you, correct," asked mother skeptically.

"Um, well...I would say...um, yes," Maya said in a small voice her face now even redder.

"Hmm, interesting, well Maya you know my rules about dating...you can't ever," mother said grabbing the belt. The beating belt.

"Why does it matter if I like a boy, Christian has a boyfriend," Maya burted out.

"Maya!!" I yelled at her for telling my secret.

"Oh does she now," mother said looking over to me with a devious looking smile clutching the belt tighter. "Well, we can't have that," she swung the belt at buy because of my reflexes I caught the belt before it could reach my skin.

"I guess karate has helped you in some ways, but always remember...I am your mother," mother said before catching me off guard and smacking me hard on the back of my head, I got dizzy and soon everything got darker and I collapsed on the floor.

"Tim, take her upstairs, she needs a punishment and you need a reward, don't worry, she's not a very sound sleeper, she'd probably wake up in the middle of it," was the last thing I heard before blacking out.

I woke up the next morning not wearing any clothes and my legs spread unhumanly apart. I guess this is my life I got up and got dressed in my school inform which was a white collared shirt T-shirt with a gray plaid pleated skirt, and with my long legs the skirt was obviously too short for the dress code so I had to wear shorts underneath but I didn't mind, I'm not a fan of skirts anyway. I was about to grab my bag and leave when I thought of an idea to finally get my mom's abusive mothering turned in, I would be arrested but my mom will be at the police station already and all I have to do is confess. I grabed my favorite black boots (AKA the boot I have in my TT uniform) brushed my curly hair put it in a bun and grabbed a couple smoke bombs and a bag of flour.

"Christian, what are you doing," asked Laycia.

"Something I should have done awhile ago, now hurry up, you need to watch this, but run if you hear sirens," I said grabbing Maya's shoes and telling her to put them on.

"Sounds interesting, I like interesting, but what about mother," said Laycia.

"Already left, now c'mon," I said pulling her out the door.

~Flashback over~

"I think you know the rest," I said.

"What was the flour for," asked officer Wayne.

"I put it in the smoke bombs to make it thicker," I said.

"You know I can always have you transfered to a different school away from your mother, you could go to my son's school, it's a boarding school so you won't have to go back home for 4 years," offered officer Wayne.

"What about my sisters, Laycia is almost 10, for me that's when it got harder to stand and Maya is still an innocent and small girl, I don't think they can handle it, I only did because I was able to the karate and after the turn out of my karate classes mothers isn't gonna let them take the classes," I said.

"We'll have that taken care of too, you've been through a lot, let's just sort that out for now," he said.

"One question though," I said.

"Hm~" he hummed in response.

"Can I get these handcuffs off me."
