"So, you finally wake up. 'Bout time." an evil sounding voice says.

Alright. The picture above is what Jake looks like, or similarly. He's gone through some terrible things. The dad he now calls Dad, is his Step-dad. His mom used to abuse Jake, but when she remarried, she stopped. Jake lost his sister when he was 2, his mom killed his brother when he was 6, and she scared off her husband when Jake was 7. Now, he's been bullied at school, and he doesn't know what to do, so he's taken it out on Moon. Alright that's a summary, now time for the real deal! Here we go!

-Jake's POV-

I was just heading home from school, when I heard sirens that seemed to be heading towards me. That's when I saw police cars, ambulances, and firetrucks go by me and head straight for my house. I started running hoping that mom hadn't done something horrible again. I run into the house to find her telling the people that my brother fell and hit his head, and that it was just an accidental fall. I know that she's lying though. She did this very same thing with my sister. After the people took away my brother, my mom sent me to my room. My dad was still at work, and I had homework to do. Mom always sends me to my room when she gets mad. But this time she followed me, but first she grabbed a knife. I ran to my room, and locked my door before mom could get in after me. I knew she had something planned that involved me getting hurt.

I work on my homework, and that's when I get out the newspaper that I picked up on my way into the house. I open it and the first thing I notice is that another family leaves because of a helpless little girl. She seems to always get closer to me. I wish I were her sometimes. No parents that will limit me, but I still wonder how she's gone through 3 foster parents already. I then hear a knock at the door, it's hard, and I know it's my mom. She's going to do something to me, I just know it. Eventually she went away, and I fell asleep. I sneak out of the house early so I don't have to face mom. She's not a drunk, or an alcoholic, or anything of that sort. Mom's just been like this since she found out that dad was cheating on her. That's why she's like this, she wants to make him leave her, so that's why she's been so mean to us, but now it's just me. The next few years, my dad starts to move out, and both of my parents get a divorce, and that's when she starts hitting me with belts, cutting me, and all of that stuff.

She started fully abusing me just after dad left when I was 7. Just 2 years after dad left, mom gets married to another man. Mom doesn't abuse me anymore, and I've been reading more and more about this person named, Moon Allen Kate Destor. She's now gone through 9 foster families. I don't even know how she hasn't run away from the foster home where she stays after the family leaves. My cuts, and all of my bruises, are starting to heal, finally, and my Step-dad has actually changed her. I just hope it stays that way. But the only thing that's bugging me now is school. I've been bullied since 2nd grade. I've been punched, kicked, beaten to where I can barely breath, and I hate it.

<<3 years later>>

Now it's been 3 years, the bullying stopped after 5th grade, and the last thing I read about Moon, is that now she's gone through 37 foster families. She's with some people that normally hate children that aren't their birth children. But for some reason they took in the girl. But, when I get into home room, I see 1 of the kids that bullied me for 3 years. Only thing is that he seems nice, just after the bell rings, a student runs into the room, and suddenly something erupts in me. I know who the girl is, and the first thing I say is:

"Hey look! It's the foster hater!" me and some other boys yell.

'What am I doing? Please, let me be my own person!' I plead in my head as Mrs. Angle yells at us.

"Leave her alone! She's done nothing wrong to any of you!" she yells.

Before I can even think about what to say next I blurt, "Just her being born was stupid!" I yell on accident, but I hide the smirk that was on my face.

That's how it all started, I barely talk to her, scared that I may say something horrible to Moon. I leave her alone, that is, until something terrible happens.

Dun, dun, dun! I think you guys can guess what he's talking about, but as of in the story, he can't control what he says to Moon. The reason being is, he's read about her his entire life, and he read it while all those horrible things happened to him. So, he's taking it all out on her. So, the next chapter will be in Moon's POV again. Then after the next chapter it's going to be Jake's again. That's what I'm planning anyway. Well, that's all I have time for now. I'm also sorry that I made this go by fast, but I promise the next chapter will be much longer. Alright then, thank you to everyone who is reading this.
