Punching bags

Age: 9

Alarm ringing

"WAKE UP RAT I DONT WANNA LISTEN TO YOUR ALARM ALL DAY." A manly voice yells arrogantly from down stairs.

I grumble and slap the button on the top of my alarm and make my bed.

Annie goes downstairs and each wooden stair creaks under her.

"8 laps. You woke up late." The same manly voice says.

"But it was only 5 mi-" Annie began

"Wanna make it 10?"

Sigh.

I walk out the back door to the training station, and walk to the track field. I get in my running stance and I blow through the tracks.

Lap 1

Lap 2

Lap 3

Lap 4

Lap 5

Lap 6

Lap 7

Lap 8.

Annie pants heavily.

"I'm gonna faint.." Annie says to herself.

She begins to walk to the front door and as she reaches for the handle...thud

[Time Skip]

I wake up in what I instantly though was my bed to find out it's not, it's a hospital bed. My dad could care for my wounds easily but he sends me of to the ER because he's to lazy to do it himself.

"Ok Ms.Leonhardt, now that you've woken i think your okay to go." The doctor, Ms.Reagan says. I'm a usual to her.

"Thanks." I say while putting on my sandals and grabbing my necklace. The necklace that once belonged to my mom. Before she passed and left me to my horrible father.

The necklace is a silver heart with a red ruby inside.

[Time skip]

As soon as I get out of the hospital, I don't go to home. Anywhere but home. I just kept running and running and I feel tears form in my eyes.

BANG... THUD

"Oh what the hel-" I start

"I'm so sorry. I wasn't looking." A girl my age with long black hair says while picking up scattered groceries and stuffing them back into the bag.

"No no it's okay, it was my fault too." I say while starting to pick up the groceries.

I hold out my hand to her.

"I- im sorry I wasn't looking please don't hurt me.." she says while shaking.

"Wha-" I say confused

"OY BRAT WE DONT HAVE ALL DAY." A manly voice calls out. I recognize the man. He works for my father. She's been kidnapped by my fathers gang.

I immediately drop to the floor and whisper into her ear.

"I'm not trying to hurt you. I swear. My dad, he owns a gang. You, were his victim but come with me. They have to listen to me since I'm their bosses daughter. So come with me" I whisper while grabbing her hand.

"OY ASSHOLES! LEAVE HER ALONE, SHES WITH ME NOW SHE ISNT YOUR SERVANT." I yell to them.

I grab the girls wrist tighter and drag her into a run.

They start chasing us and all I can do is... run.
