Not being able to go down to that fence the rest of the year was a drag. The only thing I really looked forward to was seeing Butch's Spearow at my window.

when the time came for me to go home. I was a bit scared to be honest. What had they said to them; that I was playing with a boy from a public school, or worst. Ether way my punishment wasn't over. My mom came to pick me up in another fancy car. Not even introducing the new man in her life she told me to get in.

The car ride was a lot shorter than usual. She didn't speak to me at all till dinner later that week. "I am very disappointed in you for even looking at that boy. I bet he didn't even own a pair of slacks much less an approvable brand. I thought I taught you better than that"

I felt myself gripping my salad fork more tightly, with strange thoughts of throwing it at boyfriend across the table or better just stabbing her with it. I pushed the thoughts out of my head. She was still my mother, but I wasn't going to listen to her ranting. "I had plenty" I said as properly as my anger would let me, "may I be excused?"

"No, you may not" she said her eyes glaring in to mine. "This is Kenneth by the way. You will call him Mr. Brockmen and he will be carrying out the rest of your punishment." She then looked over at him and he nodded. Unknowingly, I begin to shake. He was a lot bigger than the others. He had a sharp face with shoulder length black hair pulled back in a ponytail. His large biceps are what frightened me most. The school didn't believe in corpleal punishment and my mother never really gave anything but lectures. He then sternly grabbed my arm and led me to my bedroom.

"I'm not going to hit you if that's what your thinking but you can't tell your mother. Do you understand?" All I could do was nod frighenly. "So what are we going to do for all this 'punishing time'?" He said but something in his voice sent chills down my spine. "Oh I almost forgot" he said. "Go to the mirror and close your eyes." Still a little scared of his size, I did as I was told. Next thing I know I feel cool beads along my neck. "open them" he said clasping something underneath my hair. I then see small dark pink pearls around my neck. "You like them?" he said running his finger underneath them. Something wasn't right about this guy. I begin to back up just to get some space between us. "You didn't answer me" he said deleting the space I made. Now grabbing me around the waist.

"You know your much prettier than your mother." He said kissing my neck. 'Just a little more' I thought backing up. Finally the pokeball was in my grasp.

"Hyper fang." I said as quickly as I could get it out. She then bit him hard on the ankle just to be kicked across the room seconds later. Kenneth then resumed. He lifted me up onto the now empty nightstand proceeding to biting my neck and exploring under my blouse. I bit my lip knowing if I yelled out my mom would just think it was him punishing me(if she cared to begain with); instead, I kept my eyes on Rattata. 'come on wake up ' I thought struggling against him. She was starting to come to but than began to glow. The next thing I knew a Raticate was biting Kenneth repeatively; He was at now on his back holding his shin hollering obsanities.

I was still shaking violently but I managed to climb out my window, after returning my new Raticate. One thing the punishments of the school did for me was improve my speed; I ran down to the pond, I saw pulling our way in. I would wait here until they went to sleep, then I'll go back and get my things. My mother wouldn't believe me if I told her and I wasn't going to sleep in that house. Not when he could do whatever he pleased with me. I released Raticate from her pokeball. "Sorry, I haven't thanked you yet but I had to get out of there. You really did good back there you know." I paused remembering the pearls around my neck , they were pretty; I actually did like them, but they were from him. Closing my eyes I ripped them off. Little pink balls flew into the clear pond putting ripples thought the moonlight reflection. I looked back down at my hand four pink balls remained. Angrily I threw the remains in the pond and curled up and cried for an hour or so, even though it seemed like much more.

Finnally all the lights were out in the house. I began to work my way back; once there I grabbed my book bag in the foyer and headed to my bedroom. Digging though my drawers, I found the wranglers; I quickly slipped out of the skirt and tights. 'Please fit' I thought to myself trying vainly to button them. After admitting that they wouldn't fit, I dug for the next most confrontable pair and slid them on. Then went to my closet and got a green T-shirt and a blue hoodie that had some designer name I cared nothing about. The tennis shoes Daddy Jackson gave me we long gone and didn't fit at all. I got the next best thing which were some flats that where almost like tennis shoes. I glanced at the mirror, long frizzy hair was hardly a style for a runaway. I then took my hair brush and fixed two thick braids going strait down my back. Grabbing the artist hat Jackson gave me, I left my room back to the foyer. There I dug in the closet for my mothers purse. After finding her wallet, I grabbed her least used credit card and all the cash, which amounted to about $120, and left.

Everyday after summer began I waited for the mail to make sure I was the first to get it, and everyday I was disappointed to find that there was no letter from Cassidy. I was beginning to think that the brainwashing she received daily from those broads and her parents too more than likely had finally taken it's toll, but one night in about the third week I heard tapping on my window. I pulled the curtain back nervously; there she was. After throwing on some clothes, I ran outside as quietly as I could as not to wake my father who was hangover, on our mouth eaten couch. The second I got outside two tiny arms were thrown around my waist. She was shaking a bit but not because it was cold; It was a warm summer night. All I could do was return the hug. It was the first time we had any real physical contact; Once we had held hands through the fence briefly before she had to leave. "What did they do to you?" I asked looking back at her. She looked completely different, thinner; she looked as if she could've actually came from my side of the fence.

"It doesn't matter now; I'm not going back there or to the school. I don't know where I'm going I just know I can't go back. I was wondering if you wanted to come with me.?" I was a little taken back by this but nodded.

"Let me go grab some things." I said heading back in. I got to my room and grabbed a set of clothes and my base ball cap; I was about to leave when I saw my dad's cigarettes sitting on the coffee table. Not thinking I grabbed the whole carton and dumped all but three packs in my back pack, grabbed one of the lighters from the table, and I don't know why but I grabbed the extra bottle of whisky that he didn't need. I zipped up my backpack, quickly double checking everything. Beaky was in his pokeball, which was in the pocket of my jeans: clothes, underwear, socks, shoes? I then noticed I'd forgotten to put shoes on; how could I be so stupid. Finally ready, I met her outside. "Alright what happened." I said worriedly. What had happened to make her so rash? I soon regretted this, as tears formed in her lavender eyes.

"My mom's new boyfriend...He...uh..tried to do things. Bad things. He would have done more if it hadn't been for Raticate. My mom won't care and I couldn't stay there and let him have his way with me."

I wasn't sure what to say. To be honest I wanted to go back to where ever and smash his face in, but I knew she wouldn't go for it and I was no match for a grown man. "You look tired I know an abandoned tree house around here where we can sleep and we'll head out to where ever tomorrow." she only nodded. I had forgotten all the questions I had planed to ask and thought of entire new ones. Like how long she had been on the run; how she got here. When her Rattata evolved. We finally got to the old tree house I helped her up and followed behind her. Before I can even ask her if she was alright, she had fallen asleep. Unable to go to sleep, I pulled out a pack of cigarettes. My dad said they calm his nerves so maybe they would do the same for me. Putting the cigarette in my mouth, I dug for the lighter. It was hard to get it lit, but once I did, I felt my nerves discenagrate with the filter. I then curled up across from Cassidy; Using my backpack as a pillow, I feel asleep.
