The Ransom Of Daisy: A Short Story

Turning on the tv she was surprised to see on the news that an avenged murderer was on the loose. The lady on the news said it's best if people secure all windows and doors as a safety hazard. With the dog by her side, the young girl locked the front and back doors. She went from window to window and locked each of them one by one. She kept reassuring herself that she would be fine with her trusty dog and that her parents would be home shortly anyways. So Lily had a pleasant, peaceful evening, and finally decided around eleven o'clock that it was time for her to go to bed.

"Look, I just want you to shut up and let me focus on the situation we are currently having," Katie mumbles as she approaches the impact doors that leads to a weird-looking

She sat in the chair, taking her hands through her hair, stressed about her new book coming but has had no desire to continue. She looks at the last chapter written days ago thinking of ways to continue the story. She starts writing but continually marks out and starts again. She groans in frustration, laying her head down on the cool glass table. While being in her own world, she hears a quiet tapping coming from her door, assuming it’s the maid she politely tells them that she’s good. The tapping continues and she gets up heading towards the door; opening the door she sees no one, looking leaving the room and waking down the hallway looking around seeing nothing. As she heads back into the room, she sees the papers for her new book all spread out on the table. Knowing someone wasn’t in her room at the time, she makes herself think it’s the nearby draft from the window beside

“Trust me, Tessara, I'm not an enemy you want. Stay the hell away from Logan,” she hissed through grinding teeth.

He slapped her across the face and she immediately felt blood trickling down her chin as she fell against the desk and then slid to the floor.

I leaned over Susie’s shoulder to see that the letter was from the airport Ma and Pa had used. I slowly read it and my heart felt as if it has just ripped into a million pieces. It said, I am very sorry to report to you that Mr. and Mrs. Keller have been killed in a plane crash. I didn't know what to say or do! Why did this have to happen to our family? How are we going to be able to live with only one job to support all three of us? We had no money, no family and a very small house! That night we all took it into realization that we all were going to have to step up our game and work as hard as we can. As I was falling asleep in bed I thought to myself that we were going to need to find food somehow even if it was a

When they got to the house, the windows had boarded up with wood, the inside and the outside of the house smelled damp and moldy, the ceiling floated, no water came out of the faucet, and there was a puddle of dark brown water. The next day, her mom was late for work. When Georgina’s mom and Toby got in the car, she started crying. She was crying because she had just lost her job at the Laundromat.the next day. When Georgina and Toby had came to check on Willie, there was a man sitting with Willie. The man's name was Mookie. Mookie is homeless and feels that Willie takes care of him. A couple of days later, Georgina's mom finds a job. She was working at a bakery. When Carmella comes home, she notices that Wille is missing. Carmella saw Toby and Georgina and asked if they can help find Willie. Georgina and Toby suggested to Carmella that she should put up posters for her missing dog. When Georgina asked if the amount could be $500, Carmella said she couldn’t afford that. The reward for finding the dog would be $50. When Georgina brought Willie food, he was missing. Georgina freaked out, but Willie broke the rope and followed Mookie to the mall. Carmella told Georgina that she will ask her sister for money. Georgina’s Mom’s car broke down by the bike tracks. Carmella finds the collar that Georgina had threw into the bushes. Georgina thinks it's time to give Willie back so she went to Carmella's house and gave her dog back. Carmella forgives her and Georgina walks back to the car without the

“What has gotten into you!” She blurted out, “They most definitely know that you killed Amaranth

“No, get away from me! You’re crazy why did you hurt me?!” She yelled at him as tears kept falling from her cheeks.

She yanked the keys out of the ignition. It’s was just dark as she stumbled for the door grasping for breath. Her hands were shaking so bad, she had to two fist the key to get it into the lock. She burst into a fresh wave of sobs as she bursted into the door. She close the door and sank to the sobbing. She was still just the foolish little girl at ran around making the prefect prom. She just turned it into the prefect sale.

Genevieve nearly jumped out of her seat. “You want to use me as your weapon?I have no power what so ever!”

Patty awoke to the sound of her alarm clocking going off. She reached her arm out from under the covers and hit the snooze button. For a brief moment, in between sleep and waking. For a moment she almost forgotten that her father was murdered, that she would never be able t see him, touch him or hear his laugh again. All her troubles seemed so far away, like the where some part of a bad dream that her mind was forcing her to remember. Only it wasn’t one, it was her life now, the more she stirred under the sheets the more it sunk in. She had to live with the fact that her father was murdered, and he was never coming back. Just because he was gone didn’t mean she couldn’t do everything within her power to bring the men responsible to justice. She wiggled her way out from under the sheets, her hair a matted mess. She blew at a few strands of hair that fell in her face, they danced slowly within her breath before falling back to her face. She rolled her eyes, it was to early in the morning to worry about her hair.

She opened that door and it was almost black except the dim light at the end of the hall. She started to walk down the hall, leaning herself against the wall. She made it to Sandy’s room and it was really cold, she could feel someone else in the room besides Sandy. She walk to the bedside table and turned on the lamp, Sandy was blue with cold and she saw no one else but her and Sandy, she talked to her about a dream she had about her parents who had died when she was young, then they went back to Kit’s room and did not fall asleep till the break of dawn.

“I need to go. These women are trying to kill me,” Jasmine says between sobs.

Hours later after eating, getting ready and finding her skates she said her goodbyes and left the house. Ideally, Christina would just wait for Cindy to get in the car but when she was not coming out she grew suspicious. Judging by how long it was taking her, she knew something was not right so she decided to go to the door. Knocking on the door multiple times with no answer, a huge knot formed in her stomach when she noticed the door was open. Large amounts of fear incased her body as she crept into the house. Misery had taken control of her
