Harmony was laying on the bed twisting everywhich way.Her face was
a sickly pale color except her cheeks which were bright red due to
her fever.She was also mumbling in her sleep.Though most of what
she was saying could not be heard or understood there was a few
things that could be heard."No..Sorry..Again."was what could be
heard.Within Harmony's Dream"Melinda where is the filth
at."A man shouted not at all sounding happy."I don't know,Matthew.I
haven't seen it all day."said another cruel voice this one sounding
like a young woman.You then hear footsteps walking towards what
seems to be a broom closet.Within the broom closet laid a young
girl who at most looked about 2 years of age.In reality she was
actually almost 5 years of age.The young girl head snapped up at
the footsteps.The odd thing about this young girl was that her eyes
were mismatched.One was a light blue and the other one was a pale
green. Sadly you could not see her green eye due to the fact that
it was swollen.Her door flew open and in the doorway stood a
Matthew.Matthew was a well built man with cold beedy eyes.Behind
him stood Melinda.Melinda was what a sterotypical house wife would
look like.The only difference was the discontented look on her
face.Matthew grab the little girl by her hair and pulled her
outside of 'room'."You little piece of filth!You lost me my
job!"Matthew screamed at the young child."I..I..I'm s..sorry,sir."
the young girl said stuttering."Sorry?!You think sorry is going to
get me my job back!?"he yelled at her."Go stand along the wall and
don't make a sound."he growled at the little girl.She quickly did
as she was told.He took off his belt and starting walking towards
the little girl.Once he got to her he turned her around."Put your
hands on the wall."Mathew once again growled at the child.The child
gently rested her hands along the wall and closed her eye that
wasn't swollen shut.She braced herself for the pain she knew was
coming.That was when the first hit happened.Afterwards she started
counting them in her mind.'1...2...3...5...8...uh what comes after
8.'She lost count but she did know that it hurt,to her though this
was normal.Her vision started to waver after so many before a
particularly nasty hit knocked her out.The next time the child woke
she was on what she thought was a bed and smelt antiseptic in the
air. She glanced around with one eye and saw that her stuff
animal,Shi, was sitting next to her head.She reached up with one
arm and pulled him to her chest."So you are awake little one?" said
an unknown voice from her right.She imeddiately jumped before
turning to her right.There sat a man with the same built as her
father,but his eyes were different.Where her fathers was small and
beedy this man's eyes were wide and expressive.The child felt her
eyes widen at the sight of him."Shh child its okay.You will not be
hurt here."The man said in a calming voice."Tell me little one do
you know who I am?"The man question.The young child nodded her head
before answering."Y..You are m..m..my new master."This statement
made the older gentleman suck in a sharp breath.The child's eye
widen further thinking that she had said the wrong thing.She curled
in on herself to make herself a smaller target.The man just
sighed."No sweetie, I'm your Uncle Jacob.I'm also a king as well
and I was wondering if you wanted to live with my wife,children and
myself.We have a small boy around your age."the man couldn't
understand how his brother could have done this to a small
child.The said child went stock still.'This man is asking me to
live...with him?What is the cat..no cash...no catch..that right
catch.Maybe I can ask him.He seems really nice after all, but then
again everyone could seem nice but be the exact oppisite.The child
glanced up at him and then back down at her stuffed animal.The man
smiled softly almost as if he knew what was wrong."How about this
little one,you can stay and get well and then once that period is
over you can give me an answer,hmm?"Jacob said to the young girl
who thought it over.There didn't seem to be any loop holes so she
nodded her head at the man."Okay now then what is your name little
one?"Jacob asked her."M..M..my name is Filth,sir."the child
answered as if it was the most common thing in the world."Why
that's not a very nice name..would you like for me to give you a
better one.?" he asked her.The child look at him in suspicion
before nodding her head."Hmm..How about Rose?"Jacob question to see
if she liked that name.The girl made a face before quickly hiding
it."Hehe,not Rose then huh.How about Melody?"He said throwing
another suggetion out.The child like this one better then the last
but it still just didn't seem right."Hmm,not that one either.Then
how about Harmony?"he said as a final suggestion.The child
frozed.Harmony sounded so right in her
mind."H..H..Harmony,Harmony." The child repeated a small smile
coming to her face."Hehe.Looks like Harmony it is.Now then why
don't you go ahead and go back to sleep.Tomorrow I can intruduce
you to everyone okay."Jacob said with a small smile.Harmony nodded
her head and laid back down.Within an instant she was
asleep.Outside of Harmony's dreamHarmony eyes opened a
little bit to see Benny outside the door before they shut
again.
