"Ziggy, come on over here, here kitty kitty" I say. Calling for my beloved tabby. He was always there for me after I'd been hit by mum and dad. But where is he? I glance out of my window and witness a brown blob jump down from a fence and into the street. "There you are" I say to myself.

Taking the stairs 2 at a time, I reach the front door. When I see him he's lying in the hot sun. "Ziggy" I call, he looks back at me and then runs into the road. "Hey it's not safe" I yell at him. He stops in the middle and looks back at me. the hum of a car engine grows increasingly closer, the cars going very very fast. "Ziggy!" I scream at him, but he just looks at me with that innocent look that only a animal can pull off.

Then from around the corner, a large white car reveals itself. The little cat had no chance, I watch, stuck to the ground by fear and horror, as my cat, my only form of comfort, the only thing that showed remotely any emotion that wasn't hatred towards me, gets run over by a car. Even from this distance I can see the life drain out of it's bloodied body. A sob starts in my throat and builds into a scream. The driver, a blond, muscular male looks at me as the scream rips from my throat. Then he smiles at me and winks.

With tears streaking down my face I sprint into the middle of the road and begin running after the car. But it's so fast. and I'm so slow. I don't want to look at Ziggy. I don't want to go back home at all. If Ziggy's dead then I have no reason to stay in this hell hole. I slowly get angrier and angrier, to the point where I'm shaking with rage. Everyone's the same. They don't care about me. They won't risk their lives for me. as I watch another tear fall to the ground, I slowly fade in and out of conciseness. Then, falling to the ground with a thud, everything goes a murky, restless black.
