Absol was crying on her bed, emotions pounding in her mind as she sobbed. She sharpened her claws and sliced at her arms savagely, wanting the pain to take her away, to lead her to a peaceful place. "Dear God, help me!" she sobbed before her door is slammed open, her father walking in drunk. He started to yell at her before slamming her against the wall, Absol crying hysterically as she was forced to endure the punishment for being born. 'Why?' she thought as she started to lose consciousness, unable to keep her eyes open as she fell to the floor, blood pooling around her as, for the first time in her life, smiled.
