It was a Saturday. Which meant there was no school to attend to, but there was still a lesson for her to attend. That still wasn't for awhile, as it had been pushed back a few hours than what the time was usually. Her voice lessons teacher had to push it back, due to some family situations that she had to deal with. Which was fine with Wendy for the most part. The only reason Wendy would be upset with the change in time, was due to the fact that she had to stay at home and wait to get out of the house.
Her father had the weekends off, which made weekends worse than the school days. Her father was a tall man at the height of six foot four, but also quite large. He could squish her if he so choose to. Wendy knew the temper the man held and she knew if she did anything to displease him, it'd come out as he had such a short fuse. Wendy obeyed her father at any cost these days, due to the fact her father has hit her in the past, and she doesn't want to see how much more violent he can get.
Watching the rain fall, from her window seat, she realized her mum was out at work, while John and Michael were out doing their own lessons they had for the day. That meant that Wendy was home alone with her father today. It was quite the damp day in London. The sky cloaked in the dark thick clouds, and the rain drops coming one after the other. Wendy would have to get her umbrella out today and possibly a light if it got too dark.
"Wendy!" Her father shouted out into their building. With a sigh she got up, her feet walking across the wooden floor beneath her, that had the odd squeaky floor boards. Turning the silver knob to her white door, she swung the door open and gone into the hall. Wendy finally found where her father was and she stood in front of him, one hand in the other, both in front of her. "Yes father?" She asked and had a careful eye on him.
"Could you make supper upon returning home from voice lessons?" He had asked and Wendy nodded, "I will father." She concluded and went back up to her room. She fond her raincoat and slipped it on. Today she had just been wearing a casual black dress that went down just passed her knees. It was a casual, but nice style, really something her mother had picked out, like a majority of her clothes. It wouldn't be something she'd pick for herself to wear, but it was better to obey than to not obey.
Putting on her shoes, she grabbed her umbrella and she walked out of the house. It was a decent travel there and she did her voice lessons. She was progressing each lesson more and more. Soon she would be ready to enter a competition, but that was still awhile off.
Wendy was now walking home. It was a little bit of a walk, but with her umbrella blocking out the rain she figured she'd be fine. Walking she could hear the rain fall down around her, and hit the tin on the roofs. She loved the sound of rain and it really put her at ease. She could hear foot steps behind her, but she ignored it. Thinking it was just someone else walking home.
She was about to turn the corner when two men came around the corner and looked at her with a smirk on their faces. "What a pretty young girl like you doing out on the streets alone?" The taller one asked, advancing on her. She took a few steps back, until she hit another body. She could feel the body behind her shake as a laugh erupted from his chest. Wendy's umbrella dropped as the man behind her had grabbed her wrists and Wendy struggled against him. "Let me go." She grumbled at them.
They managed to unbutton her raincoat and she was still struggling. "No use resisting darling, we all just want a little bit of fun." the tall one mused. Wendy ended up sacking the guy in front of her, and he doubled over in pain as she leaned over and bit the arm of the guy holding her. Once out of his grip she grabbed her umbrella and closed it beating up the guy that once held her and made sure his head hit the pole behind them and he fell to the ground unconscious.
Wendy watched as one guy tended to the other one knocked out, but the tall guy was still on a mission. She sprinted around the corner and her heart was beating heavy in her chest. By this point Wendy was soaked and her hand clutched tight to the umbrella as she ran. She turned into one of the alleys near by and while she was breathing heavily she paused.
When she heard footsteps behind her she was startled and she opened her umbrella. "Stay away from me!" She yelled out to the tall man yet again. The tall guy held something in his hand and it glinted from the houses lights near by. He cut through the umbrella which left Wendy petrified. The tall man made swift movements and pressed her up against the stone wall. Her skin was cold and wet and she was trembling by this point. The knife was held up near her throat and she was crying out by this point. "Just leave me alone!" She said pleading to the man.
"Any fast moves this time darling and you wont last the night." the man said, and Wendy couldn't help but cry. "Please just let me go," struggling out of his grip she could feel her coat slowly being peeled off of her shoulders, and her body would tremble more as the tears rolled down her cheek as she kept trying to struggle, but it was no use.
