A young girl was hiding behind a table, her eyes focused on the floor. Some would say a person as young as her shouldn't spend her time in places such as 'The Shit Faced Tavern' and now she understood why - that was a dangerous place for a ten-year-old. Her old patchy dress and her short dark auburn hair stuck to her body due to the alcohol that spilt onto her as people ran out. She clutched a hammer in her hands, which she found inside her parents' bedroom.  Even though she didn't know how to fight, it did give her some sense of safety. As the girl leant against the wooden table, she forced her eyes shut.
