Full summary

16 year old Alice Brandon can see the future. One day her parents decide enough is enough and sent her to an insane asylum. She is abused on a daily basis. Will she be able to make it out alive? Or will getting out be more fatal than being inside?!?!

A/N So this is a story I have been thinking about for ages! This was actually the first fanfic idea I thought of! So its kinda short but anyway Please review!! So here it is…

The light streaming in through the pale pink curtains woke me up. Yawing I stretched out, my stiff bones cracking a little. The smell of pancakes and syrup wafted up the stairs. I sniffed the air breathing in the sweet smell.

"Mary, breakfast is ready. Time to get up!" my mum shouted up the stairs.

I scrambled out of bed and down to the kitchen. My mum was at the table, with her cooking apron still on. She looked up and saw me looking. She smiled slightly and turned away. I felt my face fall. Last week was clearly still on her mind.

Last week I had a vision that my dad would fall down the stairs. My parents scoffed, thinking this was a plea for attention. They weren't laughing when he did fall. I got locked in the cellar for 5 days. My parents are very religious so they're horrified to learn that I can 'see the future'. They believe I'm possessed by the devil.

I sat on the stool and pulled my pancakes towards me. They were still warm, as I ate them. I could see my mum giving me secretive glances from time to time. I sighed and went back upstairs to get ready.

Flinging open my wardrobe I scanned the racks that were jam packed full of clothes on clothes hangers. I ran my fingers across the clothes stopping when I felt my silk Gucci blouse. It was black silk and went so well with my satin heels. I pulled out my deep blue skinny jeans with my satin black heels. I accessorised it with a black hair band with a little bow and some black beads around my wrist. I put my heels on that added 4 inches to my petite 4ft 10 height. I got out my make up bag and put on my usual which consisted of black mascara, black eye liner and shiny red lip gloss. Smiling at my reflection I went back down stairs. There was no one around. Hmm weird.

"Mum?" I called out, my voice echoing eerily in the empty house. Movement outside the window caught my attention. My mum was outside with a man I had never seen before. He had scruffy clothes on that were ripped in several places. His long dirty blonde hair pulled back into a pony tail. He began walking away to his car and pulled out of our drive way. My mum looked after him and then started to walk towards the house. I ran to the toilet to wait on her, so she thinks I wasn't eaves dropping. That is strictly forbidden. As she entered I walked out the toilet. She jumped startled as I walked in.

"You okay?"

"Yeah" she mumbles going slightly pink. Liar. I don't press her for information.

"Mum I'm going into town okay, do you need anything while I'm in?" I ask her as I grab my black Prada tote. She shakes her head. I walk towards the garage and get my baby. My Porsche 911 turbo in yellow. Its so beautiful and fast! My dad got me this for my birthday when I turned 15. I couldn't drive it but I got my lessons early so when I turned 16 I could drive it. I had only been driving it for 3 months. I get into my car and drive off to the town.

*****

8 Hours later.

It was half six, I had been shopping for 7 and a half hours! 7 and a half hours of total bliss. Driving home I put my CD player on. A familiar tune blasted out and I sang along with it, my voice an octave higher.

Tell me where our time wentAnd if it was time well spentJust don't let me fall asleepFeeling empty againCause I fear I might breakAnd I fear I cant take itSome night I'll lie awakeFeeling emptyI can feel the pressureits getting closer nowWe're better off without youI can feel the pressureits getting closer nowWe're better off without youNow that I'm losing hopeAnd there's nothing else to showFor all of the days that were spentcarrying away from hopeSomething's I'll never knowAnd I had to let them goI'm sitting all aloneFeeling emptyI can feel the pressureits getting closer nowWe're better off without youI can feel the pressureits getting closer nowWe're better off without youWithout youSomething's I'll never knowAnd I had to let them goSomething's I'll never knowAnd I had to let them goBut I'm sitting all aloneFeeling emptyI can feel the pressureits getting closer nowWe're better off without youFeel the pressureits getting closer nowYou're better off without me.

I arrived at my house and parked besides my dads car. Bounding into the house I dump my bags of shopping onto the sofa. I hugged my dad and kissed my mums cheek. We sat down to watch TV when I was pulled into a vision.

My father was cleaning the dishes whistling tunelessly to himself. He put a glass into the water and suddenly yelped. There was someone at the window. He had on a black ski mask that had holes for the eyes. He disappeared as my dad peered at him. The back door suddenly flew open and the man appeared holding a gun. My mum started screaming as he aimed at my dad. Eyes wide open, my dad put his hands up in the air in surrender. BANG! BANG! My dad crumpled to the floor, his eyes wide open and blank. He turned to my mum and me. BANG! My mum hit the floor, her then turned to me…

"MARY!" I was pulled back to reality as my mum shouted on me. Fear coursed through me as I realised this vision was going to happen to night. I jumped up tears pouring down my face. We were going to be murdered tonight, but I don't know when.

"Mary what's wrong" my mother cried. My dads forehead crumpled.

"Dad, please listen to me. Someone is going to come through that door and shoot us dead" I sobbed now hysterical. His face slowly began to turn red to purple.

"LIAR" he screamed and he grabbed my arm and began to drag me towards the cellar. No, no ,NO! He has to believe me! Tears cascaded uncontrollably down my face. He pulled my down the stairs that led to the basement my mum in tow, keys jangling from her hand. She pushed the key in the door and opened it. My dad got ready to fling me inside when there was a sudden bang, as someone forced the back door open…

A/N So there it is! Please review and tell me what you think!!!
