Excerpt 1
Down by the arches, underneath the flyover I handed out sandwiches.
“Here you are, here you go,” I repeated to bundles of blankets.
“Thanks,” muffled replies responded.
The noise of traffic from above didn’t matter to those sleeping
rough. As I held my hand out with another, ‘Here you go,’ an arm
shot out and a hand locked around my wrist. I squealed and tried to
pull back but the grip was firm. A shadowy figure rose in front of
me.
“Hello little girl,” said a voice as I tried to wrench my arm
back again. He was wearing a tatty black woollen coat with sleeves
that were a too short revealing grimy hands. His hair was thick and
matted, sticking up like a perm gone wrong. His beard was also matted
and his wild eyes told me he was on something. I gasped, my heart
racing, my mouth suddenly dry.
“I eat little girls,” he said stepping out of the darkness as I
stepped backwards.
“Let go, please let go,” I whimpered, knowing he wasn’t going
to.
“Come with me, little precious.” He pulled me to the black
shadows of an old building.
“No, please. Stop! Let go! Let go!” My pleading fell on deaf
ears.
Out of the darkness came a voice. “Let her go.”
Pivoting round, my captor growled, “Says who?”
“Let her go,” the voice said again.
There was a movement, and another voice joined him. “Leave her
alone, we said.”
“Oh yeah, two of you now. Wanna take me on, do you?” The man’s
eyes lit up. “I’m up for a good fight.”
Looking round wildly, I couldn’t see anything. I was so terrified,
I sobbed
