Happy Halloween - Mother and Father

A Story by Dave
"

Three young boys who have been ill treated get their revenge.

"
Happy Halloween - Mother and Father - Section One
     In the darkened room they say silently.  Their parents had told them to be quiet and they knew from experience that it was best not to disobey.  So many times they had failed to listen to their parents often harsh demands and consequently drew the wrath of the two of them.  There was no hope that one would be less cruel than the other, they were equal in the punishments they would dole out so the boys came to accept their fate.

     Three little boys, cute as can be, all the neighbors said so.  Always neatly dressed, they couldn't be otherwise.  They were well behaved in school, heaven forbid if they weren't and their parents found out.  Their classmates loved them too, but unfortunately the boys were not permitted to have friends over to their house, nor were they allowed to visit any homes of their school friends.  Fortunately, despite the differences in their ages, the three of them got along very well with each other.

     Adam, the oldest, was 13 with bright shiny red hair and blue eyes.  Sam was 10 years old with dark brown hair and eyes.  Bobby, the youngest was 7 with brown hair like Sam, but unlike Sam he had blue eyes.  The three of them had a keen interest in history.  All of them seemed to be especially interested in the wide range of tortures and means of execution throughout history.  Considering their parents unabashed cruelty to the boys, they weren't surprised at the boys interest.

This is a great opening. I won't be commenting too much becuz my internet has been down all morning, just came up again & I don't know how long it will last! I love the attitude you have, telling a simple story but there's a wickedness to the way you explain things, which builds suspense & curiosity. I like the way you show us the way this family interacts, but as for introducing us to the boys, to me eye & hair color is pretty forgettable. I would rather see traits that stand out, making each kid very different & unique. (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

All right, this is good...is there more? Where are sections two--and beyond? I would like to read more of this; my interest has been piqued.

You've set the scene, the background of cruelty by the parents, and the keen interest in torture and execution that these three young children have embraced. Looking forward to part 2.
