Our Time In Another Universe.

Chapter 22 "It gets worse."

Months had passed by since it all began. Since the abuse of Alex and soon, the marriage of Caira and Gohan. Soon, the children of Alex and Lukas were born. Yet, now, it was getting somewhere.

Alex's Point of View.

I was only folding up Lukas' clothes and gathering the twins' into their little dressers. Over time, I eventually gave birth to LJ And Jenny, it was the greatest day of my life. It was short-lived when only a mere few days after we got home, it went back to the same old thing. I even had to make sure Lukas didn't do anything to hurt the kids. Once I was done with one chore, I began walking downstairs, but then I heard...

"YOU LITTLE PIECE OF SHIT!"

"WAAAAAH!!!!!"

I felt my eyes bulge out of my face and I darted downstairs to find the one thing I feared the most. Lukas was holding our six month old daughter in an iron grip! "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" I screamed at him, immediately running forward and taking Jenny away from him. "Are you insane?!"

"What?! That little bundle of crap puked all over my new shirt!" Lukas snarled, his blue eyes glinting hatefully at our daughter. Well, my daughter at this point.

"Lukas! She's a baby!" I told him.

A whine came to my ears, I looked to find a whimpering LJ. The fear of my poor innocent babies getting hurt grew when Lukas marched toward and kicked the playpen LJ was in. "Stop your whining!"

"LUKAS!" I shouted, placing down Jenny when Lukas rose his fist up. I immediately grabbed his arm yanking it back. "LEAVE HIM ALONE!" I pleaded, I couldn't let him hurt them! Hurting me was bad enough but, now he does this?!

*WHACK!!*

*SPLAT!!*

I screamed when I was harshly punched in the face and I fell into the wall, the feeling of bruising coming. Then I felt a hard kick to my stomach and I held it, silent beads of water escaping my eyes. "I've had enough of this shit! I can't even stand you three!" I heard him grab his jacket, sliding it on and walking out the door, slamming it. I glanced to find my babies, both LJ and Jenny were traumatized, it was obvious because of their crying. I slowly got up, holding my arms. I took a deep breath and my hands latched onto my hair. It was at this moment.

I've fucking had enough.

I had to get as much as I can before Lukas got back. Quickly, I rushed to the twins' room, getting as much baby clothes as I can before running into the kitchen and grabbing their food. While I gathered enough for me, I grabbed them both, running to the car and buckling them into their carseats. Hopping in the front, I put in the keys and took off.

I didn't even look back...

A month later...

I'm too fucking tired at this point to even focus. Now leaving Lukas was a good decision that I made but, because I didn't really have much, I had to stay in the cheapest apartment, it was shitty. At least I managed to get my kids away from that blonde bastard. I never saw him once. For now, I just yawned, leaning my head against the wall.

I gave a slight jump when I felt a hand get placed on my shoulder. "Alex? Are you alright?" I looked to find Clayre who must've been worried when she saw me. I couldn't handle it though, I had to be honest at some point.

"Honestly Clayre..." I turned around facing, the dark bags under my eyes being noticeable. "No, I'm not."

I felt her gentle hand touch the side of my face, her thumb rubbing under my eyes. "Alex, what is going on?"
