I have to say that my name has always stood out to people, after all how many girls do you know by the name of Rythm Blue? The story behind my name is a little retarded but oh well. See my father was a big Blue's fan and he loved the Rythm of the music. He played guitar and the Alto. Saxaphone. He even had his own band when he was younger. They called themselves, The Rythm Blue Band.

 When I was born my father was over joyed. He had been told his "count" was too low and that he might never have children and well my mother didn't give a damn. She was too busy flirtin' with her men at work and bringing them home when Daddy was not around. Some of these men were a lil'.....odd. One impeticular had an interest in me, I was only 5 years old.

  His name was Tony Rogers and he was a Trucker. He spent his days on the road and his nights with the whores, my mother included. Daddy was gone on a fishin' trip with his brother, Ti. I loved my Uncle Ti, he was a former Marine.  On that paticular day I had been out in the back yard playing on the tire swing Daddy and Uncle Ti had made me for my 4th birthday when Tony approached me. He was about 5'10 and was quiet tubby and he reeked of alcohol and cigerettes and half his teeth were gone... This was not good.

  "Hey there lil' lady. How yous doin?" He sounded drunk. I ignored him and continued to push myself on the swing. My new lil' white nike's were getting a light dusting from the summer ground. "Ey, I'm talkin' to you!" He said a little louder and grabbed my arm tightly, I cried out in pain as tears brimmed my blue eyes. His grip hurt me, after all I was only 5.

  He yanked me off the tire swing and behind the tree where he pushed me against it. My whole body trembled as he started to push up my little yellow sun dress that had Tweety bird on the side. He smiled when he saw I didn't fight back, i was too scared. He pushed my panties to the side and ran a thick digit along my sweetness. I tried to shove him away. Daddy always told me that if someone touched me on my private places I was suppose to scream, hit and kick. Do anything I could to get away and then tell Daddy and Daddy would take care of them. Daddy was my Hero. 

  Tony shoved me back and used one massive hand to pin both of my small ones above my head and slipped his knee between my legs that way he could still mess with me. He stroked me again and I squirmed. He smiled evily. "So the lil' one is already turngin into a slut, jus' like her mother.." He roughly shoved a finger inside me and i screamed. It hurt really bad and felt like he was tearing me. I didn't know what was going on but it hurt really bad. He snarled at me and growled; "Shut the hell up!" He shoved his fingers in harder and i continued to cry and whimper. It wouldn't stop burning.  He gave one last shove and pulled his finger out. It had little riverelts of blood and he ran his tongue up it and smiled. I saw fangs and yellow eyes. he wasn't human....

  He let me go and laughed as he walked away, I simply lay there in the shade of the tree and cried quietly. My sweetness hurt really bad but it was more of a dull ache now. I decided I would lay here till Daddy got home...It was Sunday..he should be home tonight I thought.  I was right.

   I heard his old truck's engine sputter as he pulled up to the front of the house. I heard Uncle Ti's voice first. He sounded more professional than Daddy. "Where is Rythm? She is usually out here waiting for you when you come home from fishing trips." "You got a point, Ti. Rythm! Rythm Blue where are you?" That was mine and daddy's joke..it was like Scooby Doo..

   I opened my mouth to answer but nothing came out. Tears still fell down my face.

"I'll go check the back yard, Sammy. You check the house, maybe Marilyn took her out." Uncle Ti says. I could hear his foot steps as he came out to the back. "Rythm, Baby Girl where are you?" I made a small whimper and Uncle Ti's senistive ears heard it and he ran over to me. My panties were soaked in blood and there was a lil' blood on my dress. My upper arm and wrists were brusided, Uncle Ti was furious and quickly picked me up.

"Sammy!!! I found her! She is bleeding!" Uncle Ti yelled. Daddy was faster than Speedy Gonzalas cause he was out there fast.  He looked at me and those usual soft blue eyes were cold, hard and lethal...He looked just like a vampire... "who did this Rythm..." His voice was one I dare not defy.

  "A man Mommy brought home...." I said in a little voice.

"What man and how long has Mommy been bringing him home?" He growled.

"Everytime you are gone..she brings different ones..but this one has been here for like...since...Febuary..." It was now July...

   Daddy was infuratied and so was Uncle Ti.

"MARILYN ORTEGA!!!!!" He roared as he charged into the house. Mommy was laying on the bed naked and asleep. Her body coated in a sheen sweat. Daddy yanked her up and snarled, " Bitch wake the hell up! What mother fucker did you bring into my fuckin house!! "

  She looked a lil' groggy and confused, "what are you talking about Sam?" Alcohol was strong on her breathe. Daddy backhanded her hard, This was the first time I had seen Daddy lay a hand on a woman. He never believed in hitting them...

  "Your going to leave this house now! I want you to get your shit out and go !" he yelled angerily and threw her to the floor. Needless to say Mommy left but that wasn't the last time I had heard from her.

   Daddy did his best to comfort me after that and So did Uncle Ti. Though...something told me that that man who touched me was killed...brutally. But Uncle Ti and Daddy never spoke of it.

   The ringing of the phone woke me from my flashback.
