Worlds Apart

Patton

We got put in three different cells. I'm in a cell with Emile, Roman and Logan are in a cell, and Remy is in his own. We have a cell across from Logan and Roman, and Remy is in the cell next to us.

"What are we going to do," I ask the group. I lean against the bars.

"No idea," Roman answered honestly, leaning back onto one of the walls.

"For now we have to wait," Remy says. "We have two people out there. They will figure something out."

Emile looks at the ground, "But how long will it take them to get to us? What if...What if they do something and we don't make it?"

I grab Emile's hand, "Hey, they will save us. We're friends and they won't let us die. Especially not here and not by them."

Emile nods and starts tearing up, I hug him and he leans into me, starting to cry.

Roman looks at us and goes to say something but Remus and Janus walk to our cells.

Remus smiles and looks around, "Well, look at you. We already have someone crying and we haven't even started."

Janus chuckles, "How about we start having some fun? After all this is why we kept them alive."

Remus nods and looks around, "I've already tortured you," he said as he looked at Remy, then he looked at Emile, "Too emotional," looks at me, "Eh," He looks at Logan, "Maybe," he then looks at Roman. He starts to smile, "Perfect."

I watch as two guards unlock their cell and grab Roman, I yell and beg for them to leave him alone. I start to cry as I watch them take Roman away from us. Away from me.

It's been who knows how long since they took Roman away to torture him. I want to think positive but I can't. I can only focus on Roman screaming. Me and Emile can't stop crying.

Remy and Logan have been trying to comfort us but they can only do so much. I hear footsteps and freeze. Janus is dragging Roman, who is covered in blood and knocked out. He probably passed out from the pain. I start crying more. Breaking down and sobbing.

Janus throws Roman onto the floor next to Logan who immediately rushes to catch him. "What did you do?!" Logan yelled.

Janus chuckles, "Remus did all of this. I didn't touch him at all." He then left.

The only noises being me and Emile sobbing. Remy doesn't say anything and Logan holds Roman close, I can tell he wants to cry but he won't.

It's been a while longer and the guards gave us some nasty looking soup and one slice of bread. We eat in slicence and I keep looking at Roman. Logan cleaned Roman, so he isn't bloody, at least as much as he was. He still hasn't woken up though and that worries me.

Emile sets a hand on my shoulder gently, "He'll be okay. Once he wakes up he will be bouncing right back up."

I nod and lean on him as he hugs me. Roman's screams haunting my mind.
