⚠️TW mentions of SA on a minor and description of vomiting⚠️

THE GROUP SAT IN A NEW ROOM, having practically destroyed the last one, all of them scattered around sofas and chairs as they made simple small talk.

Evelyn watched Angel closely, her skin and her hair reminded her of another girl back in The Red Room. She's left all of them behind. They didn't deserve the pain and suffering. The girl whom looked like Angel was named Ophelia, maybe a year or two older than Evelyn with curly black hair and caramel skin. The two raven haired girls could have been sisters, the only thing that would make you think otherwise were Ophelia's bright emerald green eyes, beautiful and sparkling just like the girl who they belonged to. Ophelia was lucky in one way to never have been placed under the mind control, but unlucky to have received the most harsh punishments out of her group. Natasha's group.

The brunettes thoughts of her red headed sister were suddenly prevented by some bothersome agents mocking the mutants through the large window. They made wing motions with their arms before turning to Evelyn herself, "ooooh, she's a state! Bet your pretty once your cleaned up darling, wanna come to the bathroom and show me? I'll clean you up if you want." He winked at her as Hank stood up to close the curtains.

Evelyn felt sick to her stomach. The men taunting her like that reminded her of being a child before the chip was implanted in her. The much older male agents looking at her underage body as she walked past them, watching her as she trained and as she slept, not even bothering to be discreet when they talked about the things they would have liked to do to her... what they had previously done to her...

She stood up from her seat, attracting the attention of Sean, Darwin and Alex as she walked over to the small waste bin near where the group was sitting. The three watched her as she crouched over the black plastic bucket and heaved up pure liquid vomit. Upon hearing the splashing and gagging, Raven jumped up and ran over to her to hold her hair back for her, feeling the grease that had traveled midway down her brown locks as she gathered it behind her neck. She rubbed small circles on her lower back, mumbling to her slightly, "it's okay, it's okay, get it all out... there you go."

The eighteen year olds eyes watered as the liquid burned at the lining of her throat, the skin on the inside feeling jagged and raw. She continued to dry heave when Darwin came over to give Raven a bit of help looking after her while the rest of the group watched, unsure of what to do. He attempted to place a caring hand in her shoulder, but his attempt was considered a failure when Evelyn flinched away violently upon their skin meeting, "no... please n-" she interrupted herself by dry heaving into the bucket. While she was okay with Alex offering her his hand to help her stand up, having the past memories brought up caused her to become repulsed with a man touching her.

Raven spoke up, not really knowing what else to do, "maybe we should get you cleaned up. There's a shower in the bathro-"

"No! No! No..." Evelyn interrupted her as she scooted away from the two, her back hitting the wall. She want going into the shower. Not after last time...

Angel felt the dislike she had for the girl fade away as she realised what the problem was, jumping up from the sofa and carefully walking closer to her, lowering herself down to match the other girls height until she rested in her knees in front of her, "Evelyn, look at me." She spoke gently before their eyes met, "how about I wet some tissue and just wipe some of the blood and dirt off of you. You don't need to go anywhere near the bathroom yet. How does that sound?"

Evelyn sensed the pity in her voice, it made her even more nauseated, but she slowly nodded her head and allowed the raven haired girl to do just as she said. Sean fetched a glass of water for her, but gave it to Angel to pass along once he got the gist of what may have happened to the girl.

While Raven, Hank, Alex and Darwin sat and watched the three in the kitchen- with Sean at a safe distance- Evelyn met Alex's bright blue eyes with her own. He realised that he was right to think she could be attractive, seeing her beautiful features properly now the dirt and blood had been removed. Sure, her jawline and eye were bruised and her hair was greasy and she was an absolute mess. but, she still had that thing about her.

The cleaning was interrupted when screams were heard outside of the window. The ones sat down rushed to see what the fuss was, allowing the memory of falling bodies crashing into the ground to become etched into the minds till the day they would die...
