MADI'S POV

-

I groan and rub the back of my head. I feel my hair all messed up and I brush it out with my fingers. I look up to the person in front of the door but it's too bright to make out a face. I take a deep breath in and try to stand on my feet but I wobble and fall back to the ground. Before I fell back onto the ground, someone caught me in their arms. "Who are you?" I ask.

They softly put me on the ground and I lay down flatly on the cold black tiles. I put my head onto my elbow as a pillow and sighed. My body aches. Someone kicks me in the stomach and my eyes widen. I look back to see there are five people around me but I still can't make out their faces.

Someone kicks me in the stomach again and then someone kicks my back. I cough and cough until I finally cough out blood. "What are you.." I manage to get out.

They grab my wrist and they exchange looks to each other and some nod. Two people ran out and three stayed in the room. I froze and look up at them in horror. They were looking at my birth mark. Do they know something? I thought only Penelope knew about the birth mark.

Someone kicke me in the face and I feel blood pouring out my nose. I scream and they started punching everywhere on my body, even if it meant my breasts.

After what seems forever, they stopped. They all looked at each other and walk out the door and slam it shut.

I let out a painful noise and try to sit up. I lift up my dress to see there's already purple bruises forming around my stomach. I look down at my arm to see green and brown bruises. I fall back onto my back and my head slams onto the cold tiles. Why did they catch me when I fell if they were just going to hurt me?

How can I do this. What if someone else I knew was getting hurt like this? I wouldn't be able to fight. I would just have to watch and feel helpless. I let out a painful breath. I crawled away from the door, dragging my body on the ground. I have to get out of here. I reach up and try all the door handles but they were all locked. There were four doors around me on each wall. That voice that called me gorgeous.. sounds so familiar.

I feel so weak. I can't get up. I can't fight back. I feel my eyes flash white but I shut them tight and open them again. I look down at my wrist to see my white birth mark glowing white in the dark. I shake and I feel tears slide down my cheek as my body was in pain. I slide down against the wall.

This feeling.

I will get rid of it.

I won't be useless any longer.

I will get stronger.

I try to keep my eyes open. I raise my fist to my face and look at my birth mark while it glows even brighter by the second. Alema.. where are you? Dylan.. Alema.. Penelope.. and especially my father.

I need you.

My eyes close slowly.

ALEMA'S POV
I wake up screaming. I look at my arm, it's purple and green with bruises, I try to get up but a sharp pain hits my stomach I wince as a lift up my shirt to check it out "what the..." I'm full of bruises I get up and look into the mirror tilting my head slightly to the side of my face where there's this huge purple and red bruise "what the fuck!!!" I run my finger over it

My mark is glowing "I can't go home like this my dad will freak" I think to myself. I unlock the bathroom door and find Jason fast asleep on the wall I squat and slap his face lightly a couple of times he opens one eye slowly but when he sees me his eyes widens, he gasps "did I do that to you?!" I squint my eyes at him "no you did not you dumbass" he was clearly drunk but I'm pretty sure he remembers the fight "who did that to you?!? You're purple we gotta get you to a hospital" I shake my head "take me home with you so I can shower okay? But then you have to drive me to school" I pull him to his feet "are you crazy we have to go to a hospital" I rub my forehead "just shut up and do it"
