The Hybrid's Oracle

Nightmare

  It was late, she laid down to sleep, exhaustion was very evident on her face. For the first time ever since her perfectly proper life had gone downhill, she took a hot bath soothing all the tensed muscles, she had a hot meal consisting of spaghetti and meatballs but couldn't eat much because of her constant malnutrition, despite how much she wanted to devour the food fearing it would be her last, she could only eat the small portion that her stomach could contain, I guess she wasn't used to eating so much food.

  Irrespective of the sudden changes in her body, she still needed to work on her confidence, strength and stamina. With a profound new mindset, she was ready to be a changed person and not give anyone the chance to bully her.

  Earlier that day, she had moved to a more spacious room and made herself at home in the dilapidated house, she didn't care about what her father would do to her, she was ready to tackle him head on. As her head hit the freshly made bed and soft pillows... She drifted off to sleep and is soon sucked into a nightmare or maybe not.

  "Bitch! Where is my food? How long will it take a slut like you to prepare dinner"  She tried to sit up but that was all she heard before a punch landed on her face making her pass out.

  When she opened her eyes, she was in a cold cage. Her hands tied together with a thick rope. Her head was pounding, her vision was blurred and her mind was unclear. She didn’t know where she was or why she was in a cold dark room. She just felt weak, she could barely sit up. She tried to lift herself up from the floor of the cold cage and get out through the entrance, but she was too weak…, she struggled to break free but to no avail. Then she heard a maniacal laugh coming from her bastard of a father, just seeing the smile on him face was making her furious.

  "Who gave you a makeover my little doll" he lewdly caressed her face, she tried to back away from him touch which felt disgusting and spat on his face.

  "Gest lost! I regret having you as a father!" She said with so much malice and hatred but she noticed a flash of pain in his expression but it was gone as soon as it came.

  Out of annoyance, he hit her and grabbed a handful of her hair in his fist, tugging it tightly causing her to whince in pain "Don't dare talk to me that way bitch, I raised you to be better than this"

  His face was in front of hers, and when she felt his presence directly in her vicinity, she smashed her forehead into his with full force, she used her bound hands to cover her forehead and it decreased the pain done to her, but to him, he felt as if his skull cracked from the impact.

  She struggled but got up in time to run out of the room, out of the house into the woods with no sense of direction, all she wanted was to get away from him. She could hear his growls and grunts of anger and she could imagine the worst if he catches her, he wouldn't spare her.  Her vision was slowly becoming more blurrier, she jumped into what looked like a forest. But unexpectedly she found herself tumbling down a grassy hill, as she rolled down the hill, she hit every rock and wooden log on the way down. The rope around her wrists loosened as it was continuously grazed by sharp rocks down the hill.

  Renée was met with another unexpected disaster when at the bottom of the hill was a giant pond, and she unfortunately rolled straight into it. Her body began to sink in the water, even though the water wasn’t that deep, without the use of her hands she couldn’t get up to the surface.

  She wasn’t going to die like this! She refused to die this wa! She wanted to live! For her mother and herself!… she struggled to the surface.

  She was so depleted of energy as she got to the surface but her will to live and survive was greater than her fear. Using her teeth, she starts to cut through the ropes but later resulted to loosening the knot when she felt that cutting through it was taking more time and the more time she spends trying to get loose, the closer her father gets to her, no doubt that he's really furious now.
 
  In no time she was able to get herself loose, she climbed up the hill and into the woods, there was a change of plan,she had wanted to end this once and for all, she never anticipated a surprise attack but sometimes you have to let nature take it's course and go with the flow, the more steps she took towards the house, the more fury resolve burned within her.
