Alora

Part 3

Warning! Panic attacks and language ahead!
~Alora's POV~
—————————-
**Some of us matured early because life showed us the worst side of the world at an early age.**

I was kidnapped. By my own brothers. That was the only thought I had when I woke up.

I had no idea where I was, but I knew keeping my eyes closed would make them think I was still asleep.

I would get more time to think this through.

Black was all I could see. Okay Alora, how do you get out of this one?

Focus on your surroundings.

I was laying on something soft, like a bed.

I tried to move but something heavy held me down. An arm??

"siamo sicuri che sia una buona idea? Voglio dire, è solo una bambina." Are we sure this is a good idea? I mean she is just a little girl.

I scoffed on the inside. I was no little girl.

"non durerà un minuto nel nostro mondo. È semplicemente troppo debole per questo." She won't last a minute in our world. She's just too weak for it.

Two of my brothers were talking in Italian. I was not weak!!

"Open you eyes, I know your awake." Someone said.

I froze.

What the heck?? How did he know I was awake??

I opened my eyes and immediately regretted it.

I was laying in a big bed, someone's arms where draped over me, and the rest of my brothers were looking at me.

I gulped.

I looked at the guy laying next to me.

It was my third oldest brother, Xavier.

I looked back to my other brothers.

My two oldest ones, Leonardo and Alessandro where sitting on a couch, just watching me.

Antonio and Alexander where standing by the door, but they had stopped their conversation and looked back to me.

My hands started shaking.

I could feel my whole body shaking, what if they hurt me?!

"Vedo che te l'ho detto, è solo una ragazzina spaventata." See I told you, she's just a scared little girl. Said my brother Alexander.

Before I could stop myself I quickly answered my brother.

"non lo sono! sei solo spaventoso!" I said. No I'm not! Your just scary!

"You know Italian?!" Leonardo asked, shocked and impressed.

"cosa ne pensi?" What do you think?

I had no idea where this new bravery had come from, but I needed to shut my mouth if I wanted to survive.

He smiled. He auctlly smiled.

I wasn't trying to be funny. This wasn't funny, none of this was funny.

I didn't want to be abused! I didn't want to be here period!!

"How do you know Italian?" Xavier asked.

His voice was right by my ear, and I screamed surprised.

Without thinking, I swung my fist at his face.

"Woah!" He said, catching my fist in his hand.

"Easy there sorella." Sister.

My hand started shaking again, but more violently this time.
