-Chapter 10 - Caged-

Marilyn's POV:

    I struggled to remember Tori's plan to leave the city, I suspect out of shock but I was desperately grasping to what signal she had told me to use when the coast was clear and when there was danger. I was currently pinned against the wall by a blonde man with eerily deep brown eyes so it was not the best time to be forgetting this. But here I was, the thing that made it all the worse was his smug smirk as if he had won the lottery I wanted nothing more than to smack that smirk off his face but one thing stopped me. I knew he was a Venom the moment he touched me. Men were sick to me. It's why I stayed away from them they didn't want anything more than your body and that was something I didn't want someone so revolting as a man to touch.

"Say something girl and your dead." he had threatened. So here I was although the wall was getting extremely uncomfortable it had to have been many hours that had passed or maybe I was just extremely bored. I was hoping that Tori or Kate would come save me or heck even Abigail or Tyson I really didn't care at this point. I opened my mouth to speak I knew I was done living the moment he opened his disgusting mouth; I wasn't getting out of this situation alive I knew it. He definitely did. Smug bastard. Either way I was done I thought about it for a while and so I looked at him with a lazy smirk desperately hoping to say what was on my mind. I hoped my death wouldn't hurt but at this point it was really inevitable Venom's were said to have extremely potent venom er poison. The poison usual was small and just had the usual coughing and trouble breathing for a certain amount of time sometimes vomiting if the dose was more than a little. But too much poison from a Venom in anyone's system especially a Flora's due to our already high poison levels because of our production of plants such as poison ivy or poison oak, would be enough to burn the skin until it was too painful to handle and the victim would feel the need to rip it off their body causing them to bleed out. It wasn't a good death but what choice did I really have sit here and wait for my friends to be cornered? No I wanted to die if it meant saving them.

"You know I've really hated men like hated them." I said my voice it's usual confident tone. The man in questions eyes were starting to glow green so I continued refusing to back down. "Men always want what they can't have like Mayor Sterling for instance the bastard or a more vulgar name that I'm not going to repeat lives in the shadows like a fucking coward. And hell yeah I don't curse but at this point I'm going to die so might as well go out with a last horah!" I felt my energy strengthen and I plastered a smile on my face, my eyes turning a lighter green then the man as I felt the poison enter my system "Now please get off so I can say goodbye to my family" I said in a too-sweet-tone. The man didn't answer only deepened his frown in an instant rose thorns shot out from the wall, wrapping themselves around the man until he was torn up everywhere. "I won't kill you but my girlfriend probably will so I suggest you leave you sick coward" I hissed and he did just that I was right to call him a coward. The way he ran was pathetic.

And then the scream my blood ran cold when I heard it only to realize it was me. I dropped to the floor and furiously tore at my skin begging the pain to end. I heard voices from the hallway and smiled lightly to myself when my friends and family came dashing around the corner. "Thank you for coming" I choked out my voice sounded horrifying but I needed to speak my peace before I died. "Marilyn!!" Kate shrieked rushing to my side, tears falling like waterfalls down her cheeks. She didn't seem to care if the blood got on her clothes and for that I wanted to cry myself. "Y-your gonna be okay, r-right?" she sobbed clutching tightly onto my wrist. My eyes I knew were more bloodshot than light green and I probably looked hideous but Kate didn't care how I looked she never seemed to care when it came to my appearance. I didn't want to answer her when we both knew I in fact would no be okay. Instead I looked at her with a soft smile fighting my fidgety nerves that heaved my body up in down.
