Part 6: the master

He removed the blindfold and let her fall back onto the hours that passed by, and she hardly could open her eyes as she looked at the room and he was no where to be found.

She heard a knock on the door. "I heard screams; I've come to check up on the old man living in the tavern. Is everything okay?" A strange voice said

Jasmine screamed, Help me, help me! He kidnapped me! Help me, please!" as she flailed and screamed.

"That little shit," the stranger said as the door was slowly opened.

"Are you okay? What happened to you? I am a doctor," the stranger said.

Jasmine looked in disbelief as a tall woman with short black hair and green eyes, wearing a black and green tight suit and high heels, came in with a bag in her hand.

Her face was covered by a black mask fuming green smoke.

Jasmine felt saved, but at the same time, there was an alarming danger poking her soul.

. She didn't recognize this woman from before.

"I'm sorry, maam, but who are you?"

"My name is Herzah; I am the town doctor.

 What happened? And how did you get here?" she asked 

"Im not sure I have any memories," Jasmine said as she laid down and shut her eyes.

" What? But thats not possible! "

"I don't know if I was kidnapped by that man who owns this place called Yakami."

"Oh.... Thats horrible.. What did you say your name was again?"

"Jasmine," she answered as she began to drift off.

"Well... Well... Jasmine... This is so unfortunate... We will take care of you. I am just going to clean your injuries... Then we'll find someone who can look after you until you get better.

She closed her eyes and put her body to sleep.

"Well, Miss Jasmine, your body is badly bruised; it looks like someone threw you against the wall a couple dozen times," she said while checking the bruises on her arms and neck.

"How long has it been?"

Well, since yesterday afternoon. Are you hungry?"

Jasmine nodded, "Yes."

"Then you need to eat something first."

Jasmine followed her instructions and started eating some fruit that was brought in from outside the room.

"Where am I?" and why am I in these clothes? "

The doctor took a seat across from her as she started cleaning the cuts on her thighs and abdomen.

"You must be new here. I am sorry," she said.

"What are you talking about? Who am I? How do you know me? Where am I? Why am I here?"

First, I want you to calm down and listen carefully and remember nothing. Okay? You can ask any question you want. Now I need to ask you some questions," she continued.

"It seems like you've been here for a day... You were kidnapped by that man. And you were raped too... You have a broken leg and a broken wrist. You also lost a lot of blood... You were lucky that you survived... But you still have a long way to go. Now get some sleep as Herzah put a mask with purple gas on Jasmine's face and she fell unconscious.

Hours later 

Jasmine woke up and saw that she was lying in a bed.

She got up and saw Herzah sitting on his chair, drinking a glass of wine. "Ehh... your taste is shitty."
