{The Basement}

It's pitch black. I haven't eaten a damn thing. It's fucking freezing. I feel dirty and disgusting. I just wanna get out of here. I just wanna lay in bed. My body hurts. Everything hurts. I can't move. My wrists are tied. My ankles are chained. God, I wish I could just go home. Yeah, my mom was a junkie, but she never abused me or anything. I miss her. I'd rather be with a heroine addict than be here with this monster. I hear the door open. Thank god.
"John, unchain and untie him. And get him dressed. He's off punishment." He doesn't even deserve a name, that monster. He unchains my ankles, unties my wrist. He throws my tshirt and pajama bottoms at me. I hurry to get dressed. Fuck, it hurts to move. Then I try my best to hurry to the stairs. Stumbling, not being able to see.
I finally make it upstairs, thank god.
"I hope you learned your lesson. Go wash up." Helen says.

{Lucid's Room}

I hear someone coming up the stairs. Then they go into a room and start the shower. The bathroom. Is it Elis? I wonder. Is he okay? I'm really starting to get a bad vibe now. I'm scared. What if I get in trouble and get sent to the basement. What the hell is down there? A wild animal? Torture machines? I wish I wasn't so curious. Curiosity killed the cat. That cat could be me, if I'm not careful.
