No...

Stop it...

It hurts...!

Make it stop!

Please...

God get me out of here!

"Hey... Hey! Wake up!" The sound of a random girl was muffled.

"W-where am I?! Who are you?!" I backed away. "D-don't hurt me, please!"

I started to cry. I couldn't take the trauma I went through. Everyone I see, I think they'll hurt me, harm me, abuse me, treat me like absolute trash! I felt the girl hug me. I was scared, but hugged her back.

"I won't hurt you, don't worry, friend! What's your name...?" Asked the girl.

"M-my name is F-Finn" I replied.

"Nice name! I'm Janice. Aka January!" the girl replied. January? The month?

"What do you mean by aka January?" I asked.

"Oh! I forgot to explain, silly me! Look, 12 people from Earth are chosen. But there's a twist, they all have to be born on different months. What's your birthmonth?" Replied January.

"M-my birthmonth? It's February..." I gave January a smile. I felt comfortable with her... She helped me calm down.

"So you're chosen for February! Hey, you're shivering... Are you okay??" Asked January.

"N-no..." I sniffed. January extended her arms out.

"You need a hug?" January smiled.

"Y-yeah..." I gave January a hug and I started to sob. January started to pat my back.

"Would you... You know, be okay with telling me how you died...? And what caused you sadness?" Asked January.

"Y-yeah... Sure. I-i died cause of my manipulative girlfriend's abuse. She smashed a glass bottle on my head... A-and my sister got kidnapped and- m-my happiness v-vanished instantly w-when that happened... And m-ky mom d-died when I was 6!" I replied and started to cry again.

"Wow... That's deep... I had trauma too but you had much much more... Hey what's your sister's name and birthmonth...?" Asked January.

"H-her name is April and her birthmonth is- well, April!" I slightly laughed.

"Hey, Tanzite come over here!" January yelled.

"Wait, who's-"

"Need anything? Here's your caretaker, February! Meet Amethyst!" I looked at a brunette and cheerful looking girl. She waved enthusiastically at me. I slightly waved, scared that she'll hurt me. Amethyst realized I'm scared and gave me a hug. I hugged her back.

"Aww they're bonding already!" Garnet smiled at us. "Hey, Jan. Did you know that me and Amethyst are siblings?"

"Wow... Really??" Asked January, her eyes widened. "You hear that, Feb?"

"Mhm!" I smiled. "I have a pretty stupid question though..."

"Ask away!" Said Amethyst.

"A-are you all nice...? W-will I be hurt??!" I hugged Amethyst tighter.

"Aww of course! Forgot to mention, the 12 chosen ones have to be through trauma. This place is a safe place for them where they get to live happily ever after!" Replied Tanzite.

"W-wow..." My eyes shone.

"Yeah! Can't you believe it?!" Asked Amethyst, giggling.

"I really can't..." I covered my mouth. "F-finally... Happiness, for once!"

I cried tears of joy. January hugged me and smiled. "Hey, Feb. Very good news, your sister is and was chosen for April!"

"R-REALLY?!?! OH MY GOD!!!" I hugged January. "This is the best day ever! I can't believe it!"

"Yes!!!" January smiled at me. "Hey, look, someone is here! That must be March. He looks like he was sick"

"Yeah.. You're right!" Me and January went to inspect the green haired guy.
