Never to Return *Starting up again 1-10-18*

Chapter Two: Subject 217

When I woke I noticed three things.
-One: My body hurt so bad that I wanted to cry
-Two: I have no clue as to where I am
-Three: I was in chains

At first I was very confused. My mind hadn't even registered what had happened. Then, all of a sudden, I remembered. I had woke up, tried to fix the shower, got attacked by Marty, ran to the kitchen, got yelled at, Marty told Martha a lie, I got slapped, Martha and Marty debated what to do with me, Kassidy told me that Marty was a perv (more or less), I kicked him, he beat the crap out of me, the door exploded, Martha died, Marty died, Kassidy got injected with something, a guy in a suit had claimed me, touched my forehead and I passed out.

That's when my heart started to race. Here I was in a dark room, chained to a wall, and hurting all over. My hands were stretched out, chained to the wall, with very little room to move them.I could maybe move them about five inches forward or back. My legs were chained to the wall at the bottom. I could take about a step back; depends on your definition of a step. Alexa, get a hold of yourself. You have been in worse situations than this.I told myself. I had started to calm down a little. So, what I need to do right now is find a way to get free from these chains, find out where I'm at, and see if getting out of here alive was possible. Pleased with my strategy I tried to see if the chains were weak enough to break.

That's when I heard a noise. It came from the other side of the room. A small child whimpering. "Kassidy!" I yelled.

"Lex, I'm scared. I want mommy and daddy." Kassidy started to cry.

"Shhh K-bear. Shh. You need to be strong." I said.

"I want mommy and daddy Lex. Where are they?" She whispered.

"What do you remember last?" I asked.

"Um daddy beating you with a belt because you kicked him."

"That's all you remember?"

"Yes." She responded. She was quiet for a couple of seconds and then asked the question again.

I was quiet for a minute deciding if I should tell her the truth. In the end I decided to tell her the truth but not what had happened to them. "Kassidy, your mommy and daddy died."

"What? Why?" She started wailing. "Where are we? Where are you? Why are we here?" With each question she asked her wailing got louder.

"Kassidy. Shhhh. Please you have to be quiet. I promise I'll find a way to get us out of here. "

That seemed to calm her down a little. "You promise Lex? "

"Yes. K-bear. I promise. And I also promise that as long as I am here no harm will come to you." I knew that what I had just promised was probably impossible given the situation we are in , but like I said, as long as I live no harm will come to her. I will die for her if it comes to that.

"Lex?" Kassidy whispered.

"Yes, my bear? "

"I think I'm going to take a little nap. The medicine is working. " Kassidy yawned.

"What medicine? " I asked. When she didn't answer I started to freak out. "Kassidy?! What medicine did they give you?"

"Lex please don't yell. I don't like it when you yell." Kassidy said in a voice way too old for her. "All he said was that this medicine was to lessen the pain." Kassidy yawned again.

"Lessen the pain for what Kass? What did they tell you?! " I frantically tried to find out information before she fell asleep.

Kassidy started to cry as, from the sound of it, her body involuntarily spasmed and then stopped."Lex...It hurts...it hurts so much..." She whimpered. After a moment of silence Kassidy spoke again, her voice very hoarse. " I want to... I think I'm going to close my eyes now Lex. They told me that it would be like taking the longest nap of my life." Kassidy started to have a coughing fit. I closed my eyes and prayed that it was just a cough. When she finally finished she whispered, "Lex. I love...you. " Then she fell  silent.

"Kassidy!" I yelled trying to break my chains, yet once again. "Kassidy please wake up." I began to sob.

At that moment lights flooded into the room rendering me blind for about 20 seconds. When I could finally see I gasped. Across the room from me was Kassidy. Her face was bruised and pale. But that is not what made me gasp. For the reason was that her hair had been cut extremely short and her arm had some kind of bandage wrapped around it. Basically to say, she did not look like herself.

So caught up in my observation and crying, I didn't even hear the conversation they were having. All I know is that the two guys seemed to have one goal, one mission and that mission was Kassidy. They walked over towards Kassidy and one guy checked her pulse. When he was done he unchained her, letting her small body fall to the ground, I hear her head hit the ground, which caused me to sob even more.  I tried to break the chains again. "Hey!" I yelled through my tears. "Careful! She is just a child. " I whispered, absolutely defeated. It was no use, these chains were not going to give.  

The two guys completely ignored me. One of the guys pulled out, what look like, a tape recorder. "Subject 217 seems to be unresponsive. "

"Hey!! She is not a number! She is a person! " I yelled furious.

The other guy, the one not with the tape recorder, picked Kassidy up and threw her over his shoulder. "Come on Ian, lets get her out of here. " he said as he started walking towards the door.

" You know what Seth? That is the fourth one this week. I don't know what we are doing wrong..." Ian mumbled as he walked out the door.

"Hey!" I yelled after the guys. "Could you at least unchain me?!" When I got no answer I screamed in frustration, tears forming in my eyes. Why am I even here? Where are they taking her?

I was starting to get fed up with this whole thing.  "Help!!" I screamed. "Help! I'm chained to the wall! Help! Please! Anybody?!" After a few more seconds of hollering for help, I gave up. I was so hoarse. Defeated, I closed my eyes to keep even more tears from falling.

"Nobody is going to help you." A familiar voice said. "I told them to disregard your screams."

I whip my head around so fast, that pain exploded from the right side of my neck, I winced. 

There, standing in the doorway, was the guy from the house who claimed me to be his. "Now, my dear, you are going to tell me your name even  if I have to torture it out of you."  He walks towards me and stops a couple of feet in front of me. "So, Kitten,  I suggest you chose wisely."

I know that I am going from past tense to present tense. I know and I am sorry. After I finish this book, I will change all that and make it all one tense. I am not the best writer, not by a long shot, but I am trying to fix and minimize my mistakes. So please hang in there as I try my best to write this story. :) 

I have a new book called My Demonic Guardian Angel and I was wondering if you can take the time to check it out. Only if you want to.
