At the hospital:
Dan woke up expecting Phil to be there. He was there earlier. But as he fluttered his eyes open, the only person in the room was the nurse checking his IV.
"Phil.." He managed to mumble.
"I'm sorry. But your friend left a couple of hours ago. He must've went home to get some sleep." She said and patted Dan's arm comforting.
"Of course. Once again he isn't there when I need him most" Dan thought sadly.

With Phil (wherever he is):
Phil opened his eyes. Or he thought he did but all he could see is black. He tried to see if something was covering his eyes or if he was in a dark place. But when he tried to move his arms, they didn't budge. He felt cold metal against his wrist and his ankles. The man must've chained Phil up...
"Try to remember his face, Phil. When you escape, you need to know his face. So that you can tell the authorities." Phil thought holding onto a little hope. Nothing came to him as he pried his memory. "Maybe...just maybe... Someone could hear me, if I screamed loud enough." Phil thought as he took a deep breath and yelled. After he yelled, he waited a second. Hoping to hear a response.
Nothing.
"Louder. I must scream louder." Phil whispered to himself and then screamed as loud as he could "HELP ME!!!!!" After another second with no response. He tried again. "HELP ME!!!!" Again, no response. "HELP ME!!!!" Again. "HELP ME!!!" He tried over and over again until his voice was hoarse. He tried one more time but this time, the scream came out only as a whisper. Tears started pouring down his face as he gave up on the little hope he had.

Back at the hospital:
"Dan, honey. Are you okay?" she asked as she walked in Dan's room. The scene before Kelsey, was shocking. Dan on the ground screaming and pounding the ground with tears rolling down his face. She walked up to him and put a hand on his forearm. Dan pulled his arm away from Kelsey fast and glared at her. "YOURE THE REASON, HE WASNT THERE FOR ME!! YOURE THE REASON IM HERE!! YOU'RE THE REASON, HE ISNT HERE NOW!! DAMMIT, WHERE IS HE!!? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH PHIL?!!"
Nurses and security came running into the room because of the drama unfolding. The nurses led a shocked, Kelsey out the room and the security guys held Dan down on his bed and sedated him.

Back with Phil:
"Well. Well." Phil heard whispered and felt warm breath on his face. It has been hours since he last screamed. Or it at least felt like hours. " Tried to get help, now did we? Did you know that screaming is against the rules?" He waited a second as if expecting Phil to answer. Phil responded by turning his face away from the voice. The man grabbed Phil face forcefully, hurting Phil. "It is against the rules. And do you know what we do with people who break the rules?" He said without pausing or letting go of Phil's face.
Phil thought, "People...? He's done this before-" Phil's thoughts were broken as he felt a rough tongue lick his face. Trying to pull away, only caused the man to squeeze Phil's face harder. "Don't resist it!" The man whispered, harshly. Phil, then, felt his pants get unbutton. And then they started to slide down his legs. The man kept doing it, going for Phil's boxers. Phil struggled to get away but the chains, still didn't budge. There was a sound somewhere from above as the man hurriedly got up and ran. "Thump. Thump. Thump." Phil heard as the man ran up the stairs. "Now's my chance!" Phil thought. "HELP ME!!!!! HELP!!! PLEASE!!" He screamed over and over. There were more footsteps on the stairs. "OVER HERE!!" Phil yelled.
"Chase... Why are his pants down?" A woman's voice said. The man, Chase, was not alone. "I-I. I was going to punish h-him for screaming." Chase, also, wasn't in charge. Phil could tell by the stutters.
"Well. Punish him some other time. Right now, he's mine. Go away, Chase." The woman said full of power.
More footsteps ran up the stairs as Chase left.
"Phil, you know, I thought you knew better than this. Better to go into a dark alley by yourself. Better to leave Dan lonely." The familiar voice said as her long nails ran down Phil's bare chest. "What a shame, Philly..."
Phil, then, knew who was behind that voice. The only person who calls him philly, other than Dan, was Kelsey.
Aye! Kelsey is bad or is she....? 🌝 Let me know what y'all think by commenting, voting, and adding it to you're library. Thanks, loves! 💖
