<Hope's p.o.v>

I opened the door, and as soon as I was in, Harvey grabbed me by my top and slammed me against the wall.

Repeatedly.

My vision was swirling and distorting.

"HOW DARE YOU LEAVE HOME AND MAKE FRIENDS?! DO THEY KNOW? WELL, DO THEY, BITCH??"

I shook my head a little too vigorously, as it sent black dots to appear all over my vision.

Harvey snarled, and punched my stomach.

I doubled over, more from shock then pain.

Then he thrust me against the wall again, and started feeling his way down my body.

It was too much for me.

I heard a single knock at the door before I fainted.

<Xavier's p.o.v>

I followed Hope.

She seemed to be shaking.

I have absolutely no idea why, though.

Then, she stopped at a small-ish looking grim little house.

Almost reluctantly, she reached into her bag, and pulled out a key.

A key?!

Don't tell me this is her house??!

I had a really bad feeling about this.

Hope opened the door with shaking hands, and shut it behind her.

I know I shouldn't pry, but I was curious, so I went round the back and peered through a window.

I saw a big guy grab her and slam her head multiple tines against a wall.

I had to hold a hand over my mouth to stifle a gasp. She looked dazed.

Then he yelled something at her.

I couldnt hear it, but whatever he said, he was very, very angry.

I couldnt watch anymore.

I had to help her.

I pulled our my phone and called Blake.

I explained everything, and he was on his way.

But it was becoming too late.

And then I saw something which made me feel repulsively sick.

He started feeling down her body.

He was going to-

Oh yes, he was.

I had to stop this.

Now.

I ran around the house and knocked on the door.

Nobody answered.

So, I prepped myself, and kicked the door, hard.

It collapsed easily, and the guy who was beating her up, swivled around.

I only managed a quick glance at Hope, before he was racing toward me at full speed.

I dodged out the way, and he hit his head against the wall behind me.

This made him even more angry.

He growled and punched my jaw.

I punched him back.

I then brought my knee up, and knocked him in the stomach.

He doubled over, and I ran to Hope.

"Hope. Hope, can you hear me. Move your hand if you can--"

I couldn't finish, because the guy grabbed me by the back of my shirt and threw me against the wall.

I groaned, and felt simething hot and stickybatbthe back of my head.

My ears were ringing, and my legs were weak, but I picked myself up and lunged at him.

He toppled over, with me on top of him.

We fought like that for a while, until he slammed my head against something heavy and metal and I blacked out.

I willed to wake up, to be there for Hope, but I was unconscious and I had no control over that.

But, my prayers were answered, when I awoke.

I was tied to a chair, and the guy was standing with a kinfie by Hope's neck.

I cried out in anger, but I was scilenced when thebguy pushed the knife slightly into her neck.

"Good. I see your getting it. Try anything, and she gets it. Now, I dont think we've been properly introduced. My name's Harvey. This useless slut's abuser. What about you?"
