Sorrow, Love, Hope, and Horses

NO!

I am standing in a small box with nothing. A man in a hood put me here. He will destroy all of our hope of rescuing Cody

and leaving this place alive. I don't know what is going to happen. Why am I here in this box. What is going on? What is

going to happen to Cody? I'm scared. No TERRIFIED for him. What will happen to me. What about the others?

I suddenly see a line of light. The door of the box is open. I hear a crowd cheering. oh gosh Oh gosh Oh Gosh OH GOSH

OH GOSH OH GOSH!!!!!!! Reality hits me. This is the box Cody entered the floor to fight in. The back of the box pushes

me into the ring. I look up. The crowd is all around looking down at me. Their is  a tall fence around the floor creating a

arena for me and someone to fig- shoot. This can't be happening. I can't fight. We did a wrestling unit in gym once. I

failed.  THIS IS NO TIME TO THINK ABOUT GYM!!!!!! But this a full out bare knuckle fight. I can't win, nope. I have

no chance of winning.

The door is opening to my opponents box. My opponent steps into the arena. I can make out a muscular figure. Blond

shaggy hair. Brown eyes. Cody?!

He looks around. Confused. He scans the room. Then his eyes meet mine. They widen. Pure terror fills his face.

" ok. Welcome welcome." I voice booms through the room. " our second fight of the night!!" At that the crowd goes wild.

" NO NO!!!!!!!" Cody screams out. " I will not."

" we'll see about that."

" NO" his voice lowers as he mumbles the next words. " please."

" don't plea to me now Cody." The voice booms. " you will eathier fight. Or one of you will get beat in front of the other.
Chose wisely"

I gasp. I can't believe what is happening to me right now.

" no fake fighting eathier. So what is the awnser?"

" the beating." Cody responds.

" and who will be beat?" Before I can realize what's happening Cody steps forward.

" me"

I feel a chain get clasped around my ankle. I pull. It holds tight. I also see Cody getting chained to the pole that was

placed in the center. His hands and feet were chained unlike me with just one chain.  His is stripped of the shirt he had

on. His dad must know how strong he is. Cody looks at me and mouths the words " it's for the best" to me. I feel sick to

my stomach.

A man enters the arena. He has a hood up so I can't see his face. He carries a long whip in one hand. He walks around

Cody then raises his arm. I close my eyes and turn my head away just as he brings his arm down hard. I hear the slap of

the whip as it hits Cody' s back. I hear no whimper of pain.  I hear more slaps, still no whimpers. More. More. More.

More. More. The whip has been slapped about 20 times. I slowly open my eyes. Cody is laying their with blood all

around him. He is breathing heavily. His eyes are still open. Slowly they close. He lays still except from his rising and

falling chest.

Until that stops to.
