Dear Phil,

?

"You thought you could miss a month, didn't you?" Someone snarled.

It was dark. Too dark. She couldn't see anything.

"199114... Do you know how long I've waited for this? For you to slip up?"

She was silent, her matted hair hanging in her face. Eyes closed. Arms limp at her sides.

"Answer me, you little bitch!" A harsh slap to the jaw. Nothing she couldn't take.

Her eyes opened slowly. Two blue lights in the room. "Too long," she murmured. But she wasn't talking to him.

Teeth leered in the ebony. "Yes... Though you're here now. We found your stash, no sense in hiding it anymore." A soft cackle echoed.

"It was for him."

"Who? Your brother? He can survive without you. He's doing it now, girl. Admit it. You loved the power. Reveled in it!" Breath on her nose. "Admit it!" He screamed.

Small sigh. "Admitted." Eyes closed.

"Don't you dare nod off now, 199114," he purred. "We're not done yet..."

A broken laugh. "I am,"

Fury gripped his face. His hand swung up to deliver another slap. A savior caught it. But not a savior for long.

"Enough. She's being tested. Too valuable to be damaged." Cold, clear words. Neither male or female. Just words.

Green eyes held her own. "199114, you need to walk. It is time to get up."

Head lolled. Eyes glassy. An exasperated sigh.

"Carry her."

My name is 199114. My 611391225's is 10135. My best friend 4114. 11251295 was a friend. 205191... I... Got into 41821719 first year. Money tight. I slipped up. Now here.

Head pounded.

They figured out me? Here. Send 851216!

Here, she had no safe place. She could be attacked from anywhere. Her doctors told her that she'd been her only a week. It felt longer.

Arms don't work. It was one of the tests they gave.

Words outside her cell. The green eyed someone spoke them.

Repeat, repeat. Numbers matter more.

It's how she keeps from going insane. She's memorized her mixture. She's memorized her numbers, other numbers, all numbers. Words no longer come easy.

168912 betrayed me. Can't trust. Saved themselves. After my 611391225? Was part of mission..?

Words are scarce here.

231518419 1185 1931185 85185.

It's not a hard code, once you figure it out.
