Life With Eyeless Jack

|Chapter 8| Cold, Asleep, Gone

A cold breeze woke Ashley up from her deep sleep, darkness that's all she could see, she moved her legs to sit up, but she couldn't, a small tug kept her there, she then moved her blanket to see what was there, two heavy metal shackles held her to a cold concrete floor, where was she, she thought, she was sat in a dark, cold, damp and concrete room... She seen no door and no one in sight. She turned around to see a horrific sight... Bones and a skull with rotting flesh, that looked like it had been eaten to death... She felt something on her face, she touch her lips, and looked at her hand, a thick red liquid, she tasted it. A cold metal taste came to her mouth. Blood. She found an urge to drink more and eat more flesh, was it her that had killed this innocent creature? Yes it was, she then ate the rest of the last over flesh and chewed on the bones for a bit. She lay her hands down beside her, blood came flowing down from her hand, she was bleeding, she looked down and saw a broke mirror, she sucked the blood then picked up the mirror, she starred at herself in terror, she was a monster, just like Jack just like the others... She thought a little wash and she would be fine, she liked it she was normal, and now would fit in with the rest... But first she had to get out. She bit her lip, and her teeth went right through her lip, she squealed in pane and then felt her teeth they were small sharp, piercing needles... That's how I could bite that flesh no bother, she thought to herself... She then bit threw her shackles and stood up, and then fell, she took her time to look around and then stood up wobbling but started walking and started feeling the walls to an escape door or window or anything to get out... But what did she eat, who was it? What was it? Why was it there? She kept repeating questions in her head thinking of no replies...
