Ayra's PoV
Nick? How the hell could Nick be the traitor? I mean he's Nick! If he wanted us dead, he'd kill us himself. Benjamin looks delighted though. He has Nick dragged off towards a cell where he will await trial. Nick is so surprised he doesn't even fight back. Benjamin turns to me.

"Well Little Miss Dracula, thank you for your assistance and it was nice seeing you. I will arrange for your journey home immediately". Who does this guy think he is? I'm not going anywhere.

"No thank you Benji! I'll be staying for another few months. Nine at least! And I'll be presiding over the case thank you very much!" I say chirpily. He looks like he could strangle me but he can't cause I'm a princess! Ha!

As we are leaving with James, Thomas and Diane I turn back to him. "And by the way, it's Princess Dracula to you!"

That afternoon.
At lunch, we all meet up to discuss the Nick situation. I don't believe for one second that it was him.

"He didn't do it" Thomas says. "He was with me the whole time before and after my mother died. He didn't have a chance". We all agree with him. James turns to me "Ayra can't you get him off? You know it wasn't him!" he says in despair.

I shake my head sadly. "Not without solid proof. I totally agree that he's been framed, but we have zero evidence". We all look down at our hands. I've never felt this helpless. "We'll get proof then. Somehow"

"Why did you betray us?"

"I didn't" 

*SLAP!*

"Now be honest! Why did you betray us?"

"I didn't betray anyone!"

"Lying scum! Do you know I lost my only daughter in the attack last week?"

"I lost one of my best friends! I didn't do it! This is a set up!"

The same sentence over and over again. I didn't do it. I don't know why the slayer pointed at me but I didn't do it. They keep asking the same questions. Finally after what seems like hours, but was probably only minutes, I see Benjamin.

"Benjamin! Please tell them to let me go!" I cry. He gives me a filthy look and turns to my questioners. "Use the garlic infused whip. The cat-o-nine tails. That'll loosen his tongue". He leaves the cell. I realise that I'm all alone with no one to help me.

And then the pain starts.
