The road we were on was bumpy and rigid. I had no idea where we were going but it's felt like we were riding for hours. The women in the carrage were spaced out from each other, only looking at the ground. They looked tired and weak. I wonder if I look the same. A girl sitting across from me keeps on taking quick glances at me, she looked like she was around my age. I found myself feeling uneasy, we've been sitting like this for far too long.
"My name's Rin." She exclamed. "Want me to take those binds off?" She pulled her hands out from behind her, unbinded.
I nod my head. These things are starting to hurt. She takes the cloth out of my mouth and throws it away and unties the ropes around my hands. "Thank you!" I say, feeling refreshed. I started stretching my mouth and my hands. That feels so much better. "Name's Violet."
"Where are you from?" She asks.
"From a small town called, Coplin." I tell her " It's in the meadowy part of Canada."
"That far!? I'm from Texas." She states.
"I could tell from your accent." I smirk. We looked at each other for a moment, taking in our features. Her hair was tied back, a brown. Her eyes were a grey, and she had frickles on her nose.
"May I ask... What happened to your family?" Rin asks me. The expression she had before disappeared.
I paused. I felt sadness wash over me, "dead." I said, trying to keep my voice from shaking.
"I'm sorry." She apologized. Her eyes drop to the ground. "..... What do you think they're going to do to us?"
"Does it matter? We can't change it, even if we did know." Says the woman in the corner. Her voice was raspy but confident. I didn't notice her there until now. Her hair was blonde and her eyes a diligant blue. She didn't look like the rest of the woman. She looked as though she was bursting with energy. She had a smug look on her face. "By the way they were treating us, nothing good."
"They're going to do terrible things to us." One of the older women say. Rin flinches, her eyes don't leave the floor. Another woman starts to cry, and the woman with blue eyes leans up against her. I guess that's her version of comforting her.
"Stop scaring her! We've already been through enough." The woman with blue eyes growls. "We all have an idea about what's to come. You don't have to remind us." She scolds the older woman.
For awhile, the only sound we hear is the crying of one of the women and the carrage making it's way to our doom. I wonder if the moon is still following me, it must be jealous of me right now. It has no reason to be, even surrounded by these people, I feel lonely. Like the loneliest person on this planet. Even more lonely than the moon. As these thoughts slip in and out of my mind. I feel myself drifting into sleep.

There was an abrupt stop and I awoke from my sleep. The women in the carrage gasped, what they've been waiting for is about to happen. The beginning of the end of us. Suddenly, one of the doors opens up and the climb inside. I throw a punch at them out of instinct and the man grabbed my arm, forcing me down and hitting my head. I feel dizzy and disorianted. Before I knew it, I was on the cold ground and being tied up. The shut the carrage door again. And, the carrage starts moving again. As they drag me away, half unconcious and tired out from the trip, I stare at the carrage as it slowly fades into the distance. I vision went dark, that was the last time I saw Rin or any of the other women.
