Hi guys! Sorry it took so long to update, I went away for remembrance day weekend! Thanks for reading and please, please, please, please comment/vote because I have no idea what you want me to fix or if you have any ideas as to where it should go next. Also, if you can think of a good person to cast as Flick let me know! I'm thinking of using Felicity Jones (nothing to do with the name, she looks really similar to how I envisioned Flick!!! Let me know, I REALLY want to know what you think!!! Thanks

Felicity's Point of View

The light shined down on me as I opened my eyes just a crack, expecting to see my mom standing my my window, smiling and telling me to get up and get ready for school.But she wasn't there. Instead there was a dusty wall with a blood streak running down it and a six inch window across the top that had metal bars across it. Everything came back in a rush of terror. The alley, then the room with the lamp, the belt, the screaming, and then that other thing that I don't even want to think about.. I sat up, feeling my bandages stretch and my skin tear.It was as if someone had kicked me in the gut and was now swinging their leg back and forth, hitting the bruises again and again and again, sending a shock of pain through my chest. Leaning up against the wall I turned to look at Sarah. Poor sweet Sarah, in talking to her earlier I found that although we looked so similar, she was actually two years younger than me, making her only thirteen. And yet, when they threw my limp body in here last night she worked and she worked until I was in a state of comfort, putting me through initial pain to do so. Now she lay there, in her own haunted nightmare, with my blood on her hands. I knew that soon I would have to wake her, and she would find that the nightmare she woke up from did not end, only shifted to something more horrifyingly real than the one she just left.

A warm tear ran down my face but rather than wiping it away I let it fall, knowing that if I didn't, one more would simply take it's place. "I face this much pain and alI do is cry, I thought I was smarter than that," I wispered to myself, knowing that in all of the self defense classes I had taken there had to have been something that related to this but the fact is, nothing can prepare you for this. You think about it in your scariest nightmares but you never think it will actually happen. You just think it's one more thing to be careful of, and push it to the back of your mind.

I was pulled from my thoughts when my gaze shifted to the window. It had to be ten o'clock. I could just see the sun so it seemed I had to be about right. I reached forward and ever so gently rubbed Sarah's arm. "Sarah, you should think about getting up," who am I kidding, it's not like we have plans or anything, "never mind, go back to sleep."

She rolled over and sat up, giving me a sympathetic look. "I've been awake for nearly three hours, I just couldn't think of anything better to do than that," she pointed to the spot where moments ago she had been laying.

"Oh, okay," I looked down, knowing what she was going to ask me eventually. I'd avoided it last night; mostly because I was unconcious for half of it but also because it was so fresh.

"Do you wantt o talk about it?" She asked, obviously reading my expression.

"Uh hu," I said, a tear roolling down my cheek as I slid over into her open arms, resting my tired head on her friendly shoulder.

"Shh, Shh, it'll be okay,it'll get better," she ran a comforting hand down my back making me sob even harder.

"I don't wanna talk, I just need you," I whispered through the tears streaming down my face and the broken expression that lay there.
