Vivian's POV

The others got into a fist fight and had to be knocked out. Well, all except for the fish one. I walked over to her. She looked frightened. I reached my hand out to her.

"Don't worry I don't bite. Well, not usually." 

She eventually took my hand and I pulled her up off of the floor.

"T-thanks."

"No problem. Hey, I never got your name."

She smiled a little. "M-my name i-is Gillian. My friends call me Gilly. Well, it used to be Jillian. But then this happened and people started calling me Gilly."

She talked for about 30 minutes straight. (She probably hadn't talked to another person in months.)

It looks like I have a new friend.

I asked her about Lily. She said that she just  needed some hope. We all did. 

And I told her,

"Don't you worry one bit. Soon enough we will be out in the world again because I swear that I will get you and everyone else out of this horrid place!"


If these 'monsters' needed hope. Than I sure as hell was gonna give them some.





But then I thought, Can I really keep this promise?
