I was drifting in and out of consciousness, my body acing all over. I think I have some cracked ribs at the very least if not broken. I know this because it hurts like hell every time I breath. Man they really did a number on me this time. The last time I was here, held captive by Korse and his minions, they didn't hurt me as much. They hurt me pretty bad but not as bad as this time. Then again Korse wasn't torturing me for information. No, he did it simply for the fun of it. After all he is a sick man. Let me rephrase that, he is a sick monster. He is no man just a sick, deranged monster, who finds joy in the suffering of others.

"Tell me where their hiding!" Korse yelled while slamming his hands on the table I was still strapped to. Please, as if that will scare me. I gave a short chuckle because it hurt to much to laugh, and I had I sloppy smirk on my face for it was all that I could muster in my dazed state. "Go to hell." I said calmly. "Why do you insist on provoking me?" He yelled at me, his face going red. Funny, he kinda reminded me of a tomato. "Because I like pissing you off." I said, looking at him with half lidded eyes. It's true, I like to annoy him. It's the only thing I can do, given the circumstances. Even if it wil cost me. I know it's not smart to make him mad because all that will follow is pain.
Oh how right I was. Right after a said those words I was met with his fist hitting my face. But he didn't stop at the one punch like I thought he would. No he kept going till I started spitting up blood. That's when I had enough of his bullshit. I was seething at this point. He just doesn't get it. "When are you going to get it through that thick skull of yours? I won't tell you anything! There is only two ways this is going to go down, I'm either going to somehow get out of here with my live or you'll end up killing me! And at neither of these two possible outcomes, will I tell you anything!" I yelled at him with venom dripping from my words. I was many things but a treater wasn't one of those things.
"Why do you care so much? Who's to say they won't betray you like your all friends." He said smirking, knowing he struck a nerve. That brought back old memories. One's I'd rather forget. They brought so much pain with them.

~~~~~* Flashback*~~~~~~

I was with my group that consisted of three other people. Toxic Blare, Gear Head and Led Storm. We where standing in zone 3. Gear Head, the leader of the group, had said that we needed to come here.

"Why are we here." I asked. No one answered. I opened my mouth to ask again, thinking they might not have heard me, but I shut it soon after seeing white vans with the BL/ind logo on the side. I raised my ray gun ready to shoot when I was kicked in the back of my knee causing we to loos my balance and fall to my knees and dropping my ray gun out of surprise.

Then I was kicked in the face, sending me backward lying on the ground with a bleeding nose. I was so confused. Why was this happening? Toxic Blare took hold of my left arm while Led Storm took hold of my right. They lifted me up onto my feet and held onto my arms so that I couldn't get away or fight back while Gear Head pointed his ray gun at me.
The vans had stopped in front of us now and dracs were piling out along with Korse. Korse walked up to me as I was struggling to get free and smiled cruelly at me. "Well done Gear Head. As part of our deal I will leave you alone." He said, not talking his eyes of me. Korse has been hunting us for some time now. Turns out he wasn't hunting the group, he was hunting me. After all, I do always screw up his plans. So they made a deal with Korse. All just to save their sorry assess. He leaves them alone and they give him what he wants. Me. Of course he didn't actually uphold his part of the deal. No, he killed them right after they handed me over to him.
​​​
So that's how I found myself rotting in one of the prison cells getting my ass kicked ever day by dracs.

~~~~~~*End of flashback*~~~~~~
​​​​​ There were tears running down my face. Thinking of how they betrayed me, hurt me deep. In that moment Korse managed to make me feel so weak.
But I won't break. Not now. Nothing ever.
