Chapter 29 

"Your...." I paused, that's the Alex from my old neighborhood! "Hay" he chuckled scratching the back of his neck, i looked back at the ground in shame, i can't believe i let him see me looking so weak and frail. "Wow, don't look so sad about it, i mean im not that bad right?" he said chuckling and walking over to me. He stood in front of me and took the top out off the bed.
"U-um what-" i was about to ask what he was doing until he cut me off by putting the light blue top over my head, "Can you take the ripped one off from under this one?" he asked and i shook my head yes, "okay, do that and i'll take you to get something to eat." i pulled my arms through the sleeves and took off the ripped top, weakly and shakily i put my arms through the sleeves of the blue top. "But i-i don't e-eat normal stuff" i whispered and he smiled at me, "i know" he said and helped me up. "Im going to have to put the jacket back on you, but i won't tie it. It's just in case a gourd sees you" He said picking up the straight jacket and slipping it over my head. He then raped my arm around his shoulder and helped me walk to the door. "Um w-what are you going t-to make me eat?"I asked in a shaky voice trying to sound strong, "Some stake, can you eat that?" he asked turning to look at me, "I d-don't know" i said looking down "that's okay, just give it a try. When was the last time you ate?" he asked leading me around a corner.  

"D-don't k-know" stumbled but he caught me and held my arm around his shoulder tighter. 

"How long have you been down there?" what's with all the questions?! "W- Day is it?" i squeaked as he opened a door which lead to the cafeteria. "Its the 21st of November, and its Monday" he replied leading me to an empty table. There was only four other people in the room and it was really quiet. "Um, about t-three mon-month's" i stuttered as he helped me sit down on a chair. "WHAT?!" he yelled making all the people in the room look our way. "Three months, what has he been doing to you?" He asked which sent a shiver down my spine, i started shaking and i felt the color drain from my face. "Sorry, don't answer that. ill be right back I'm just going to get you some stake." He said rubbing my back before walking away to the counter where a large woman stood with a net over her hair. 

"Well if it isnt my little Alex, aww how are you my dear?" the woman said with a smile "Hay Gladice im fine thanks, do you think i could get a stake and s glass of water?" Alx asked and the woman i assume is Gladice smiled brightly and looked over to me. "Is it for the little miss?" she asked giving me a sad concerned smile. "Yeah my uncle was a little too harsh on that one," Alex said glancing back at me then back at Gladice "oh dear, she looks really beaten up, ill go get you the stake right away but don't you think toast would be better she looks a little pale." Gladice said still looking at me "No, she only wants stake for now, thank you though." Alex smiled and Gladice nodded and walked away. Alex walked back over to me and sat down on the metal chair. 
"Why a-are you d-doing this?" i asked receiving a warm smile from Alex. "Because we're friends right?" he asked and i looked at him confused "aren't y-you afraid o-of me?" i asked raising a brow, he chuckled at leaned an elbow on the table "no, should i be?" he asked and i smiled. After about 10 minutes Gladice came to our table with a plate that had my stake on it and a glass of water. "T-thank you" i said with a weak smile and she smiled back. "No problem kiddo!" she smiled rubbing my head then walking away. "She s-seems nice" i smiled and Alex smiled back "yup! she's really nice, i always visit her when i come here" he said with a smile. 

After i attempted to eat the stake i gagged and had to spit it out befor i was sick. I apologized to Alex and drank all the water. After that we talked for a while until his uncle came in the room and told Alex to bring me back. He helped me back to the 'white room' and i was chained back to the wall. Alex left and so did Mister Yikes, leaving me there on my own in the dark and cold. 

The next day Alex came back to visit me but i wasn't allowed out the room. "Alex, i need you to wait outside for a moment." Mister Yikes said and Alex nodded and walked out the room. 
"Now, Annabell." Mister Yikes said and picked up a scalpel and walking in front of me.

 "N-no please I've been a good girl! i swear!!" i yelled and struggled in the chains. He laughed and walked closer kneeling down in front of me. "No Annabell this is for spitting in my face." he said and cut just under my eye. "AHHH!" i screamed as he moved to my head. he pushed the tip of the blade against my forehead and pushed it into my skin slowly. "PLEASE!" i begged and he chuckled, "Aww butt Annabell i haven't even started!" he laughed picking up the sledgehammer and hitting me on the arm. making it bend the other way. I screamed out in agony as everything around me started to spin "WOW would you look at that, i don't think it's supposed to bend that way!" he laughed and dropped the hammer on my foot making a squishing sound and a loud "CRACK!" he started laughing as i could feel myself starteing to passout, the room was spinning and my vishion was going black, the pain is too much! "Oh no you dont." he said and slapped my cheek. I could still feel myself slipping away, but he rushed to the table and grabbed a suryndge with some weared yellow stuff in it. He rolled up my sleeve and stabbed the needle in my arm and squeezed the liquwid into my vaine. Again i screamed as i felt like i was burning from the inside out. "There we go now where did i put that hammer?" he questioned and walked to the other side of the room, leaving the needle sticking out of my arm. 

"Uncle stop!" Alex shouted making Mister Yikes turn to the door. I kept my head down like always and sobbed quietly. Alex walked over to me and took the needle out my arm and placed it on the table, but his uncle wasn't listening as he picked up the hammer and walked back to me. "Kid one day you'll learn that once a MONSTER always a MONSTER!" he said swinging back the hammer and hitting me hard in the stomach. "AHHHHHH!" i screamed louder than i ever have it was blood-curdling. Alex grabbed the hammer and threw it across the room making a loud "BANG!" and some of the tiles split and broke off. "Uncle thats enough!" Alex shouted, his uncle huffed and walked out the room. Alex quickly crouched down and lifted my head "Annabell you still with me?!" he said loudly but i couldn't talk, that blow to the stomach knocked to wind right out of me. I panted trying to catch my breath and slightly nodded my head. He let out a sigh and hugged me. "I've gotta say you're one hell of a strong person"  He chuckled and let go of the hug "I wouldn't be able to take a hit like that." He said trying to cheer up the mood, I let out a wheezy chuckle but still didn't raise my head. "Wa...tur" i said in between gasps, "Oh right yeah!" he said standing up "I'll be right back." he said and hurried out the room.

I don't think i can take much more of this!
