"Your mine"
My heart stopped, just for a moment, but i felt everything i knew leave my mind, it was as if a spell was broken and i finally understood, why i was here. Ever since my foster parents told me that my birth parents didn't die but had left me i knew i was a mistake. I was 12. I didn't have friends, i only had Yas, since forever. But even she made me feel like she didn't need me and i believed her. And now this stranger, made so much sense.. my mind and heart told me to stay but i couldn't.
"I don't even know you!" I scream watching Leon flinch away his eyes darkening.
He reached his arm towards me but i stood up backing away. "Let me explain Cara, please" his voice broke, along with my soul. Shaking my head i walked away, running slightly to the door but before i could reach it i got slammed against the wall and spun around. Leons eyes catch mine and i see the desperation in his gaze. His hot breath coated my forehead as he looked down at me, only realizing now how tall he was.
"Cara" he whispered pinning my wrists above my head leaving me defenceless. I looked away from him and whimpered, was he going to use my body.. kill me? "Look at me" he said, i felt hot red anger boil through me and before realizing what i was doing i slammed my wrists down between us pushing him away from me. Leon stumbled back a few steps but it was all it took as i had run out the door and into the elevator. The doors shut and i slink against the cool metal interior, breathing hard and shakily. Swearing under my breath realizing I'm still only wearing Leon's ACDC shirt and that i left my bag containing my phone and wallet in his apartment. Walking out of the elevator i walk out of the apartment complex and down a couple blocks thankful to not have been seen yet. It was dusk leaving little to no sunlight left. A loud beep made me jump as a familiar car pulled up beside me. Relief filled me and i got absorbed a few moments later by a sweet smelling girl, her mid length black hair enveloping me.
"Where the fuck did you go! I asked everyone and some people said they saw you run off into the woods! Are you fucking crazy! Who's shirt is that, have you been crying! Carathina Yoss what happened!" Demanded Yas letting me go from her death hug, scanning my body for bruises or injuries, silent Danny took off coat and draped it over my shoulders, in that moment i broke. I whimpered then started to cry, my body rocking from my cries. Yas whispered soothing things as she pulled me into the car and let me rest my head on her shoulder as she stroked my hair. Through the tear filled world i saw Yas look at Danny through the rear view mirror with concern that mirrored his.

Back at the campus Danny carried to the infirmary and tucked me in bed before kissing Yas and leaving us. Yas pulled a chair beside my bed and looked at me with a serious blank look.
"What happened Cara" Yas asked but all i could do was shake my head and roll onto my side, i wasn't ready to tell her or anyone.
"I'm getting Pam" Yas muttered, patting my shoulder but i complained no."We can't help you if you won't let us in Cara" Yas said before leaving.
The itchy sheets irritated my skin making it hard to fall asleep. I glanced at the clock in the dimly lit room from the moonlight outside and it read 2am. It only felt like minutes that i layed on the bed. Knowing and fearing that Alex would come to punish me. I was right.
At 5 past 2 light beamed through the door and two heavily built men walked in wearing crisp suits. Knowing what would happen i screeched and tried to escape their reach but the blonde grabbed my hair while the other duct taped my mouth and grabbed my ankles, dragging my out of the room and down into the basement, to the hidden door.
The musky smell of dead particles made my eyes water, my scalp felt like it was on fire and the hands around my ankles were intended to leave marks. I moaned which gained me a tug of my hair making tears slip down my cheeks.
Going through the underground tunnels made my head spin as the fluorescent lights flashed by above me. Finally i was pulled into a room and stabbed onto a metal slab. After what felt like a lifetime Alex walked in wearing a lab coat and jeans, his black hair and eyes complimented his pale skin in a menacing way. Looking at me he grinned making me shiver to the core.
"Carathina, oh how i've dreamed about the day where i could finally be rid of you" Alex said going to the left side of the room sorting through tools. "You may be wondering what treatment you'll be receiving today.. today isn't like normal Cara, you will receive all the treatments i wish and then i will either kill or keep you, either way your friends will be told you ran away again. Poor Yas she is one of my precious students".
Taking the lab coat off and throwing it onto the ground Alex walked towards me, he was in his mid thirties but looked 20. His fingers trailed up my exposed thigh due to Leons shirt that had crept up my leg. Goosebumps rose on my skin and i whimpered.
"Shh i'll take care of you" Alex whispered before grabbing something out of my peripheral vision. I felt pressure upon each side of my head and i heard a faint buzzing not too far from my head. Knowing far too well what the machine was i struggled against my restraints but Alex tore off the duct tape.
"I want to hear you scream" he said before turning on the machine. Electricity jolted through my body making me arch my back and my fingers and toes twitch, trying not to scream i bit my lip but tasting blood i stopped.
"It seems you've gotten used to the low setting, lets feed you some more juice" Alec said, hearing his turn the dial. My body burned from the inside out and i let out a high pitched scream, it seemed to last forever. I felt every jolt of electricity from head to the tips of my toes, i continued to scream and i jammed my eyes shut. I opened them again seeing a bright light in the doorway. My body was shutting down so my hearing sensory organs was sterile, seeing Alex move his lips then get thrown against the wall by this light. The light moved toward me and shut off the machine, my eyes rolled back into my head and i felt vibrations in my ear and my cheeks sting as someone shook me.
In that moment i knew i was dying, the light was my beacon, the restraints holding my wrists were gone and i held out my hand and the light grabbed me, pulling me out of the darkness and into death. I silently apologized to Yas and Danny before falling into unconsciousness and limp in the lights arms.
