Briars POV

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I left the training area with Adrian in silence. Weird, he hasn't gloated about his win yet. He had let me hug Clara, who was crying, goodbye before he had pulled me away. I wonder if I'll ever get to see her again. As he pulled me through the halls wordlessly I realized where we were going and my heart stopped for a moment. To the dark room. I didn't ever bother trying to get away when he opened the door to the room that made night seem like day. I was too tired, too humiliated to bother. He gave me a light push in, shut the door, and left.

I sat where I stood and hugged my knees, not even caring about the room right now. How could I lose? I put everything on the line and lost it all. It wouldn't be so bad if I hadn't pulled Clara and Kaylee into this too. Now it's my fault there stuck here. Or at least where ever Clara is sent. This sucks.

I started to wonder of the memory potion, how bad it will taste, how much I will forget, how it will feel to forget so much. I wonder if I will even realize I'm forgetting anything. I sat there, numb all over. I didn't cry, I didn't want to. I felt like if I did I would never be able to stop. I feel worse than when I first came here. I just don't know why it hurts so much. Maybe it's because I pulled others into it. Maybe it's because I thought I could win. Maybe it's because I thought Adrian really loved me. I winced at that last thought. How had I been so naive?

The door opened and Adrian pulled me up and once again dragged me along through the halls. I didn't meet his gaze but I could feel him looking at me. I didn't want to look into those eyes. I didn't want to be pulled into the trap of his gaze, I didn't want to see what his eyes spoke. They were probably full of happiness and gloating, not an ounce of regret. But I wouldn't know, I refused to look. But I wish I had. I wish I had known if he felt anything. Regret. Guilt. Pain. Remorse. Sorrow.

He took me into a small room full of plants and liquids. I watched him mix together different plants and liquids. He poured a purpleish liquid into a small cup and wordlessly handed it to me. I didn't ask what it was, I didn't need to. I closed my eyes as prayed I would remember as I brought the liquid to my lips. I drank the sweet liquid. I felt the room spin around me as nausea swept over me. I felt myself falling but before I passed out the last thing I saw was Adrian, reaching out to catch me.

When I woke I was in my room on my bed. I turned to see Adrian sitting next to my bed. The guy who trapped me, trained me, confused me and my heart. When he saw I was awake he smiled and in a moment his lips were upon mine. I smiled as he kissed me and my heart sped up. He pulled away and looked at me, smiling. And when he pulled out a small, perfect, diamond ring and asked me to stay with him forever I said yes without hesitation. Why else would I say no?

I needed to get my revenge for what he did to me.

Starting with making him believe I loved him, that I forgot what he did. His little plan may have failed, but mine won't.
