Wake Up Call: Honesty Comes First

It Only Worsens

Minutes turned into hours before a scream that was loud enough to wake Chris was heard. He woke with a fearful look, quickly looking around the room. It hit him like a bullet, it wasn't a dream. Minutes later Chris walked down with a girl. She looked as if she was a teen, she was squirming and fighting back, Tears flowed down from her eyes like a river. All Chris could do was stare, he managed to choke out three words, "I'm so sorry..." The girl looked up at him, hope filling her eyes. Chris looked at her with a pained sympathetic look. He knew what she would say, and he knew what the result of that would be. As he observed her a little more, he noticed how damaged she was. She looked under weight, she was bruised badly and cuts covered her body. Jake dropped her on the cold hard bloody mess of a floor. Jake began approaching Chris. He began to patch up Chris' wound. Jake walked back to the girl who was curled up in the corner. "I'm going to show you something that you'll be doing in the future." Jake gripped her arm and yanked her up. He came over to Chris and untied him, replacing his area with the girl. He pulled out the knife and Chris could only stand there, feeling helpless. Jake had the knife and Chris didn't have anything. Jakes lips curled into a smile as he pressed it roughly against her. She began to cry and plead. Jake began sliding the knife down, blood poured out like a waterfall. She cried and screamed, begging him to stop, but he didn't. He went to stomach and looked up at her, she knew what he was going to do "Please, I did nothing wrong.." She managed to choke out. Jake giggled to himself. "Who doesn't like a little pain?" He said to her before finally plunging the knife into her. She let out a scream and Chris backed away, curling up and hugging his knees, staring at Jake. "You sadistic motherfucker..." Jake looked at Chris, he had no shame. "Yes, I am sadistic, but I'd never hurt you." Jake said while approaching Chris and lifting his chin. Chris smacked his hand and sobbed. Jake looked at him with anger. He sliced Chris' arm, hearing him scream. "WHAT THE FUCK- YOU LIAR" Chris yanked his arm back, feeling the pain pulse in his arm. "If you act up I will hurt you, but if you obey me, I'll reward you." Chris looked up at him, if he didn't obey he'd be tortured but have a chance of escaping, if he did obey, he'd be protected but would never have a chance of seeing the outside world ever again. Chris began thinking for what seemed like hours but was only a few minutes. "So.. If I become loyal to you, I'll be safe, what happens if I'm not?" Jakes expression turned serious and his voice was deeper "Then the pain will only worsen."
