   I woke up, with a sore butt, and I felt a bruise on my head; I stayed still for a while, focusing on what's happened.

Then my eyes came in focus; and I was in a bed. As I stretched I wondered around. It was still dark outside but I found myself in a garage? There was many cars.. expensive ones. "Hey sexy." I felt the words linger on my neck; the moisture settling on it. I turned around to see the guy with two braids. Ray I think his name was.. I was starting to get cautious so I stepped back. "Come give daddy some sugar Jj" He said in an seductive manner. My back leaned on the back wall, and Ray held me tightly. And started whispering in my ear, "Keep running away from me and I'll have to do bad things to you.. because im that type of bad boy." He started kissing my neck, sucking on it; leaving hickeys. "S..S..STOP!" I screamed.

"Ray, back the fuck off. Remember.... We can't do anything to another Carter!" A guy with an afro shouted, he looked kind of old fashioned.. but cute with his Nirvana top. Ray finally let loose of my arms, I could already feel bruises forming. "See ya Jj." He winked at me ass he brushed passed the afro puff guy. "Um... Thanks, can I ask... why im not in my own fucking bed, listening to my brother and some ratchet as hoe?" I continuously raised my voice until I was shouting at the top of my voice on 'hoe'.

The afro puff laughed "Yeah; we was gonna use you for business. But since a Carter is already gone.. You have to live with us; and work with us in some way, you cant go back home... because... you can snitch... and snitches get stitches." He laughed again on the last phrase. I stood there straight faced trying to take in that I cant leave. I can never see my brother again... He's going to be so worried. I screamed and tried running out the front door. It was electric shocked... Of course.. Im a prisoner.

Afro puff came behind me. "Yeah... you're not leaving. Anyway Jj.. oh yeah, I mean Jamara? My names Jacob, we might aswell be friends because.... Im not a perve... unlike Ray.. And sorry about that." He introduced himself. I looked at him blankly... still thinking about my family and friends im leaving behind. I started to curl up in a ball again, crying. Why did this all happen to me..! "Mami, don't trouble yourself. It will all become better if you just settle your mind on other things... like something that makes you happy." He explained.

"And what would you know about that.. You're the ones that put me here." I scoffed. He started laughing.. "We've all been put here. Just like you, believe it or not. You've met everybody but Ejiah, he sings to get his mind off things, Chresanto.. we're not sure, but his always writing; but we think its rapping. Ray.. he loves to draw.. but in his past life, he was VERY sexually active so that's why its hard to contain himself around you. Me? I just love to help people; spread the peace; and just live a punk rock lifestyle. Well as much as I can anyway" He laughed.

I couldn't understand, these boys were like me, taken away from their families and forced to work "Why don't you just run away, you get to go out." I laughed at my suggestion. "Honey, you don't understand how advanced this trafficking business is; we have dealers; hustlers. EVERYTHING. And if we run away.

We'd be found and killed in a flash." I jumped at what he was saying to me. Chresanto started walking down stairs and saw me and Jacob sitting by the door talking; he gave Jacob a sour look and signalled him to talk to him in private.

-AjaM.
