"Ahhhhh!"

I scream as I'm roughly shoved into a pole in the center of an abandoned room. I had passed out at the wrecking yard and was harshly woken up right before we entered this room.

The guy manhandles me, twisting me around so my back is pressed up to the pole in a painful way. I whimper and gasp as his hands try to keep me still.

His dirty hands grab at my jaw, nails digging into my cheeks. "Relax."

I huff. "You do realize; I'm a very powerful witch." I grit out.

He pushes me back again. "Without your friends, you're nothing but a little girl in a cheep dress."

"This dress is not cheep." I growl. I try to push him off but he moves his hand down to my throat and squeezes. I scream and gasp for breath.

The man brings his hand up and slowly drags it down my cheek making me internally gag. His hand continues down, tracing my body. He reaches the slit in my skirt and moves his hand inside. I growl and try to push him away. He quickly snatches my phone and holds it in front of my face.

"Can I barrow your phone?" He holds it over his shoulder as Eben walks towards us.

The older witch hunter grabs it and hands the other one chains. I thrash around once I see them.

"Give me your hands." He roughly grabs my wrists and pulls them behind the pole, securing them tightly behind me.

I glare at Eben as he watches the whole time. "Let's see what your life's worth." He spoke.

With my back against the pole, I sighed in aggravation. I drop my head back till it hits the metal roughly and once again try to pull the chains apart.

Suddenly, I feel a rush of energy course through me. It felt like my heart skipped a beat.

I groan and continue what I had been doing. I thrashed around, trying to get the chains to come loose. I shook my whole body and pulled roughly but nothing happened.

Pulling one last time, I feel a rush of power shoot through me before the chain snapped and my hands were free. I look at them in shock.

"Please let this be happening." I mutter to myself.

I stand quickly and rush to the door to leave. I try the knob but it was locked. I smirk and will the lock to unlock. With a satisfied click, the door opens and I walk out.

"Oh, I am so back."

Deciding to go one way, I see the witch hunter that had manhandled me. I cock my head with a smirk planted on my lips. Roughly slamming the door to get the man's attention, I stare at him with hatred as he turns to face me.

"My phone?" I question darkly. The man takes a few steps forward as do I. He holds up a knife with a cocky look.

I smirk and feel the energy rise in me as I will him to get slammed against the wall before dropping to the ground, unconscious. I step to him before digging in his pockets to find my phone.

"And I'm the little girl?" I smirk and walk out of the hall.

I dial the number to the first person to come to mind. I wait for him to pick up as I look around to make sure no other witch hunters wanted to try and fight me.

I sigh once he answers. "Aria?! Are you alright?"

"Jake." I state. "Where are you? I need your help."

He growls. "I know. I'm coming."

"Jake. Please, you have to be careful." I sigh and close my eyes. "I lo-"
