Angelica didn't know where she was going, so she went to the woods. They always calmed her.

She ran into thorns and twisted her ankle but hardly noticed through the hot tears that ran down her cheeks. She fell and rolled down a hill and once she reached the bottom, she didn't get up.

"Why can't he see this is no way to treat me?" She buried her face in her hands.

She lifted her head and screamed in pain as she looked down to find a giant spider biting her leg. She screamed again with terror as her vision went fuzzy. Then everything blacked out.

----------------------------------------------

"It's a woman" Angelica heard a strange voice say. Then she heard many others gasp. She opened her eyes to find many fuzzy figures that eventually became more clear into men. Angelica screamed and scooted away.

"Where am I?!?!?" She yelled and kept her distance.

The men stared at her and came closer to her until they backed her against a wall. Angelica turned her face to make the distance greater but it didn't work for long. The men grabbed her and threw her in a wooden prison pit. Angelica backed up against the far wall and sobbed.

"Jack!" She wailed. She repeated his name over and over again, getting softer and more hopeless each time until she fell asleep.
