Can You See Me?

Letter from a Demon

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   I woke up on a hard cement ground with pain soaring through my entire body. I flutter my eyes open and cell bars fill my vision. I groan as I slowly lift myself up. Tyler sat in the same cell as he did last time but his body was now sitting upright playing with his fingers. His shirt is ripped and dry blood crust at the wounds.

   "Tyler?" He slowly turned his gaze towards me.

   "I'm so sorry. I tried to stop him he was just so strong. You almost made it to safety." He whispered as tears rolled down his dirty face.

   "Don't worry about it. We'll figure it out ok both of us can leave." I nod trying to reassure him.

   "He gashed my leg open Emily. I can't run you have to go alone and find mom." Before I could answer the sound of a door creaked open. I crawl to the corner of my cell where there isn't any light. Seth who I assumed walk down the small stairway and stood in the empty space.

   "Good morning children, lets try not to make the same mistake as last time shall we." He unlocked both of our cells and I quietly stand. 

   "Come on i dont have all day!" He roars. I quickly scurry past him and go to comfort Ty.

   "Everything is going to be ok. Everything gets better. I promise you have to believe in me. We'll get help someday. Someone will help us." I stroke his face.

   "Whatever happens to me happens and you have no control over it do you understand. I love you so much." I clung to his chest as he lightly sobs in my hair.

   "Alright times up." Seth locks my cell and worry fills Tyler's eyes. Seth walks towards us and grabs me by my arm.

   "Let her go!" He tries to get to his feet but Seth kicks the door closed.

   "TYLER!" I scream and try to rip away from Seth. His hand flies across my cheek forcing my to turn my head. I collect all the spit in my mouth and spit directly in his eye.

   "YOU STUPID BITCH!" He grabbed a fistful of my hair and dragged me out of the basement. I was slammed up against the wall with an Earth shattering crack as he slammed the door closed.

   "Youre just like your fucking mother." He growls as he forcefully holds my jaw making me whimper.

   "Please let us go. Y..you don't have to do this."

   "Yes i do it's the only way to get that bitch back. By torturing her lovely daughter." He pulled a knife out of his belt loop and dragged it across my collar bone until it bled. I screamed in pain and tried to wiggle from his grasp."

   "Wake up Emily! Wake up princess!" I continue to scream as Seth pressed the knife down harder.

   I was shaken violently as i jerked upright in bed. Christian stood next to the bed drenched in sweat in his grey sweatpants.

   "Emily are you ok?" I shake harder and harder not wanting to talk as the memory replays in my head. The door burst open and I let out a scream. 

   "Calm down it's only Tyler and Dustin." Chris stares at me worriedly. Tyler looks at my figure and instantly knew what the dream was about.

   "It was Seth wasn't it?" Tyler whispered. I nodded but then froze in horror. One piece of the memory flashed in my head and I quickly wobble off the bed and into the bathroom using everything as support. I looked at my collar bone and shakingly lift the rose locked. A barely noticeable white line ran across my collar and instantly begins to cry.
