Elaine wakes up in a bunker full of women or at least she believes they are, and hardly any room to breathe nor move around. She notices that everyone in here has the stripped uniforms, shaved heads and malnourished. The place reeked; it was the worst scent that she had ever smelt. "Is the place that Theo talked about?" She thought and then had wondered where he was. Before she could do anything the guards budge through everyone. Everyone looks petrified; Elaine confused and startled, one of guards grab her and forcefully shove her out of the room. The guard whispers in her ear in a threatening tone "Don't even think about fighting us because we will kill you without hesitation." The guard hits her stomach with the back of a rifle, she can't move as if she is paralyzed. The guard picks her up and straps her to a chair. Elaine had thought to herself "This is it I'm not going to make it." The guard pulls out to her a surprise an electric shaver he begins to shave her head and Elaine watches out of the corner of her eye her long locks of black hair. She had never realized how much her hair meant to her until it was gone. The guard releases her from the chair and makes her change into the the stripped uniform; she does as he says and then is escorted back to her bunk. "Elaine?" Someone calls her name she looks at the person who called her name, and Elaine takes a moment to figure out how they knew her. She had a moment of realization that was her close friend Sarah. "Sarah?!" Elaine shocked. Sarah looks around to make sure no one is watching her she hugs Elaine.
"Where are we? What is this place?" Elaine asked Sarah began to explain they were in Mauthausen camp in Germany. She proceeded to explain what happens in here.
"We don't get much food, and are beaten here. That's not the worst part they kill people too without reason." Sarah explains
"Why are they doing this to everyone?" Elaine asks in confusion
"Hitler believes we are the blame for everything; I don't understand it either I wish he never took over our country." Sarah expressed
"How did you get here? what camp did you come from?" Sarah asking
Elaine explains about how she disguised herself, and met Theo. She proceeds to tell her about the attack on poland, and was knocked out at her cave with Theo and brought here. Before Sarah and Elaine could talk more The guards came back and everyone started freaking out, and trying to protect each other. People in the first row were blocking everyone else in attempt that the guards wouldn't reach anyone else. The guards start dragging everyone out of the room one by one. "WHATS HAPPENING?!" Elaine yelled. "THIS HASN'T HAPPENED BEFORE NOT LIKE THIS."
