In the movies, your scary little horror flicks, the girl faces morbid gradual possession. She is sighted and chosen as the weakest link, and from there, she shall be gradually, disgustingly consumed by something... OTHER. Something that is wrong and hateful and foreign. But in the movies, she will be cartoonishly strapped to a bed. She will unfurl violent obscenities, curse all that is holy and demand the desolation of good. And the resolution of the movie will always be one of two things: She will be cured of such affliction, all her wrongdoings will have been repented for. And her life will again be calmed to an easy normality so she might forget the horror of her demons. Or- she will die. She will have been an unsettling tragedy for media and paranormal investigation. But what is the alternative? Warning: At times this story is fairly graphic, and it contains references to the Bible. There is no offense intended- as this is no more than a story. But, either way, like most horror movies this is the equivalent of an R rated film.

In a dystopian world, where the strongest prevails, having peace is a luxury. Especially when someone from the past is out to destroy everything we have built up over the past 15 years. And with Christmas approaching, our group get to face ten hellish days. Preview: In his fury, the chains have rubbed his wrists and neck raw, despite me trying to calm him down. He suddenly calms down when the screams in the cell next to us switch to the sound of bones breaking. Now he sits with foam on his lips and his eyes wide, looking that way. After ten minutes, the sounds of the boys in our cell have died down, and we all look at the wall that separates us from the crackling of the breaking bones. And then suddenly all is quiet. After a few silent minutes, our cell door opens slowly. From the ball of light from the ceiling, the little girl in the doorway is illuminated. She is completely covered in blood and doesn't move. Then she opens her eyes and carefully walks towards us. And despite everything, my first impulse is to crawl backwards, away from the unnatural calm radiating from her. ------------- After reading yet another great older brothers/younger sister story, where the family gets reunited after years of separation, the sister keeps the secret that she was abused and assaulted all along, and the brothers conceal their work in the mafia, I decided to give it also a try. The output of my story was initially to turn this around with openness and unconditional support and the torture should happen right in front of their very eyes. Because no story is complete without the (un)necessary bloodshed, action, humour and, of course, a bad guy. And who knows, to throw everything completely upside down, the main character may not survive. I won't write warnings above each chapter, because most of them contain violence, blood, torture, etc. Constructive criticism is welcome. Ow, and English is not my first, second or third language. So if I mess up somewhere, let me know!
