The Shadow

With dead eyes, Cami looked in front. Tears were sliding down from her eyes, her busted lip, her chopped hairs. Her bruised up face, all of this was screaming for help.

Soon, she receives a smack on her face. Her body was shivering a lot. With trembling hands, she touched the wall to get up but again received a kick on her stomach, earning a yelp.

Somehow, she stood up and looked at the person who was hitting her. She can't even ask for mercy, as she knew it's going to be worse.

She looked at the person carrying a baseball bat. And soon the sound of broken ribs can be heard. Blood was coming out of her mouth. She knew she is dying, and as her last words she whispered to her attacker, 'Thank you"
With this, she fell to the ground and closed her eyes.
