What the fuck?
I could almost cry hearing Ember and Raven’s voices, but the commotion by the stall snags my focus. Piper is screaming my name, but it sounds so far away but I can see that she is standing less than two feet from me, her body flailing in midair. My mind is so fuzzy that I close my eyes and everything goes dark.
“God, please stop,” Piper screams, waking me up from my haze. I slowly blink taking everything in.
It’s pitch black throughout the space, minus where the door is. We are in my least favorite fucking room. I start to roll my head on the concrete to get movement in my body. My legs feel like paper weights, but I need to get myself moving. The sandbags that are my arms start to lift with maximum effort. Before I can get my left to extend all the way up, it goes limp and plops on to my bare belly.
I’M STILL NAKED?!
My fear and adrenaline start to course through me, giving my body energy to bolt upright. I try to take in the surroundings that I can see. Carson is standing halfway out the door staring down the hallway. Mel and Green Mask, Logan, are dragging a screaming Piper to the single bed. I turn my body slowly to get to my feet without alerting Carson when I notice the shredded clothes close to where my head was just at.
Fuck Piper!
“No, please,” Piper cries.
“Oh, you’re so pathetic Piper,” Mel laughs. “Trust me his dick is better than Beast’s.”
Alley, do something!
“I’m surprised you would even know Mel,” I smirk, using the wall to help me balance. “I figured your vagina was so stretched, you would need a roll of summer sausages to feel anything, and I bet Logan has a penis that would make a toothpick look monstrous. So, I highly doubt you know what he feels like.”
That for sure gets their attention and they leave Piper to come after me. I dart to the door. I need to create enough of a distraction so Piper can run. Maybe she can get to Nik or even Baron and they can stop this. As much as I hate them, I’d rather go up against them than these guys. Whatever they are planning is probably mild compared to what those four assholes would do, but still doesn’t mean I want to experience it.
Right when I step out of the door, I run into Carson knocking us both to the ground. He fists my hair to switch our positions, to him on top. I try to swing at him but he slams my head into the concrete. It just pisses me off so I slip my thumb underneath his eye patch and push down into the fleshy socket. He lost his eye after I rammed whatever was in that syringe into it. I’ll take it as a small victory considering what happened to Annie because of him.
We continue to wrestle for dominance when a gunshot rings through the hall. Turning our heads in the direction, it seems to be the new guard aiming it not at me but at Carson. I think his name is Mick?
“What the fuck is this,” he shouts as Carson crawls off me.
“Leave now,” Carson orders. Once he is fully off me, I run towards Mick. I grab his arm when I notice a yellow purge mask coming up from behind him. He tackles both of us to the concrete floor.
Fuck!
We hit the concrete hard and they start to fight each other for the gun. Now, I should try to help Mick and get rid of these two pricks, but I need to make sure I can get Piper clear of them first. As I crawl out from under the dog pile that Logan has joined, my hand is smashed into the floor by a very familiar boot.
“Where is it you think you are going, Alley Cat?” Carson is smiling down at me while twisting the heel of his boot in the center of my hand.
“Fuck you, Carlie,” I grind in pain.
“You are going to pay for what you have done,” he growls, leaning all his weight on that one foot.
“Do your worst then, eunuch,” I laugh.
Carson removes his boot and pulls me back up by my hair. I am wishing I had the scissors to cut my hair off again, but I haven’t been allowed around any sharp objects for quite some time.
Piper’s scream fills the hallway and all the struggling stops. I forgot that Mel was still in there with her. Mel may absolutely hate me, but I think she despises Piper. Since Nik cut her out and I would deny him anytime he tried, Piper has become his new number one.
I stupidly punch Carson in the face with my busted fist, and he immediately lets me go. I drop to the ground to grab the discarded walkie that I am seriously hoping is the one that Carson doesn’t have access to. That is if Vaughn was even telling the truth.
When I make it into the cell Melanie is on top of Piper and her back is to me. It’s too dark to see what is happening, so I go with my gut instinct to jump Mel. As I collide with her, the walkie springs from my hand and lands beside an almost unconscious Piper.
“You bitch,” Mel screeches as she faceplants on the concrete floor.
“You should be more creative with your name calling,” I cough, rolling on my back. She climbs on top of me and wraps her boney hands around my neck starting to squeeze. Now I know I can get her off of me and a mouse has more strength than she does, but I am just so damn tired. Plus might as well die now before they execute whatever they have planned.
Alley, you need them away from PIPER!!
GET UP AND FIGHT!!
