Author's Note: For the 7 deadly sins challenge on xoxLewrahxox's Bellatrix forum. Drabble is exactly 100 words. Sin used: pride. Please review. (Also, yes, I am aware that the title is an oxymoron. I did it on purpose.)

Forsaken
They wanted to see her suffer.
They wanted to see her fall.
They wanted to see her cry.
Tears of weakness, tears of defeat.
But she refused to give in to their wishes.
She stayed quiet, stared at the ceiling and didn't wince when they purposefully were too rough.
After it was over, she'd dress herself in silence, walk to the window and look out.
She could find her star instantaneously. It kept her going. She was a warrior.
She would not cry.
The star would not fall.
Her pride would not be striped away. And she would not suffer.
