Her P.O.V.:

I crawl into my bed and smile. This is the first time in a while that I have been able to sleep in my own bed. This is the first time I haven't been beat up.

I curl up and snuggle into my covers and pillow. I tense and pretand to be sleeping as someone walks into my room. My stomach does a flip, thinking its him agian.

I close my eyes tight as the person crawls into my bed. I tense up more as they put thier arm around me. I relax alittle, realizing it's just one of the boys. Just don't know which one.

I roll over to have a look at who it is and smile, seeing its the red head boy. Tala I think it was. He smiles at me back. Is this going to be my first friend?

"Its ok. I'll help to protect you." I hear him whisper and I look into his eyes and blink. "Why? It will get you punsihed, won't it?"

He laughs lightly. "They can beat me all they like. I won't let them hurt you, well I'll try my best." I smile at him and hug him. I don't think he is use to being hugged, because it took him a second to hug me back.

His P.O.V.:

I awoke to Tala leaving our room. I wounder what he's up to. I lie on my back looking at the ceiling. I listen and smile softly. No screaming tonight. Did Tala go and see that girl? If he gets caught he'll get punished badly. I don't understand why Tala helped her today. Does he know something I don't?

I close my eyes and try to fall back to sleep, but my mind drifts back to that girl. Why won't she get out of my head? I sit up in my bed and walk slowly to the door. I peek out to see if any of the guards are near. I don't see any so I slip out of my room and run quietly through the abbey halls.

I open a door that I hope leads to her room. I peer inside and see her and Tala on the bed. They are both sleeping and he has her in his arms. I feel weird looking at them. I walk over to the bed and crawl into the bed on the other side of her. I feel her stir and look at me. I see her smile and fall back to sleep. I smile for a second and then place a arm around her too.

If Tala was going to protect her I'll help him. She must be worth keeping safe if Tala came here to sleep by her. If we are caught in here we'll all be punished. I close my eyes and have the first good night sleep I've had in ages. I actually had a good dream.

Her P.O.V:

I awoke to someone shaking me awake and whispering. "Hurry, we're going to be late and punished if you don't hurry." I roll over and groan. I slowly get out of bed and look at Tala. I could have sworn that Kai was here last night as well. I think Kai was his name. I hurry up get dressed. Tala grasps my arm and races down the hallway. We almost other kids on our way.

We made it just as the trainer was walking in, so we didn't get in trouble. Tala and I were catching our breath and then stood at attention. Today we were running laps and working out. When we ran our laps I kept falling behind the boys and I'd have to run more laps. After we had to do Push Ups and I couldn't even do two. I got a slap across the face for that. Then we did crunches Those I kept up wit, but I was getting tired.

We had a fifteen minute lunch break and then went to weight lifting. I got another slap across the face for not being able to lift as much as the boys. I couldn't even lift it. After we did stretches and jumping jacks, which I did with no problem.

At supper, everyone was quite and tired. Tala and Kai kept looking at me and look at my plate and then at theirs They look at each other and then back at me. Tala leans over and whispers. "Eat up, we never know when are next good meal is." I nod and slowly picked at my food.

I look up as I hear Tala grunt and I tense feeling a hand on my shoulder and fear slowly crept up to my face. I blinked it away as I try to remain calm. He leans down and whispers in my ear. "I heard from your trainer that you are slacking in your work outs." He grabs me by my arm and I look at Tala and Kai, But they both have their heads down and I realized they can't do anything to save me from this man.

He takes me back in to his sleeping chambers and tosses me onto his bed. He Smiles at me as I sit up and look over at him. "Come here girl and undo my pants." I get of the bed and do what I am told. I unbutton his pants and unzips them him trembling hands. His pants fall down his legs. He smiles. "Now my boxers." I nod and slid his boxers off. He sits on the bed, grabbing my arsm and leading me over to the bed as well.

He looks down at me. "On your knees girl." I tense and gets on my knees, knowing what he is about to make me do. "Now place myself into your mouth." I slowly do what I am told. I close my eyes, trying not to gag as I put his manhood in my mouth. I hear him to tell me to start sucking and I do what I am told. I gagged and accidentally bit his manhood. It must of hurt because that next thing I knew was that he had picked me up and pushed me.

I stumbled to the cold, hard floor and looked up at him. I try to get up and make a run for it, but he garbs me and takes me back to his bed. He flips me over on to my stomach and pulls my pants and underwear off. I hear him sneer. I feel his hands on my shoulders as he rams himself into my asshole. I scream out in a loud cry of pain. I feel tears stream down my face and I close my eyes as he keeps ramming into me.

His P.O.V.:

Tala and I haven't seen that girl since supper. Boris probably beaten her again Tala and I just got to our training area and still no sign of her. He must of had done some thing really bad to her this time if she is missing practice.

I am finding it hard to keep my mind on training worrying about her. I look at Tala and he seems to having the same trouble as me. I try and focus on my training before I get in trouble. Hoping that she is still alive. What am I thinking. Of course she is still alive. If she wasn't we would know, right?

I skip lunch to go and search for her, but no luck in finding her. I hurry back to the training room before they notice I am missing and goes back to training.

Her P.O.V:

I wake up and feel the pain rushing back. I don't remember falling asleep. I must of passed out from the pain. I shiver feeling cold. My stomach growls, feeling hungry. I look around and notice I am no longer in his room, or mine for that matter. I am now in the dungeon. I heard that kids that are sent her sometimes starve to death or freeze to death.

I watch a guard walk past my cell and I curl up in the bed. Its a old mattress with some springs popping out and some blood stains on it, by the looks of it. I close my eyes and try and hope that this is all just a nightmare, but I know that wasn't going to happen. I don't know how long I've been here for. And I don't know what time of day it was.

I wonder why my mother agreed with Voltaire about sending me here. Does she really want me gone that badly? Do I really make her that unhappy? Does she knows what I go through with here?

I ball my hand into a fist and growls. I want out of here and out of here now. But I know that's not going to happen anytime soon. I sigh as I fall back to sleep.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

His P.O.V:

Its been a week and still no sign of her. Tala says I shouldn't worry to much. That she is fine and will be back soon. But I can't help but feel worried. But soon my mind was off of her and on the new thing that Boris and my grandfather wanted to show all of us.

It was a new blade. It was said to be very unstable and only the strongest would be able to control it. Once my eyes locked its gaze on the blade, I couldn't look away from it. I knew that I wanted it and wanted to be the one to control it. I heard Boris announce its name. It was black Dranzer. I smiled. I wanted this blade more then anything in the world and nothing will get in my way to get it.

I break out of my trance as Tala nudges me. Hes looking across the rows of boys and I follow his gaze. I see her. She looks like she hasn't been eating and her bruises were healing up. She is also staring at the blade. But instead of desire in her eyes, I see anger. She seems to hate this new blade.

Tala seems bored of it too. Can't they feel the power of the blade and how it would be awesome to blade with?

I press my hands against the glass as i go back to staring at the blade. I'll sneak out tonight and prove to everyone that I can handle that blade.

So that night, I walk out of my room, without waking Tala and sneak through the halls. I avoid all the guards and make my way to the room that holds the blade.

I smiled as I open the door to the room that's holding Black Dranzer. I walk over to it and reach out to touch it.

Someone yells out. "Kai! Noo! Don't do it!" But its too late. I had one hand on the blade and it reacted. It felt like it pulsed in my hand. I picked it up and smiled. I turn towards the person that tried to stop me. I notice it was her. I put the blade in my launcher and smirks. "How dare you try and stop me. I will be the best. But you must be punished for trying to stop me from getting what I want."

I don't even realize what I am saying. It feels as if the blade has taking control of me. Does that mean I am weak and letting the blade control me? I launch my blade at her and let out a chuckle.

She jumps out of the way and glares. "Kai knock it off and stop playing around. " I smirk and order the blade to attack her. She launches her blade at mine and calls it back and takes off running. I laugh and then realize why she ran.

The blade was gaining speed and sparking It spun into the holder that it was kept inside of and cut through some wires. Causing a small electrical fire. I start feeling drained and I pass out.

The next thing I knew, was that I was in Voltaire's mansion with a massive headache and not remembering anything that happened. I try to remember, but I groan as it hurts my head more.

Her P.O.V.:

I ran off as Black Dranzer started to act strange. I would of grabbed Kai and make him come with me but that blade would have attacked me. I ran in to the guards and two of the took me straight to Boris, but he didn't have a chance to have any fun with me because Voltaire told him to call my mother.

Does this mean I am going home? Voltaire takes my arm and rushes to his office. He tells me to stay put and leaves again Boris rushes in and smiles at me. I know what the smile means. He walks over to me and licks his lips. He never reaches me because Voltaire rushes in with a passed out Kai.

I gasp at the sight of him. Voltaire asks Boris if my mother was on her way and Boris replied yes. I smiled. I'm going home. I'll be free of this place.

I walk over to Kai and I thought I'd be pulled away from him, but I wasn't and I move a strand of hair from his face. I kiss his cheek lightly and sigh. This could be the last time I see Kai.
