Chapter 4: Sometimes it feels right

"What the Hell?" I muttered, emotions filled me, fear, anger, sadness. The memories came before me before I could speak again, I screamed in pain, feeling the punches he gave me, the abuse.

"That was your own weakness, fear and not able to control what you feel when you experience the pain in your life, and seeing the pain of others, your visions brought forth, to see what happens how you got hurt or someone else" That snarky voice, I hated it. I clenched my teeth in anger, as the memories faded and past through me quick,"Screw you Tanner..." I threw my bag to the ground and got into a fighting stance.

About to use the military experience I had when I was nine till I was sixteen, seventeen now and I haven't used the fighting experience for two years. I knew I was out of my game, Tanner laughed "You think you can beat me up?"

"Shut up! Why are you here!?" I questioned in fear and anger, "Well what do you think Elena, I followed you, don't you remember when you were seven, that needle that was put into your neck, it was a tracking chip" My eyes widened, "Then there's others coming!?"

"No, the people at the military base forgotten all about you and Julia, I just tracked you, and I was walking over there by the stream and then I saw you, I just came what I wanted" I shook in fear "And what's that?..." "What you wouldn't give me!"

I glared "Are you flipping serious!? Tanner we were only fifteen! Did you really think I would have sex with you?"

"Sometimes, and I did imagine snapping that pretty little neck of yours after that" I laughed mockingly "Your one sick asshole..." He was Dangerous and beyond crazy, Before thinking, I did a high kick maneuver, which was a stupid reckless move, which he caught and slammed me to the ground. I whimpered at the pain on my shoulder, since he threw me with such force, and I landed hip and shoulder first. And he punched my side of the forehead.

"You were a great fighter Lena, fast, smart, that's why you were experimented on, to make you with bioengineered abilities, but as I can see, you are weak" I stood up holding my side, and yelled as I was about to punch him, he took my hand and twisted it, I shrieked in pain as I stumbled to the ground.

I looked as he took my neck and slammed me against to a blouder. As I whimpered, I felt such impact on my head and fell to the ground. Touching my head and looking down at my hand, it was red, my head was bleeding. My vision blurred from the impact. I saw Tanner walk away, he wanted to leave me for dead. In my blurred vision, was a bag, I remember, rope darts.

I sucked in a breath as I painfully tried to reach for it, but I felt his strong hands grip my neck again, and I started gasping for air, starting to blackout. I felt to my side a rock and slammed it on his head. As I did that he yelled in pain, and I kept on bashing his head and stopped seeing more blood, I backed away dizzy as I reached my bag and grabbed my rope dart and hid behind a tree, I felt him stumbled against it.

"Your gonna die Lena!" He yelled, I could tell he was disoriented as well, he reached for what looked like a hunting knife as he caught sight of me, I did not hesitate as I wrapped the rope dart around his neck and pulled him to the tree and held my grip as I quickly wrapped part of the rope on a tree his neck still attached by the dart.

I heard him gagging and gasping for air. It went on for another 2 minutes, till everything went still and quiet, I let go of the rope and felt his body go limp, as I looked through my blurred vision, he was laying on the ground, lifeless.

"O-oh my god..." I stuttered as I sank to my knees "I k-killed him..." This was a big deal, I promised myself I would never kill anyone, but he was trying to kill me. I trembled as I picked up my wolf skin bag, and wobbled down the path, back to the village.

But it hurt too much, my hip, head and shoulder. I felt weak, tired and my head I could tell was still bleeding. And I fell to my knees as I leaned by a tree, still shaking and I spit out some blood when Tanner punched me in the face. He was sick and twisted, he only came here to crave what he desired; myself and to kill. I closed my eyes and hoped this madness ended.

Meanwhile~ Ape Village, Blue Eyes Point of view

I was walking in a bad mood, due to what happened to the hunt. Now I winced every time I moved my arm a certain way, which contained opened wounds, that were claw marks. Though I was eager to see Lena, my Lena...

I loved her personality, stubborn, overprotective, ambitious, and...she did have a bad mouth sometimes and always made sassy remarks, but it made me laugh. I kept my feelings secret, I knew we wouldn't be together. Though it's been two hours, and I'm sure she should've been back.

To my surprise she was still gone, I found the hut empty and looked around eagerly. Julia ran to me panicked and communicated quickly "Lena, Lena she's missing, she's been gone way too long!" That got my attention, I told Julia to not worry, and that I'll find Lena.

My father decided to come with me as we mounted my horses and hurried down the path Lena always took. I wanted her safe, I wanted her with me.

Back to Lena~ In the middle of the forest, Lena's Point of view

My eyes fluttered open, to the sound of someone screaming my name, it hurt my head. I slumped to the ground as I put my arms around my shoulders, letting the rain fall on me. I was too much in pain.

I saw movement, what looked like horses and two apes "B-Blue..." My voice cracked, my neck still sore. I saw the blur of him run to me "Elena..my Elena" He whispered, probably horrified as he saw the blood on me, I felt him pick me up as he mounted back on his horse. It hurt my body, it ached as he speed the horse to pick up pace.

Before I blacked out, I heard so many voices as I kept my eyes closed shut, whimpering.

"For Christ's sake help her!"

"Will she be okay?"

"Stay with me my Elena!"

"Get her to healing!"

I drifted to consciousness. Before hearing more voices and cries.

2 days Later~

Pain, is all I felt as I awoken up. My head hurt, though I slowly opened my eyes and looked around, I sat up and sucked in my breath as I felt so much pain flow through me "Shit!" My voice sounded terrible, and took it in as I took off what looked like a blanket and felt my feet on the floor. I rubbed my eyes and I took a look at a small mirror that was on the floor near my bag.

Damn, did I look terrible, the left side of my face was bruised and my forehead had a bandage and my neck had bruised hand marks, my eyes were a blood shot red, and my lips were dry and cracked. Even though I looked like this it wouldn't last for long.

I then occurred all the memories flow through me of what happened, Jesus...I killed Tanner. I tried to not let it bother me but one vision did, the one of a tracking chip?

Tracking chip!

I groaned in pain as I got out of the bed and pulled open the vine curtain, everyone stopped and looked at me. I saw Ceaser, who was sharpening his staff with a knife. I stumbled to him and grabbed the knife, he screeched in surprise and I backed away from him.

I cut a small wound on my lower neck and pushed up and felt a very small object. I looked and it was the size of my finger nail, it was black and was flashing. I took the nearest rock and destroyed the tracking chip.

Everyone looked so startled of what I did as I gripped the ground, taking in shaking breaths "Lena!" I turned and saw Julia run to me "What do you think your doing? You can't be out of bed! And oh my god..." her face changed from stern to relief "Your awake!"

I whispered "Tracking chip, l-lower n-neck!" My throat hurt, Julia's Eyes went wide as she moved her thick, curled, amber blond hair and I cut a small wound on her lower neck and destroyed the chip. She turned around frantic "They found us? Didn't they? That's what happened to you, they attacked you?"

I shook my head and began to sign since my throat was sore "No, they forgotten all about us, it was Tanner who found me walking in the path, and he wanted to do stuff to me and then kill me..." Julia gasped "Oh my god, where is he?" I looked up at her with no emotion "Dead, I killed Him..." Julia breathed a sigh, "At least you defended yourself from him, but I should've been there to protect you..."I chuckled slightly "You would've gotten hurt worse, but this bugs me, I promised myself I would never kill, and plus you hate violence anyways" I looked down, and Julia led me back to the hut and saw Blue Eyes and Ash there. They must of walked in here before they saw what I did in the main center of the village.

"And she's awake! Welcome back Lena Beana!" I laughed a little as I looked down, and glanced at Ash "Nice to see you too!" I glanced at Blue Eyes and whispered "Thank you...for looking for me..." My feelings after what he done have begun to grow for him, but I was still afraid to be hurt again. I saw Ceaser walk in "I'm glad your awake, but why did you do that?" He meant why I cut the lower part of my neck "It was a tracking chip, my ex found me and" I looked away "I killed him, he was gonna kill me, and If I didn't kill him, he would've came here, and don't worry no one else will come, and I'm sorry I worried you guys" He smiled "Don't threat about it, we're all glad your safe" Ceaser then walked out, I sat on the floor of the comfy bed with Ash, Julia and Blue Eyes.

I changed my mind about letting my guard down, I had to keep it up at all times now. I turned my head to get a full look at blue eyes and my eyes widened "Holy Crap, Blue Eyes what happened!" he had three slash marks, one on his face and two on his left arm across his chest, they looked fresh. How did I not noticed this, without even thinking I touched one of his scars and I flinched back.

It was a bear attack, he was crouched in fear, and pain took over his left side in the vision. Blue Eyes looked at me curiously "It was an bear attack?" I asked. Him, And Ash looked astonished "Yes, how did you do that?" I breathed in a laugh "One of my abilities, which was from a drug that was put in my when I was committed back at the place where Julia and I came from, that's all I can say".

So on Ash and Julia left, smiling adoringly at each other as they walked out, Blue Eyes looked at me since he stayed "You feeling a bit better" I nodded "Yeah, and I still feel like crap at the same time" He Laughed, by god I loved his laugh, it was deep "Elena?" he spoke softly, I hummed at him, as I looked.

He laid his hand on my cheek, and leaned forward, his lips pressed against mine gently, I always imagined what kissing him would be like, but then I got the memories flow through me like whiplash, I unkissed and I shoved him away.

There was hurt and confusion in his eyes, and I turned around, bringing my legs to my chest as I hugged them "I-I'm sorry" I whispered, I got the memories of when Tanner and I had our first kiss, then when he tried to have sex with me, then the abuse. I was so afraid the same would happen with Blue Eyes, I heard him walk out, and then I laid against the hut wall.

I touched my lips, where he kissed me, it was amazing, I loved it.

And I loved him.

Stay tuned for Chapter 5!
