A/N: Alright so, this chapter has violence in it (Beatings) I'm getting into the groove of writing now XD Each chapter will have 1000+ words and a new chapter will be posted every day, maybe 2 a day, please R+R, byee! ^^
Nepeta shoved her hands in her pockets after saying goodbye to Terezi and Feferi and slowly made her way to the park. Every step she took her heart sank a little more. She dreaded the thought of another beating. She pulled her sleeve up to look at her older bruises and scars. Purple and black splodges had been dotted around her body, along with some long red scars. She quickly pulled her sleeves back down incase someone saw. No one knew, no one knew apart from Nepeta, Vriska and her gang. Their faces had never been shown, Vriska was the only unmasked one there. She could make out 3 male voices and 2 female. Gamzee, Karkat and Eridan would not go, Feferi and Terezi would be suspicious otherwise. Instead they stayed at home and did god knows what. And frankly, Nepeta couldn't give less of a shit about them. She coudln't believe anyone would want to be friends with that cow. Nepeta arrived at the park, luckily, Vriska and her gang weren't there yet, she sat down on a swing and closed her eyes, wanting it to be over already.
10 minutes had passed and Vriska still hadn't arrived, Nepeta checked her phone in case of any change. Nothing. She sighed and got up when suddenly a foot hit her chest and sent her falling to the ground, clumisly hitting her head on the swing.
"Where do you thing YOU'RE going, I 'ain't done with you"
Nepeta looked up to see Vriska smirking, foot on Nepeta's chest. Vriska dug her heel into Nepeta's stomach. Nepeta winced but said nothing. Vriska grabbed her throat and picked her up, she slowly... ever so slowly tightened her grip, leaving Nepeta to struggle and flail. Vriska pushed her arm forward slamming Nepeta into the now broken brick wall. Vriska dropped her and stood back.
"Don't move" Vriska ordered and walked over to join her gang.
Nepeta rubbed her head, tears forming in her eyes, she quickly wiped them away as she was a masked figure walking towards her.
"Get up"
Nepeta struggled to her feet, she felt useless, pathetic.
"Over there" He jerked his head to an open part of the park.
Nepeta glared slightly and made her way to where he had said. She shoved her hands in her pockets and watched through her messy hair and the gang began to form a circle around her. Nepeta took quiet shaky breaths but kept her eyes on Vriska. Nepeta was weak, no muscle what so ever, if she could fight back, she would. She had dreamt countless nights where she had beat the shit out of Vriska and her group single-handed. Of cause, they were only dreams. She was taken back as a fist slammed up into her jaw, another in her stomach, another in her jaw, another in her stomach. Nepeta fell backwards and smashed her head on the hard, rocky ground. A foot crashed down onto her face, a few others joined in, kicking Nepeta in her face, neck, stomach and legs. Many more bruises were added, none on her face, they were careful to not put any visible while Nepeta was wearing clothes. She was bleeding from her mouth as it began to roll down her cheek and formed puddles on the floor. A hand grabbed her arm and yanked her up, Nepeta let out a grumble as she came face to face with Vriska. Vriska shot her head forward hitting Nepeta between her eyes. Nepeta cursed under her breath and took a step back, and another, and another. She turned to run but something blocked her way. She looked up to see another masked figure grinning down at her. He raised his hand and sent it crashing down onto Nepeta's head, she fell backwards and as she hit the floor, everything turned black.
Nepeta opened her eyes, she was dreaming... She looked around, black, everywhere, black. Nepeta stumbled to her feet, all her bruises and scars, were gone. She was wearing her trademark olive trench coat. She looked around again, a bright white light had appeared. Nepeta's face lit up and she began to run towards it. "Please, let this be over with" Nepeta repeated as she drew near to the light. She jumped and reality hit her. She opened her eyes and looked around, one masked figure was sitting on the bench looking at her.
"You're awake" He stood up and grabbed her, pulling her up also. Her cuts and bruises stung. "I was told to take you home"
"I-I can t-take myself h-home" Nepeta tried her best to say it confidently.
"Whatever. I have to walk the same way" He started to walk out of the park and Nepeta quickly followed.
They didn't make much conversation on the way back to their houses except he apologised and he explained that Vriska was bullying him as well, so if he tried to leave the gang, Vriska would hurt him too. He pulled his mask off and shook his head. Messy black hair covered his face, he waved and began to jog back to his house. Nepeta fumbled around in her bag in search of her keys. She grabbed them and shoved them in the keyhole, eager to get inside. Nepeta made her way into the house and locked the door behind her. She remembered a quick way to get rid of bruises, she opened the cupboard and looked for the ingredients. After about 5 minutes, Nepeta poured the mixture onto her bruises and scars. She hissed in pain as the mixture seeped into an open cut. Nepeta laid her arm out on the table and looked at her phone. She clicked the pesterchum icon to see who was talking to her.

Nepeta rested her head on the table and sighed she looked up to see Gamzee sitting on her kitchen counter.
