Enjoy! And review!!!!!!!

Maria laid strapped to the trolley, blinking in an attempt to help her eyes adjust to the bright white lights that shone down on her.

The five men in the white suits had left her alone for a few hours now; at least she thought it was a few hours. She had managed to finally control her shaking and sobbing.

Maria closed her eyes, wishing it all away, pushing one of her favourite memories into her mind. Her first kissed with Michael; it was so unexpected, yet so wonderful. It was usually painful dredging up these memories but at the moment it took her away from the horrors of this room.

The banging of the door snapped Maria out of her reverie. The unmistakably squeaking of trolley wheels echoed throughout the room.

Maria kept her eyes securely closed vainly trying to enter into her daydream again. "Miss Deluca" Maria that she could feel the hot breath - of Agent Duncan - against her cheek.

"Miss Deluca" he said again, "I think you will want to see this." Maria continued to ignore him, she just did not want to open her eyes and face what she knew was there.

A thump was heard followed by a groan of pain that was unmistakably Jesse's. That did the trick. Maria's eyes flew open and landed on Jesse, who lay next to her. Jesse turned to her and attempted a small smile.

"Hey Ria" Jesse said in a voice that was barely audible. Jesse had his shirt off and his body was covered in fresh bruisers.

Jesse opened his mouth to say something else, but Duncan cut him off.

"Now Miss Deluca, Jesse here is just going to be an example of what we are capable of. Wheel her over there." Duncan pointed to the spot right opposite Jesse.

"These here," Duncan said holding up a contraption, that looked like a head piece with little hooks,

"are to stop you from closing your eyes, I want you to watch everything." Duncan gave an evil little smirk as he descended upon Maria.

Maria tried to keep her eyes closed, she thrashed her head about, trying to shake them off, but it was no use, they managed to keep her head still and pry open her eyes.

The little hooks poked painfully into her eyelids and her eyes burned like hell.

"Everyone comfortable?" Duncan asked, a smile playing on his lips. It was obvious how much he was enjoying this.

"Dr. Stevens, if you may." One of the men in the whites suits can forward and placed a try of sharp looking instruments on a stand next to Jesse's bed. Jesse was trying to be brave for Maria, but she could see the small quivers that plagued his body.

"I'm sorry," Maria whispered to him. She couldn't do anything for him, just watch. Jesse looked at her, the fear evident in his eyes. He moved his lips and the smallest sound wafted over towards Maria. "Be strong."

Agent Duncan clapped his hands gleefully, "enough chit chatter and let's get on with it!"

He was acting like a little boy in a candy store. Maria looked at him with so much hatred that she had ever felt before,

"when I get out of here" she said in a dangerously low voice, "you will be sorry you ever laid hands on us."

Duncan strolled over, and lowered his face so it was only inches away from Maria's face,

"Oh I don't think so Miss Deluca. A miracle would be needed to get you out of here, and as we all know a miracle does not happen to scum of the earth people."

Maria spat right in his face, Duncan stood up and wiped it off, he struck out his hand, striking her cheek,

"do that again and I will put you in a far worse position than dear Jesse here"

With that said, Duncan turned around and with a slight nod to Dr Stevens moved towards the side. Dr Stevens picked up a cattle prod, "just for started" he said and moved towards Jesse.
