Hello! I'm back! I know it's only been a few days but people have been pestering me to update.

In this Chapter we find out how Riza's doing. I know it's short but at least it explains how she's fairing. Next Chapter will be longer. It's already 3 Microsoft Word pages long and I've only typed up the first part of it.

Chapter 6

One of those times you wish you'd never woken up

Pain. Cold. Numb. Frozen. Shivering.

These were the first things Riza Hawkeye was aware of upon regaining consciousness.

She moaned slightly. It felt like her head had been hit by a meat mallet. Then she remembered. It had.

She became aware, rather painfully, that she was lying on her left side. To relieve the pain she attempted to sit up only to discover that her shoulder was stuck to the ground.

She pried her amber eyes open. They adjusted quickly to the fairly dim lighting in the cold room she was in.

She turned her head slightly to look at the ground. She saw what was holding her to the ground. A frozen pool of red. It was her blood. She could tell from the fact that what she could see of her uniform had turned a deep purple and was, literally, frozen stiff.

Gently, she placed her right hand on the ground in front of her chest, closed her eyes and braced herself. She pushed up hard and ripped her shoulder free of its icy, bloody prison.

She hissed in pain, clutched her shoulder and went back down on her back.

She waited for the pain to recede. When it did she pushed herself upright, slowly, not wanting to overdo it.

Agony ripped through her skull as soon as she was upright. Her hands flew up to her head and clutched it. She completely ignored her painful, yet numb, left shoulder.

When the pain receded to a dull throb, she lowered her hands to the cold ground to hold her upright.

She opened her eyes again and glanced over at her aching shoulder. She saw a large gash in it where the uniform fabric was split and slashed open and soaked in blood. She was amazed she could use the arm at all.

She looked away from her shoulder and glanced around the room. She noticed that she was in some sort of cold room or freezer or something. When she saw what was hanging around the room, her eyes widened.

Just then, a metal door opened. Bright light flooded in and temporarily blinded Riza. The light cast across the room clearly illuminated Riza who was sitting about halfway between the back wall and the door.

She raised an arm to shield her eyes. She looked over at the door. A man was silhouetted in the frame.

"Ah, you're awake. Good," the man's bone chilling voice spoke. He stepped in and closed the door. "Thought I might have killed you and spoiled the fun."

Riza's eyes readjusted to the re-dimmed light. She gasped when she saw who was standing in the room with her.

"You!" she gasped "But I thought you were in prison! I was there when you were arrested!"

"Exactly," he stalked over to the half-frozen woman "I escaped and now I'm going to get my revenge."

The man bent down and pulled Riza to her feet by her uninjured arm. He then grasped her injured shoulder and placed just enough pressure on it to cause enough pain to make her body submissive. He then pushed her forward by the shoulder.

When he got her where he wanted her, he pressed hard into the gash and she collapsed to the ground. Her head rested on the ground and she clutched her arm to her.

She turned her head and glared at his back through pain-filled watery eyes as he did something on the table in front of him. She could hear the sound of metal hitting metal. Carefully, she pushed herself upright to sit on the lower half of her legs, never once taking her eyes off of her kidnapper. She continued to hold her arm close to her body.

The man turned around and flinched at the glare being directed at him. If looks could kill…

He chuckled and the glare intensified, it that was at all possible. He cleared his throat, coughed and stepped over to his hostage. He knelt down in front of the young woman and set down the set of chains he was carrying. He grasped Riza's wrists and pulled them out despite her attempts at fighting. Too much of her body was in a state of pins and needles to fight back properly.

The man wrapped the chains around her wrists and made sure that they were secure. He than stood up, grabbed the excess chain and pulled Riza to her feet. He hooked the loop in the chain onto a hook in a long line of hooks, some already occupied by other things, but not humans. She looked at the two hooks around her. The one in front was empty, but the one behind her had a pig carcass on it. She'd always hated pork, and now she had an even better reason to hate it.

"I'll leave you to get settled in," he said and left the room.

"Hey wait! Come b-aah!" Riza cried out as she tried to move after him, only to have the chains pull her back.

After a short, 5 second battle to keep her balance, which she lost, she slipped on the cold, frozen, slippery floor beneath her feet.

When she fell, the chains stopped her and caused all of her weight to work against her.

Pain raced up and down her arms. She hung there limply for a few minutes in the now much darker room, her wrists being forced to hold all of her weight.

When standing, there was enough chain to allow some slack, but when she fell all of that slack vanished. Her legs were bent slightly, her toes touched the ground and the tops of her boots barely grazed it.

As her head slumped forward and her eyes slid shut, her amber eyes went dull and a few tears escaped only to freeze the moment they dripped off of her face. Darkness claimed her once more as pain ripped through her entire body.
