Again so sorry for not updating for a while, lucky for you all I have the next few chapters planned. Also this chapter is going to be considerably short. But since I had writers block recently, I wrote what I was able to, which was the chapter after this one.
We ran until we were in an alley, with no way out. We were cornered. I kind of have a hatred of alleyways, because I had been attacked so many times in them. This was bringing back bad memories.
~Flashback~
I was walking home from school, I had to separate from the group because we were so young, we were brought home by adults. I was taking the long way to the woods. I have no idea how I am able to slip away so easily!
I was halfway there, when I heard footsteps behind me. I was in an alleyway, all I needed to do was get to the wall, and jump it. When all my hopes were crushed.
"Where are you going girl? The group is a ways away from here." The voice said.
"Shit." I muttered.
"Such hideous language coming from such a pretty girl." It replied.
I turned around and saw the school bully standing in front of me. Matt. I hated this guy, but I was not allowed to hurt mortals. But then again… Chiron had never told us we could not warn them.
He punched me, before I could decide what to do. I could not defend myself, I was already tired from today and all the running I had done. I let him do it. Once he was done, he left. I ate some ambrosia and lived, but I was always weary of dead ends and alleyways from then on.
~End of Flashback~
I turned around only to see that the two guys had advanced further. One was in front of me the other Yali. I don't know what happened with Yali, but I do know it was similar to what happened to me.
The guy in front of me was obviously a son of Ares or Mars. He had curly brown hair, a creamy brown complexion, and golden eyes.
He started to force himself on me. When he kissed me, I beat his chest as hard as I could (not very hard in my state). I did not respond at all, but he kept going. I was trapped by now, I could not move at all, He had my body squeezed against his, I was scared. Next thing I knew he pushed me against a wall. My mouth opened a little at the impact, he took advantage of it.
I prayed to all the gods: If living means anything to you, please, please save me from this.
I have no idea how long it had been when he was pulled off of me, but my jacket was off and I had tears in my eyes. Who I saw was Noah and Lucas. Noah pulled me close to him, I started crying. He just picked me up bridal style, and carried me off towards our friends.
When he stopped he put me down, and sat on a couch. He pulled me into his lap and I cuddled close to him. I was still shaking with fear.
"Shh, it's alright, you're okay." He whispered things like this into my ear until I was able to calm down.
"Want to go dance?" He asked.
I shook my head, I was too scared.
"Hey nothing will happen to you ok? Those jerks are gone, plus ill be there to protect you okay?"
"Okay." I answered.
We got up and he guided me out onto the dance floor. As we were dancing I saw Yali with Lucas. She looked just like I knew I did. Everything was fine until broken by lund came on.
Broken~lund
Wil you end my pain?
Will you take my life?
Will you bleed me out?
Will you hang me out to dry?
Will you take my soul in the midnight rain?
While I'm falling apart
While I'm going
Will you end my pain?
Will you take my life?
Will you bleed me out?
Will you hang me out to dry?
Will you take my soul in the midnight rain?
While I'm falling apart
While I'm going insane
Most people are searching for happiness
They're looking for it
They're trying to find it in someone
Or something outside of themselves
That's a fundamental mistake
Happiness is something that you are
And it comes from the way you speak
Can you break my bones?
Will you tear my skin?
Can you taste my lust?
Can you feel my sin?
See, I'm a waste of life
I should just kill myself
Yeah, I could slit my wrists
But it really wouldn't help
Wouldn't fix my issues
Or change your mind
'Cause I broke your heart
And you buried mine
Now, I'm six feet deep
And I can't breathe
I got dirt in my eyes
And blood on my sleeves
But I dig my way up
Through these roots and leaves
So I can get some air
So I can finally breathe
And now I'm on my knees
Oh baby, begging please
Will you
Will you
Will you end my pain?
Will you take my life?
Will you bleed me out?
Will you hang me out to dry?
Will you take my soul in the midnight rain?
While I'm falling apart
While I'm going
Will you end my pain?
Will you take my life?
Will you bleed me out?
Will you hang me out to dry?
Will you take my soul in the midnight rain?
While I'm falling apart
While I'm going insane
We cannot choose the things that will happen to us
But we can choose the attitude we want to take
Towards anything that happens to us
Goodbye
And don't you miss me when I'm gone
Goodbye
'Cause you're the fucking reason that I'm not around
Goodbye
Don't you miss me when I'm, miss me when I'm gone
Goodbye
'Cause you're the fucking reason that I'm not around
Fucking reason that I'm not around
Bitch, you're the fucking reason that I'm not around
When that guy attacked me this is what I was feeling.
After it ended I screamed in pain, and fell to the ground.
Hope you guys enjoyed!
