Dream Sequence:
"Emily. Dr. Owens?" A gruff voice emerged from the shadows.
Emily turned around to see who it was, but not before a fist collided with her cheekbone.
As she whimpered in pain, the man pinned her to the wall.
"Don't you remember me? I'm the patient that was in prison. I escaped about a week ago and I've looking for you."
Emily looked frightfully into the gray one's of her attacker and he answered "Yes, you."
As he through punches at her torso and started to squeeze her neck tighter, he began to make his intentions more clear.
"Ever since I went back to prison, all I could think about was you. How you walked around that hospital like the tease you are and how you wore your scrub top so low." He said, as he delivered a blow to her ear, causing the drum to burst.
"I'm a man that gets what he wants, and I'm going to have you, regardless if you want it or not." He growled as he pushed her dress up and ripped off her panties.
"Now, be a good girl, don't make any noise, and this will be over soon and no one will get hurt," he said as he pushed her down on the gravel.
"Please don't do this. Please, I'll do anything, don't hurt me," Emily begged as her rapist forced her legs apart.
Feeling the rapist bash her head into the gravel, so hard she saw God, he replied, "What the fuck did I just say, you stupid bitch? Say one more fucking word, and I swear I'll kill you. I'll kill you and I'll get away with it, I promise."
Between her legs, a blinding pain shot down her legs and up her spine that she blacked out. Forcefully thrusting into her, her rapist pulled her hair and whispered into her ear, "Open those eyes, you slut, I want to see you in pain, you fucking deserve it."
Opening her eyes, Emily tried to find her happy place. Trying to imagine that she was anywhere, anywhere, but here. Thinking back to her medical school graduation, she replayed that moment in her head repeatedly.
Walking across the stage, she gave her mentor, her gross anatomy professor a hug and accepted her diploma. She looked out into the crowd and smiled brightly. She did it. She graduated without going crazy. In a week and a half, she would be moving across the country to Colorado and would be a real doctor. She would be saving lives. As she looked behind her, she saw Will beaming at her. This moment would be the happiest moment of her life.
As a fist collided with her eye, she was snapped back to reality. The man on top of her was nearly done. As he came inside of her, he got up, zipped up his pants, and looked like he was going to walk away. Boy, was she wrong.
Turning around with a sinister smile on his face, he drew his leg back and kicked her sides. A sudden crunch told her that some ribs had been broken. And she screamed the pain, the man stepped on her ankle and arm and that was when the adrenaline set in. As her eyes glazed over, she began begging God to save her and she disappeared into the darkness.
End of Dream Sequence.
Will woke up to screaming. Terrifying, chill inducing screams that could wake the dead.
Looking over to his side, he saw Emily screaming into the darkness.
"Please don't hurt me! Please, I'll do anything, please!"
Trying to wake Emily up without hurting her, Will grabbed Emily's hand and tried to wake her.
"Em, I'm here. Wake up. It's just a bad dream, you're okay." Will said in a calm but terrified voice.
As she opened her eyes and give Will a tearful, panicked look, she started to sob and clung to Will's shirt for dear life.
