He brought his weapon up ready to strike me again. I was screaming in desperation for him to stop but he never did. WHAM, the iron rod smashed into my back making me scream which could of penetrated any one's ear drums. He dropped the weapon and stalked out the room while I convulsed violently on the floor with pain. He came back in carrying another object 'Great', he smiled evilly at me. I saw the weapon he was holding, it was massive it was like one of those knife's which people use to carve animals with, I gulped, not sure of what will happen next. It was even more agonizingly painful then the first spot of torture as he started to carve something in my skin, very expertly like he'd done it before. 'THE BASTARD' I screamed mentally in my head.
When he had finished his spot of 'fun' I couldn't fell anything, only numbness which I was thankful before. He walked away when he seemed to realize it wasn't affecting me as so profoundly as before, probably gone to find a new weapon. I didn't give him the chance I pushed myself with all my will-power to get up off the floor, my first step was wobbly but I soon regained my balance and started staggering out the back door. Before I reached it I grabbed my coat and Chantal's eagerly and taking a step out of the house never glancing back. Half an hour later, I had found Chantal who after much searching stayed close by in the local park knowing I would get her later. I slouched up towards her. When she saw me and the terrifying state I was in she started crying and came over and gave me hug careful of my tender back.
"Sshhh, its ok Chan everything's going to be all right" I comforted her.
"B…but you're really…really hurt gabs" she whimpered back to me.
"No…I'll be fine. It's just a lit-"
Whoosh, I came out of the dream as fast as I went in. I was sat up again; staring around for the sister I knew wasn't here. But instead were Thierry, Thea and Quinn who were all staring at me. I mentally cursed myself again I'd only been unconscious for at least 5 minutes even though it felt like hours.
"Are you ok? What happened just then? Cuse we didn't know at all" asked Thea.
"I'm fine, just something id wish I never had to remember" I shakily replied.
"To be honest Gabbie, you're a complete mystery to us. We don't know anything about you…yet you know lots about us even though were supposed to be a secret society…who are you" said Thierry.
Well he asked for it, I know I can trust them, but there gunner got a lot more information about me now, which honestly is fucking emotional. Urgh, emotions I hate them.
"I'm just someone who has had a fucking crap life. Looking after me self and…and Chan" I gulped. "Never trusting anyone, never staying in one place at a time and always prepared for the worst…I'm someone who has had to live with what I've done but proud for it at the same time" I ended my speech. I looked up, and saw that they were looking down at me, in a kind of way which I've never seen before. It freaked me out; I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and then opened them again. Thea started to walk up to me probably to come and comfort me again, but decided against it and went to stand with Thierry.
"I wouldn't say your life is rubbish it sounds like you got something to live fo-"Thierry started
"Yes…Yes I have. I have to protect Chan and look after her no matter what" I interrupted him.
"Ok…OK. You do…but who is this Chan person you keep referring to"
"Oh my god…she's my 13 year old sister…I can hear her bu-"I started off.
"What the fuck. Did you just say you can hear her? HOW?" Quinn screamed at me. As well as getting some very evil glares coming from the other two, I started to do something I've only done once before.
I frowned in frustration, but knew it when I touched Quinn's mind with mine that it had worked. I stared at him, 'like this' I sent the message into his mind. So he would know I wasn't speaking, he fell to the ground gasping for air.
"Ok…Ok. But…your Hu...man. Ho…W…did you…do that? He said while gasping for breath.
"I was born like it" well what else could I say. Honestly I don't know what I do most of the fucking time, there's just too much. While Quinn was having his random spas attack cussing inappropriate words trying to make himself believe that what I did can't happen in life, Thea and Thierry were in hushed conversations with each other. I ignored them all; I tried searching for Chantal again.
I could hear whispers; it was like listening to someone on the phone who had bad signal. It was horrible, not the fact I was hearing her but the fact I didn't understand what she was saying. It aggravated me even more, that I didn't know how she was, or even if she was safe and not harmed.
I came back to reality even though it was something I didn't want to do, but had to. Quinn was no longer cussing out loud but had joined the conversation which Thea and Thierry were having. Well…if they're going to ignore me I might as well go to sleep as I was barley fighting consciousness anyway, the only thing holding me together was the fact I didn't want to revisit my past again. But you can never fight nature so I gradually slipped away.
Quinn Pov:
God, that girl had power. What did she just do to me? It was like she had power over my mind and could invade it when she wanted, weird. I got up slowly just in case she would through some other random mind thing at me, she didn't. Gabbie or whoever she was, was in deep thought and was frowning at something, I had no clue what. I staggered over to Thea and Thierry who were both in conversation just low enough for Gabbie not to hear.
"What's up" I whispered behind them, they turned around immediately.
"What happened just then" they both asked in unison, not bothering to answer my question. I sighed, and told them about the thing I just experienced
"…and yeh it was definitely weird" I finally concluded. They were both staring at me in confusion as well as fascination about what this young girl could do.
"Maybe…well if she can do that…she might be a lost witch" but I knew that wasn't it otherwise we would of sensed it.
"Quinn she isn't a lost witch, but she is definitely something…" Thea said, while letting the end of that sentence not finish. I looked at Thea, but she wasn't paying attention anymore. She was watching the sleeping figure on the bed intently, and then sighed.
"She's a young girl who sound as if she has had a troubled life whatever that means" Thierry started "And yes she does seem unique in a way, so we will have her watched constantly while she is resting" he stared at the peace full figure in front of him as well. Then turned on his heal to face me.
"Quinn…wakes Rashel she's going on guard duty first" he said, while grinning insanely. I groaned out loud, this was not good. Waking Rashel up was always a dangerous business; she would through hissy fits then start kicking and abusing you. I gave Thierry a massive glare then stalked out of the room, to wake my lovely violent soul mate up.
When walking to my room, I finally realised most of the house were awake probably woken up by that massive scream Gabbie let out. I sighed, just hopping that Rashel had got woken up as well. I got to my door, 1…2…3 I opened the door. Yes, she was awake.
"Rashel…you've got to go on guard duty to watch over that girl we brought in yesterday" I said sweetly. She groaned and came over to give me a massive hug, I hugged her back resting my chin on her head.
"Ok I'll go…is she still in the same room" she whispered into my chest. All I did was nod and she left, giving me a kiss on the cheek. I grinned, finally I could get some sleep, I almost ran over to the bed ripped the covers off and jumped in. Piece finally, and fell into a comfortable sleep.
