Blake's Mansion

She relaxed her hand and watched it fall limply on the cold concrete floor. The dark red colour of her own blood trickled down her porcelain coloured skin. She raised her head from the floor to look at her bloodstained dress. A sarcastic smile curved her lips as her eyes became watery with unshed tears. It was over.

Over.

She should give up. Why was she trying to stay alive? She was only fooling herself.

She rested her cheek against the cold concrete again. A warm tear left her eye and traced itself over her bruised cheek before it ended up on the floor next to her face.

She didn't want to die. It was too soon. She was still too young. She had had so many dreams. So many wants, so many needs…. Another tear left her eye.

Inara's shuttle

'Nara? Why is your door locked?' Inara heard Kaylee's voice ask. Inara shot up from her sitting position on her bed. She had been shouting and calling for what felt like hours now.

'Kaylee? Kaylee!" Inara said quickly as she ran towards her door. 'There is something wrong with the electricity. Can you please go and do something about it as quickly as possible?' She urged.

'With the electricity but-' Kaylee began. She had checked Serenity hours ago. There couldn't be anything wrong.

'Kaylee please, questions later. It's urgent!'

'Well, okay.' Kaylee said as she left.

'Kaylee?' Inara asked. 'Is the rest- Are they...?' Inara began. She dreaded the answer.

'Yes, they went to get Sivella. Didn't you know?'

'No, everything fell out.' Inara explained quickly.

'Don't worry 'Nara, I'm sure the captain will get her back safely.' Kaylee said, trying to comfort her friend.

Inara sighed. She wasn't so sure of that.

Blake's Mansion

Please let me die. She had never been the person to just give up. But it seemed like this time there was no better way out. How much blood did she have to loose before she would die?

The truth was that she would be better off dead. If Rogan and Blake would come back they would… He would be so furious that there was no telling in what he would do to her. She would rather not be here anymore. She couldn't hold on. She couldn't resist anymore.

She revelled in the feeling that she had managed to fool them once again. That was probably the last time. She had sent them to the wrong place. She had told them where Mary and David were and they had fallen for it, they thought that they were so smart. It was a good thing that they had underestimated her. But what good did it bring? She wouldn't be able to go through their next torturing methods.

She couldn't take it anymore. She coughed. Everything hurt. She wished she would stop breathing. She would break if they would do anything more to her. And then she would tell… She knew that they would kill her anyway so dying without them knowing what they wanted to know, gave her something nice to die for.

Please spare me from any more pain….

Inara's shuttle

Inara had lighted all of her candles to give herself some light in the darkness. She clenched her fists. Sivella… She couldn't bare to loose her too. Please.. Not Sivella… She felt so helpless! Being locked in her own shuttle! How was this possible?!

If only Kaylee got her out of here as soon as possible. Inara's eye fell on the screwdriver that she had put on her bed. It hadn't helped. She had tried for the past hour to get out of here but the door was too strong. She took the screwdriver again and walked to the door. She jammed it angrily into the side of the door. It didn't budge.

She wanted to shout and scream, she wanted to break this door down! She hated feeling helpless like this! She dropped the screwdriver as hot tears left her eyes slowly. She let her body fall against the door limply and lowered herself slowly until she sat on the ground.

Blake's Mansion

Sivella had already looked around the room she was held in but she couldn't find anything with what she could end her own life.

If they would stay away long enough then she would bleed to death. Maybe she would loose conscioussness and they wouldn't be able to wake her up anymore. That would be good.

She felt her energy seeping away quickly now. She could have never thought that she would ever want herself to bleed to death. But then again, sometimes things never went the way you wanted them to go in life. She had learned that so many times now.

She should relax. She closed her eyes and imagined herself on the beach. She wore a white gown that blew around her in the soft, warm wind. She was healthy and happy.

Sivella smiled. She could imagine everything she wanted. And she could only hope darkness would come quickly…

Blake's Mansion

Mal walked down the hall quickly followed by Jayne and Zoe. They were dressed like poor farmers. There was no one inside hall where only the servants were allowed to enter. He was beginning to think that it had been a good idea to dress up like farmers who came with supplies. He opened the door to the kitchen and when he got around the corner he froze in his steps. Zoe almost bumped into him when she too stared into ten heavy weapons that were aimed at them.

'Shit.' Jayne muttered from behind them as his mouth fell open.

Not such a good plan after all. Mal thought sarcastic.

Inara's shuttle

'Kaylee! Kaylee are you ready?!' Inara shouted.

No answer.

Inara walked away from the door in the dark. She couldn't bear being here when everyone was gone. How could this have happened? She didn't understand. And why hadn't anyone come to get her to come with them- A thought suddenly hit her. No, it couldn't be… She refused to believe that, they wouldn't… He wouldn't… Would he? No he wouldn't…

Blake's Mansion

She heard footsteps behind her. Sivella turned in the sand, she was on her bare feet. She could feel the sun shining warm on her body. Giving her energy. Footsteps on concrete, coming her way, quickly. She couldn't see anyone on the beach. She shot up in shock out of her meditation instantly when her door slammed open. She was still lying on the ground as she looked up at a masked man. She was too weak to get up. To defend herself. And then she noticed the very large gun that was aimed at her head between her eyes. She looked at the barrel of the gun and forgot all her pain instantly.
