Later that day, or night, Dani was not sure which, Growler, who had taken a nap and left her alone, as the spider next to her was not very talkative, woke up and yawned loudly.
" So, wanna hear about your crush's sorry life?" he asked loudly, drawing the attention of a lot of creatures around them.
Dani blushed and hissed a, " Shut up!" at Growler, who just chuckled.
" Gotta let the whole gang know we've got us a princess over here." He said with a wink.
Dani glared at him, and he grinned cheekily at her.
Then a pale skinned, violet eyed boy nearby that Dani had not noticed before, spoke up.
" Are you really Dani Cullen?"
She spun around and saw that the boy was painfully thin, covered in scars and fresh wounds, and was missing an arm.
She nodded, feeling sorry for the poor boy.
His eyes lit up with hope.
The he turned around and whispered it to someone she could not see, and soon Growler slapped his paws on the cement floor loudly.
" Okay, now can I finally explain to our princess what the whole fuss is about?" he asked in a bored tone.
Silence greeted him, and he grinned.
" I thought so." He remarked, and looked at Dani, his smile slipping.
" It's not a pretty story." He warned her.
" I can take it. After all, what else do I have to do?" she replied.
The muskony's eyes looked moist. " That's my girl." He said softly.
Just as he was about to begin, the doors swung open.
Immediately everyone but Dani was on the ground, eyes closed, not making a sound.
She was the only one startled enough not to move.
Her dad's eyes lit on her at once, and he made a growling sound that carried across the room.
Instantly, dark forms rose out of the shadows and rushed to her, grabbing, pinching, and biting her.
Crying out, she tried to push them away, but the shadowy forms kept biting and pinching, getting in her hair and under her skin.
Then they picked her up and carried her towards her dad, the chains being bit through as the tiny things swarmed her, covering her body and eating her alive as they did so.
Dani screamed and thrashed, smacking at the pests, but it did no good till she heard her dad growl, " Enough."
The tiny things left her, and she found herself curled up at her dad's feet.
He stepped on her fingers, and ground them into the floor slowly.
" No, no please stop." Dani sobbed as her dad applied more and more pressure, and Dani cried louder, " Please, anything, stop!"
He laughed above her as one of her fingers broke, and she screamed.
" You will beg for this later on, weakling." He sneered as he grabbed her hair and dragged her away.
" Stay strong!" she heard Growler howl as she was dragged though the doors.
" He's going to pay for that." Her dad hissed, kicker her in the face, and drawing blood.
Dani groaned and clawed at the floor, trying to get a grip, but her dad would stomp on her fingers and break another every time she tried.
Finally, he entered a bright room, and dropped her on a mat on the floor, kicking her stomach as he did so and spitting on her.
Dani squeezed her eyes shut as her dad snapped at her to get up.
She slowly got up, still crying from her broken fingers.
Her dad grabbed her hands and bent her fingers back, making her scream louder.
" Just you wait baby, just you wait." He dad smirked, grabbing her jeans.
Dani kicked him in the chest then, and screamed, " I am NOT your baby! And I never was!"
Her dad, stumbled back a step, then a deadly look came over his face.
" You have no idea what you just did he growled, then attacked her, kicking, punching, and biting her everywhere, throwing her and puling out handful of hair.
" This is just the beginning." He breathed down her bloody neck. " You are dead meat."
