I sat there my shirt torn into shreds and my hair matted and tangled, my wrists bruised and swollen from where the rope was early. My lower body throbbed and small bits of colored cloth laid around my legs, the cloth which use to be my colorful purple jeans that were torn off and shredded. My dry lips tasted like salt from the tears that poured down my face a time ago. My eyes were as red as the dry blood that lay beneath my fingernails from clawing at the skin of my kidnapper. My eyes stared at the cold wet floor I laid upon; my body had no effort to pull itself together to use my body heat to warm the rest of me. As I sat in the darkness of my cell, memories of my simple life flashed in my head like a film. Once they reached the moment when I was stolen off the street and taken to a world I knew only existed in my books and TV shows. I knew I was never going to see any more daylight and never have a family. As my memory came to the recent day I realized I'm never going to leave this place.
~The New beginning of the end~
Listening to the silence around, made me question if this strange place was a dream or if this place was death. My brain failed to tell me if were night or day; the only thing that told me the time of day was when I got fed. I got fed twice in the morning and in the evening, but the portions barely fed a small dog. My ribs stuck out of my pale and weak skin and my arms and legs looked like sticks. My entire body was covered in bruises and burns that was given to me about 3 times a day. And right now it was about the time I got what they thought was fun. I looked up as the bolt on the cell door slide open, and the door swung open with force and a black figure stood in the door way. I stared at the tall man with long, green hair and purple eyes as he walked in with a smirk spread across his thin face. He was known as a homunculus called Envy.
"Father wants to see you useless human." The man's smooth and strange voice said. "And if you try to escape I will make sure you pay for it in a punishment."
I just stared at him; and nodded ever so slowly then slowly pulled my legs close to me so I could slide my self up the wall to stand. I felt the Envy's purple cat-like eyes watched me as I stood up slowly and then looked him. He just rolled his eyes and walked out, I followed him making sure I was just the right amount of space away from him or I would be punished later. The walk to this man, Father consisted of a long, endless hallway then a turn to your right, through a set of doors, down the stairs and into the middle of the huge room. As I approached the chair that held this man known as Father, Envy stopped and shoved me in front of him. I stumbled and fell on to my knees then gasped as Envy grabs a wad of my dirty hair and pulled my head back. He pulled it back so I was looking up right into Father's face, which examined me as if I was a bug under a microscope. His cold eyes just glared at me as if I was a snake going to kill him; I moved my head trying to look away but I got a sharp pain that traveled through my hair from Envy pulling my head back toward Father's.
"Turn her around and pull off her shirt, she will be a great host for the stone." Father said stepping back
"S-Stone?" I barely shouted in my raspy voice.
Envy grinned and picked me up then threw me to the ground so my face was almost on the floor. I gasped as I felt my shirt being pulled off me so easily as if was old paper being torn in half. My eyes widen as I heard the sound of a blade being open behide me; Envy's small chuckles turned into loud snickers. Right then I felt the cold sting of the blade dig into my perfectly unmarked skin. I let out a small scream as I felt then blade drag down my entire back; more tears flowed from my swollen eyes. The warm liquid flowed from the cuts that were be craved into my back, the pain made me black out several times.
Envy's laughs rang through my ears as I sat through this pain, but as quickly as the pain started it ended. Tears continued to flow like the warm blood did off my back and on the floor beneath me. Pain still went through my body but once I felt a hand on my back the pain suddenly disappeared and my body just decided it was time drift into the darkness of my consciousness.
