Jo woke up to extremely loud barking, her extra strong senses making it more painful than it would be for normal people. She tried to cuddle further into Meg,
but her arms were surprisingly empty. Meg would usually wait until she woke up to get out of bed...
'Maybe she's trying to control that fucking mistake of a dog...' Jo thought,
definitely starting to regret being nice and giving into her caring side for once. Grunting loudly, the red-eyed girl slowly got out of bed to see what the mutt wanted.
'I told Kyohei to watch it until Amy and Sei came back... why can't the pansy do his job for once?'
Reaching the the open door, she immediately froze.
XXX The scary looking man towered over her, making Jo instantly try to shrink back into her tiny, skinny body. Her hair was matted and dirty, it looked like she hadn't eaten in days, maybe weeks. The man was chuckling loudly, amused at the way she cowered before him. He was the master. Nobody could control him anymore,
he controlled somebody now, and it felt good. Really good. He slapped Jo hard across the face, she let out a squeak of pain and he started laughing even harder. XXX
"Jo! Are you okay? Jo, look at me!" She heard Meg's voice, but she couldn't see anything. She tried to speak, but it's like she didn't have control over her body. Then everything became quiet again and she got lost in her mind.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
Jo slowly opened her eyes, she was in her room on her bed, with Meg's head on her lap.
'Probably sleeping..' she thought.
Moving her shoulders and arms around felt really good, and the confused girl wondered how long she'd been out. All she wanted to do was get out of that fucking bed and run ten miles. Carefully lifting Meg's head off of her legs, she moved so her legs were hanging off the side. As soon as she stood, she fell down in a crumpled heap.
'My legs.. How long have I fucking been out?!'
Jo didn't want to wake Meg up, but what the hell was she supposed to do? She felt like an old person, needing help to even get up from the floor. Nudging Meg's side, she said,
"Hey, Meg! Wake up!"
Almost immediately Meg shot up.
"Jo! You're awake! Oh my god, you idiot! NEVER do that again!" Meg rambled as she threw her arms around Jo's neck.
"It's not like I wanted to enter into a coma.." Jo joked.
"Seriously though, what even happened?! I was in the kitchen with Amy and her new dog, and I heard you screaming! I ran to see if you were okay, but you were on the floor! It took you at least an hour to finally stopped screaming and then it was like you were lifeless! I had to watch you, not knowing whether you would live or die for a whole fucking week, and knowing there was NOTHING I could do for you!"
By this point, Meg was in tears, clinging onto Jo's neck for dear life.
"Sei.. she called a doctor, but he just said that there was nothing he could do!
He said you probably just passed out or something, he didn't even care that we were all in tears!"
"Shhh.. Meg, calm down. I'm here now, aren't I?" After saying this, I pulled away and wiped the tears off her cheeks. "It was probably just low blood sugar or something, no big deal." Jo tried to smile reassuringly at her so she'd drop the issue. She didn't want to talk about what she just had a.. vision of. Before Jo found Meg, she had lost her memory. She didn't know who she was, or where she was. She STILL didn't even know her real name!
Meg hesistantly nodded, still teary-eyed from the whole event.
"Okay, we might wanna go tell Sei and Amy you're not dead." Meg tried to joke,
laughing sadly.
"Okay, now come on, princess." The crimson eyed girl often used pet names for Meg when she was upset, they usually made her feel a little better. Helping Meg up,
they made their way into the kitchen. Sei was sitting on the sofa, worriedly texting away on her phone. She didn't even seem to realize anyone had come into the room.
"Hey Sei, why don't you whip up some food for me? I'm pretty hungry after my nap."
Sei frantically looked up, and when her eyes landed on Jo her worried face turned completely relieved. Practically jumping up from the couch, she ran over to smother her long term friend in a hug.
"Jo! You're awake! We were all so worried about you! I-I didn't know what to do, I spent hours talking to specialists and nobody could tell me anything! I wouldn't know what to do if something bad had happened to you!" Sei's screams eventually turned into mutters as she nuzzled into Jo's neck, so very happy that she was alright.
"What's all the... JO!" Amy walked in, completely dazed until she acknowledged Jo. "You.. You're alive! You aren't dead! I thought you were gonna die!" Amy yelled, running and jumping on Jo, arms around her neck and legs around her waist.
"Yeah, yeah, enough of the love and everything, it's sickening." Jo said,
laughing. Despite all the wonderful love and everything else, that still couldn't keep the worried thoughts at the back of Jo's mind.
"But seriously Sei, I'm starving."
"Just shut up and let me hug you for a minute, brat."
A/N: Awesome! I wrote this one pretty fast and I'm feeling good about it. You'll definitely get more of Jo's backstory and how Meg and Jo met eventually, and even more scary flashbacks. Some people don't like sort of... ya know, like rape in stories and stuff. Sorry if it offends you or anything.
