I'm the darkest sunlight
~Jessica Katoff

I wake up to darkness.
Darkness and pain.
I'm frozen on the ground, unable to move. My eyes are wide as flashbacks resurface and burn into my mind.
Run Luna.
I quickly stand, disoriented because I cannot see. I stumble back a few steps and fall onto a hard surface.
A cot.
Feeling the outline, I can make out what the item is.
I softly touch my face.
I wince when my hand reaches my nose.
Broken. The impact from the air bag had caused it.
My whole body hurt from the collision.
But I don't dare make a sound.
But father.
Father.
Why had father done that?
I gag and quickly put my hand to my mouth, but the process only causes me to gag even more. It's no use. Without warning I'm throwing up- on the cot, ground, myself. I don't know.
And like I suspect, the sound has alerted my captor that I'm awake.
