Another

Deep in the woods, the summer sun scorching hot, as silent as the night movements can be seen in the other side of the woods, a girl of nineteen, enough to be five foot four tall could be seen running and peering at the river flowing in the distance.

Nadia came to a stop In Front of the water and squatted there, her breathing was heavy, she opened her mouth to breathe more comfortably, she's been on the run for two days now, and it's the afternoon of the second day, she was exhausted to say the least.

She was so confused about what had happened, and she was just starting to accept her new reality when she met those three men. She raised her head when she thought about those three men and vomited on the ground away from the sparkling bright eater reflecting the afternoon sun.

============================

Two week ago, after their car crashed, she saw herself dumped into a water with the body of her mom and brother, she stood up on a shaky legs and looked around, her whole body was in pain and she weak to the bones, she touched her mom's face and eyes sprang into her eyes, her face was pale and she was out cold, she really looked like a dead body, same was with her brother, except his body or perhaps his stomach was filled with disgusting flies, his intestines were out and she felt nauseous when looking at him.

His stomach was filled with maggots of some kinds feasting on his body and the decayed part, she didn't bother looking anymore even tho her eyes were filled with tears which she kept wiping to no avail. Looking around she realized two other people were missing, her sisters, Mimi and Genevieve couldn't be seen anywhere, Mimi might be fine all by herself but she worry for her seven year old sister, she doesn't even know much and she's still young, she wonder how she's doing and if she's still alive.

She walked towards their car for something to eat, she was hungry and thirsty but the only river nearby was housing the body of both her mom and her brother, she couldn't bear to drink it. She saw in her mom's bag a packet of chocolate and a bottle of water, even tho she water was almost finished and won't be able to sustain her she still drank it, satisfied a little she walked to the opposite side of where their car was if it could still be called that and planned to search for any house nearby then come back to bury the bodies somewhere.

After walking for what felt like hours she saw a light in the distance, it's nighttime already and every where was dark, but the light was shining like it came from a house, sighing in relief she ran in that direction and like fate was smiling down a her, it was a house, it looks small and dark with some paints that seems to be fading already, she approached it and prayed those that are in there are accommodating enough to allow her sleep or stay for for the night.

Nadia knocked on the door gently, she waited with a batted breath, she felt like it was ages before there was sound of movement inside and the door opened. She came face-to-face with a guy, seems to be in his late twenties but taller than her, he smiled down on her and she heaved a sigh of relief, he seems to be nice, that was her main thought.

"Hello, sorry, we had an accident and didn't know where to go, mind if I can be here for only tonight? I promise only tonight" she said hurriedly and didn't notice when tears started streaming down.

"Omg it's okey, come on in, are you alone?" the man asked his voice rough.

"Yes" she replied meekly..

The man guided her in, and she noticed another two face staring at her, she gave a shy smile before he told her to sit.

"It's okay, no need to be afraid" the other man said, he seems taller than the first one, and the last guy nodded he was the shortest but still taller than her.

They served her food and she ate obediently, after their dinner they guided her back to a room, it was small but she wasn't complaining in the position she's in currently.

"You can stay here and think of what to do when morning comes" the man said.

She muttered a thanks before going in and closing the door. Her sleep was neither comfortable nor peaceful. Waking up the next day she met them all in the dinning room like space.

"Thank you all for yesterday" she bowed to them planning on making her way out to fend for herself.

"If you don't have anywhere to stay, you can manage this place for now" one of them called to her.

"Hope I wouldn't be intruding?"

"Oh no, so far you don't cause any trouble and mind your self we're all good" the shortest one said and not in a so nice voice.

"Thank you" she said tears in her eyes again.

The rest of her days passed by in a blur, no one troubled her and always give her food, and after she eats she always goes into her room and nothing more. Until a few days later, she was sleeping as usual and the room was dark, she was deep into her sleep when she felt something on her thighs, it was a knife, she didn't know what to do, and she was slow to respond when she felt blood pool down her leg, raising her head she saw nothing but darkness, but she was sure there was someone holding the knife on her, she whimpered slightly and when she opened the door hurriedly nothing was there, but there was a large wound on her legs.

When he boys came back from God knows where, she showed it to them and they just shrugged it off, she sad nothing but was still wary, nothing went wrong after that, until three days prior to when she ran away, it was the afternoon and she was in the sitting room, looking down at the fire place, she was staring into nothing and when she felt a hand on her thighs again, she was scared because she thought it was what happened days ago until she saw the second man face, he gave her a smile which didn't reach his eyes.

"You have to pay for how you've been living off of us for the past two weeks" he said.

She wasn't interested in any of this, but the man was already tugging on her clothes, Like it couldn't get any worse the shorter guy joined in on it, breathing deeply, she knocked her head into his nose, him cradling his nose the shorter guy came forward and she raised her head and knead him in the groin, it doesn't look like it will affect him much, but she didn't spend much time and immediately ran out, she knew if she run off now they'll surely find and catch her soon, so she went on and hide in their dumpster, she's been here for a week and knows it'll take them two days to dump another thing so she planned to be there for today and run tomorrow.

=======================

She shake her head and proceeded to using the river water to wash off the dirt on her face, not before having drank some.

When she put her head back down she saw another person behind, but she was too slow to react as the woman have raised a shovel and hit it on her head, she felt an intense pain before her vision went dark.

"Another one to add to my collection" the woman said.

And that was the last thing she heard before she lost her consciousness completely.
