4-All Wet And Gagged

Clementine:

"Give me my bag," I demanded, stepping back and away while they kept coming at me.

This bag was all that was sent with me. I didn't want to lose it. I didn't care about the clothes, but there were some things that reminded me of the family I once had.

"Do you guys know her?" the girl in pink asked, checking her nails and shifting her weight to one leg.

"She's the one who fucking got me kicked off the sports team by telling everyone I was using drugs," Troy hissed, but then the corner of his lips twitched upward into a smirk. He looked so handsome yet so nasty the way he was approaching me.

"Well, you shouldn't have used drugs then," I shrugged, getting in trouble because of my foul mouth yet again.

Troy slapped the back of my head, but thankfully, I had tied the hat so well that it wouldn't come off that easily.

"Ouch! That is not very gentleman-like. A man should never hit a woman, no matter the circumstances," the girl complained, watching Troy leave his fingerprints on my neck.

"Riv, does she look like a lady to you?" Troy quickly moved to her side and wrapped his arm around her shoulders, pulling her closer to his chest.

She looked me up and down and then, with a snicker, shook her head.

"No, we would never treat you this way because you're not her. No one can ever be a soul-sucking—energy-sucking—stank-ass Clementine," Haiden said, making me clench my jaw at the way he was dangling my bag in the air. Yorick noticed and came at me, making my back hit the wall. The three of them looked like giants with broad shoulders and strong hands. Seeing them come at me all at once was terrifying.

"Of course you'd never treat her that way. You all found a good toy to fuck and keep your dicks wet and full," I hissed, remembering there will be no women or parties where they can enjoy the taste of a woman after we are sent to the North. I heard that after fighting monsters, the dorm mates would get crazy and look for ways to get steam off their bodies.

And of course, Riv seemed so well put together that anyone would want to fuck her.

As soon as she frowned and pulled his arm away after hearing my comment, Troy stepped forward and slapped the side of my head, leaving my ear ringing.

The bell ringing for dinner broke the tension. Thank goddess I could get out of here and away from them. I planned to talk to the academy headmaster to ask for different roommates.

They all shared one last look before Troy grabbed my head and Haiden took off his socks. All the while Yorick grabbed my arms to stop me from fighting back but the silent struggle continued. I watched Haiden ball one of his socks up and start to shove it into my mouth.

I had no idea what they were planning, but his damn wet sock made me gag. Then they wrapped Riv's scarf around my mouth so I couldn't spit it out and tied my hands behind my back. I struggled the whole time, but they overpowered me. They didn't even care they were manhandling me in the worst way. Then, they dragged me to the bathroom and tied me under the shower.

"You won't be getting any food tonight. You'll be going out to the ruins all hungry and weak," Troy hissed, turning on the shower over my head. The three of them gave each other a high five and left the bathroom.

"Are you sure she'll be fine in there?" I heard Riv ask them, but I couldn't hear what they said in response.

I stayed under the shower for a few minutes and then fell asleep. It wouldn't be the first time I had fallen asleep in water. My stepmother used to waterboard me all the time, and then she'd leave me tied in a tub, where I'd eventually drift off.

But I woke up when the water stopped hitting my head. I opened my eyes and lifted my head to see a Lurker standing in front of me with a grim look in is eyes. He looked unimpressed. He removed the gag from my mouth and untied my hands.

"I'm just not very likable," I said once he pointed at the door.

"Now? Where are we going? And am I not allowed to change my clothes first?" I asked, but instead of responding, he just grabbed my arm and pushed me toward the door.

"Damn it, I'm all wet," I complained, walking ahead of him. Once out of the room, I realized all the rooms had been emptied. It was already nighttime.

"Are you taking me to the last ruins?" I couldn't believe the trial was already here. I was sleep-deprived, soaking wet, and starving.

Fuck all my exes.

The Lurker threw me into the back of a truck where others were already sitting. A few trucks had already left, and I'm guessing the assholes rode those. After a while, we were knocked out with a sleeping gas and soon we had all drifted to slumber.

I started to wake up to the noises around me. We were dumped into ditches together as roommates, with weapons lying in the corner. I was the first one to wake up since sleeping pills hardly ever affected me for too long.

Loud howls echoed in the distance, waking up the others too. I was still rubbing my eyes when I saw the assholes stand up.

"Everyone, we have to make it to the end of the grounds and stand behind our flag," Troy said, making me look around at everyone's faces. I had no clue what they were talking about.

"Was this something discussed at the lunch table?" I asked, watching them all turn to me. It was like every time I spoke, I ruined their mood.

When I should've been the one mad at them, they made me skip the tutorial.

"She's our roommate?"

However, a familiar yet distant voice from the corner hit me like a stab in the chest. As he stepped into view, I saw the last roommate—the one whose bed had been left empty—standing and staring right at me.

"Shit," I cursed under my breath while looking at the silent guy, the one who fucking thinks I betrayed him.

Ian from the cage.

I was really deep in the ditch.
