LATER THAT NIGHT...
The night was bright from the moon's light. We were all wrapped up in our blankets cause the sun roof let in chilly night air. Everyone sat in front of the fire, talking, laughing, joking around. Like they didn't have a care at all in the world. Like this was just a regular camping trip out in the woods with friends and family, on a resort somewhere high up on a hill with no way down but to climb it. But yet, underneath the happiness, the laughter, the good-okay-times here, we all knew there was a bad ending rushing to the surface of our future. Did we ask for any of this madness!? No! So why are we here? All that time the Ramens helped us, we could;ve asked for some kind of hint or clue why the Bounty, us, were stuck here. Was it for something we've done in the past, are we innocently picked on, what?
I sometimes wonder if it'll matter if I, or we, make it out the Front Gate alive! Will people cheer for me in the long run, or will they just point and stare? Or will they even notice at all? What if the Front Gate turns out to be some kind of tunnel inside the underground sewer, and the only way out is to climb out amongst the busy streets? So many questions, so many 'WHAT IF'S' and so many answers that I dont have to answer those questions.
"Guys," I said and everyone looked at me, still giggeling and smiling from the previous conversation. "I'm gonna' call it in early. You guys stay up and have fun. Eat, whatever, I'm just stressed and tired." I got up, and walked to the room Jake and I calimed.
"Goodnight!" I heard them all say in unison as I pushed the stone door open and close it behind me.
I saw the fire cackeling by the far wall, and saw the wood piled at the other wall. I grabbed two logs, and threw them on the fire, which made a plunk! sound as they hit other wood. The fire got bigger, and brighter, just enough light to see in. I pulled off my stolen Ramen clothes, and slipped into the tank top and short shorts from the night before. And just as I finished, Jake walked in.
"Hey," He said, closing the door behind him.
"Hey," I grabbed the cover from him and threw it on the bed.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"Nothing," I found myself looking around the room, avoiding the 'I KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG, SO WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME!' eyes I knew Jake was wearing. But by force of habbit, I looked anyway, and the eyes I knew that were there stared back at me with concern.
"Don't tell me 'nothing'. I knew something's wrong, so tell me." See, I told you he was showing that through his eyes! "C'mon, what's wrong?"
We both sat on the bed, the fire crickeling and burning behind him. I sat there motionless for a minute or two, and he didn't press. Which is why Jake and I, for another reason of many, were friends. He let you find the time to talk. Even when we didn't. He always gave me space, even though he's right in front of me, and he let you talk without guessing. Or butting in. He let you finished until everything was out. I appreciate that, mostly, and he always has a way of drawing it out of me, the words I mean.
"I just," I took a breath in, exhaled, and inhaled again. "I just don't wanna' work so hard to the finish line, and get it ripped out from right underneath like a rug. I dont wanna' be taunted, by getting my hopes up, coming up to the Front Gate to find out that its all a trap. We were the hunted, who became the hunters, but still the hunted since we are Bounty and not Ramen, and I just dont wanna see our plan go down in the dumps."
"You know that's not gonna happen." Jake said, pushing a lose of strand hair away from my face. "And if it does, then we'll work a way through it. That's what were here for. To help eachother balancing when there's nothing to balance on."
"I'm just afraid." I admitted and he half smiled.
"I am too. We all are! But there's always gonna be times like these: where something is planned, it doesn't work, we try and try again." He then closed his eyes, thinking of something. "The Beastie Boys say you gotta' fight for you right to party, Chilli Peppers want you gotta' fight like a brave, Chuck Dee says fight the power! Were gonna fight the system. The system of always losing, were gonna push back until we win." He looked at me deeply, as if something was in my eyes he hadn't seen before. "Trust me."
"I do trust you," I said, looked at the stone wall and looked back at him. "But our lives haven't been exactly successful since we all got here."
"Shh..." He scooted closer, pushed the same strand of hair that fell back into its previous place. "Everything will be alright." His voice was now in a whisper. He moved in closer and breathed, "Stop worrying, and let everything fall into place." He then put his lips to mine, and then they were crushed together. For some reason, I just really wanted this kiss to not end.
Our lips departed, and he stared at me. Then he kissed me again, and I took off his shirt. I knew where this was going ever since he scooted closer, but I didn't mind it.
______________________________________________
I could see it. The light. And I could hear it. The cackeling. I could feel it. The heat pressing against our bodies. I could tell it was morning, cause there was a little crack of light---sun light, not fire light. There doesn't seem to be a difference, but there is...---seeping through our doors out line. Jake's arms were tightly around me, keeping me pressed to him. I was naked, as was he, and I started to feel uncomfertable just laying here nakedly without doing anything either pysical or non-physical.
So I waited about five minutes, then I slowly moved Jake's arm to my backside. I then rolled over, very slowly, inch by inch, trying not to wake him. And eventually I finally got to my feet, successfully! I looked around for my tank-top, bra, shorts, and underwear. I finally found them, and slipped into the underwear and shorts. I hooked on my bra, and put my arms into the shirt holes when I heard Jake wake up.
"Hey, come back to bed." He said, pushing the covers down a little bit to show his bare upper half of his body.
"Oh come on, Jake. I can't just lay around all day." I said, slipping the rest of the shirt on over my chest.
"Well why not?" He asked, proping himself on one arm.
"Cause, I don't wanna' be like them." I said and he chuckeled.
"Like who?" He asked, and I knew he knew, and he knew I knew he knew. But I guess he wanted me to say it out loud...so I did.
"I don't wanna' be like Rick and Zo who all the time!" I complained and he laughed this time. "Why are you laughing?"
"Cause," He said. "It's just funny."
"Well, I'm gonna go see if breakfast is ready. If so I'll bring you some in bed, otherwise I'll go take a bath." I walked towards the fire, threw four more logs onto it, watched the fire lick its way on it, and went towards the door. I looked at him, and he nodded. I then pushed open the door, pushed it closed, and walked towards the kitchen.
I looked around, and no one was here. I walked around the rooms, knocking on each door. No one answered. I finally came to the last door, and knocked. No answer. I walked through the huge circle of light pouring through the sun roof. I noticed the crawl space was pushed open, I crawled out and automatically heard the fun and laughter of everyone else. I got to my feet, eyes darting to the lake, but no one was there. I looked around, and I saw nothing. I then walked around the perimeter of the Cave, and found no one. I then thought it was my imagination, and they didn't hear me cause they were probably still asleep.
I walked back towards the Cave's entrance, and then it hit me: I looked at the sky to see...Dawn. I then laughed as I realized one of us forgot to plug the Cave back up, and that it was Dawn, so I crawled back in, plugged up the Cave, and went back towards the rooms' doors. I saw that each one had initials carved into them. The doors read...
This Room Belongs To:
S and S
Sam and Stan. I then moved to the next...
This Room Belongs To:
B and D
Bobby and Derek. They shared a room, but had seperate beds. And they were pushed to opposite sides of there room. I proceeded to the next...
This Room Belongs To:
R and Z
Rick and Zo. I'll have to wake them in a little bit. I went to the last room...
This Room Belongs To:
J and H
Our room. I pushed the door open, not wanting to wake anyone. I then saw Jake was sitting up. His legs were over the side of the bed, head in his hands. Thinking, obviously. The cover lay across his mid-section, and the fire cackeled. I sat next to him. I rested my hand on his knee.
"What are you thinking about?" I asked and he jumped a little bit. As if he didn't notice me there. But I knew he was.
"Oh, nothing." He watched the fire as if it was talking to him, or luring him to his freedom. "Why you ask?"
"Cause, it just seems that your kind of offish. I mean, in a good way, but you just seem sad." I answered.
"What would I be sad about?" He said and I shrugged.
"I don't know, I guess I'm just a little bit nervously paranoid." I got to my feet, pacing around the room.
"About?" He shifted his seating position where he had one leg under the other, proped up on one arm.
"The plan...our freedom...and us." I said and he sighed.
"Not this again, please, Hayley." He pleaded.
"I'm not gonna' start it again...it's just what I'm feeling right now." He grabbed my wrist as I walked another line in front of him. He pulled me onto his lap and just held me for a minute or two.
"You seriously need to just forget about that till we figure out when we use the plan. Live your life here...for now. As long as were together we'll be fi-"
"Aw," A voice peirced the air like an arrow thumping a target in the dead of night. "Isn't that sweet!?"
We both shot a look towards the door and Jake dropped me on the floor. I hit my back a little bit too hard. Jake got to his feet, swiping up his clothes and dashing behind the bed, cover still wrapped around his mid-section.
"Zo," I said. "You scared us."
"Oh, I know. Sorry. But I think you need to see something," She motioned her finger, beckoning me towards the door. I slowly got to my feet, and Jake stopped putting his clothes on. I held up my finger behind my back, telling him to wait, which he did. I followed Zo slowly into the kitchen, and I gasped.
Six neatly rowed chairs were placed into the middle of the room. Four were filled, two were empty. Everyone tied to them. Sam next to Stan, next to Bobby, next to Derek. I then looked at Zo, and she punched me, catching me off guard. I rubbed my cheek, and saw Rick entering the other room. I looked back at Zo who just let out a shrill cry of evil laughter. I growled and threw her into the rocky wall.
I ran into our room, "JAKE," I said. "GET DRESSED!" And he did without hesitation. He slipped on his boxers and pants just as Rick picked me up and threw me into the bedroom. I landed face first into the bed, bumping my head slightly on the rock wall.
"Rick?" Jake said and Rick laughed.
"It's me." He then charged Jake but then stopped as hands clapped back from the kitchen.
"ENOUGH!" A loud voice boomed, and I recognized it right when he spoke. It was the Ramen who talked to Jake about the room doors. The day I wondered what they were talking about! He walked passed our room, and looked at the others and laughed. "Wonderful." He then sauntered into our room, saw Rick, then Jake, who was slipping into his shirt, and saw me on the bed. He helped Zo up from the ground, coming back to her senses. "Rick, step aside and let the real people get a piece!" He grabbed me by the arms, and I let out a scream.
"Get your hands off her!" Jake grabbed at the Ramens arms, and the Ramen just headbutted Jake, and threw him to the ground.
"Take her, tie her up to the other chair!" He threw me to Rick and Zo who took me out of the room and into the kitchen. The last glimpse of Jake I saw, was a terrified face that was clearly showing upon his face. I was then thrown into the fifth chair on the right side of Sam, and they bound me to it in no time! All I could do was wait for the gagging, and hope that Jake will be okay.

(This part is in Jake's P.O.V.-Point Of View-Enjoy!)
I watched as Hayley was dragged out of the room, and heard the Ramen's footsteps taking a few steps closer. I rose to my feet.
"So this is it, isn't it?" I said and the Ramen laughed.
"Looks like it!" He held out his hand but I looked away. "Call me Dean."
"Alright, Dean! What do you want?" I asked and he pointed at me.
"You!" He then took a step, but I rolled over the bed, and landed on the other side of the room. "Quick," Then he pushed me against the wall in a flash. "But I'm quicker!"
He let me go sighing heavily. "Don't worry, I wont kill you or your friends...yet! I just wanna' know some things first!" He was at the other end of the room now, and I inched towards the door every time his back was turned towards me.
"Which are?" I said, and he turned to face me.
"I wanna' know some things about you and your pals!" He took a few steps towards me and pulled the door closed. "Don't want anyone to hear us, that'd be rude!" He then pushed me towards the bed and I sat down, trying to cooperate with him. "Cooperating I see? Well, that's good!" He then threw a log on the fire, then dusted his hands off.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"I want to know some things about you!" He said and I laughed.
"Seriously?" I said and he nodded.
"Your very attractive, Jake, and I need you! Ever since that kiss..."
"Which you stole! I never lead you on or anything, you just sprung it upon me!" I said, and he smiled.
"Ever since that kiss," He went on. "I couldn't stop thinking about you. So I pleasured myself one night with the thought of you," I made a disgusted face. "And ever since then, also, I just knew that I need you to live!"
"Then I guess your gonna die! Cause you aren't getting me!" I argued and he grabbed my arms in a blink of the eye.
"Do you think so!? I think that I can make you! I can turn you, and make you my partner! Do you want that? Or do you want to be a good boy and shut up while the big person's talking?" I didn't say anything and he let me go. "That's what I thought."
"Just no promises!" I added and he chuckeled.
"Sassy," He then patted my head and I shook him off. "I like it. But back to the point, what's your name?"
"Jake." I said and he nodded.
"What would you do to me in bed?" Dean quickly asked.
"Excuse me!? I wouldn't even touch you, breath on you, let alone think about you in that way. And if I did, it would never happen cause we'd be forbidden!" He spat on the floor.
" ! Love is forever no matter what the age!" He boomed, and it echoed a little in the room.
"That's sick!" I snapped.
"That's life!" He snapped back.
"Not my life!" I said, and I got to my feet.
"Look at you, all in big brother's clothes!" Dean said.
"Just be ready for the punches and kicks, cause you got alot coming your way!" I threatened and he laughed.
"Is that so?"
"Hell yeah it is!" I said and he clapped his hands, removed his jaket, threw it on the fire and it lit at once. Then he looked at me.
"Alright then," He took three strides forward and was in front of me at once. "Give us a kiss."
I looked at him, and spun around with a back hand punch to his face. He laughed, then punched me in the jaw. I fell back a bit, wiping blood from my freshly cut lip. Then I ducked his next punch and kicked him in the stomach. He staggered back some, pressing against the door. He then used that as his offspring, and leaped towards me, tackeling me onto the bed. I was trying to squirm out of his grasp as he was holding me against my will ontop of me.
"Oh, keep squirming Jake, this is starting to feel good!" He said and I headbutted him, and pushed him off me. He tried to grab my foot as I jumped off the bed, but he missed by an inch. I landed next to the fire, and had an idea. I pushed five logs onto the fire, watching them go up in flames as Dean ran towards me. The fire grew bigger, and he was trying to push me into it, but I ducked out of his hold and he walked past the fire and into the wall. "I just want to love you!"
He then tackeled me again to the bed, this time holding my hands above my head, and keeping my feet from kicking. He then crushed his lips against mine, and I could feel that before one of us died he was gonna try to force me. I kept squirming, and he just let me, enjoying every movement I made underneath him.
"Like I said, starting to feel good." He pulled a pair of cuffs out of his back pocket and placed them to the side. He then punched me as hard as he could in the face, making me get a little bit blurry in the eyes. I was trying to picture everything, but then Dean got off me and came back with a pole that he drilled straight into the wall. He then bent the end up, making it into a chain holder. He sat back ontop of me as I tried to sit up, and he threw my arms behind my head again. Still wanting to force me. I looked at the door and saw it was closed. Darn! I thought. No chance of luck now!
Dean then grabbed the cuffs and cuffed my wrists together. He then placed the cuffs on the pole, and they started sliding forward...then they caught on the bent part. I was cuffed, a little woozy, and Dean was gonna' get lucky by force! Dean then got off me and walked through the door and into the kitchen, and I heard him say something, but all I could make out was: No interuptions, important business, and Jake needs a beating! I then realized that Dean's beating was sex, and started to squirm again as Dean entered, pulling the door shut as tight as he could.
He then got back ontop of me, and kissed me. He then took his lips away from mine and frowned. "Not enjoying this? Oh well," He then removed his shirt and ripped mine off. "Nice! Let's get this party going..." He then pulled down my pants, and the only think keeping me from nakedness were my boxers. Dean then pulled his down too, and he was already naked. No underwear underneath his pants. I shut my eyes, not wanting to see his naked body, and he pulled the cover from underneath me, wrapping himself up in it. "It's okay," He said. "I'm covered up...for now!" I opened my eyes to see my doom. He kissed me again, and I hoped that something would happen right then to interupt him from raping me. But I then noticed my luck was running out. "Brace youself," He said, flipping me over. "Cause here I come!"
"Oh no!" I said, and then he gagged me with a clean hanker-cheif from his pants pocket.
HELP! I cried, both in my mind and out loud. Please, help!
But nothing happened, and Dean kept on riding me, then put his hands on my boxers, getting ready to enter me. I realized that my fate was to be raped, and no one to save me.

I realized that through all the betrayal, the fighting, the gagging and the paranoia, I then realized that Rick and Zo forgot bind my feet together. And then, as I sat there and thought, I had a plan! Right by my right leg of the chair, there was a rock with a sharp edge that could break me free, distract the others after freeing Sam, then saving Jake from whatever was happening. I waited for Rick and Zo to walk out in front of us, backs turned, then I moved my foot over the rock, pressed on it hard, and dragged it towards me. It was now in front of me, and just as my feet covered it, Rick and Zo turned around to face us all.
"What?" Rick asked and they turned back around, whispering about something.
I knew that this was the only shot of freeing my hands, freeing Sam, and saving Jake from whatever. I only had one chance...and I had to be perfect on grabbing it! I then grabbed the rock with my feet, and raised it up behind me to my hands. I felt the sharp edge scrape my palm as I grabbed it wrong, and I clutched it in my hand. And just as my feet touched the ground, again, Rick and Zo turned around.
"What!?" Zo asked, then they turned back around, continuing on and on about there whispering arguement or agreement.
I didn't even think to think about what Rick and Zo were thinking about...all I was thinking about was the fact of not being seen, the betrayal they put on us, and the nervous risks between Jake and I. I put the sharp edge of the rock at the flat side of the rope, and began to move it up and down. The rope was wet, cause they lost all there "stolen" supplies in a river, so it was easier to cut with the rock. I was already through the first rope line. I then began on the second, just as I heard something bump into my room door. My head, and everyone elses-including Rick and Zo's-, flashed towards the door. Then I went back to cutting, and everyone went back to either whispering, or staring at the floor in tears.
I cut through the first three of five lines of rope, and I was almost done with the fourth just as I heard the door open. I held my breath, cutting still, but slowly. I watched as the Ramen walked out of the room and started clarifying what was happening.
"It's okay, Jake and I are perfectly fine. Please, no interuptions! I have some very important business to attend to." The Ramen said.
"You sure everything's fine?" Zo asked.
"Everything is just fine! It's just that Jake needs a beating!" The Ramen nodded, and walked back into the room, closing the door with a little bit too loud bump!
Rick and Zo went back to whispering, and this made me carve faster then ever. I was surprised no one heard it. I then cut through the last line of rope, and started on Sam who seated right behind me. I noticed her rope was soaked, so soaked it was dripping wet. Good for me, bad for them! I cut through her rope faster then mind, and I then realized everyone's feet were untied.
"Go, Sam, go!" I hissed and she threw the gag off of her and onto the ground.
She then charged Rick and Zo, and tackeled Zo to the ground, clawing at her face. Rick was occupied with Sam, which gave me the green light to save Sam. I ran to my door, and kicked it open. It went to the side with a bam, and I saw the Ramen ontop of Jake. Jake was in handcuffs, his arms above his head. They were on a pole, the tip of it bent that way his hands didn't slide off. I noticed that the Ramen was naked and wrapped up in our bed. I then saw a half naked Jake, and got the wiggins* and fury at the same time. I then saw the Ramen pulling down Jake's boxers, and that's when he turned and saw me.
"It's okay," The Ramen said. "It'll be quick and painless." The Ramen then pulled Jake to him, and I heard Jake cry out in pain. I did what any stupid girl would do: I charged the Ramen. Full of anger, disgust, and hatred. Along the line of betrayal and sadness that I didn't make it in her in time. The Ramen then looked at me, and I leaped towards him.

We were the hunted, who became the hunters, but still the hunted since we are Bounty and not Ramen, and I just dont wanna see our plan go down in the dumps."
"You know that's not gonna happen." Jake said, pushing a lose of strand hair away from my face. "And if it does, then we'll work a way through it. That's what were here for. To help eachother balancing when there's nothing to balance on."
"I'm just afraid." I admitted and he half smiled.

"I do trust you," I said, looked at the stone wall and looked back at him. "But our lives haven't been exactly successful since we all got here."

"Well why not?" He asked, proping himself on one arm.
"Cause, I don't wanna' be like them." I said and he chuckeled.
"Like who?" He asked, and I knew he knew, and he knew I knew he knew. But I guess he wanted me to say it out loud...so I did.
"I don't wanna' be like Rick and Zo who all the time!" I complained and he laughed this time. "Why are you laughing?"
"Cause," He said. "It's just funny."
"Well, I'm gonna go see if breakfast is ready. If so I'll bring you some in bed, otherwise I'll go take a bath."

I got to my feet, eyes darting to the lake, but no one was there. I looked around, and I saw nothing. I then walked around the perimeter of the Cave, and found no one. I then thought it was my imagination, and they didn't hear me cause they were probably still asleep.
I walked back towards the Cave's entrance, and then it hit me: I looked at the sky to see...Dawn. I then laughed as I realized one of us forgot to plug the Cave back up, and that it was Dawn, so I crawled back in, plugged up the Cave, and went back towards the rooms' doors. I saw that each one had initials carved into them. The doors read...
This Room Belongs To:
S and S
Sam and Stan. I then moved to the next...
This Room Belongs To:
B and D
Bobby and Derek. They shared a room, but had seperate beds. And they were pushed to opposite sides of there room. I proceeded to the next...
This Room Belongs To:
R and Z
Rick and Zo. I'll have to wake them in a little bit. I went to the last room...
This Room Belongs To:
J and H
Our room. I pushed the door open, not wanting to wake anyone. I then saw Jake was sitting up. His legs were over the side of the bed, head in his hands. Thinking, obviously. The cover lay across his mid-section, and the fire cackeled. I sat next to him. I rested my hand on his knee.
"What are you thinking about?" I asked and he jumped a little bit. As if he didn't notice me there. But I knew he was.
"Oh, nothing." He watched the fire as if it was talking to him, or luring him to his freedom. "Why you ask?"
"Cause, it just seems that your kind of offish. I mean, in a good way, but you just seem sad." I answered.
"What would I be sad about?" He said and I shrugged.
"I don't know, I guess I'm just a little bit nervously paranoid." I got to my feet, pacing around the room.
"About?" He shifted his seating position where he had one leg under the other, proped up on one arm.
"The plan...our freedom...and us." I said and he sighed.
"Not this again, please, Hayley." He pleaded.
"I'm not gonna' start it again...it's just what I'm feeling right now." He grabbed my wrist as I walked another line in front of him. He pulled me onto his lap and just held me for a minute or two.
"You seriously need to just forget about that till we figure out when we use the plan. Live your life here...for now. As long as were together we'll be fi-"
"Aw," A voice peirced the air like an arrow thumping a target in the dead of night. "Isn't that sweet!?"
We both shot a look towards the door and Jake dropped me on the floor. I hit my back a little bit too hard. Jake got to his feet, swiping up his clothes and dashing behind the bed, cover still wrapped around his mid-section.
"Zo," I said. "You scared us."
"Oh, I know. Sorry. But I think you need to see something," She motioned her finger, beckoning me towards the door. I slowly got to my feet, and Jake stopped putting his clothes on. I held up my finger behind my back, telling him to wait, which he did. I followed Zo slowly into the kitchen, and I gasped.
Six neatly rowed chairs were placed into the middle of the room. Four were filled, two were empty. Everyone tied to them. Sam next to Stan, next to Bobby, next to Derek. I then looked at Zo, and she punched me, catching me off guard. I rubbed my cheek, and saw Rick entering the other room. I looked back at Zo who just let out a shrill cry of evil laughter. I growled and threw her into the rocky wall.
I ran into our room, "JAKE," I said. "GET DRESSED!" And he did without hesitation. He slipped on his boxers and pants just as Rick picked me up and threw me into the bedroom. I landed face first into the bed, bumping my head slightly on the rock wall.
"Rick?" Jake said and Rick laughed.
"It's me." He then charged Jake but then stopped as hands clapped back from the kitchen.
"ENOUGH!" A loud voice boomed, and I recognized it right when he spoke. It was the Ramen who talked to Jake about the room doors. The day I wondered what they were talking about! He walked passed our room, and looked at the others and laughed. "Wonderful." He then sauntered into our room, saw Rick, then Jake, who was slipping into his shirt, and saw me on the bed. He helped Zo up from the ground, coming back to her senses. "Rick, step aside and let the real people get a piece!" He grabbed me by the arms, and I let out a scream.
"Get your hands off her!" Jake grabbed at the Ramens arms, and the Ramen just headbutted Jake, and threw him to the ground.
"Take her, tie her up to the other chair!" He threw me to Rick and Zo who took me out of the room and into the kitchen. The last glimpse of Jake I saw, was a terrified face that was clearly showing upon his face. I was then thrown into the fifth chair on the right side of Sam, and they bound me to it in no time! All I could do was wait for the gagging, and hope that Jake will be okay.

I watched as Hayley was dragged out of the room, and heard the Ramen's footsteps taking a few steps closer. I rose to my feet.
"So this is it, isn't it?" I said and the Ramen laughed.
"Looks like it!" He held out his hand but I looked away. "Call me Dean."
"Alright, Dean! What do you want?" I asked and he pointed at me.
"You!" He then took a step, but I rolled over the bed, and landed on the other side of the room. "Quick," Then he pushed me against the wall in a flash. "But I'm quicker!"
He let me go sighing heavily. "Don't worry, I wont kill you or your friends...yet! I just wanna' know some things first!" He was at the other end of the room now, and I inched towards the door every time his back was turned towards me.
"Which are?" I said, and he turned to face me.
"I wanna' know some things about you and your pals!" He took a few steps towards me and pulled the door closed. "Don't want anyone to hear us, that'd be rude!" He then pushed me towards the bed and I sat down, trying to cooperate with him. "Cooperating I see? Well, that's good!" He then threw a log on the fire, then dusted his hands off.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"I want to know some things about you!" He said and I laughed.
"Seriously?" I said and he nodded.
"Your very attractive, Jake, and I need you! Ever since that kiss..."
"Which you stole! I never lead you on or anything, you just sprung it upon me!" I said, and he smiled.
"Ever since that kiss," He went on. "I couldn't stop thinking about you. So I pleasured myself one night with the thought of you," I made a disgusted face. "And ever since then, also, I just knew that I need you to live!"
"Then I guess your gonna die! Cause you aren't getting me!" I argued and he grabbed my arms in a blink of the eye.
"Do you think so!? I think that I can make you! I can turn you, and make you my partner! Do you want that? Or do you want to be a good boy and shut up while the big person's talking?" I didn't say anything and he let me go. "That's what I thought."
"Just no promises!" I added and he chuckeled.
"Sassy," He then patted my head and I shook him off. "I like it. But back to the point, what's your name?"
"Jake." I said and he nodded.
"What would you do to me in bed?" Dean quickly asked.
"Excuse me!? I wouldn't even touch you, breath on you, let alone think about you in that way. And if I did, it would never happen cause we'd be forbidden!" He spat on the floor.
" ! Love is forever no matter what the age!" He boomed, and it echoed a little in the room.
"That's sick!" I snapped.
"That's life!" He snapped back.
"Not my life!" I said, and I got to my feet.
"Look at you, all in big brother's clothes!" Dean said.
"Just be ready for the punches and kicks, cause you got alot coming your way!" I threatened and he laughed.
"Is that so?"
"Hell yeah it is!" I said and he clapped his hands, removed his jaket, threw it on the fire and it lit at once. Then he looked at me.
"Alright then," He took three strides forward and was in front of me at once. "Give us a kiss."
I looked at him, and spun around with a back hand punch to his face. He laughed, then punched me in the jaw. I fell back a bit, wiping blood from my freshly cut lip. Then I ducked his next punch and kicked him in the stomach. He staggered back some, pressing against the door. He then used that as his offspring, and leaped towards me, tackeling me onto the bed. I was trying to squirm out of his grasp as he was holding me against my will ontop of me.
"Oh, keep squirming Jake, this is starting to feel good!" He said and I headbutted him, and pushed him off me. He tried to grab my foot as I jumped off the bed, but he missed by an inch. I landed next to the fire, and had an idea. I pushed five logs onto the fire, watching them go up in flames as Dean ran towards me. The fire grew bigger, and he was trying to push me into it, but I ducked out of his hold and he walked past the fire and into the wall. "I just want to love you!"
He then tackeled me again to the bed, this time holding my hands above my head, and keeping my feet from kicking. He then crushed his lips against mine, and I could feel that before one of us died he was gonna try to force me. I kept squirming, and he just let me, enjoying every movement I made underneath him.
"Like I said, starting to feel good." He pulled a pair of cuffs out of his back pocket and placed them to the side. He then punched me as hard as he could in the face, making me get a little bit blurry in the eyes. I was trying to picture everything, but then Dean got off me and came back with a pole that he drilled straight into the wall. He then bent the end up, making it into a chain holder. He sat back ontop of me as I tried to sit up, and he threw my arms behind my head again. Still wanting to force me. I looked at the door and saw it was closed. Darn! I thought. No chance of luck now!
Dean then grabbed the cuffs and cuffed my wrists together. He then placed the cuffs on the pole, and they started sliding forward...then they caught on the bent part. I was cuffed, a little woozy, and Dean was gonna' get lucky by force! Dean then got off me and walked through the door and into the kitchen, and I heard him say something, but all I could make out was: No interuptions, important business, and Jake needs a beating! I then realized that Dean's beating was sex, and started to squirm again as Dean entered, pulling the door shut as tight as he could.
He then got back ontop of me, and kissed me. He then took his lips away from mine and frowned. "Not enjoying this? Oh well," He then removed his shirt and ripped mine off. "Nice! Let's get this party going..." He then pulled down my pants, and the only think keeping me from nakedness were my boxers. Dean then pulled his down too, and he was already naked. No underwear underneath his pants. I shut my eyes, not wanting to see his naked body, and he pulled the cover from underneath me, wrapping himself up in it. "It's okay," He said. "I'm covered up...for now!" I opened my eyes to see my doom. He kissed me again, and I hoped that something would happen right then to interupt him from raping me. But I then noticed my luck was running out. "Brace youself," He said, flipping me over. "Cause here I come!"
"Oh no!" I said, and then he gagged me with a clean hanker-cheif from his pants pocket.
HELP! I cried, both in my mind and out loud. Please, help!
But nothing happened, and Dean kept on riding me, then put his hands on my boxers, getting ready to enter me. I realized that my fate was to be raped, and no one to save me.

I realized that through all the betrayal, the fighting, the gagging and the paranoia, I then realized that Rick and Zo forgot bind my feet together. And then, as I sat there and thought, I had a plan! Right by my right leg of the chair, there was a rock with a sharp edge that could break me free, distract the others after freeing Sam, then saving Jake from whatever was happening. I waited for Rick and Zo to walk out in front of us, backs turned, then I moved my foot over the rock, pressed on it hard, and dragged it towards me. It was now in front of me, and just as my feet covered it, Rick and Zo turned around to face us all.
"What?" Rick asked and they turned back around, whispering about something.
I knew that this was the only shot of freeing my hands, freeing Sam, and saving Jake from whatever. I only had one chance...and I had to be perfect on grabbing it! I then grabbed the rock with my feet, and raised it up behind me to my hands. I felt the sharp edge scrape my palm as I grabbed it wrong, and I clutched it in my hand. And just as my feet touched the ground, again, Rick and Zo turned around.
"What!?" Zo asked, then they turned back around, continuing on and on about there whispering arguement or agreement.
I didn't even think to think about what Rick and Zo were thinking about...all I was thinking about was the fact of not being seen, the betrayal they put on us, and the nervous risks between Jake and I. I put the sharp edge of the rock at the flat side of the rope, and began to move it up and down. The rope was wet, cause they lost all there "stolen" supplies in a river, so it was easier to cut with the rock. I was already through the first rope line. I then began on the second, just as I heard something bump into my room door. My head, and everyone elses-including Rick and Zo's-, flashed towards the door. Then I went back to cutting, and everyone went back to either whispering, or staring at the floor in tears.
I cut through the first three of five lines of rope, and I was almost done with the fourth just as I heard the door open. I held my breath, cutting still, but slowly. I watched as the Ramen walked out of the room and started clarifying what was happening.
"It's okay, Jake and I are perfectly fine. Please, no interuptions! I have some very important business to attend to." The Ramen said.
"You sure everything's fine?" Zo asked.
"Everything is just fine! It's just that Jake needs a beating!" The Ramen nodded, and walked back into the room, closing the door with a little bit too loud bump!
Rick and Zo went back to whispering, and this made me carve faster then ever. I was surprised no one heard it. I then cut through the last line of rope, and started on Sam who seated right behind me. I noticed her rope was soaked, so soaked it was dripping wet. Good for me, bad for them! I cut through her rope faster then mind, and I then realized everyone's feet were untied.
"Go, Sam, go!" I hissed and she threw the gag off of her and onto the ground.
She then charged Rick and Zo, and tackeled Zo to the ground, clawing at her face. Rick was occupied with Sam, which gave me the green light to save Sam. I ran to my door, and kicked it open. It went to the side with a bam, and I saw the Ramen ontop of Jake. Jake was in handcuffs, his arms above his head. They were on a pole, the tip of it bent that way his hands didn't slide off. I noticed that the Ramen was naked and wrapped up in our bed. I then saw a half naked Jake, and got the wiggins* and fury at the same time. I then saw the Ramen pulling down Jake's boxers, and that's when he turned and saw me.
"It's okay," The Ramen said. "It'll be quick and painless." The Ramen then pulled Jake to him, and I heard Jake cry out in pain. I did what any stupid girl would do: I charged the Ramen. Full of anger, disgust, and hatred. Along the line of betrayal and sadness that I didn't make it in her in time. The Ramen then looked at me, and I leaped towards him.
