Eleanor's POV:
⚠️ Warning this scene that is written in italics has description of torture as well as mentions of a knife and blood⚠
"We meet again little one, did you really think you could escape. There's no point in running where ever you go we'll find you. You belong to me and I think it's time you get thought a lesson on behavior."
" Please please don't I promise not to do it again just please don't hurt me." But it was no use he just smirked evilly, grabbed a knife and started to drag it across my body.
" Stoooop it hurts please I beg you please." I scream and beg but nothing works he just keeps dragging the knife across my skin laughing at my misery, suddenly everything stops my screams his laughing and what was once a brown wall with with lots of blood and dirt is now white in fact in every direction I look it's all white no color can be seen.
Torture scene is over⚠
Then I hear a voice more like squealing, I look around and see a little girl around four or five years old running, I stand up and start following her when out of no where I'm in a sort of living room. I again see the little girl but this time she's running after two boys one looks to five or six while the other is between seven to eight. All three of them are laughing and look so carefree.
I stand there smiling knowing I can't be seen, when I hear a door opening. I look at the direction the sound came from and see a man with black hair and green almost like mine and very tall. He steps into the room and when the kids notice him the girl runs towards him while he picks her up, the two boys go hug his legs, all together they yell-.
Before I could catch the guys name I hear a voice "Eleanor, Eleanor wake up, you have to wake up and remember, remember who you are, remember, remember, remember, remember..."
---------------
I shoot up from my bed gasping, that was my third nightmare today and normally I would find it ordinary to wake up from this many nightmares and sometimes I'd have more. But for the last few weeks they've been really strange, for instance I'd be getting flashbacks of when I was kidnapped when out of nowhere I hear this voice telling me all sorts of things. First few times it was mum but then it slowly became a man's voice.
It's different every time but one thing I have noticed that the voices always say the word remember but I never found out or am being able to find out what it means. This one was different though cause I never ever had a dream always nightmares. And what's more confusing is the people I saw who I had no idea who they were. It's come to the point where I've even been thinking about it during the day. Hopefully I find the answers to this mystery soon because it is actually giving me a migraine.
The only good thing that sometimes come from the nightmares is that I wake up before my alarm rings, managing to finish my chores faster and sometimes miss my morning beating while arriving to school early.
Unfortunately today is not one of those days and little did she know it may consist of something she could never think of.
----------------------------
Right now I'm cooking breakfast for my parents, sorry I meant assholes. I'm hoping to finish quickly for a few reasons one I need to get to school, two to avoid the morning beating and last I really need to go buy some more painkillers because I'm almost out. My body feels like it's being stabbed by knives especially my back since all I have to sleep on is worn out mattress with the springs coming out in the attic.
I had already changed and finished all my other chores as well as now ready with their breakfast. I put their plates on the table, cleaned the counter which really isn't much either, and washing the dishes, I walk to the front door. I lean down to grab my bag when I feel a huge pain in my ribs. Biting my lips to stop myself from crying out in pain and blinking away the tears I grab my bag and start walking to school.
The school is pretty far away and leaving early only gives me just a few extra minutes and with all my injury's it hurts more but luckily I know how to drive, I got my license when I was sixteen. I walk down a few more houses until I see 'Flame' my bike. I grab the keys out of my bag, hop on and start up Flame hearing her roar to life, I push the bike with my legs on to the drive way and start driving to school.
Every time I finish school I park my bike a few houses down so no one sees or can find Flame especially my guardians, and when ever I need to use it I just walk down to where it's parked and drive where ever I need to go.
You see I am an underground fighter and racer. Which basically means I fight and race people for money illegally, I go buy the name 'Artemis' and everyone who knows me by that name is petrified of me and I can't say I don't like it. And I'm even great at using guns, knives and any other weapon out there.
My kidnappers first started teaching hand to hand combat when I was twelve or so years old and later on at 13 I was thought how to use guns and knives. Then after my escape and getting use the abuse I got from them I decided to keep on practicing and soon I became the best undefeated underground champion of London.
Me and Natalya own a big company which is focused on jewelry and dresses which is called 'Born to Shine'. And another company which focuses on child care which me and all of my friends take care off.
Unfortunately I arrived at school 'Lake Wood High' a hell hole to all mostly those who hate school. I park Flame and start walking towards the school entrance where me and my friends meet up every morning. I reach where my friends are waiting some patient and some not so much. Even though they're a pain in the ass sometimes they're the best I could ask for, the boys have known me since I was six and seven while me and Nat known each other since we were born.
"There you are, are you okay?" that was Natalya she has long brown hair while a mesmerizing blue confines underneath, pretty blue eyes and isn't short but not tall either. Nat's the Russian Mafia Princess and yes she knows about the abuse I go through at home. Her last name is Ivanov.
The boy's attention turns towards us as soon as they heard Nat talk looking at her in confusion. They look towards me and they're faces quickly change to worry. Especially Ben, you see his parents had gave him up for adoption when he was young for no reason and he's now living in an orphanage where all they do is abuse and treat the kids like trash. My friends and I hate the fact we can't help him much.
"Hey guys, good morning and yes Talya I'm fine, at least today I managed to miss the first beating of the day." I answer Nat's pending question, and Talya's another name we call Nat.
"Nightmares?" Elliot asks. Elliot is the introvert of the group he doesn't talk to others but with us he's always himself. Unfortunately him and James don't have it easy since there parents aren't really well off so him and JJ have to work as well just for them to pay the bills.
And you might ask about the money they make while working with me in my childcare company. Truth is there parents know and want them to use it for school.
I nod yes answering Elliot's question. You see for us this has become a schedule mostly for them. If I get to school on time or mention the fact I missed my morning beating, they figure out whether I got a beating or not.
They relax a little bit just a little knowing I may be able to survive a school day. I point my index finger towards the entrance asking silently if we should head inside. They nod in agreement and we start to walk, just before reaching inside I feel myself get pushed. I fall down biting my lip to stop the scream of pain so hard that it drew blood. Instinctively I clutch my ribs from pain and look up to see the bitch Ava, who thinks that she runs this school.
She wears the shortest shirts and skirts that ever existed and puts on an excessive amount of make-up , I'm not telling anyone how to dress like she can dress how comfortable she wants but her clothes don't cover everything. And some boys say that girls who don't even dare look there way are attention seekers. I mentally roll my eyes at how ridiculous others can get and grab Ben's that has been extending out towards me for a minute or so now.
He helps in pulling my body off of the floor; him and Elliot are looking at me with concern, while Nat, Oliver and JJ are glaring daggers at Ava and her minions. That reminds me I need to ask one of them for pain killers since I forgot to stop on the way to buy some. We each have a box of painkillers with us so just in-case one of us gets hurt the others have something to kill the pain. Unfortunately I ran out on the ones I had but I'll ask them for some later.
"Are you okay?" Ben asks his voice laced with concern. Before I could answer Ava speaks "I'm sure she's fine, I didn't even push her that hard she is probably doing it for attention and plus she was in my way."
Oli and Nat growl in anger being the most protective, James starts shaking in frustration, Ben's grip on my hand tightens probably refraining him self from punching her and Elliot looked calm but if you looked deep in his eyes you could see the rage flaming up inside.
"Or maybe you're just to blind to see what is right in-front of you because I'm sure animals have better sight than you." I say with an emotionless voice and my face the same.
Ava and her means glare at me for what I said but what can I say I was always told to tell the truth and I just felt like telling it to her. My friends smirk at my remark while Oliver speaks " How about you take your fake body and negativity somewhere else and leave us be."
The rest of us nod in agreement while Ava and her minions scoff and walk away as if nothing ever happened. Once they're no longer in sight the rest look at me in worry "Guys I'm fine it's not like I don't get worse but I wouldn't mind if someone gave me a painkiller or two because I'm all out."
Oliver quickly hands me two painkillers and I swallow them dry. "Are you sure we don't need to go to the nurses office or something?" JJ asks still concerned I respond "Yes Jame I'm sure now let's go grab our books and head to class before we're late."
I hear a chorus of yes's coming from them though still sounding unsure. We all head inside towards our lockers conveniently all next to each other. We all grab our books and head to first period.
While thinking about today's nightmare that was also a dream.
