Elizabeth Pov
Henry runs into my room and grabs my arm pulling me out my bed. I was laying there just reading a book, all the books where barely together but as long as I could read the words it was fine. We were still the only people around. Papa was still trying to figure how to use our blood to make others, he started kidnapping kids but they all would die. He made sure to kidnap them from orphanages, kids that had no one so no one would question their disappearance.
Henry and I ran into the hall and down to the room where we would hang the most. Papa likes to call it the rainbow room like ok you painted the wall rainbow so creative.
"close your eyes" Henry smiled softly as I closed my eyes. He opened the door and guided me in while I still had my eyes shut. I giggled
"what are you doing?"
"ok so I talked to Papa and...open your eyes" I opened my eyes "happy birthday Liz"
"Paints, I can try painting!" I loved drawing I was getting really good; I mentioned a couple times to Henry that I always wanted to paint "wait but what did he want?" I always knew there was a price with that evil man.
"don't worry ok, you deserve this." As he said that my heart skipped a beat. I had such a dumb little crush on him, I didn't care if he was 16. He was my best friend, not like there was the choice he was the only person around besides the bad men and Papa.
The next day I woke up in my room and left it to see Henry, but he wasn't in his room. It was weird he would always get up and wake me up like I would do if I was up first. I roamed the halls until I saw him in a room. I peeked through the window and saw Henry strapped to a chair. They were taking so much of his blood. He was doing this for me. For paints? I started tearing up covering my mouth to silent the weeps that came out my mouth. I hid as they approached the door. I saw two guards drag his barely conscious body back to his room. Once they left, I ran in and kneeled down next to him.
"you dumb, dumb idiot" I wrapped my arms around him as he tried to sit up. I helped him to his bed then hit his arm softly. "come on you almost died from blood lose for paints" I hit his arm again and again and again crying hard. I couldn't contain myself. "you can't just leave me here alone you idiot" he grabbed my wrist before I hit him again. I kept crying staring into his eyes.
"I would do anything for you, and you know that" He smiled weakly.
3 years later - age 16
The numbers went as high as 9, I wasn't aloud to see the poor souls my father had kidnapped from their families, I could hear them from my room, I wish I could hang with them, with someone besides Henry, Papa said I had to call him Peter instead of Henry or 001. Ever since the experiments were working, he hid us both from the rest, different names, Identities, I didn't know why, I was known as Lydia instead of Elizabeth or 000 didn't matter though, no one knew I was here besides Henry. He got to see the kids; he was a guard. Always in that dumb white outfit. His main job was to watch the kids and throw food at me.
I sat reading a book when I saw the flap on my door open. I smiled knowing who was on the other side. I grabbed the tray putting it aside then put my hand through the flap holding his hand. "missing you everyday" I whispered softly just so only he could hear. They disabled my camera in my room, really showing no one cared.
"trust me Lizzie I am finding a way to get us both out, but all eyes are on me its hard. Damn I wish I could hold you" He rubbed his thumb over my knuckles all I could think was how I was so lucky he couldn't see how red I was right now. "I hate him so much" his soft voice went to an angry, a frustrated one. "he can't do this to you" then he pulled his hand away. I could hear footsteps; Papa I always knew his footsteps from the rest.
In the middle of the night my door flew open. Two guards grabbed me and dragged me to another room as I screamed and tried to get loose. "what's going on?" I felt nauseous and scared. No one has entered my room in almost a year did papa catch us holding hands? I was thrown in a room, I look up to see Papa standing there.
"I am very disappointed in you Lydia."
"Elizabeth" I said under my breathe. Papa came closer to me.
"what was that?" He said stern
"my name is Elizabeth you psycho" I spat in his face instantly regretting it.
"do you even know your little boyfriend who he was before coming here?"
"his not my boyfriend and all he said was his family was murdered and he fell in a coma." I was confused why he was bringing this up then he threw at me newspaper clippings. I picked them up and read them.
VICTOR CREEL ARESSTED FOR TRIPLE HOMICIDE
VICTOR CREEL MURDERS FAMILY
VICTOR CREEL CLAIMS DEMON KILLED FAMILY
I stared at Papa confused "yeah he mentioned something about his father so what?" I kept looking at the articles
HENRY CREEL DIES IN COMA
I looked at it, running my finger over Henrys name then I rip the articles up and throw them at him. "what is this what are you trying to show me?" Papa smirks
"why don't you ask him"
"TELL ME!" I yelled at Papa using my powers to force him to tell me what I heard next made my heart sink, I knew he couldn't lie when I used my powers.
"He killed his family; he is the demon" he handed another article saying how his mother and sister had broken bones and how their eyes had exploded. I held it in my hands watching my tears fall onto the paper.
"no, he didn't he couldn't hurt anyone" then Papa walked up to me and slapped me.
"never use your powers on me" he nodded at the guards, and they put the collar on me. I kneeled and begged.
"Please Papa don't do this please" I cried hard, but he didn't care, he never cared about me. He turned it up really high and pressed a button sending a shock through the collar. I laid on the floor screaming. "IM SORRY IM SORRY PLEASE" I wept through the screams of pain.
After a while they dragged me into my room and left me there to cry on the floor. I could barely feel my body.
Henry Pov
I walked up to Lizzie's room to give her food like I always did I slipped the tray through waiting for her to grab it, but she didn't. Maybe she slept in I thought. I peaked through the flap when I noticed she was on the floor I dropped the tray and got the door open using my key. I ran over to her and held her close. "Lizzie what happened?" I could feel her trembling.
"did you kill your family?" Lizzie said through her tears. I was stun how did she know.
"who told you?" I put my hands threw her hair and kissed her forehead trying to comfort her.
"Papa" she says softly
"you know he lies"
"I used my powers, he didn't lie" she looked up at me. Her eyes where so puffy then I noticed her neck was purple and red. I softly touched the bruising.
"did he hurt you again?" it hurt so much seeing her like this. She nodded. I sighed and told her everything. "my mum knew I had these powers she called Brenner to get me help I couldn't let that happen I had to take her out, I tried to take my father out and my sister, I got my sister but some reason he lived I was weak and fell into a coma. I woke up here" I held Lizzies hands looking into her eyes. "they wanted to hurt me they wanted me taken away I had no choice" She looked into my eyes, and I saw her coming closer than she kissed me. Her lips felt soft against mine. She pulled away then whispered in my ear.
"I want him dead" I have never heard her so angry so cold, to be honest it was a turn on. I caressed her cheek.
"before we escape, I will make sure he isn't breathing, I will make sure he dies I will do anything for you" I kiss her deeply, I feel her wrap her arms around my neck. At that moment I didn't care if we were caught and hurt, I just wanted her. I pushed the door close and locked it while still making out with her. "you are so hot when you talk about killing Papa" I continue kissing her hard. She smirks into the kiss. "you sure you want this?" I ask as I lay her onto her bed. She nods smirking at me, then we did it. She felt amazing under me. Honestly was the best day of my life. I love her so much and I'm glad she felt the same.
