TRIGGER WARNING!
This Chapter contained depiction of sexual harassment, sexual assault and pedophilia.
My eyes were wide opened as I felt my head throbbing, and groaned in pain. With a strong, metallic smell lingering in the air, I reached my arms to cover my nose and mouth, to no avail. I tried stretching out my limbs, but I found both my arms and legs bound tightly with a rope.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgWtPG8eHW
My hair almost touched the blood-stained stone ground as I pushed myself upwards, hoping I could reach for my pocket knife. Despite a sharp pain in both my shoulders and back, I ignored it, only to let myself hung upside down. Where am I? I caught my breath. What is this place?513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UgifKbihv
"Bugsy, is that you?" Nat called out to me. I turned to my right and noticed him, who was also going through the same fate as me. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HrjQXZO68
"Nat," I breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness we're here. Do you know where we are?"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPimMOx9os
"Judging by the stench, I think we're in a slaughterhouse."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmYZrNTMdb
My eyes widened as I heard a shocking statement from him. We're being tied up like a cow in a slaughterhouse? This is bad. This is really, really bad. Are they trying to eat us up or something? I hope not. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw14GVlVsx1
"Bugs, are you alright?" he asked, noticing a silence from me. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0v73Tz6tPf
"We need to get out of here," I answered him. "Where's Cass?"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkdKBRoaHG
The blue-haired boy gestured to his right, making me squint my eyes. "Uh, I don't think I can see her."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpi1Nb73EB
"Well, I can, apparently."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzHIL63GrA
I rolled my eyes at his sarcastic comments. "Whatever, is she alright? Is she still alive or is she dead?" 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubNUeRLc50
"Unfortunately, she's still alive, but she's unconscious, again."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyW3kVm6E7
"Shit! Looks like we have to carry her by ourselves. What about Gatsby? Is he alright?"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyCLWraTO2
He lifted his shoulders. "For some reason, I couldn't even find him at all. I even repeated his name many times, but he did not answer me, so I guess he's probably somewhere, if he's even alive in the first place"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7gxsoJdab
Okay, this sounds bad. "Alright then, we must get out of here before-"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNvHTSWKIn
The metal door suddenly burst open, revealing a tall figure, who face was covered in a mask that had stitches all over it, which reminded of the mask that the villain wore in Texas Chainsaw Massacre. That movie kept me awake at night, no matter how many times I watched it on VCR. The material of the mask looked like human skin that they peeled off from their victims, with dried blood residue on the surface, making me avoid his ice blue eyes.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqUzNOIzw2
Wearing a gray apron and rubber gloves that had bloodstains, he gave me a deadly stare as he looked closer at my face, feeling my cheeks with his fingers. "You look skinnier than our pigs in the barn," he spoke in a deep voice. "I always thought a human girl would be much bigger than the folks here."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1oeCxjDCd
"I can't gain weight, no matter how much I ate," I sneered, as I felt him touching my hair.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtn9Y73zgQ2
"You have nice hair, though. It's a shame that your kind have a strong scent, though we could take care of that."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAg8UDwMeH
He moved behind me and squeezed both my rear, much to my dismay. "Your hips are much better than my wife. Perhaps I should keep you around instead of killing you. I'm sure you will bring me a lot of beautiful children."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡss3cHvVZIz
Okay, what did he say to me? I could bring him beautiful babies? In his little dreams. He's too old for me, and he is creepy as fuck. Does he know that I'm still a minor? Then again, I'm already an adult in The Faerie Kingdom. Maybe being an adult is not what I expected it to be.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVtEJb8nu5
"You're just too beautiful to be slaughtered," he joked, as he untied the ropes around my feet, making me land on my head. "I hope my wife is alright with having a bride much younger and prettier than her." 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU432OZv1C
"I already have a boyfriend back home," I hissed in pain as he grabbed me by my tunic, making me stand on both feet. "Besides, I'm not even a virgin to begin with anyways."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9fFykDf5I
"What is virginity anyways? He bellowed, caressing my chin. "In The Faerie Kingdom, we're free to sleep with anyone we desire, even when you have a husband or wife by your side."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNGLJmAJ6E
Looks like my lies backfired.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsl0bF3Ghnh
Both of my legs felt wobbly as he poked me from behind with a knife, forcing me to stagger as I walked past Nat, who had his worried gaze fixed on me. "Don't worry," I mouthed quietly, making sure he doesn't hear me. "I'll try to get us both out of here."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6a7cejUobY
He gave a nod as he watched me climb the stairs, with the masked man pointing a knife at me. I felt sweat pouring from my forehead as I twisted the doorknob, which led me to the kitchen. Another masked figure, who was a woman, glanced at me as she was chopping a piece of meat on the chopping board with a knife in her hand. "Is this the human girl that you bragged about?"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlh8UMQ3xM2
"Of course, my love. Isn't she lovely?"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFqUC4xXXF
"We'll have to fatten her up if we're going to serve her for dinner," she jabbed her finger on my ribs, pushing me slightly backwards. "Otherwise, the meat would be too lean."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRclIcHzYJ
"Of course, my darling wife," he smiled, noticing him crossing his fingers behind his back, before turning to me and slapped my rear really hard, making me yelp in pain. "Keep moving, sweetie. We don't have all day."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nk2CFc0aN
What the fuck is he doing to me? I'm not his property. I'm a human being, with complex thoughts and emotions. Geez, is it that hard to comprehend? Why do men have to be creepy towards young girls like me, and why do I have to be surrounded by cannibals? Oh, God. Please spare me. Amen513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9HeUoUS3T
I gulped as I was led out of the kitchen and passed by a bunch of children playing with their toys, wearing the exact same mask as the other two. "Who is that, daddy?" one of the boy asked.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx82W6eeCdK
"Our next meal," he winked at his children, making me gulp. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2yoJiz40G
I squinted at the sunlight shining from above when I was hit again by the man, gesturing me to move faster. I had to comply with his orders for now as I paced myself towards the farmhouse. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiA0Zh1PFv
From the outside, the farmhouse was painted in red and the windowpanes were white, just like the ones back in Slaborough, but when I went inside, that's when my eyes widened in surprise. Instead of hay piled on the floor, it was a bare, wooden floor, filled with large cages, which were big enough to fit a person inside. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7x5xDoo03
"You'll be sleeping here, darling," he pointed at a cage, as he unlocked it. "Once I'm finished with my wife, you will have the entire house all to yourself but for now, you'll just have to be more patient."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SgP0jMlOQ
Unlocking the black grille, he squeezed me inside the cage and locked them tightly, hanging the keys on a nail. "Don't try to escape, or I will come for ya."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNR5D6G3Ce
Before he walked away, he cut the lights in the barn and closed the large door, leaving me all alone in the dark. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFrFbrTqT4
With a ray of sun penetrating through the windows, I felt my breathing heightened as I looked at the surrounding cages. Oh God, what are they going to do with me? I have a bad feeling about this family. I have to find my friends and get out of this place before something bad happens.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeS4AqI7onj
Okay, okay, what did Mr Smith tell you when you found yourself kidnapped by someone? Come on, Bugsy. Think. You were there when the Scout Master explained everything about escaping from the kidnapper. Think, Bugsy, think! You're smarter than this!513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2MtgRjrCB
I scanned the entire barn with both of my eyes, and noticed a stair that led to the top of the barn. Hearing the chicken clucking upstairs, I focused on the keys on the wall, which were unreachable for me to grab. Pretty clever, actually. Well, I'll have to unlock myself out of this cage in this case. I can't be sitting here for too long anyways.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFwvOczowd
Grabbing the padlock that was clamped outside my cage, I grabbed my hairpin and stripped off the rubber knob at the end with my mouth, spitting out on the floor. Bending it into a U-shape, I inserted them into the lock, bending it slightly. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqmntesCYY
I stick the pin out of the lock and twist in into a loop, inserting it inside the lock. Okay, you can do this, Bugsy. You've done this before during Scouts Activity. You even earned a badge for picking a lock from Mr Smith. You're smarter than this, Bugsy. You know it, don't you?513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5to0NujqKD
Taking a deep breath, I pushed the pin inside, only to slip from my fingertips. "Fuck," I cussed, as I wiped my sweaty hands on my tunic, before rubbing them together. Okay, you can do this, Bugsy! You can do this!513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMMIuRa0so
I pushed them inside and turned the pin to the left, only to hear a grinding sound. Crap, that's the wrong lock, Bugsy!513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04if0Kr4cY
Breathing in and out, I turned the pin the other way and a lever inside, unlocking the padlock from the cage. I sighed in relief and smiled to myself as I slowly opened my cage, avoiding it from squeaking in the barn.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7w1YFvhgx6
Feeling both of my legs numb, I rubbed them with my arms as I left my cage, tiptoeing towards the upper level. Fortunately, the stairs wasn't creaky and old, so I managed to stay quiet the whole time, praying that the masked family doesn't come in at any moment, especially now. I don't want them to ruin my plan of escape.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GNcxADusY
The upstairs of the barn was different from down here, with hay everywhere and chickens in their cages, their eggs stacked into a triangle. I could use them, I told myself, as I took a couple of eggs with me, placing them inside the pocket of my tunic. Then, I turned the tap and let the water flow into my mouth, quenching my thirst. I felt a bit of relief as I turned them off, wiping my mouth. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcC6GjEVXjE
Tying my hair with a blue ribbon that was on my wrist, I took a peek outside the back window and noticed a large tree, prompting me to climb out. Landing on top of the tree branches, I managed to get down from the tree undetected and sneaked through the back of a horse cart, hiding underneath a long rag, which had rifles inside. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7SDzvxuif
With the gunpowder lying all over me, I opened the weapon and loaded them with both my arms,putting a few bags inside my pocket, Sergeant A'tynn did not teach me how to use a rifle yet but I have to try them out myself, since those asshats stole my pistol and knife. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJfYhpp9AU
Before I could walk away, I heard the front door of the house burst open, prompting me to put the rifle down and hi myself underneath a rag, suppressing my breath. Please don't find me, please don't find me! Oh Lord, please protect me from all sorts of evil against me. Amen.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RiqSMHqPj
I closed my eyes for a few minutes and continued to hold my chest, before hearing the door shut from afar. As quick as lightning, I took the rifle and rushed out of the cart. I headed towards the back door, only to find myself in the kitchen, with the masked woman inside. She gave me a death glare as she stopped chopping meat on her board, slowly approaching me. Oops, looks like I picked the wrong time!513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsGHM10Rgy
"You brat!" she screamed at me, as she charged at me with the same knife in her hands. Pulling the trigger of the rifle, I aimed at her face, pushing her on the ground. I kicked the basement door with my foot and locked it tightly, hearing the woman pounding her fist against the metal surface. I ran back to Nat and Cassie, who were still hanging upside down. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc0WrqGzYm
"Bugsy," he called me. "Thank goodness you're here."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO71cI1KvQb
"Don't thank me yet," I said, as I placed my rifle down and grabbed a knife on the butcher table, cutting off the rope from Nat and Cass. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oKZjEKRVQ
As Nat got up, he hefted Cass on his shoulders and chanted in his mother tongue, opening the small window. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cMKslryp8
"Can we even fit in?" I asked, as Nat climbed on the table. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOcm5NabjE
"We'll try," he replied. "Now come on, you go first."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSkM8AUgOM
Looks like I don't have any other choices then. Squeezing myself through the rectangular hole, I managed to climb out, only to be grabbed by the masked man by the arm. "Let me go, you fuckface!" I shrieked through my lungs.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvVEig0AlT
"Oh, you're not going anywhere, little missy," he glared, pointing his rifle at my face. "You will get back inside that cage and stay there until my wife let me take you in as my bride."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisuGR8tNJf
"No, you will not and also, you are an ugly piece of shit!"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWPZbmT75n
Before he could shoot, I grabbed an egg from my pocket and let it stuck to the nose of the rifle, making his weapon explode. As he collapsed, I crawled towards the small window and pulled Cassie out of it, along with Nat, but he was pulled back inside by his wife. "Bugsy, help me! I'm being grabbed by a crazy old lady."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteJYgg1dC4
"You're not going anywhere, you brats!" the woman's voice boomed. "I will put all of you on my dinner plate, whether you like it or not!"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuScyzCp9lK
Didn't I shot her in the face moments ago? Faeries do have a strong resistance against gunpowder. It'll take a few shots to kill a faerie.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaU5ldUlAg
"You're not taking my friends," I stood up and yanked his arms even harder, forcing the woman to release him. Landing on top of me, he squirmed as he got up, dusting off his tunic in disgust.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRHNhC4ynG
"Oh, you humans are stinky!" he gagged, carrying his sister. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHg9Dwiwkp
I took a whiff of my armpits and squirmed. Okay, looks like I'm heading for a shower right after this is all over! Besides, I've been stuck in that slaughterhouse for God knows how long.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2l3NQX5VE
"Whatever, Nat. We need to find Gatsby and Maria. I have a feeling they're still here."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTr6q5g1yo
Naey ruoto mutosne quetat," he chanted, teleporting all three of in a bedroom, which was inside the house. We turned to Gatsby and Maria, who were both tied up together on the bed. "Took you long enough," the young woman snarked, as we untied them. "I was stuck with this young man who somehow don't even know how to escape."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtPLhHKC53
"I'm sorry, okay?" Gatsby raised both of his hands in the air. "I tried my best as the Knight of Moon."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLOdtqYbMP
Maria rolled her eyes as she looked at me in a peculiar way. "I didn't know they hired humans now."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnEKIPRNqM
"I guess so," I shrugged, offering my hands. "I'm Bugsy, by the way."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaJ0YkWSnv
"You're the first human I've ever met, Bugsy," she shook my hands. "It's nice to meet you."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEGPv320R9
She's even more beautiful than her photograph on the front page of the newspaper. She kinda reminds of Aunt Inara back home. No matter how old she gets, both Maria and Aunt Inara seemed to maintain their alluring and youthful beauty. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNo5uUU9Jy
"Alright, you two had made acquaintance, now can we please go before those crazies get to us?"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4sDeVqVhz
We nodded as we unlocked the bedroom door, only to find ourselves in a dark corridor, with faint echoes and giggling surrounding us. Holding each other closer, we walked downstairs to the living room and headed towards the door, only to be stabbed from behind. "This place is creeping me out," I remarked.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpeLD2C93E
"Yeah," Maria nodded. "That's why we need to get out of this place as fast as possible, yeah?513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3fQ4KMlKR
Before we stepped outside, I yelped in pain as I turned around and found myself face-to-face with a masked child, who laughed manically. I pushed him forward as another kid pounced from the bookshelf, pointing a knife at my face. Loading my rifle in my hand, I fired at the chest and got up, rubbing my stab wound on my back. Definitely did not see that coming.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNl36hVLnN
Dragging me out of the house frantically, Nat led us to the stable and hopped onto a brown horse, but the masked man grabbed him by the neck, making his face turn blue. "Crap, let me go!"513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlDGs1qyle
"You're not going anywhere with my new bride," he growled like a wild animal.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rN7z8Gff8
"First of all, I am not your bride and secondly, let go of my friend!" I said, as loaded my rifle and fired a shot at him, prompting him to drop on the ground. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNmfPE1Kz4
Letting go of Nat, he finally caught his breath and sat behind me as we rode ourselves out of the crazy family's farm.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72qxDHzUU1
"Finally, we're out of that crazy family," Gatsby cheered, hugging us from behind.513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoIlJFYN5i
"Thank goodness indeed," Maria chuckled along. "Now I can finally get back home in peace."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWsq0vjxQY
"That's great to hear, Maria," I smiled at her. "But this isn't over yet."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCg7itSTwME
"What do you mean, Bugsy?" Nat asked, raising his eyebrows. 513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrEEgp4nsv
"As long as that family is still alive, they will continue to kidnap unlucky victims and devour them like wild animals. We must let the Sarge know about this so that he can bring them to justice."513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHcQ3PQx9E
"I understand, Bugs and we've got your back, no matter what."
