It had been 3 days since I and that guy got captured by a group of pedo knights in shining armor.
We, 12 kids around the age of 4 to 12 in stinky tattered clothes, had been forced to stay in a small wagon all the time throughout our journey, except for when some of us were taken to spend some time with the shit of a human.
We had to do everything in this no-roof wagon, eating, sleeping, or shiting. Under the sun or in the storm of rain, it did not matter to our captures. Three of the kids were already sick and one of them - I don't even know if she would survive the night.
Her name was Ella, the girl who was often taken into the woods with the captain. And from what the other kids were telling me, she was one of the bravest and brightest in the group. It didn't matter what they did to her, she always smiles and full of spirit, she even took the other kids' place when the solder became extra terrible. She was the light for the group.
Until she ran away - and got caught.
As her punishment, she was - she was raped and tortured for 2 days by the whole group in front of all the kids to make an example. She was never the same after that and really, who would?
Since I became the new member of the unfortunate children,I never saw her spoke and her face was always full of tears, that piece of shit taking her into the wood almost every night was not helping either.
Of course, the other did not exactly have it light. All the soldiers here were monsters, after all. Except for me and that guy, all kids had been touched, boys and girls.
"How are you? I hope you had a great stay with us" the captain said to me with a smug. This sick son of a bitch often teased me or the guy before the time of the wood because he couldn't have his way with us, he did this every night like a ritual.
I didn't say anything back, of course, my mouth was tied, remember? And it wasn'like I would have the guts to talk back to him anyway, that guy who had his mouth free the whole time didn't dare to say anything either. And also, yes, I had had no food or water for the past 3 days.
Wonder how I still alive? Me too! And I didn't even feel that tired!
"Too bad we could not show you our full hospitality as we did with our special little Ella" that sentence brought me back from my thoughts to this sad and fuck up reality.
He smiled, he knew I had heard about the tragic story of the failed escape attempt. He was the one who made the kids tell the story to every new members after all. He gave me a kiss on my forehead after seeing my frightened face.
"Good girl" he whispered in my ears with his sweet but disgusting voice before dragging an almost unconscious Ella into the wood.
And when he was done and finally put her back on the wagon, she was no longer breathing.
