The last punch that Michael was about to give was quickly taken aback as he froze from his position. All four of them entered the room as Michael slowly stood up and turned to look at them. One of them dashed towards me and grabbed me on my jaw.
"What did just happened?" the man asked through gritted teeth.
"H-he was trying to rape me." I said, pointing at the man on the floor who now sat, wiping the blood from his busted lips with the back of his hand.
The two of them grabbed Michael on both arms. "Wait.. I-"
He was not able to finish the words he was about to say when a palm hit my cheek. Pain flooded my senses as I fell on the floor, the impact knocking my vision into a dark state along with a deafening whistle in my ear along with its massive impact.
"No!" Michael screamed across the room as he tried to break free from their tight hold.
Tears streamed down my cheeks, feeling numb at the sudden impact. But it seemed like he was not contented with just a slap, the furious masked man grabbed a hold of my hair and dragged me across the room in front of Michael who was still struggling against the grip of the two man beside him. The man crouched beside me as his grip on my hair got tighter.
"You want me to kill her in front of you?" he asked Michael with a deadly glare.
"No. no, please don't." Michael said shaking his head abruptly. "Please don't hurt her."
The man roughly shoved me into the floor, my head hitting the floor once again. I tasted my own blood as I ran my tongue across what felt like a cut on my lip. "I'm sure you don't want to see her in pain don't you?" He asked.
"Please don't hurt her." Michael begged. His voice was a bit shaking, filled with fear and anger.
The monster laughed at us, clearly enjoying the scenes in front of him. What a demon. They were all demons for all I know.
He walked towards Michael, who was still struggling against the grip of the two men beside him. "I'll kill you." He said behind his mask, voice filled with threat.
After his threat, he wasted to time and gave Michael a massive right hook on his stomach. Michael grunted, crouched in pain, but those men refused to let go of his arms. He gave him another hook, then a punch on his face. And another.. and another..
"Ooh, I'll never get tired of this." The monster said, along with a mocking laugh.
I placed my palms flat on the floor, trying my best to push myself up on the floor. The ugly rapist still was staring at me; I could still feel the lust over his gaze. The alcohol in his veins really pushed him to accomplish his desire. Slowly, he stood up from the floor.
"Michael.." I muttered. All I wanted to do right now was to help him.
I managed to push myself up and stand, pulling my feet to take a step closer to him. My sight started to blur as I felt nauseous, but I didn't stop. I saw Michael looking at me, as he took each punch; blood flowing from his nose. I made another step towards him, but an arm grabbed my waist and pulled me.
"Where do you think you're going honey?" the monster said from behind me, pulling me closer into his body.
I gasped, eyes widened as I cried. "No.. please let me go!" I screamed, only to let out just a whimper.
His hands traveled on my body; touching my skin, feeling every part of me. His hand reached unto my chest, running his palm across my breast while the other ran down to my private part.
"Like it honey? You like it?" The monster whispered through my hair.
I squirmed in his grasp as I tried to break free. "Let go of me, please!" I cried out.
He laughed. "I just got started."
The man in front of him stopped abruptly, turning his head to where Michael was facing. He walked towards us and I closed my eyes, scared of what was going to happen. But to my surprise, he grabbed the wrist of the monster behind me.
"Don't you think you've done enough?" I saw his furious wide eyes behind his mask. "Let her go."
"Won't you just let me enjoy this?" the monster said, sniffing my hair. "You can do the same after me." he continued, smirking at his friend.
The man pushed me to the side and grabbed him in his collar. "You've caused a lot of mistakes Brian."
So his name was Brian. Why was he calling him by his name?
I glanced back at Michael, who was now free from those men. He slowly crawled towards me, the other men were not noticing us as their attention was focused on the two monsters arguing about their mistakes.
"What? You hurt them, that's breaking the rule. YOU broke the rule!" Brian said, pointing his finger at the other.
"And who the hell told you to get drunk, remove your mask and try to rape her!" the man in mask said, as he pushed Brian. "You knew very well that we're just waiting for their ransom, you idiot!"
The other three of them rushed to the man's side, trying to stop the heating argument.
"So what are you going to do now genius?" Brian mocked.
"What am I going to do?" the man said, pulling a gun out from the back of his jeans. "I'm going to kill you dumbass."
My eyes widened at the sudden twist of events. A loud sound of a gunshot echoed through the silence, making the birds chirp as they flew. Brian got killed. He fell on the floor, blood rushing from the hole on his forehead.
"What are you doing!"
"Man, why did you kill him!"
Yelling and screaming filled my ears as tears continued to roll down my cheeks. What the hell just happened?
**Michael's POV**
My heart was drumming rapidly against my chest as I stared at those men arguing, blaming, and cursing against each other. My eye shifted between the open door, those men in masks and Brian on the floor. I got his keys, but where was it? I must've dropped it somewhere. I looked back from where I am earlier, and there it was. Its silver colored metal shined across the room. I didn't waste any time. I crawled across the room and grabbed it, not giving a damn care about how every part of me hurts. I needed to get us out of here.
Her eyes were a mix of fear and confusion as she stared at me.
I quickly wrapped my arms around her. "We'll escape Andria. Run as fast as you can." I whispered against her cheeks.
"What?"
I didn't respond. I just pulled her hand and lead the way out of the open door....
